they all say that. obisian, ninja theory and so on. but its a good gig. unlimited funding good salaries and make whatever you want, not to mention the 20-30 million dollar payout. you have to be stupid to say no.
True. In the grand scheme of things, they won’t turn down a huge pay cheque. Money makes the world go round and round.

Not to flaim, but 14 is not much. They had the same last year and with all the indie titles included, you can already make the list for most games we already know.

Take the glasses off mate, not world premiers. This is Microsoft OWNED titles.

And with 14 to show off

Stuff like this never gets me hyped, it just normally means the show is padded with games I don't think are worth my time.

Just my opinion pls no hate.

Isn't it a bit early for the new studios to have something to show?
Even if most are smaller scope games, seems to be too soon, unless it's all teaser vids with little or no gameplay.
Hopefully after these new Halo and Gears they will give the IPs a break and focus on new AAA games for a while.
 
Doesn't bother me. If a game is good, then heck yes i want more of said game to be released. Microsoft doesn't get docked points by me for releasing games for their main franchises twice in one gen. In fact, that's what I prefer. I hate waiting on new Zelda and Metroid games. It's like pulling teeth hoping Nintendo will release a new one in any bearable amount of time. Halo, Forza, and Gears are all good games. They are Microsoft's bread and butter. It should surprise no one that MS continues to release them on a regular basis, just like Nintendo is always releasing mario and zelda games every gen.

Also, Halo 5 is the only mainline halo game we've gotten this gen, so really it's just one. Halo TMCC is a compliation of older games (happens to be my fav game this gen) and Halo Wars 2 is an RTS - a completely different genre.

Forza Horizon and Forza Motorsports are also different genres. One is a serious racing sim while the other more of an open-world arcade race game. Considering how long this gen has gone on, having 2 games released from a single franchise is not exactly overkill. Anyone that is complaining about a 3 year dev cycle for a game is just not a fan of games.

This gen started in 2013. We didn't get GoW 4 until 2016. Before that GoW 3 came out a distant 5 years before in 2011... and GoW 5 is going to come out at the end of 2019. A 3 year development cycle for a game is perfectly acceptable imo.

But no one seems to care that CoD comes out every year. In fact, I see a lot of excitement for each game. It's probably just because an xbox studio isn't behind the series...

Aside from the various jabs and the usual xbox victim mentality:

1) you dont need 3+ car games in one generation.
2) you forgot about gears judment
3) how many mainline zeldas does nintendo release every
generation? Kinda laughable to even compare it to gears.

Also halo anniversary2 kind of counts as a new game, thats why I mentioned it. It is not the same as a straight up gow3 port.

I havent played a cod since bops1, so I couldnt give less of a crap about that franchise.

Look all companies milk successful franchises. That’s... kinda good business sense. Sony do it. Nintendo do it. MS do it. Even mother fucking McDonalds do it.

Don’t like it? Stop buying it. Mean while let me fucking dream of a Dark Souls 4 eh?

I have a feeling some of these are going to be the multiplatform games we already know are in development like outer worlds. Microsoft first party title also on playstation and/or switch. And that's fine. This is the only reason I'm trying not to get too hyped about 14 titles being shown. Outside of that though I am super fucking mega hyped for e3 in general cause I love these shows period and especially when the next generation is right around the corner. I LOVE when new consoles are released. I'm almost 40 years old and have been in line for most console launches and I will game until I have arthritis and cant move my thumbs anymore (who am I kidding, thanks Microsoft for the adaptive controller!) Prople need to chill and just enjoy the shows for what they are, even if they arent your console maker of preference. It's all fun and industry progress.
 
Just waiting for the dust to settle so we can decide who wins the "I care the least about this announcement and proved it harder than anybody else in this thread" award.

As much as I dont like any of those, there have been 1 of each only, across this entire generation.
Compare it to forza (4 without counting horizon), gears(3) and halo (2).



Yeah, first party games from their studios, just like gears, halo and forza.
You make a Valid point. However Xbox One was on life support as far as games go and Forza seems like it was the most successful. Halo needed to take a break and now it's cross-gen / platform and is still only coming out next year or later. So it had a hefty gap. Gears doesn't really do anything for me, but does the POP figure game really count? I would say Gears 4 and 5 do, but not a mobile game.

Damn near everyone has, outside of salty haters that never want to see MS do anything well.

You take your preferred console to personal. Ppl are just going by past history as basis and we've seen tweets almost verbatim like this before to just be disappointed with what was shown. Given Xbox history with ips as of recently they do not get the benefit of the doubt.

However I am opened minded and look forward to them setting a new tone.

14 Xbox studios games :
- you can several games for a single studio
- you can have games already released which have DLC

So don't expect too much.
 
I fully expect a few of those games to be ones that are already out getting more content, etc. but that doesn't dampen my excitement at all. I always look forward to E3 and hope (although I'm not expecting) MS gives us a good look at next gen.

I didn't think last year's showing by MS was as great as most people. It was great that it was games non-stop but was missing the "wow" factor however that was understandable seeing as how it was too early to really say anything about next gen and they certainly are waiting till then for some big releases, mainly Halo.

Yeah erm... look I get it, neoGaf is very anti MS and pro Sony. I get it.

But... come on, eh? You guys do this all the time, with the shifting goal posts. MS has no studios... they buy them... now they are bad for buying studios. MS never shows games at E3... they show them... then they are bad for showing too many games not exclusive. MS has no exclusives... they announce they will be showing 14... and now you moan that they likely won’t interest you.

I get it. Some people have an unhealthy obsession to their plastic box. It’s the same with anything that has fans. I know football fans who refuse to believe any other team can do well.

But I have a question...

Why the fuck are you posting in these threads? Every single one of them that has anything positive about Xbox, there are people moaning about how it’s not enough, or it’s too late, or that MS don’t care because they have pc games or whatever the hell new excuse it is this week.

Like... come the fuck on, grow up, eh? PlayStation has great games and something to offer. Xbox has great games and something to offer. Just enjoy the damn spectacle and be excited for all the cool stuff about to drop real damn soon.

100%
I mean some people act like either console is toxic. If a game I really want to play release on a console I don’t own I buy that console. I won’t let my “pride” get in the way, cause only I lose then.

There's reason for that, and there's no shame to support good platform.

But... come on, eh? You guys do this all the time, with the shifting goal posts. MS has no studios... they buy them... now they are bad for buying studios.

did they say that they are exclussives?
they saying it's xbox games studios doesn't say xbox exclussives because it isn't, and probably will never be?
otherwise they would mention that and even then knowing ms likes to invent new terms who the hell knows what that even means.
i think people just tired of ms false statements, ms have tendency to hype up whatever they doing before e3, and after that usually sony comes with better conference.
how many of these 14 studios will be AAA games?
how many new ip?
is there new studio 150 -200+ devs they have that can pull it off system seller?
how early in development these games are?
how many end up on pc?

to become more popular they need to increase they hardcore fan base, not decrease, which they've been doing all this gen.

Like... come the fuck on, grow up, eh? PlayStation has great games and something to offer. Xbox has great games and something to offer. Just enjoy the damn spectacle and be excited for all the cool stuff about to drop real damn soon.

xbox have great games? what? they have something to offer indeed but that's not great games unless you're talking about multi's, which is irrevelent at this point, because every platform has great games, but ms has less of them, at this point only thing ms can do is recover from blunder they did this gen.

signs that your beloved company become anti consumer & corporate idiots and actually doesn't care about video games:
1 , milking same franchices to death.
it's crazy that they have forza game almost every year, and how many halo's and gears? that's lack of innovation and creativity, chasing what sells best on your paltform, rather then aquiring new ip's.

2. limiting your studios with deadlines, releaseing unfinished games.
sea of thieves great example.
3. relying on multiplatforms games.
that's what they did all this gen, i've said before that exclussives is backbone of platform, and ms made themselfs invertebrate company.
giphy.gif


4. messing up on big stage.
everyone knows about that, tv, tv, tv, sport sport, cod, sport, tv, tv, tv, tv sport, tv, xbox have become watercooler.

i actually feel sad and sorry for those who owns just xbox, at the start of this gen it was just funny, but now seeing sony just pumping game after game while at ms:

i'm sincerely sad, for them, and don't get me wrong i know it's harsh but that's reality and it's hard to admit otherwise even angry joe admited that:

I doubt he would include dlc in the 14, well unless its some major dlc expansion. At the same time though, people need to remember most of the new studios were bought over the last few months to a year, anyone expecting a ton of major new AAA games is expecting too much imo. Next gen is when we will probably see the fruits of those studio buys.

I'm expecting a lot of trailers for games that are 1 - 2 years out.
 
Perhaps others can update if anything is wrong:

1. Compulsion Games - We Happy Few DLC, ??
2. Coalition - Gears 5, Tactics, Pop!
3. Mojang - Minecraft, ??
4. Ninja Theory - Bleeding Edge
5. Playground Games - Forza Horizon 4 Expansion 2, maybe Fable ??
6. Rare - Battletoads, Sea of Thieves DLC, ??
7. 343 - Halo Infinite, Reach, etc
8. inXile - Wasteland 3, ??
9. Obsidian Enterntainment - The Outer Worlds, ??
10. The Intitiative - ??
11. Turn 10 - Too early for FM8, perhaps some kind of ray tracing tech demo on FM7 ??
12. Undead Labs - State of Decay 2 DLC, ??
13. Xbox Global - AOE 4, ??
14. ??????? (New Studio)

- Not sure where Ori 2 or Cuphead DLC would fit
?? = Something new perhaps
MS has stated that inxile is working on an unannounced game that they are going to talk about this year when they brought the studio. Also xbox global doesn't make games they actually help third party devs that they are publishing the game for. Relic entertainment is actually the one making AOE 4.
 
I expect some within 12 months but certainly not Sony levels of 4 years off
Xbox One is pretty much dead in the water. They would do themselves a diservice if they weren't hyping Scarlett from now until release.

That's reason for that, there's no shame to support good platform.

Definitely not like crackdown, scalebound (yeah we know it's canceled :)) , fable ohhhhhh hold on lol You miscontruing Sony showing worked on projects (years away is irrelevant when you have constant output of ips yearly) and Microsoft having like three e3s in a row showing the same games until finally one E3 thy can boast about the game coming out shortly. They did that we Recore, Quantum Break, Sea of Thieves, Forza, gears, Crackdown (was ridiculous lol) etc lol

The Good

- Halo Infinite
- Outer Worlds
- Gears 5
- Cyberpunk (MS got marketing dibs I think)

The Bad

- Ninja Theory IP will be some multiplayer game, despite the studio being known for singleplayer. This is totally something MS would do.
- Rare. They haven't done anything good except for a collection of their old games.
- From Software's Game of Thrones (same as Cyberpunk, MS got marketing). You just know that From got the B team for this one. The game will probably be fine but goddamn I'm so tired of hearing about this franchise lol
