that was microsofts second biggest failure. they won't do it again (GTA V tmed exclusive)

i hope its soulcalibur 5 timed exclusive or assassins creed 3 timed exclusive, or maybe perfect dark 2.

Um... why does a title need to be bigger to replace it? Why can't MS just think "Hey guys... we know GeoW is a big seller and will sell bucket loads. We know it doesn't need to depend on the holiday boost. Let's try and make a new franchise bigger by giving it the holiday treatment"

I find that more reasonable than thinking GTA5 is timed exclusive considering they paid 50 million for a timed exclusive on 2 DLC.

The Halo story is over. Are we going to get a prequel trilogy like SW? Time to move on. Way too early to guess what will be the headliner 20 months from now. It depends on how various IP's do this fall and on Natal as well. We need more info.

I'll stick with my fall 2012 prediction for the nextbox. If anyone does new hw in 2011 it may be Nintendo. With sales like this maybe not.

There is no way MW3 will be exclusive to anything. I wouldn't be surprised if it launched on the 360/PS3/Wii/PC/PSP/DS/Ipad/mobile all on the same day.

Hopefully Microsoft comes up with a couple of New IP's. Sequels are fun and all, but something new would be better.

would the first be the console itself?? or....

They won't, because they basically can't

M$ doesn't have enough control over Epic to chose when they release Gears 3. I think a delay to April was long enough for them, and M$ won't be able to beat Gears of War, because other than GTA or CoD exclusivity, which is not going to happen, the only thing they could do would be a Bungie Halo 4, which seems unlikely

i hate duke nukem because they stole that line from the movie They Live. dont say no they didnt because they live came out in 1988, and duke nukem came in 91.

Come on Windows 2000. That's easy.

Why do people think that a new IP needs to beat GeOW3. A new IP or even a existing IP now created for the 360 in its prime just needs to be an exciting quality title.
