So you're going off of your own opinion? -__- ok

Unless you can see into the future,  please explain how we could predict otherwise?    

It's not just pure opinion though.  It's looking objectively at the actual games being released.   Thus far for 2014 -- Microsoft  big hitter exclusives are looking like (Sunset Overdrive, Project Spark, Titanfall) ?     I believe that (Infamous : SS,  The Order 1886,  MLB : The Show,  DriveClub,   Most likely a game like Deep Down)  is simply a stronger list of varied exclusives and could probably back it up with numbers if I cared enough.    


You disappoint me. Titanfall, Project Spark, Quantum Break, Black Tusk's Game, Sunset Overdrive, Fable Legends, and Halo 5 is a very strong list, even with me not naming all of the exclusives just because you'll throw around that whole opinion thing again.

The biggest problem with a majority of the Xbox One lineup is many titles are limited or damaged in some way.  The other part of the problem with your list is making a lot of assumptions on 'potential' and 'secret' releases.   We could do the same with the PS4 list (The Last Guardian, Naughty Dog's project, etc).  I stayed away from that because it gets into far too much of a grey area.

Titanfall - Very hyped up, but Multi-player only and built off of an old engine.  Probably will be a lot of fun but it's going to have to be better than every shooter out there to have any lasting effect.

Project Spark -  In terms of a game this will disappoint many in my eyes.  (And I love Garry's Mod and Little Big Planet - created several levels myself).  Simply put,  this will be more a creative tool versus some wonderful exclusive.  I don't see it selling very well either.  Limited market,  limited scope.

Quantum Break - No solid release date marked down --- Unique genre -- Not really sure how the game will be played at this point.  Far too many questions regarding the nature and nuances of this game.

Black Tusk Game - What is known about this game?   It's a complete unknown.  

Fable Legends - End of 2014 at best,  the creator is departed from the series and it's kind of taking a different spin.  Still some serious question marks surrounding this.

Sunset Overdrive -  Insomniac is a solid developer, haven't seen anything.  

Halo 5 -  Even though I don't think we've got a confirmed release date, I'd imagine this drops this year November.  

 

I still believe that Fable Legends will crash and burn, Black Tusk Game is unknown completely, Quantum Break I think crash and burns or doesn't release in 2014 --  as does Project Spark.  It pretty much boils down to (Titanfall, Sunset Overdrive, Halo 5).  Halo 5 will be huge,  Titanfall will have to prove itself and Sunset Overdrive going by track record will be probably an 'Okay' game.   That's assuming most of these even release in 2014.
