Anyway, MSFT had a very large presence at GDC today. They seen very committed to gaming overall.

Yes great commitment to gaming but zero to Xbox and 100% to PC Ms is simply saying f**k Xbox One owners we don't give a shit about you, all we want is to capitalize PC gaming with f2p games.

Lol I hope not, they definely gave a lot of love to PC owners, but hopefully they are not getting over on faithful Xbox owners.

If most of the Microsoft games make their debut on PC it feels to me I have wasted my money on XBox One.

ill soon have a strong enough pc . Dont really need ms  to pull this shit.wtf are they thinking. 

I believe Phil has lost his mind he is actually building a steam competitor and at the same time destroying Xbox. I mean my Xbox One has started to become more useless every time Phil says something. For me I could have used $450 to buy a much better GPU and RAM for my PC and get most games running at 1080p60fps with modding and other tools but I went with Xbox One because of games and now I am hearing many exclusives will be coming to PC as well, while I am sure not all will make their debut but may will, we are already seeing that tradition with Fable Legends, Ori, Max, State of Decay and many more to come. Right now I feel like Microsoft is becoming anti-xbox at this point if they announce arrival of Forza Horizon 2, Sunset and Halo on Pc I won't be surprised at all. I feel ditched by MS.

I think they are moving towards future of gaming on PC and this might be their last console.

I think we need to wait a little longer before bringing out the pitchforks. Games like Ori, Fable, State of Decay, project Spark, Max.....fine, but if games like Halo, Gears, and Forza which are the backbone XbOX franchises them people have the right to complain. It doesn't affect me as I haven't gamed on PC since about 2007, but I can understans the reservations of some.

See I now how important games like Halo, Gears and Forza are for Xbox but you cannot sell a console on three exclusives and these smaller exclusives do help with titles like Quantum Break and Crackdown at this point I am sure QB and Crackdown will make their debut on PC and that is the reason for delay. Even if big 3 xbox games don't release on PC they might release few months after Xbox release which is very likely to happen if current trend continues. If this continues my love for Xbox might die.

You believe they care about Xbox I doubt they do if they would care about Xbox One owners they would give them some incentive like great exclusives for Xbox One only right now it feels like games are announced for PC and get announced for Xbox one just for sake of releasing the game.

Microsoft is working on a 'hardcore' game controller for the Xbox One

Microsoft's Xbox One got off to a rough start thanks to a mixed message about the target audience for the device. With that issue behind them, they have returned their focus to the gaming community and now sources are telling us that they are looking to launch a 'hardcore' game controller at E3 2015.

Details are still slim on what all will be included with the controller and how it will be differentiated than its current devices but they are going after their loyal customers who love FPS and driving games. If you need any proof that there is a market for a new controller, take a look at Scuf Gamingwho sells a plethora of modified enthusiast controllers.

We are being told that the current target, if the project gets the full green-light, will be for E3 2015 which takes in mid June. As with all internal projects, deadlines are subject to change and they can becanceled at anytime.

This week Microsoft is in San Francisco at the Game Developers Conference where they are talking about DX 12 and some other new features that are coming to Windows and Xbox for developers in the near future.

With the slim XB1? =P

Good if true Xbox 360 was a great controller for fps would be better if they draw inspiration from 360 controller rather than Xbox One. This controller could be accompanied with Xbox Slim.

I think they're saving the "Xbox love" for E3. Right now they're focused on winning back the PC gaming fanbase they lost when they abandoned PC support a few years ago.

I hope I am wrong and MS wins me back but if they do shit like 'available on Xbox and PC' I am not going to leave them.

I agree. The question is how focussed are they on Windows vs Xbox? I think a 1 year of being a console exclusive would be a fair compromise.

If more Xbox One games make their debut on PC it makes xbox useless for many since a large part of cake will be available on PC so why buy an XBox One.

I don't want 1 year exclusive shit either full exclusive or no exclusive or announce earlier that game will make debut on other platforms after specific time like they did with Tomb Raider
