I was talking exclusives. We saw most of them before E3.
NeoGAF implosion would be absolutely priceless. The gifs.... oh how amazing they would be.

I'm down for more Joy Ride if they give it controller support like Joy Ride Turbo.
You were talking about different things. This started because you said you had your doubts because sony have yet to show their 20 games...with some hyperbole to boot about indie titles. I told you why they didn't have to show that much to have a great conference and come out of the event in a better situation than MS. Then I told you we have so many titles yet to be seen and even gave you some examples. Then you went into a random comment about how you don't find the revealed titles to be interesting
Just simply answer this
'Why' do have trouble believing they have many more titles to show?

20 seems like a lot and they didn't show close to that amount at e3. Same reason I'm worried we won't see Kinect games either from MS now. Plus gamescom is rumored to be a Vita show. Might be more crossplay stuff in that 20 number for all we know.
Eh if you are going to doubt sony's PR about games it should be about vita...trust me, I'm in that same boat. But their home console support has been excellent and like I said a lot of their first party teams have yet to reveal their titles for the system. Quite a few of those teams have two teams now too. I think we will see their euro team exclusives for year 1 at GC and maybe one SCEA titles, SCEJ titles at TGS and ND's next game at vga. I just don't see any good real reason to have any doubts about the PS4 exclusives number
Messed up that there isn't any full motion control games to show off kinect at launch. Know there was a decent number looking forward to trying this game out.
I'm more so interested in kinect for UI control as well as features in traditional controller games so this news doesn't really bum me out either way.
I also guess that MS feels that the majority of the demographic that are interested in the game aren't the ones who'll get an Xbox One in late 2013; might as well use the extra time to polish the game up more.
Really strange though since it was "Day One" and everything. As someone else said, it makes those rumors about Xbox One game development being behind even more true especially when you add this on to what they are doing to Forza.
Though then again, I don't see why they couldn't give out a free marketplace demo of Kinect Sports Rivals during the launch of the system.

Or free tech demos for the Kinect in general.

Perhaps this is why it seems Zoo Tycoon is a launch game now, despite not being announced as one at E3. It'll show case the kinect to an extent, appeals to the casual market, so on. Shame though, I think MS' biggest strength with the X1 right now is the diversity of the launch titles: open world, third person action, driving, kinect driven and sim, all exclusive. Shame to see one fall, but in the end, better they go the best foot forward with kinect software, they should be the ones to show everyone how its done.

The time for motion gaming is over. One non-seller less.
I think Microsoft has nevertheless a decent launch lineup.

Fuck this was the one game I really wanted to try with kinect 2.0.
Its odd that the one game that could prove that kinect won't be complete garbage again is delayed.

Agreed. If only it didn't come with...
...well, you know.
On the plus side, my wife is happy that I'm not having a 2 console purchase Xmas this year.

Gamescom is going to have some Vita games for sure, but the focus is still going to be on PS4. They said as much. You can expect GG, MM and Sony London there. At TGS Sony Japan, maybe TLG and second parties like From. Then we still know that SSM, ND, Sony Bend and Sony San Diego are working on new projects for quite some time now. Expect them around the VGAs. Next year at E3 or maybe even before that QD is going to come out with their new IP, since they have 2 teams now too.
So while some of these games are going to be smaller PSN titles without a doubt, Sony has so many big studios left with unannounced games we are going to see a lot of stuff soon. Also GopherD seems confident that hype is appropriate. Sony is playing it strategic.
I agree it was boring but then they showed trailers FF15, followed by KH3 i know they arent exclusive bit it still got me hyped as fuck they then had the cheek to directly address the DRM issues. me and my mates had gone from falling to sleep (it was past 2am in the UK afterall) to some crazed cheering Horde of gamers.
Dude, that would be awesome, haha.
So does this mean Zumba Fitness World Party is the only launch Kinect game (multiplat even)? That's not good considering you're supposed to be justifying Kinect in some way besides voice controls. Perhaps they have a few games at Gamescom...but not holding my breathe for any games of substance.

My guess it that don't plan to pitch it to them. Console is sold out to the hardcore already (whether it's from supply issues or actual demand). They are probably pushing Kinect Sports to the casuals once the initial sales burst is over. I still think it's a terrible move, though, considering the Kinect is bundled.
Not sure, probably will just focus on the TV stuff. I'm sure they will have some smaller Kinect titles announced at Gamescom, maybe some more sports gems, or maybe even a nother season of NatGeoKinectTV and the likes....maybe even that Rabids Interactive TV Show that Ubisoft showed at E3.

Well there was that rumor of a new Prince of Persia with some kind of exclusivity, that was submitted by NeoGaf's beloved boat.
We know that Ubi will have a new Just Dance for the launch, even if it's multiplatform it may be their main kinect support.
