For people who say this. Do you guys really expect Microsoft to drop their top 3 games. I get people might not be big fans of these games but these are the first party games that people buy an Xbox for and they have millions of dedicated fans. 

Nobody is saying releasing Halo, Gears, and Forza is a bad thing. Its when that is all you are mostly releasing...again...thats the problem. These franchises have all come out for this console generation already and its earned them a solid 3rd place. The point is they need to build upon these franchises with new experiences. Almost everything they've shown as an exclusive is a sequel, and again sequels to games that have helped earn a solid 3rd place.

They have slowed down on how many Gears and Halo games though compared to last gen. Its also been almost 3 years since the last Halo and almost 2 since the last Gears. They are due for new games. From what they showed from Forza and Gears it looked like they are adding new experiences. Forza has a shared world system now and different seasons along with a 60fps mode. Gears Tactics is an RTS and Gears has never been an RTS before. Also Gears 5 they changed how the camera works, Looks more like a regular TPS than the gameplay of Gears 1-4 which should be interesting. Can't say much for Halo since 343i did not show much.
