it's the same every year. just before E3 people hype MS up and say this is the year they unleash a load of megatons, and every year they barely have anything to offer, and some of the most interesting stuff gets cancelled.

it will be the same next year too. I wonder where those people still optimistic get their hopes from. It's not like you can make a first party AAA studio in secret anymore, so where are new MS games meant to come from?

In other words 'please forget this is launching on PC as well. 

What exactly is so terrible about timed exclusives?

Xbox, as in the console xbox does not really have exclusives in the traditional sense of the word. Instead you have W10/Xbox exclusives, and I applaud them for that, though I'm no sure how smart it is to not have your game on Steam if you're gonna launch it on PC anyway.

However even talking about Xbox/W10 exclusives, there were surprisingly few of them (at E3). I kept thinking they were gonna announce a AAA Xbox/W10 exlcusive sometime in the show, and then suddenly the show was over and they hadn't (except Forza, but it's a yearly title, it doesn't have quite the same impact). They did show some games that looked interesting, but they were almost all multiplat or timed console exclusive (so already on PC, and will come to the PS4 later). In the end, it was a good conference for gamers, but it wasn't a very good conference for Microsoft.

Its actually worse than that.

why?

Well Ori 2 was leaked like a month before hand.

Everyone was expecting there to be a new Forza 7 motorsports there.

There was not one exclusive surprise at MS's Xbox E3.

It was a lack luster E3.

I don't intend to offend MS fans, but I think this gen Sony is completely obliterating MS, just because of the quantity and quality of PS4's exclusives. I get that people who are big fans of GoW, Halo or Forza will always going to buy a MS console. But I think generally speaking, Sony takes the lead by miles. I find the difference quite astonishing.

I thought Black desert was exclusive aswell. Or is it just one of those "released first"?

Anyways, we all know MS let itself slip away with first party software management. They need to stop beeing bad at that. Lionhead's closing is inexcusable when you should've gotten them working on Fable 4, the only RPG franchise you had and needed to diversify your portfolio.

The game will be on Xbox One before anything else

Willing to bet most of the timed exclusives will. And all the 5 console exclusives they showed forza, Crackdown 3, Luckys Tale, SoT, State of Decay, Ori will be out by next E3.

What is a 10X?

Its called a Xbox One X.  or XOX.

It ll be out a few months there, before anywhere else.

A.k.a a Timed exclusive.
