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.

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

I am going to sound like a hyprocrite, but SO IMO was needed by MS with the bundle. Coming into the holiday period MS can really promote this game whilst if it released in FEB it wouldnt be talked about as much

Yeah, Sunset is needed now. I think a couple weeks earlier would have been even better though, give it some more distance from Halo and COD.


100 percent agree, thats why i want MS to have a specific bundle with this game (like they have already) but in adequate stock not limited. Also do some TV advertisments and maybe even through in MCC with the bundle lol

If they had also  a JRPG exclusive releasing now we would say 'that is very wise from MS to have a JRPG exclusive now because FH2/SO/MCC are nice but will not lead to many sales but this JRPG will cause some sales in Japan and also some JRPG fans in the West will get a Xone for this game...Good decision from P.Spencer..

MS needs to drop the price in Europe, X1 skus are no where to be seen in uk amazon


yeah just today I saw in an advertisement for the biggest German electronics retailer "XBO with SO for 399" and "PS4 with Fifa 15 and second controller for 449". So pretty much a "it costs the same" for people. How does MS not get that it would help if there would be a "XBO with SO for 349" to have at least a little market for them and not everyone taking a PS4 when both cost the same lol...

I mean, it can't be their interest to give Sony the whole market without doing anything against it. They should try at least in the first years to get a decent userbase in Europe or th euserbase will be so small compared to PS4 that even those interested in a XBO in the next years won't buy it because they have nobody of their friends to play with...

Thats unfortunate that the wiiu is overtracked on VGC, but many of us has said this already with good reason so for anybody not expecting this should have listened

Indeed. Things between XB1 - WiiU are hotting up.

After adjustments gap should be 1m, but XB1 is still seemingly undertracked. 1.75m on shelves for XB1 is a lot .....

We will see if ioi makes adjustments.  IM not sure he will immediately. Prob in the future but it may be a while, for all three
