anyone who is thibking microsoft has hidden AAA exclusives is delusional st this point. MS really needs sea of thieves game pass and mixer to be continuous revenue hits.
Last new character getting shown off this week.Rare have more IP than the rest of Microsoft's studios combined.
Btw, can anyone tell me what happened to Killer Instinct, is it still active?

Tbh,i was pretty disappointed with MS' new first party output this year (which is to say, it didn't exist.) We got Forza, Ori 2, and... That's it. Hopefully the other shows later this year aren't similarly bereft.
It was a good games showcase but not a great first party publisher one.
Yeah and that's their problem, in the past they made all sorts of games but today, studios only focus on one game - even more so under Microsoft - and Rare doesn't have one.Rare have more IP than the rest of Microsoft's studios combined.

We know there's a HW2 expansion pack they have to show off at some point. Ditto Halo 6.LOL other shows? They probably skip Gamescom completely. They don't have anything else to show.

I doubt there's much in the pipeline, but hey, I can hope.
I understand the complaints. Still lots of work to do. Games, XBL, platform etc. Proud of the team. BC is great.

This is going to get a lot of usage on here and rightly so.
Phil's handling of first party studios and games has been nothing short of shambolic: from studio closures to cancelled games and a lacklustre series of internally developed games.
They need to go on a buying spree / set up new studios. Is the budget there though? It doesn't look like it

Before this year I would've said they were planning something major for E3 where we get a bunch of teasers for 2018. Now I'm thinking their full lineup for that year might just be Halo, Horizon, Sea of Thieves, and Ori.Ok so we've known 2017's line-up for over a year now (even longer with crackdown, and we could have assumed forza years ago).
When will we find out 2018's line-up? Are they going to try and make every announcement at next year's E3 a 'surprise' announcement, or will they have a conference at gamescom? Or just announce games randomly from here on.

I said this in the other thread, but is it inevitable that we got this year as a bit of a lull on the heavy-hitters as Phil Spencer (as he said previously) transitions to shorter E3-release times?
I don't know about you all but I can confidently say after this E3, I won't be investing any more money or time into Xbox. Been a fan since 2004, but whatever xbox was then is long gone now.
I'll take that One X money I put aside and get a switch.
If Satya doesn't unlock the funds for him he can't. Hence why Gamepass was probably set up to produce extra revenue as well.
It's possible, but the lack of behind the scenes buildup (new studios, hiring sprees, etc.) makes it unlikely that that's the primary cause. At best it's amplifying the issues brought around by MS' downsized and factory line first party.I said this in the other thread, but is it inevitable that we got this year as a bit of a lull on the heavy-hitters as Phil Spencer (as he said previously) transitions to shorter E3-release times?
The most pathetic thing about this whole situation is that their first party lineup of new 2017 releases can fit in a single tweet. "Halo Wars 2, Crackdown 3 and Forza Motorsport 7"

I thought SLT was coming to Ps4 at a later date? In the conference it said console debut exclusive.
+Super Lucky's Tale
+Phantom Dust port

Yes I did, and they guy I quoted didn't have those criterias you listed. For all that's evident, the Xbox One platform will have great 3rd party support, with a lot of them releasing first on Xbox one.

Your not counting Cuphead. Shannon said they were showing 5 games this E3.Well there were 9 unaccounted for games from MS Global Publishing team two of those are Super Lucky Tales and Ori 2. So 7 total unaccounted that is to assume that since 2016 and now they haven't signed more through that.
Sea of Thieves.

You could probably fit a hashtag or two in there. Frankly, if you are a platform holder, you have to be willing and able to support a certain level of costs on hardware, software and services. If Microsoft is unable or unwilling to support the necessary software development costs suitable for a platform holder, then they should get out of the business.
Below is no longer an MS published game. What Capy now does is independent of MSI dont get this cuphead hype.. where is below :/
They also have announced Super Lucky Tale but as you know that it isn't a port. So strange why you didn't include it.
Sea of Thieves.
Is this a Microsoft published title? Or is it just a timed indie thing?
Either way, I mean you can add it to the list if you want, I don't think it makes the list any less awful
Well it's a console exclusive. So probably they paid for the port.Is this a Microsoft published title? Or is it just a timed indie thing?

State of decay 2
Crackdown 3
Ori and the will if the wisp
Super Luckys Tale
Cuphead

I don't think it's ID@xbox anymore. Unless Recore Definotive edition is the 5th gameCuphead is from ID @ Xbox. They are showed from global publishing 4 games at the press conference which are SoD2, CD3, Ori 2, Super Luckys Tale.
MS Studios including their studios have 5 games playable on the show floor which supposedly are: Forza 7, CD3(Single player), Sea of Thieves, Super Luckys Tale, and SoD2/Ori.
