Scalebound 33 months, Crackdown 34-41 months, Halo Wars 2 18 months, Sea of Thieves 22 months , Halo 5 29 months, Fable Legends, 30+ months (if it wasn't cancelled, still announced early), Gears of War 4 16 months.

And you just proved my point. Them games are exceptions and its since MS announced them games too early you feel like they have nothing else to show.

However i think MS has relised after announcing them games too soon that its better to wait till you have proper release dates and when its closer to release.

Every year i keep hearing how MS are running out of exclusives cos "they only showed this number of games so thats all they have" . And every year they show people different. Its going to be no different next year, and the year after. MS will of showed newer games by then and people be like "This is all MS has they showed nothing else".

What the hell? How does that prove your point? You said Microsoft never shows games early like Sony, I just proved they did. And you could also add Quantum Break to that list. Lol, it doesn't matter the reason for which they announced their games early, they did.

Yes, I actually just saw that. Now we'll have too see if those games are "big". But it doesn't make sense, they're going to skip announcing their "big" games at E3, the biggest gaming event, just a month later to a smaller one? That doesn't make sense.

They did the same last year, remember how they would not talk about a certain games at E3 like Scalebound/Quantum Break/Crackdown etc.

Those games weren't announced at Gamescom. Scalebound and Crackdown were announced 14 months before that conference. There is a difference between announcing a game and showing gameplay for it.

Wakey wakey mods. This thread has gone on long enough.

In fact, 4 pages in, and not one ''mod'' has come in to say anything...hmmmm... I wonder why???

Instead of just moaning about the topic, why don't you tell me what's wrong with this thread? It's backed with pretty good reason as to why I don't think Microsoft will have many exclusives in late 2017/2018 and probably beyond.
