Damn! I didn't select a Forum so it erased my original message. What are your thoughts on Microsofts E3 Press Conference?
To be clear MS announced 2 core 360 exclusives, and 6 new Kinect exclusives:
- Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition
- Halo 4
and for Kinect
- Dance Central 2
- Disneyland
- Fable: The Journey
- Kinect Sports: Season 2
- Minecraft (XBL)
- Sesame Steet: Once Upon a Monster (don't think this was officially announced before)
and Project Kingdoms becomes Ryse
However 17 announced exclusive Kinect games (14 for 2011) were not talked about. On the list of missed games there is: Project Dragon, Gears of War: Exile, Steel Batallion, Rise of Nightmares, Heavy Fire: Afghanistan, Codename D, Robots Dance Central, Doodle Jump, Fruit Ninja Kinect, Haunt, Hole in the Wall, Kinect Me, Kinectalloons, Lets Dance with Mel B, Michael Phelps, The Gunslinger, and Wipeout in the Zone.
Overall though, has 360 become Kinect? Did MS forget about core gamers, or are third party games enough to satisfy?
So for fall 2011, the confirmed exclusive games window is
- Dance Central 2
- Forza Motorsport 3
- Gears of War 3
- Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition
- Kinect Sports: Season 2
- Star Wars Kinect
- The Witcher 2
Announced 2011 games
- Codename D
- Heavy Fire: Afghanistan
- Project Dragon
- Rise of Nightmares
- Steel Battallion: Heavy Armor
- Wipeout in the Zone
If I'm mising any games, or have something wrong. Let me know.
I personally am disapointed. 360 to me has become Halo, Gears, Forza, Fable and Kinect. I'm not a fan of Fable, and I was really hoping to see Project Kingdoms become a proper core title. Also since Kinect's lineup is meh, I'm not tempted to get one. However for those who have a Kinect, 360 doesn't look too bad, but a lot of great Kinect titles were ignored alltogether. Also there was no Forza or Halo demo, and Gears 3 isn't enough for exclusive demos. Halo 4 at the end just barely saved the show to me, but overall im disappointed.
Edit: Also no word on prior announced core 360 exclusives such as XCOM, MechWarrior, etc
