There is nothing wrong with showing repeated games especially if they were release recently or 3 or 4 months ago unless somehow those games don't matter anymore or that gamers somehow aren't buys them. Dont forget MS has advertising rights for a few of those multiplat games like The Division so it makes sense for it to appear in the trailer.

If you are going to call BS at least try to read peoples comments. I didnt say that there was a problem advertising multiplats in a video, all companies do that at E3 for example... but what I am saying is that the video starts with "Crappy stats" and "Look at this "Best line up ever" meme line...there is an obvious lack of 2016 MS content for them to throw a video out there which also includes games from last year and 3rd party. If you cannot see the point I and others are making... well nothing I can do I guess.

Microsofts exclusives are quite healthy in tandem with the expected multiplats. Microsoft is trying to sell that with their new IP initiative that they are having the best generation ever. I think it is a good path to be on, because this is what has made Sony so elusive to their competition. The dedication to new IP's that no one can follow. Microsoft might need to hire more outside developers than Sony but at least they are trying. They also have E3 coming up so you have the current crop of games ontop of the games that are sure to come at E3.

Sexy ad. Should appeal to a lot of people.

Good ad.
Though its mostly just cut CGI cutscenes from games, and barely any actual gameplay from them.

Good line up. Not sure why they threw in the multiplatform titles though. Should have just been timed exclusives and full exclusives like Sony's recent promotional video.

Nice ad. Not surprised to see people trying to pick it apart though. Gotta LOL @ "not enough exclusives" and "no release dates in sight".

Why concentrate on these 2 guys trying to downplay that ad? Why not ignore them and concentrate on the other 80-90% comments from people that overall like or love the ad?

The commercial is pretty good. It does a good job selling the X1, but I still don't think there are enough reason to choose it over the PS4.

The beginning ? no hype ^^ The Beginning is now with Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth, The Witness, Gravity Rush Remaster for PS4. Naruto UNS4 multi and Street Fighter V in 2 weeks for PS4. That is the reason: I can not understand why Microsoft always says things - do not vote that way. "the best games lineup in the xbox historie? that is a joke right ? Now: its nothing new for xboxone again! But microsoft say and say some crazy things in the last time. The 360 was good, the xb1 has only the same "action/shooter"-games. Its not exciting (my personally opinion) and january-march are very boring. i dont like the new MS-marketing-words-politic.

Gotta show the uninformed public that you have the games that want, too. Otherwise, they think "game X" is exclusive to one console.

 

I guess.

Why concentrate on this one post where someone is laughing at 2 guys trying to downplay that ad? Why not ignore it and concentrate on the other 80-90% comments from people that overall like or love the ad?

I did but still there should be nothing wrong with this trailer, but let's end the discussion here.

People always mention if there is downplaying in threads so why are you concentrating on him mentioning 2 people? But it seems there are more people who who are doing this like my next reply.

I think you are just not into Xbox is what I can tell in your comment.
