According to Wikipedia, both PS3 and 360 had more than that in their first year (17/18 depending on region).

Wii U is currently at 11, by the way.

 

[AOC83]

No Xbox exclusives in the past 4-5 years?

Barely any and most of vthem were Shooters/Racers. No Genre diversity.

 

[RdN]

Just hope that they're not Xbox Live franchises.

 

[Hindle]

Don't rule out 3rd party games either. I can think of a few that MS could go after.

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

We'll see if this actually pans out. Somehow I think we'll see 15 announced, but only like 8 released.

 

[HueyFreeman]

Yeah i feel like people are glossing over this a bit - this was a nice announcement.

 

[KAL2006]

my thread got locked, but you know how I feel lol, Kinect!, XBLA games, exclusive TV shows. Basdically MS are kown to lack big internal devs and I doubt they will have many exclusives. SOny announced 4 exclusives at their event, MS unmannered 2. You casn already tell friom the start which will have more exclusives

 

[Marleyman]

Barely any and most of vthem were Shooters/Racers. No Genre diversity.

So if your audience gobbles up something you shouldn't offer them more of it? I mean, that is just business. If they don't have genre diversity with these exclusives then you have a point.

Please understand, please be excited.

 

[Snapshot King]

Microsoft will never please this forum; never.

Announce exclusives and a focus on 1st part content?

GAF - Kinect games and crap XBLA!

Telling me that they're focusing on first party content with lots of unnamed games that could be anything, oh yeah, that'll get me excited.

Why wouldn't it?

 

[Snapshot King]

Why wouldn't it?

You ever heard of the phrase "show, don't tell"?

 

[Canis lupus]

Just hope that they're not Xbox Live franchises.

Considering they want boxed games to sell along the sytem, I doubt it.

 

[Bgamer90]

And they showed only 2! How awesome!

This just further cements the rumors of Microsoft Studios being 6-8 months behind in development.

Or you know... shows that MS wants to save games for E3.

Man, it's unbelievable how many people who jump to conclusions here.

 

[KageMaru]

Hey look a positive Xbox one thread it's got the usual trolls. Seriously, if you're not interested in the exclusives for a system why not get out if you can't have a decent discussion over it?

On topic, the fact that they said they are opening up and investing more in 1st party development now than ever before gives me something to be happy about among all the crap that was shown in that reveal.

 

[Canis lupus]

Or you know... shows that MS wants to save games for E3.

Man, it's unbelievable how many people who jump to conclusions here.

They should've saved CoD for E3 and show more inhouse stuff today.

 

[Arzehn]

I wonder if they're counting Xbox/PC games as exclusive. As in console exclusive.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

3 of those new "franchises" will be Kinect based sports title - Kinect Soccer, Kinect Football and Kinect Tennis. A fourth will be Kinect Winter Sports, possibly Kinect X-Treme Sports or something.

I don't think it's far fetched to think this.

I am genuinely intrigued on what those 15 games will be though. A good, original RPG game would be nice.

 

[Hindle]

They've definatly got 3rd party and second party games as exclusives IMO.

 

[Miles X]

So much fail.

Yes, its pretty sad.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

So, it's Halo 5, Halo 6, Halo 7, generic fps 1, generic fps 2, generic fps 3, so on so forth.

 

[friskykillface]

perfect Dark zero
Jet force gemini
banjo kazooie
conker


Rare is gonna make a come back B^)

nah i only expect perfect dark to be one of those 15

 

[Knoxcore]

This and Quantum Break is the only good things to come out of the event. It says to me games are a part of the console...we just didn't see them.

How much of these are Kinect only is going to be interesting.

 

[El_Chino]

So, it's Halo 5, Halo 6, Halo 7, generic fps 1, generic fps 2, generic fps 3, so on so forth.

LOL let's completely ignore Quantum Break though.

 

[dorkimoe]

kameo 2 please!

i hope they arent counting kinect kid games as exclusives

 

[Servbot24]

This was the only good part of the conference. Unfortunately it occupied a single slide, but more will come at E3.

 

[Surface of Me]

So, it's Halo 5, Halo 6, Halo 7, generic fps 1, generic fps 2, generic fps 3, so on so forth.

Finishing out the Halo 4 trilogy and starting a new one in one year, bold move by MS.

Learn2read.

 

[oVerde]

Let's count:

1. Halo
2. Gears
3. Forza
4. Fable
5. Alan Wake
6. Dance Central
7. Kinect Sports

 

[FordGTGuy]

That´s because they never try (in the last 4-5 years).

So, it's Halo 5, Halo 6, Halo 7, generic fps 1, generic fps 2, generic fps 3, so on so forth.

Guys don't feed these troll.

Barely any and most of vthem were Shooters/Racers. No Genre diversity.

How are you not banned?

 

[Azelover]

I wonder how long these games will be. And also how much they'll cost.

 

[Canis lupus]

So, it's Halo 5, Halo 6, Halo 7, generic fps 1, generic fps 2, generic fps 3, so on so forth.

All in 1 year? :/

 

[gryz]

if they had something good they would have shown it.

 

[Prine]

if they had something good they would have shown it.

You really think they'd show all their games with e3 around the corner?

 

[Zyae]

And they showed only 2! How awesome!

This just further cements the rumors of Microsoft Studios being 6-8 months behind in development.

Or they are just waiting for E3 like they said they were?

 

[H_Prestige]

Microsoft will never please this forum; never.

Announce exclusives and a focus on 1st part content?

GAF - Kinect games and crap XBLA!

Yes, clearly they nabbed exclusives on MGS, FF, RE, GTA, COD, and BF. In addition to their first party stuff like Halo and Forza.

Don't get your hopes up.

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

as i said in the conference reaction thread, they're sounding like early-PS3 sony (and like nintendo lately with wiiu) with this statement. it sounds like a promise so people won't worry.

 

[SniperHunter]

1.) Ryse
2.) Quantum Break
3.) Titan
4.) Black Rock's new IP
5.) Rare's game
6.) Epic's new IP
7.) ???
8.) ???

 

[jbug617]

Made it's own thread but Rare is bringing back a historic franchise at e3

[Cidd]

I see a lot of people setting themselves up for more disappointment lol, E3 is going to be glorious.

 

[Dany]

Why didn't they talk about them?

 

[Simply Sami]

PGR 5?

 

[Lokbob]

The real question is how many of these are kinect games.

 

[Omnistalgic]

Yes, its pretty sad.

the fook??! Did you watch the conference? The entire thing was making gaming out to be an almost secondary part of the console. Of course the knee-jerk reaction is going to be suspicious when they say they have 15 exclusives....None of them are announced or even hinted at, and it's following a reveal where most of the things interesting to hardcore gamers are either ignored or touched upon briefly. This isn't just GAF, every game site I've visited today has the same tone in the comments sections or from sites that aren't paid advertisements for companies.

Perhaps at E3 MS will show up some compelling exclusives, but this back lash is warranted. They completely shat on the hardcore community while Sony did almost the exact opposite.

PR speak or not, it's all about perception.

 

[gryz]

You really think they'd show all their games with e3 around the corner?

they are probably scrambling trying to get something into a presentable state by then.

 

[AstroNut325]

Or you know... shows that MS wants to save games for E3.

Man, it's unbelievable how many people who jump to conclusions here.

Yes because having the attention of gamers and the media all to yourself for a entire day is less ideal of a time to show off new games as oppose to a convention where there are many other games competing for interests.

 

[Rocky]

Rare will have some things, undoubtedly.

(But color me pessimistic.)

The only thing that will get me to buy an Xbox One at this point is if Rare is coming out with a proper Banjo-Kazooie sequel. Not like Nuts and Bolts, but like the first two.

 

[ZanzibarBreeze]

As Jeff Gerstmann pointed out some time ago, the money is on most of the new IPs being Kinect games.

 

[RoKKeR]

As Jeff Gerstmann pointed out some time ago, the money is on most of the new IPs being Kinect games.

Yeah, this is unfortunate.

 

[Ninja Moomin]

Yesterday MS promised 15 Exclusive Games in the first year of the console... 8 of which will be based on new IP.

We know about:

RYSE
Forza
Rare Franchise
Quantum Break

It's safe to assume a Halo will be in there (of some sort, even if it's not Halo 5...)

Titan - if the rumours are true - is another.

That leaves nine games we know nothing about...

Any rumours that hint at what these might turn out to be?
