| smroadkill15 said: MS does need to be more aggessive with exclusives. 3rd party alone won't push a console to sell well. Overall, I think the Crackdown 3 delay is a good thing. Crackdown franchise is not a system seller. It has a solid fanbase but nothing to push consoles in a significant way. This will give the game some breathing room to sell better. |
Well. As far as I know, Crackdown 1+2 weren't massive console hardware pushing sellers, so I don't expect Crackdown 3 to break that precedent. - Happy to be proven wrong though, Microsoft needs the success.
2018 should prove the be the interesting year for Xbox.
Sea of Thieves, Crackdown, Halo 6, Forza, State of Decay 2, Ori and The Will of the Wisps... Gears of War 5 might get pushed out to 2019, but 2018 could still happen.
But 2019 could end up being a repeat of 2017 with only Forza holding down the fort. Yuck.
Microsoft needs to build out it's first and second party studios... But that will take time and investment, something which they aren't doing right now as they are maintaining investment levels.
