Ok so.many in this thread are not even reading what Phil has said.

He wants to bolster IPs owned by Microsoft.

He isn't talking about 3rd party owned IPs like tomb raider.

On the 3rd party exclusives, its not microaodts fault that they have more money than Sony. Why shouldn't Microsoft get timed exclusive deal or exclusive like titanfall if they fund some or all of the development? Funding a game for the dev takes a lot of pressure of the team and gets great support in the process. It makes no sense to dis Microsoft for helping to fund development. In some cases it allows devs to get the game out earlier ans gives them access to support from Microsoft studios.

So basically Phil is saying he's concentrating a lot more than previous heads of Xbox on their own IPs like banjo, conker, killer instinct etc. And he's lucky enough to also have money available ti get 3rd party games to. It's Sonya fault they don't have any money. Not phils.

Yeah....most of the games which made the launch for MS was either made by third party or not even owned by MS. It will continue to be that way throughout the gen.

Why. Please explain.

 

Phil hasn't lied yet and has been totally honest even about areas that need improving. If he sys he is different.ofrm.previous people in the position then he.is. he's already told rare to work on non Kinect games. He made Xbox one available without Kinect and he's looking like dropping the parity clause for same day releases. He's also going to rare next month to see their non Kinect projects.

 

They own Alan wake and own quantum break. There is also nothing wrong with having an outside team work on an ip Microsoft ow. If its a good game what's the difference? Its actually good rothe industry as other devs get o have great support for a game they are making even if its owned by Microsoft.

 

Let's see what Phil announces from now till e3. We hve athe Xbox event in February next year. Phils been awesome so far, so putting him in the asme bracket as don mattrick is just silly.

 

We will see banjo 3 this gen. Also conker to. He's bringing phantom dust back owned by Microsoft which he already announced. And they built a brand new studio to look after gears.
