Ok this is starting to seem too good. Maybe you should slow down Mr. Insider.


or Mrs. Insider?

 

[enzo_gt]

Crackdown 3 better be the Crackdown 2 we all deserved.

Halo 5 really needs that extra year.. I hope they give it that.

 

[captmcblack]

Fuck...Halo 2 is hard to resist. Gonna have to drop the XB1 price, though - but for Halo 2 anniversary, I could plausibly jump in.

 

[jaypah]

Wow, this dude does not give a fuck. I like it! Nice change of pace from all the cryptic shit. Not talking about CBOAT, just the usual riddles that internet insiders use.

 

[Impeccable]

Can we get some information on the future of new IPs?

All these bombs are great but it is the same things over and over. I want the juicy bits on what we don't expect.

 

[Super Stardust]

Might wanna wait for the white one.

Megaton, this thread just keeps on giving.

 

[Doffen]

Fall 2014, probably September.

Super sexy weather system and... shit tons of co-op/social stuff. 1080P and open-world, so you can road trip with your bros.

I've got an Xboner right now.

Might wanna wait for the white one.

Oh damn! This will be mine!

Other questions: Tier 2 countries, when will Xbox One launch there? And Any word on Fable Anniversary for Xbox One?

New setting? Or does it take place in Colorado again?

 

[Guymelef]

Bish, can you recheck this guy's credentials? Because he's DROPPING ALL THE BOMBS

Already verified by Bish.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Might wanna wait for the white one.

Dawg, stopping dropping bombs! Dang! People have weak hearts here!

 

[many places]

Might wanna wait for the white one.

its actually coming for the public?!

 

[Chobel]

I'm gonna go get lunch soon and then you're gonna have to relax.

Drop some other bombs before that? something about Rare maybe?

 

[Glorified G]

Halo 2? Really? I hope that's not their big first party holiday game.

 

[DieH@rd]

Folk sure do love Halo 2.

They sure do...

I'm not blown away by this plan MS made, although it will bring them a lot of old fans back. They are focusing on old franchises to the max. How about little creativity from 1st party studios?

 

[Gestault]

I hope the forces at work understand just how disappointed I'll be if this rumor of a Forza Horizon 2 ends up being false. No, I don't need it in 2014, but I need it to be a thing.

 

[Toki767]

Might wanna wait for the white one.

Maybe you can give us an update on that Kinect-less SKU.

 

[Bgamer90]

Stop. Please stop. My heart can't take it... Especially if all of this doesn't turn out to be true.

 

[Ryaaan14]

This fuckin guy. lol

I'm going to love 2014.

 

[Syphon Filter]

They want a new Halo box on shelves each year, although the 360's weird 2013 lineup probably contributed to that being Halo 4 complete.

You really counting halo 4 goty? lol that is reaching bro. MS actually said two year dev cycle,they dont want annual releases.

 

[Drago]

Christ, just tell me we're getting an old Rare IP and I will buy an Xbox One this year

jesus

 

[def sim]

ah geez this thread is like the best thing to happen to microsoft in a long while

 

[SwiftDeath]

Other questions: Tier 2 countries, when will Xbox One launch there? And Any word on Fable Anniversary for Xbox One?

Actually this is a great question. I'm curious that we haven't even got dates for tier 2 countries yet

 

[NMHD]

Might wanna wait for the white one.

My god. You are just on a roll today. ILY

 

[Caayn]

Oohh ooohh some Banjo Kazooie bombs would be really nice.

 

[Chuck Norris]

How is it poor? TitanFall,Spark,Sunset Overdrive and Quantum Break. Forza Horizon 2[rumored]

I'd like to see Quantum Break come out but I just don't trust Remedy to make such a hasty development

I have a feeling an Insomniac game is going to headline the holiday season and that is not what you really want. Especially coming up against Uncharted. MS needs a big seller in there to get some momentum going

 

[kittens]

Rushing it will be a disaster...

Exactly. Take your time, 343. Make us proud.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

I knew halo 5 would not make it this year. Two years is just not enough time.

 

[Village]

They are doing anniversary additions of each game

GET

TO

3

 

[BusterJol]

Ntkrnl, this seems like a simple question to ask but where is D4?

Microsoft said February but nothing has come out on it for awhile.

 

[PanicFreak]

I'm afraid that we'll see this happening. We'll finally get H2A but with H4 multiplayer maps/modes/gameplay/no elites/etc.

Yeah but it will give you a glimpse of what they have in store for Halo 5 MP.

 

[Neuromancer]

I wonder how much the Bone will be in 2016, and whether Kinect will still be inextricably linked to it...

 

[Bedameister]

ah geez this thread is like the best thing to happen to microsoft in a long while

maybe they pay him 3€ for 1000 views

 

[VanWinkle]

Man all of this stuff sounds amazing. I would totally buy an XB1 right now if it was $300 and didn't require a Gold subscription (as it is there's no way I can make myself pay for PS+ AND XBLG).

 

[PhatSaqs]

It's like a pep rally up in this bitch

 

[amnesiac]

Christ, just tell me we're getting an old Rare IP and I will buy an Xbox One this year

jesus

I'm still holding on for Goldeneye

 

[Nafai1123]

ntkrnl and this thread

 

[Toki767]

I wonder how much the Bone will be in 2016, and whether Kinect will still be inextricably linked to it...

It's gotta be down to $300 by that point. At least, that's what Black Friday sales will put it at I'm sure.

 

[Caayn]

maybe they pay him 3€ for 1000 views

So he's giving Bish 50% of his total earnings with this thread? MMmmhhh it's almost a conspiracy.

 

[V_Ben]

You really counting halo 4 goty? lol that is reaching bro. MS actually said two year dev cycle,they dont want annual releases.

Phil Spencer wanted it in 2010

http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2010/09/microsoft-exec-hints-at-frequent-perhaps-annual-halo-releases/

You're right they want longer cycles

"But it's not, hey every November 6 or whatever we have to ship a game and build a production plan around that. We want to do things that make sense as a first party."

But, they're also going to want a box on a shelf each year. Hence why H2A isn't being made by 343

"I used to look at annual releases of non-sports games as people just trying to milk me... Kudos to Activision because they've done a good job building a good game, continuing to release each year and I think the fans feel like it's a good thing that they do that,"

Agreed though, last year I think was a victim of the generational transition.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

If the mp is untouched and redone for hd, then I will blow my load. Otherwise not interested in HD campaign

Yup. I will die if its HD Halo 2 MP. I will be locked away in my room for years

 

[bloke]

Has he said anything about Platinum/MS japan yet?

Other questions: Tier 2 countries, when will Xbox One launch there?

This...and this.

 

[ActiveRush]

I don't know where else to ask this but since he's an insider he might know. When are we getting 5.1 digital surround sound on the Xbox One? The fact that it's not there still is ridiculous.

 

[Spottiettiedop]

Hopefully this rumor pans out. Its starting to feeling a chess match between MS and Sony with potential game release dates.

 

[RoKKeR]

Fuck me, if I didn't already have a dame bone I'd be all over the white one.

I can get used to this new insider, god damn.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

Might wanna wait for the white one.

I would instantly buy a white Xbox One. Any ideas when this version will launch? Just the color or will it bundle a game?

 

[Mystery Ironman]

Might wanna wait for the white one.

Is there any chance or thoughts on a limited edition Halo 2 or Halo 5 Xbox One ?

Probably too early for limited edition Xbox One versions as current gen just started and whatnot.

 

[kittens]

Yeah, an XB1 price drop would really sweeten the deal.

Spoiler

But for Halo 2, I'll buy the console no matter what the price.

 

[LordBaztion]

Something about Lionhead's new IP?
Is MS trying to buy TitanFall IP?

 

[shwimpy]

need a date for the white one. i'll be first in line.
