So vague it could mean anything, lol.

ReCore Definitive Edition

"Codename Hollywood"

I wonder what that could be, it could probably be Recore DE. Maybe AOE related, maybe the people thinking that MS got Crackdown out of the way before Gamescom to lessen the blow with good news (new game) were right? not going to get my hopes up though.

The listing is for xbox aoe4 wouldnt get released for xbox, so this cant be codename hollywood.

I mean, it could. We don't even know if AoE4 exists, let alone what form it's in.

That said if it does work on console it probably sucks (or, at least, it's not the 4 resource RTS I'm hoping for) so I hope you're right.

Imo they would have brought the aoe 1 remake first to xbox to do a test run, zero chance for aoe on xbox

...why on earth would they do that? AoE original would be a TERRIBLE fit for a controller.
That bad ? I dont remember that much from aoe1 :D

The codename also sound not like a rts to me, dont know I would choose something diffrent for a aoe game as codename.
 
This may be stupid but I actually really want all of the RTS games ported to Xbox One. Age of Empires 1,2, and 3; Age of Mythology DE, Rise of Nations DE, and more. I just don't have a computer anymore.

I know it's dumb cause it would be hard to map to a controller but I can't help it.

It isn't dumb, they announced Mouse/Keyboard support months ago.

Damn MS,. Just get the exclusive already.

PS install base too big for missing out and I doubt MS can pay that much for full exclusivity.

Edit:
Unless they think it will be a minecraft-type success for the MP shooter audience. Then they even might consider to buy the studio if possible (IDK).
 
I'm gonna be skeptical of any PUBG impressions, since the floor will probably have XboneX systems, but I'll be playing the game on a base Xbone.

I'm really curious to see how it's optimized, if there are UI changes, how the guns feel, etc.

UNLESS...unless what Phil said about adding mouse support is finally ready and this is the first mouse/Keyboard supported game....I know it sounds to good to be true.

well, if they think PUBG can become something like Minecraft, then they wont buy it and make it exclusive to their platforms, just like they didnt do with Minecraft

Xbox doesn't have the balls to pull that kind of deal anymore.
I miss the 2007-2012 Xbox, it didn't pull any punches.

Yeah, it would be a damn good punch but like you said, MS are a little too soft now. They should be fighting.

Their vision has changed, and I think Phil was caught in the middle and by surprise. I think a Phil under Ballmer would absolutely wreck, he's got great ideas but Nadella has him on restraints. Less funding + a change of direction towards the cloud/service based software/ecosystem. Nadella doesn't want to compete with PlayStation, he just wants to tie Xbox into Windows, a value-added for Windows customers.

Its not gonna happen guys. And to be fair i dont want it to.
Just make deals with games coming and are early in development. Instead of buying up something that suddenly succesful.

They would have to buy bluehole.......which means they would also own Tera online.

The asking price would be insane

Yep. Not sure why people want them to buy the exclusive for PUBG. Do people get more enjoyment from the game because others can't play it?
Must be a console warrior thing.

Excited for their announcement tomorrow!

Probably some Gears of War, Forza or Halo related gaming news. Nothing too exciting. Please prove me wrong.
 
Hate to be the negative Nancy here but if that tweet had come from Sony you could almost bet your life on it that it would be about a brand new game, yet here we are guessing it's probably Recore DE. So incredibly disappointing that it definitely could be just that.

Would love for them to announce a brand new game though, but that would have to mean it has been in development for a while now since Spencer doesn't wanna show shit too early anymore.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider gets revealed there as again a timed exclusive because no way will SE do otherwise.


Very unlikely though.
 
These lists are idiotic. They could pump four, five shitty "exclusive" kinect games to boost numbers (like they did before), what good would that do?

They are also wrong because before there wasn't so much of a possibility of digital releases, so being retail only excludes a big trend.

For instance, at launch Ori, which is one of the best games Ms ever published, wouldn't be counted because it was not retail.
