  E3's big return sounds like it's more of a dud.
  
  In September 2022, the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) announced that E3 was returning. Not only was it returning, but it would be the show's first in-person event in four years.
  
  Now, we're learning that none of the three major console makers will have any sort of presence at the trade show. Sony and Nintendo not having a presence probably isn't too surprising. Those two companies had already started to do their...

  During their Developer Direct, Microsoft and Turn 10 Studios showed off a fresh look at the upcoming Forza Motorsport. This Xbox Series X|S and PC game promises to "deliver a generational leap in fidelity, immersion, and realism."
  
  Given that the last Forza Motorsport game, Forza Motorsport 7, came out literally one console generation back, I don't know if Turn 10 means that this...
