I think it's a good launch lineup. If I were just choosing games outside of multiplats (PC centered here) I'd want Crimson and Forza 5. The rest do not interest me enough.

I think it is. Top of the genre kind of titles that cover most of the bases. I'd actually have a hard time choosing what to bring home with the console. I don't recall a launch lineup like this, not even Dreamcast as legendary as that launch was.

Interesting, I want Ryse, Crimson and Dead, but I'm not an Xbox guy.

Looks like the Wii U lineup. I wonder if people will decide to upgrade to next gen this time.

It's a pretty good line-up for sure, though quite a few games have yet to prove themselves.
Killer Instinct looks glorious though.

That is an AWESOME launch lineup!
Next Gen is here!!!
The multiplats here are actually going to have some improvement to them.

Why would you bring up that poor, poor system here?

If that's what will make you sleep better at night then go with it. I'm not playing around though.

That's a great lineup. Shame about Kinect Sports rivals.
Haha... what?

He actually does have a point. Hell, nothing there is proven and that includes 3rd party stuff.
I already noted the games I'd like but the rest I can either get on PC/PS4 or I just don't care about enough.
That WiiU comparison is laughable as well. What a shame.

yeah i think you are talking shit. There are some fantastic games on there - even if you dont like them.
You said "That's an embarrassingly bad lineup compared to 360. Not a single game I would even bother playing,"

SO not one of those games you think are worth playing?
Embarrassingly bad? really? What console has had a stronger launch lineup than this? The only one i can think of is the Dreamcast. Even then - this seems much stronger. I think you are just trying to sound cool by hating everything - seems to be your schtick.

you believe every game on there is "embarrassingly bad" and "not worth playing"? You truly believe that?
God how depressed I will be if the PS4 list looks the same. It looks as if someone made a list for fun some years ago, making up version numbers on the go.
-Yeah, and imagine when the NEXT console comes! Dead Rising 3, Battlefield 4, Fifa 14, Madden NFL 25, Half Life 3 and so on!
-Yeah man, the future is totally awesome.
I should clarify; I truly believe a lot of those games will be awesome to play. It's just that I feel that we are living in a swamp of rehashed games.

Didn't know Crimson Dragon was launch! That's a very promising launch line up. Sony better launch early cause my wallet won't be able to take it.
Killer Instinct (Ultra Edition)
Forza 5
Dead Rising 3
Ryse Son of Rome
Peggle 2
Crimson Dragon
And not to mention a couple of 3rd party games... geez!

Interesting language.
That's a ton of games, though. Pretty impressive if it pans out.

I actually don't think it's laughable since if I had bought a Wii U on day 1 I would have bought Zombi U and NSMB. Not sure I would have liked them but they intrigued me enough to warrant a purchase.
I seriously don't know what I would get with this system. PDZ (online anyway), Kameo, PGR and Condemned were all awesome but the exclusives they're bringing out this time are falling flat. I guess I'd have to get Dead Rising? Don't really like the franchise but that's honestly the best game they've got so far.

I just realized this!! Did they seriously not announce a release date? When are they supposed to?
They may be waiting for Sony to go first, then announce their own later in the week. I assume they want to keep the releases close, especially with the Free FIFA deal for Europe.
Other than Watch Dogs (And I'm waiting for Gaffers impressions on that one), that list doesn't interest me in the slightest. Good for my wallet I guess. Too much good stuff still coming for current gen, Wii U and 3DS. I won't jump in before 2015 probably unless there's a groundbreaking game ala Super Mario 64 coming out before.

As I feel is going to be the norm for this next generation, there's a ton of platform overlap in that lineup. Is there enough there to convince (normal) people to drop $500 for a new machine?

Nothing here for me. Battlefield 4 is a PC purchase in my collection.
Maybe NFS Rivals or Watchdogs, but they are not system sellers for me.

For a whole generation of gaming the catch cry has been "it's all about the games". Somehow this gen has started with "it's all about that DRM and RAM".
This is undoubtedly a solid launch lineup, and hopefully Sony can produce a similar lineup so we can get back to it being all about the games.

Bro, I'm being serious. It really isn't worth it. He's looking forward to Killzone and Knack. And thinks there's nothing good on the XBO launch list. That's fine. Everyone has their own opinions.
Just don't let someone obvious disdain and negativity ruin this topic. Let it go.

Thank you for you unwavering MSFT loyalty. I've read your posts but never respond. If you want me to dig out some of your posts I will but as I sad, I've seen enough of you to know why you would jump the gun on a post like mine. If I'm being critical or pessimistic it's because that's what I feel as it is. Not everything on Xbone is stellar. I'm sure you can come to terms with that.
Tell me, where did I say "embarrassingly bad" and "not worth playing"? Even if I agreed with Derrick, I use different language so do not put words in my mouth.
If you're insulted at that then that's a you problem. I stand by my words.
