MS MUST have something for Q1/Q2. Screamride and State of Decay are not enough to go up against Sony's offerings.

Quantum Break needs to be in the summer too, around June.

Q1 - Screamride & State of Decay
Q2 - Quantum Break & _____________
Q3 - Halo 5, Fable Legends
Q4 - Tomb Raider, Forza 6

They need more.

MS needs 2-3 exclusives a month, they had early X360 life + 20 exclusives a year...  1 exclusive for the West/1 For Japan or East and a great Indie game every month....     It is not that they can not it is that they don't really want, what is stopping them for not opening new companies and creating new IP's?  They have no money?

2-3 a month may be overdoing it a bit. Especially during the slower months of the year. 1 or 2 big ones (not indie crap) per quarter is plenty.

Overdoing? You never can release enough games, with X360 we had an amazing  line up and a lot of exclusives, it did not kill the X360 it made it popular. Only from Japan in like the first two years we had,   'Blue Dragon, Dear or alive 4, Ace combat, DOA 2 extreme, Dance revolution, Katamari,Phantasy Star, Rumble Roses,Warriors orochi, A Naruto game, Final Fantasy XI, Dead Rising, Over G Fighters, Kengo Bomberman, Ninety nights something, A tenchu game, Project sylpheed, and going on..

And this is with no Time exclusives included like Seece possible did.... , DW empires 5, Ridge racer, enchanted arms, Ninja gaiden II, eternal sonata, and more;..  ..

We got an indie game that nobody bought from Japan and possible in 2016 we have Scalebound,  lucky you  will not lose a lot of money if you want to buy only Japanese exclusives on Xone...   And I know very well that not all games were great those first years but we had choice and it did not hurt the x360...

You can overdo it. If too many games release too close to each other it will affect their sales. If it's some smaller games mixed in there then that's fine, but having a couple of big releases right next to each other isn't really a great idea.

Oh, and some of those games you listed weren't even exclusive. They were also on PS2, since PS3 hadn't released yet.

2-3 games were maybe on PS2 but that did not stop some of the Koei community to choose to buy a X360 early last gen...

You can't overdo it, that is something Don mattrick would say... Choice is very important and we don't buy all exclusives anyway like some here stated they not got FZ2 or SO and that is fine;..     

Having a lot of games was very important for the positive image of the X360 early last generation (except for the RROD issue)..  The X360 don't needed WItcher 2/Risen/Venetic/Ego Draconis/ or even Dark star one but for some it was a reason to get a X360 and I was happy that I choose;.

I agree its great to have alot of exclusives but if those are new IPS you dont want them to launch within a month or 2 against established franchises. However a constant stream is always welcomed as us xbox fans are dreading Q1 next year

So Sunset overdrive should have been released like in February instead?  Because that game released like in a month between two big franchises exclusives
