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.

You can thank that on two new studios making those games.
