Microsoft recently registered a trademark for the name “Throne Together.” Filed under game software, it’s possible the title could be for a new IP. Prior to the Xbox One’s launch, the company openly stated that it was investing around $1 billion towards exclusive games for its new console. Perhaps this new trademark will fit into that game plan at some point during the Xbox One’s lifespan. Of course we’ll be keeping an eye out to see if anything pops up.

I like the name. Too bad there isn't more information, we don't know the genre or premise of the game or even if it's a game, it could be one of the upcoming Xbox tv shows.

It says Game software

I hope Quantum Break gets advertised allot and Remedy gets the recognition they deserve, I know Alan Wake didn't sell enough right? Even though it was awesome, The major releases will sell the Xbox next year e.g. Titanfall, Halo, Quantum Break, Project Spark might help a little but I think people will just get it for PC, Sunset Overdrive should be a major release and Black Tusk game if it's ready for next year and Fable Legends if it gets good reviews, I think most people will be more wary of buying a Fable now so if it doesn't get good reviews it's most likely not going to sell good


 I think Alan Wake sold well just not well at its initial price point. BTW how does that work? In the beginning i know the games are priced higher=more money for developers. Is it the same as when it drops say $30?

Well other things take a cut off the money right? I think Microsoft takes some, the company, the retailer so when a price drops they will all get less most likely, Idk if they would make a profit, depends how much the game cost to make probably which is why I might be going digital for some lesser known companies this time around since they make more profit from digital but Idk how it works when they drop the price tbh Lol


hmmm pretty sure shares are decided by percentages.... so the ratios stay the same while the price drops....

If only MS would buy Remedy then they could just put some of that game money towards a new Alan Wake

Anybody else noticing the shift in the perception of the Xbox One? Leading up to release there was alot of negativity surrounding the Xbox One, but after 4 weeks of strong sales it seems that people are starting to respect it. I've actually seen known Sony fanboys who had formerly derided the Xbox One and said that it would fail, call it strong competition and a close 2nd place.

I see what you're saying dude. I see a lot less trolling of the One on YT, and IGN. Maybe new consoles bring in new fans. I see less DRM jokes, Sports, COD, Doritoes, Mountain Dew, Spybox, etc. I think a lot of haters are surprised at the sales, everyone thought it was DOA, but it's done good so far. 2014 shall be interesting.

Titanfall, Destiny, Halo, Quantum Break, Kinect Sports Rivals and PVZ, that's the Sho Nuff list. Then the maybe list is The Division, , the next COD, and D4. Way more than enough games for me.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.
