When we were expecting 2017's E3 there was heat in the air, they were going to show a new console, generations discussion aside, X is a new console, in this intergenerations paradigm but a new console, there were a few announcements and it seemed obvious that they had to rock with developements for the X. But they only showed the f*cking Forza Motorsport 7.
When One was announced the failure was obvious. That policies, Kinect, power, size, price... All-in to fail, but even that, they sold pretty enough because of the 360 good times, but not near to their Wii-style console sells expectations, and they were just pushing the console in that fitful way of PC temporarily exclusives as Ryse or Dead Rising 3 (and above, were flops). I ever defended that Xbox was making more productions than PlayStation, and when Spencer came I even defended making new games don't takes a few days.
But after all that, comes and goes, that last descent into hell of their image with all-in with their games to PC, Scalebound cancellation, and knowing that they're still making lots of money with royalties, I swear to god that I hardly can understand the lineup for this year. Them were plenty possibilities, from Halo 3 Anniveresary, going through PGR5 (remembering 360 good times and instead of FM7 knowing that FM6 sales were not very good), bring Conker again (that bait in the first seconds of Super Lucky's Tale E3 trailer were fucking painful), Perfect Dark, Fable 4 (they had a lot of awesome work made with Legends), Halo or Gears spin-off, or something new for God's love. In fact when first Gears of War (1) images where shown with that gray scenarios, people was especulating if it was going to be a survival horror game, and then that fake about a Halo horror game that matched the relationship between Xbox and Creative Assembly, who made Alien Isolation, and matching too that Halo 5 arts set after Halo 5s campaign where the Chief is alone.
But
absolutely
fucking
nothing.
The fucking Forza Motorsport 7. And Voodoo Vince and Phantom Dust remasters, DON'T MESS WITH ME.
I guess this rage is coming because I'm a tech lover, I love powerful consoles, I didn't care about PS4 because it wasn't much more powerful than One and not much expensive PCs where more capable, with Pro I was more interested, and even more with PSVR, now X looks really awesome... But I feel absolutely fooled where the only prediction/wish I had for the E3 that has been accomplished is that there was going to be an edition with green details (Project Scorpio edition). It's near to literal that the only that remains of the Xbox name is... The name. Until today, or better until the last E3, there ever was a excuse to hope that things were going to change, but again I swear God that Scorpio Edition green against all the exposed before feels feels like retrieval.
PS: My english isn't very good so I'm sorry if some parts aren't well written. If you can't understand any of them I'll be charmed of trying to explain myself.
