Smart move honestly.It needed some more work too. I wonder if they moved it due to the holiday titles like CoD, Battflefront as well.

At least you can talk. Who are you?
Literally the only game I bought an Xbone for like three years ago.
Fuck.
Fuck.

I feel like the lack of a first party launch title or really any launch title in general will severely hurt the Xbox One X launch. Hope I'm wrong.

I think I'm gonna die from the shock of that surprise!
In one hand, this is terrible since this year will be super bad for xbox exclusives, specially considering that the x is coming in 2 months
In the other hand, the game looked super bland, some extra polishing could help it
Forza 7 is not enough? at this point is there crown jewel

They're trying to pinpoint the peak of open world fatigue to ensure they release the game at just the wrong time. Hardly an exact science. I'd guess the tea leaves turned up something new.

The best decision they could have made. It still may get cancelled.

Yikes. And this was the exclusive to be released alongside the Xbox One X as well.

Neither are exclusive.

Ahh, fuck it.
Ahh, fuck it.
I mean..... you joke.... but that game feels like Crackdown to me.

So just Forza and pirate's game for the OneX on a first party level for 2017? That's not good...

You rather they release the game in a shit state so you can play it and hate it rather than wait a little bit longer to *maybe* get a better experience?
It's just Forza and Super Luckys Tale (which looks good but...)
Wow, that really sucks. At least they said it now instead of a few weeks beforehand but still.
It was, and it was going to showcase what it could do with destructibility.
MS must not be happy at all.

Good lord...
Sea of Thieves is 2018.
The XBOX ONE X will launch with Forza and Shadow of Loot Boxes. What a monumental lineup.

No, Sea of Thieves is also 2018. Just Forza.

I'm all for delaying games if it needs it, but Christ they have been at this one 4 years already.

Ah true! I had forgotten that one. But it begs the question how much pull does a racing game have.

Jesus. Fucking ridiculous, and just impossible to justify at this point. I'll still play it when it hits - but it is genuinely startling how consistent Microsoft has gotten with this kind of shit.

They've literally got Forza 7 this year, right?
Having the first console version of PUBG is a pretty big deal, I guess.

I think this delay is another great way to show the destructability of the Xbox brand!

Wasn't this supposed to be the showcase game for the Xbox One X[box One X]?
