Is there a list of Mircrosoft published games at the conference?
Forza 7, State of Decay 2, Sea of Thieves and Crackdown 3 are the only ones I could easily tell. Aren't those all games announced years ago at that??

Think they need to up their investement substational more. There was a disturbing lack of 1st party and to launch a new super console with very little new exclusives.

Phil is completely full of it. I'm glad I made the jump to PS4.

People actually expected a lot of new exclusives? Because I sure didn't. Are we forgetting that they don't really have a lot of studios?
It was this year that they said they would be showing the same kind of dedication they showed to the Xbox platform for the first party. No way can we already see results of that now.
Hopefully we see a change next year.

Not a bad conference overall, but yeah, in terms of first-party output, it left a lot to be desired.

He said he'd invest in first party. He didn't say what year or generation that would be in.
Y'all played yourselves.

I had a feeling this thread would pop up again...Man I really got kicked in the balls tonight " I know y'all wanted Crimson Skies, but we wouldn't dare pore money into a AAA 4k Xbox1X sequel but here you can play the game like its 2000 again. Damn you Phil!!!!!
No way 2018 or 2019 either then.

No siree, only announcing games coming soon...... that have been shown 3 or 4 times already 😏
Crackdown 3, Cuphead - E3 2014, releasing 2017.
Sea of Thieves - E3 2015, releasing 2018.
State of Decay 2 - E3 2016, releasing 2018.
Just for example.
All video game companies show games that are coming soon along with games that are coming less soon.

Microsoft are still playing catch up and with how long it takes to develop games, my guess is this investment isn't really gonna start paying off for them until the end of this gen and the start of next gen.
Hopefully we start hearing more news of them starting up studios and maybe even buying some.

When were Crackdown 3, Sea of Thieves and State of Decay announced? Yeah.
MS are no better than Sony when it comes to this stuff, meaning that it's pretty likely that they've got jack shit they are actually ready to show, other than what we saw. Expect the next big unannounced Xbox game to be released early 2020, if we're lucky.

People need to let go of the fantasy that MS is going to be releasing big new IP/fist party single player games. Those largely seem to be disappearing from their lineup. Except for a few mainstays. Which I personally like... but not everyone does.
If you like multiplayer games, though, it's not so bad.
In context to purchasing a $499 console, thats why. Ori is a solid game, but it's not AAA and they needed to sell this 4k HDR push. They did not.

Phil Spencer is the Head of the Xbox division since March 2014.
That's 3 years and a couple of months.
What new 1st party MP games were announced today?

well when they're trying to sell us on a 500 dollar console and have basically no exclusives...

If I was someone who was excited for the Xbox One X I'd be pissed by what they just showed.
You could have posted this in 2011 and it would have been relevant then as well.
Next year though, aye?

lol, exactly.
It better happen fast if u r going to spend $499 on the X. New gen will start around 2020. Or do u want a situation like the Wii U where the new games are allocated to a new console? Not a wise move by them.
Yup Ori and Cuphead look amazing, but they will play just fine on a regular Xbox one.

also for what it's worth all of those games can be played on windows too right?
which is good for pc owners but makes it that much harder to sell the xb1/xbx
Ouch.
