I couldn't think of a single game or feature that the new Xbox had going for it so far, but this one might be it. Fuck you Microsoft, fuck you.
well for selling new systems,exclusive games is the best way to go,Mirocost next even mith get filled with major exclusives as well,Sony PS4 event was weak in this front and were showing mostly multiplat games,exclusives might be the seller point about Microsoft next Xbox.

I'll be playing this game on my PS4....maybe in 2-3 years but it will happen.
And does anyone else think this won't be a system seller? I mean yeah 360 owners usually prefer shooters (I do) but are people really expecting this to compete with COD/BF4/Gears/Halo?

Is there a PC version like other Microsoft third party exclusives (BioShock, Mass Effect)?
both available on ps3 now =3
I'll never doubt you again.i accept allllllllll youre appologies.
So will MS drop CoD before the ship sinks?? That's a good move imo. But Respawn has still to prove their worth.

Sony is going full Japan and Xbox going full Western 3rd party exclusives me thinks.
Looks like MS will be ruling the roost then.

A few thoughts:
- BIG coup for Microsoft.
- MS abandoning internal development in favor of third party exclusives is disappointing.
- always-online moves closer to reality.
- MS supposedly playing catch-up for launch is not good news.
They haven't abandoned internal development.
Doubt the COD kiddos will line up for this though. And its pretty damn likely they are going for that demographic.
Yeah, I wonder this too. Are those people really gonna care about anything without the CoD tag on it? I have a feeling this could turn out either way, if true.

So we have Assassin's Creed IV rumored to be always-online, Watch_Dogs rumored to be always-online, Destiny to be always-online, and now Respawn's new Durango exclusive always-online game.
If that doesn't scream some form of always-online adoption, I don't know what will.

"Creators of Call of Duty" + millions of dollars in advertising.Doubt the COD kiddos will line up for this though. And its pretty damn likely they are going for that demographic.

I don't see this doing much. Call of Duty remaining multi-platform is the bigger news.

Fully Japan? Like Activition/Blizzard exclusives full Japan?

Where did you get the bolded from?
You need a live subscription to play most likely as well, lol.
and will there be a monthly fee on top of that?
bring on may 21st and then E3. Even if this rumor is true i still don't really care, don't have xbl gold now, probably won't buy MS' new system because of it.

Not until I see it like this guy's bold prediction
---Bayonetta 2 uncancelled and now Wii U exclusive confirmed.
People expected Activision to give up COD sales?
People expect EA to give up Respawn's sales?

If there is, the article doesn't mention it. It's possible this whole thing is timed, the game is published by EA after all.
Respawn is under EA Partners. Left 4 Dead was published by EA Partners. It might not be timed.
Interesting. This game could move more units than Gears, and as many as several Sony exclusives combined.

I expect any possible console timed exclusivity to be so long that it doesn't really matter.
PC version is a question tho. It won't matter for the masses but it will be good for some gamers like me who plan at least for the moment to go with PS4 with some Durango exclusives appearing on PC too (namely I expect Alan Wake 2, no idea about this one or any of the rest).
It has begun.
Microsoft out of blood at the start.
Yea, but the real question is what other checks have they been writing. I expect quite a few.
They haven't abandoned internal development.
It's rumored in the article. Not that they've abandoned it completely (obviously) but that some projects have been canceled.

They really need to.
I will always get the PC version, because my PC will always be superior. What does the next Xbox offer me if all the exclusives are better on PC?
Nothing.
Not really, you aren't in the key demographic they want to attract.

The usual Microsoft move, can't make their own games so they buy exclusive rights to others.
they are making their own games.

Sounds right on. Had to be this or Fallout.

Right, it makes no sense to take an existing brand that's big on a ton of platforms and make it exclusive.
You do the reverse to get marketing support to launch a brand and then go from there.

Diablo is not exclusive and Destiny stuff is just some DLC. I mean games like Final Fantasy XV ect.

Excellent.

The article. All of them should be prefaced by "IF TRUE" but that goes without saying.
Love the return of 3rd party exclusives
Why? I'd rather play all the games without having to spend money on extra systems that I use once in a blue moon.

Hmm , I wonder if this means sony will try their best to make the PS4 the place to go for Destiny, in terms of exclusive DLC.
