Sony have Spider-man, but what if Microsoft had...

But, then they would still need answers for God of War, Uncharted/Last of Us, Horizon Zero Dawn, Infamous, Ratchet and Clank, Dreams, Bloodborne, Nioh, Ghosts of Tsushima, Persona, Dragon Quest, Kojima, etc, etc, etc.

Hopefully MS wont just mirror Sonys games, i want variation. And why does Sony hate multiplayer lol?
 
I would like a Hulk game in the vein of Ultimate Destruction. It's still pretty good even on the original Xbox at 720p but its like 15 years old now. With the added X cpu power it could really be special as an exclusive, and the marketing the Xbox. Big , powerful, and GREEN, just like Hulk. The destruction physics were insane too.

As a consumer idgaf if it was exclusive, just give me those games and make them good.

Joe blow next to me not having a game for his preferred toy doesn't affect me at all.
 
God no.

Having a Spiderman game on only one console is bad enough without compounding the problem with more exclusivity bollocks, all just so console warriors can score points against each other.
 
no...

no no no!

HALO 1 deserves a remake

give it this kind of graphics

The power of xbox sx demonstrated by running a launch ps4 game.
 
No matter how hard you try, it is nearly impossible to come up with a very good superman game that HAS no flying in it. It´s literally the whole gist about being Superman, be able to fly around .... like in Superman64.

Superman the franchise has 1/3 of the mediatic push as Spiderman or Batman. Superman is weak, is a boring hero ... not a good video game material. How else can you implement Superman to your game, without him

A) fly around thru rings or thru other objects like 90% of the time but of course at 1/1000th of the actual speed because else the player would travel around the world in the game ... ITS LAME AF!
B) pick up big trucks and throw them like Hulk
C) beat everyone to a pulp
 
Superman, Judge Dredd, Punisher, Daredevil, TMNT, Conan, He-man or GI Joe.... anyone of these characters deserves to have a good game about the.
 
This is literally what they need at launch to make some kind of impact. Unfortunately all we'll get is Halo and Forza 83
Pretty sure Obsidian is making a fantasy RPG. Theres way more stuffs to be shown than Halo Infinite and Forza Motorsport 8.
 
Rather they do something different and mature like the punisher

Made by the Gears 5 studio, could be amazing.

That Warzone movie was on point as was the interrogation system in the Xbx/Ps2 Punisher games and on that note, wouldnt mind a new Constantine game.

Oh hell yeah! A Constantine game would be great, put Keanu on it and it would sell a lot.

They could make a SP campaign mode and a 4 player coop mode to push the live services!

That would be a reason for me to buy an Xbox...

There's a sea of multiplayer games out there. Unless you're putting something out that really sets you apart from third party, like Forza/Sea of Thieves, what's the point? Xbox needs more of Hellblade 2 and less of Gears of War half foot in half foot out.
 
Here's what I would like in a new series of video games: I want the Wolverine.

I want all the narrative just like in the comics. Each game would consist of a set of sandbox locations. I think I would want Logan to control similarly to how Crysis plays where you have these sets of abilities that can work in tandem. For instance, Wolverine has superhuman strength, speed, and agility, but his enhanced animal-like senses also enable him to be really stealthy and elusive. So you can go into a compound all bezerker or you can take the stealthier approach ala Metal Gear Solid. Of course, Wolverine's trademark claws/skeleton and healing factor are always there. In my mind, you punch without the claws if you don't want to kill, or... you use the claws to kill everything you come into contact with.

The way I imagine it, the sandbox locales would include some cities with an abundance of immersion, people to talk to, missions to complete, and overall story objectives for each. Logan may have to do some traveling between locales to progress the main arc (thanks SSD), and there would be a fair bit of having to unlock or solve the story to move forward.

And I do imagine that in the games, the full X-Men cast will sometimes be there alongside Wolverine. We gotta do this right. Some of his biggest fights were in the X-Men main storyline.

Microsoft should try to acquire DC comics since there is a rumor that Warner is close to shutting them down. That would give them a stable of IP and if they could get Warner games studios that would be a very solid group of developers.
 
...the next Batman or Superman on the series X as an exclusive game? I just think it would make an interesting fight for next gen seeing Spider-man 2 on PS5 and an exclusive DC game on Series X...
Could be a big Hit if microsoft could get Batman, but honestly....im staying with Spidey. Find it a much better game than Arkham Saga. (platinum'ed Spidey and Arkham Asylum)
 
Superman is too difficult to do right I feel.

Now Ironman is probably more realistic, and has a massive fanbase. Still human enough to be vulnerable but also high tech enough to have a broad range of encounters against PMC's etc.
Bryank75 Bryank75 also mentioned Judge Dredd - another fantastic idea. You see it all over the internet people lamenting the lack of opportunities to play as a 'cop'. It's not enough to just pick an IP, they need to pick an IP that will turn heads/get people excited when trailers drop. Something new but familiar.


Fix this Phil
 
They should go the dark and gritty route and make a sabretooth game. I was going to originally say Deadpool but I think the last one was supposedly trash. Gambit would be great as well. The issue with matching Spiderman would be the mobility. I think instead of focusing on a dc or marvel hero it would be better to just base it on a beloved cartoon or movie .
 
What would be the reaction if Xbox has Batwoman as an exclusive.

The mere thought gives me shudders.

I don't think most people would like that. I think it would be stupid if each console had their own exclusive superhero game. I wouldn't have a problem if Spider-Man was released on Xbox too.

Thanks C!
 
Open world Judge Dredd is the correct call. It's all there in the comic pages...Cursed Earth, Block War, Haunting Of Sector House 9. Come on, Rebellion.

Probably never gonna happen but Thor would be killing two birds with one stone. They get a marvel game for everyone missing out on Spiderman and also caters somewhat to God of War crowd.

Gears 5 wasnt good nor do I trust them to make a really dark and violent game. Need to hand it off to someone else
 
Xbox has a gold mine in their vault. Phil already said his new teams can go into the vault and make something, if I were a part of their studios thats exactly what Id do.

Some of the 360 games that were wildly popular and bring them back like Sony does.


Also I see people talking about Fable, why does it say fable is canceled?

Fable Legends was cancelled in 2016 and Lionhead was closed. Since then Microsoft has made several comments indicating that the IP is not dead.

That cancellation has nothing to do with the rumours surrounding Playground Games' potential Fable reboot.
 
MS having their own big exclusive Marvel or DC IP would be cool but could we get an open world game that isn't set in NYC? Please?

Prototype - NYC
Prototype 2 - NYC
The Division - NYC
Spider-man - NYC

I've played them all and I'm probably never playing another game that takes place there...
