Forums - Microsoft Discussion - 2007 was the best xbox line up ever.

But but but according to the team 2015 was the greatest year in Xbox history and now we're told that 2016 is going to be the greatest year in Xbox history! I'm so confused!

2015 honestly sucked, X1s big guns shot out disappointments.

07 kills it.



As others have stated, it is purely subjective. For me though, 2004 was the greatest year in Xbox history because of Halo 2, Fable, Kotor II, Espn NFL 2k5, Star Wars: Battlefront etc.

Never before has Gears of war, Fable, Halo, and Forza launched in the same time period and add tomb raider to that list. 5 big franchises in The same time period. That has never happened before in Xbox history. That is what Microsoft is saying. It truly is the greatest holiday line-up in Xbox history.


Fable never launched,  halo 5 is a lot worse than halo 3 and PGR was the forza of that year.  Gears is a 360 game re released.  

 

Add to that the game of the year 2007 Bioshock and mass effect and you've an infinitely better year.  No re releases in 2007 either.

Gears Ultimate, Rare Replay and I thought Fable Legends was supposed to release in 2015.

Metacritic scores are jokes most of the time. Too many people on this site take it seriously. Never in my life would I rate Bloodborne over an 8/10 or Advanced Warfare over a 6/10. I just use them as a general guide. The difference between an 88 and a 92 is ABSOLUTELY meaningless.


Fable isn't releasing and the others you named are old games being re released.  

 

2007 had 4 excellent AAA exclusives.  Bioshock was GOTY 2007 and mass effect not far off it.  Halo 3 much better than halo 5 and it had PGR too.

I totally agree with you, Xbox is really doing theirself a disservice by calling this the "best line up in Xbox history" kinda makes them look like they have not done much ever if that is the best they can do.

 

Bioshock > Best Line up in Xbox history lol



So GAF is saying Bioshock is factually a better game than Last of Us? Ballsy.

Bioshock 1 is one of the best shooter / adventure games ever made. the atmosphere in that game is like nothing else



Even if it isn't the best. What is the problem?



Honestly 2016 just seems way better
