The first 2 bullet points seems really interesting, specially the part where Ms may be working with 3rd parties for propelling new IPs again.

GAF acting like dumbasses again. This shitting on MS is getting old. Go fuck yourselves.

Woah, someone got the panties in a kinect.
\they did put Alan Wake on PC, but you're right.
And isn't Kinect on PC?

Yeah, but who's developing them? The Kinect Star Wars guys? The Crackdown 2 guys? The Fighters Unleashed guys?
If these are XBLA games then it wouldn't be a surprise since alot of their games have hit Steam lately.
To be fair it was the tail end of this gen that their exclusive output was abysmal.

The OP was replying to Ales from another thread. The mod (Nirolak) decided since this is new news he created a new thread with OPs post.

It's really a love/hate relationship.
People just want new, fresh games. We've been burned plenty of times in the past with MS proclaiming they're working on new IPs, and they turn out to be shitty Kinect games.
We WANT Microsoft to do good. We WANT good new IPs from them. All this skepticism you see is because people don't want to get their hopes up.

Well, Black Tusk's new game is definitely one of them. (AAA, "next big IP", not Kinect)
The others haven't been announced in any form.
Also, when did Neogaf turn into N4G?

Seriously though, it can't be Halo/Forza/Gears, etc. Those are not "new IPs."

The kinect centric guesses aren't surprising as it is expected to be integrated into druango

That's my first thought. Hopefully i'm wrong.
Yep, they will all be heavy "kinect only" games.
Since as we all know, casual gamers are the ones that buy consoles as soon as they come out. Not core gamers.

I guess some here are just going to have to wait and see. I predict tons of eaten crow.
"MS, we want new core gamer retail IPs!!!!"
"MS is making new IPs??? They'll probably be casual kinect games... who cares."

From searching, Ales + Microsoft only returns the name Ales Moskon. Some guy that consults at MS. I'm really confused, who's CV excerpt is this?

Unfortunately, even though people went overboard, MS has earned a lot of the skepticism in my view.

I'm expecting good stuff.
Don't let me down, Microsoft.
Don't let me down, Microsoft.
Turn 10 is working on Forza Motorsport 5 and Playground Games is working on Horizon 2 your logic is invalid. 343 Studios is working on Halo 5....

"Ales" is a regular neogaf poster and not from MS. Ales was arguing that MS should not only focus on the regular sequels of Gears, Halo, etc. Honestly Nirolak should delete that Ales quote to save the confusion.

It would be excellent if it wasn't Kinect stuff because if it's successful they will dump a shit ton of money into it.
They didn't, Remedy did. Microsoft just let them
Excatly, they didn't have too but they did anyway.

Interested how many are 3rd party.

Definitions of "new" may vary. So it might very well be a mix of new and/or repurposed IPs. And there is nothing to say that "working on" will translate to "released." In which case, it could very well be 0 "new" IPs. It's highly cynical to believe Microsoft will offer nothing new, of course, but this blurb doesn't really mean all that much.

Be funny if they also had some 3rd party exclusives lined up too. . . but of course they "won't count" for one reason or another.
Quite a few ppl here are actually hoping it is.

I believe it's all first party since it's "Microsoft Game Studios".
That's part of being a MS fan. Most hated company since original Xbox. Nothing new lol
They've really become a narrowly-focused group over the past couple years, but you can hardly accuse them of that over the entire life of the 360.
In the first few years of the 360's life, they tried a lot of things to get interest going in the platform. I expect something similar this time around. Hopefully a couple more of them stick this time.
They kind of need to, otherwise why would you buy a xbox instead of a PlayStation?

So any idea who's CV excerpt this is? And where does it come from? This thread is so haphazard and annoying <.< (not blaming you OP)
