All I need is exclusives. Not timed exclusives but solid first party exclusives.

They should increase Xbox Live Gold to $70 per year and invest that extra money in exclusives.


you would pay more live charges just to play online games that in turn would get you more exclusives?

Yeah. Or rather I would let the others pay. Because I don't have Xbox Live Gold myself.

Two Worlds II PC version. And possible the PS3 version too if lots of VGC guys are getting that version.

You plan to get the PS3 version possibly, yes?

The 360 has the biggest FPS exclusive and TPS excusive franchises.  It sells the most FPS games and takes the biggest share from practically all FPS multiplatform games.  Is there a reason why is wouldn't be the shooterbox?

Where does he say it will remain the "shooterbox" and where did the original article say that?

Nowhere... so why, in YOUR view, is it a shooterbox?

.....Almost as insulting as the old PS3 has no games bullshit.

 

actually the MS guy says the exact opposite of your headline.. "And it's not just shooters, either; Thompson added that "whether people like racing, dancing, FPS, strategy... whatever they like we'll be bringing out franchises that we think they'll love".

The OP did say "shooter box (plus some dancing and Forza)".  So that's three genres already.  Lost Odyssey and Alan Wake are the 360 titles for me which aren't shooters.  But Thompson did say, "but yes, first-person shooters are a great genre of product that have served us very well and will continue to serve us well in the future."  So you cannot blame one's interpretation of  "shooter box" while also given the general perception as most people who have bought the 360 do so for high profile titles such as Halo, COD, Gears of War, etc.  Welcome to the masses, mate.  And one more thing...

 

...Shooterbox.

 

Grow up and get... over... it...



Hackers are poor nerds who don't wash.

With Reach likely to be Bungie's last ever Halo release, 360-exclusive FPS titles are thin on the ground - as Sony readies Killzone 3 for release in February next year on PS3.

But Microsoft - which still owns the rights to the Halo franchise - has told CVG that 360 fans needn't worry.

"We'll be looking to have lots of FPS games, ideally exclusive to us [in future]," Microsoft UK boss Neil Thompson told us. 

"I'm not going to make any announcements about any FPS games we have in the pipeline right now - because that will lose me my job - but yes, first-person shooters are a great genre of product that have served us very well and will continue to serve us well in the future. We will be bringing great products out... that's the one thing I can commit to."

And it's not just shooters, either; Thompson added that "whether people like racing, dancing, FPS, strategy... whatever they like we'll be bringing out franchises that we think they'll love".

I wonder which third parties may (or may) not be developing FPS games exclusive to the 360!

More from Epic perhaps?

In a way it's kinda exciting to see who MS will partner with, given the wealth of 3rd partys out there.

Do you mean Sacred 1 or 2 and did it have main campaign co-op or was it a different campaign for online co-op?

Yeah there's a lot of people who hate Oblivion for illegitimate reasons. And the soundtrack is truly terrific, one of the absolute best, I love the soundtrack so much.

lol I'm happy you do that because Oblivion means so much to me it's not even funny. And now that you put it that way, Oblivion did ruin gaming for me to some extent (but at the same time increased my affection for it).

But the next Elder Scrolls could come out in only one year, in Fall 2011!
