Around the Network

this guy keep droping megatons after megatons



Very excited about the pontential 2014 schedule ahead. If we go by what he/she saying is true, the X1 has Titanfall, Kinect Sports Rivals, Project Spark, Forza Horizon 2, Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, and Halo 2 Anniversary leading the big releases this year. With possibly 1 or 2 more exclusives for targeting the Japanese market.



This is everything the insider has mentioned so far. Luckily someone came up with this list.

  • Forza Horizon: "Fall 2014, probably September. Super sexy weather system and... shit tons of co-op/social stuff. 1080P and open-world, so you can road trip with your bros."UPDATE: Weather system powered by "the cloud"
  • White Xbone incoming. UPDATE: In October with "fancy ass controller"
  • NEW: Limited 1 TB box in November
  • Why all the leaks? Scared you might get caught? "I am incapable of fear. Plus, this is such exciting stuff, and me talking about it ahead of time isn't going to hurt anything, truthfully. We're all chomping at the bit for it to come out. This is not bad. "
  • Halo Anniversary 2 will be 1080p, iffy on the 60fps, maybe not.
  • Quantum Break is Holiday 2014
  • Multiplayer confirmed for HA2, same devs as Halo Anniversary.
  • Sunset Overdrive is Fall 2014. UPDATE: October 2014
  • Is not Phil Spencer
  • Black Tusk cancelled project was called "Shangheist." May have involved stealing stuff from the Chinese (though I think that may have been a reference to the name and maybe not the gameplay? Not sure...)
  • Fable Legends is Summer 2015
  • Halo 2 Anniversary includes beta for Halo 5
  • Gears of War will probably need a 2.5 year dev time.
  • First Titanfall DLC is 45 days from release, then another one 120 days from release.
  • No Crackdown 3 news this year most likely, since it's a 2016 title.
  • A list w/dates of the rest of the Tier 2 and Tier 3 countries that Xbone will release in this year.
  • No info/idea on what Rare's up to, sadly.
  • $399 XB1 this year? "Maybe one without an Optical Disc Drive."

He/she is still going at it too.



in case you wanted to be more assured about this guy: a mod stated that other insiders like CBOAT gained trust be releasing truthful info that was later confirmed. CBOAT never gave out his identity to any of the mods. THIS guy did and was approved.

Wow that's an amazing list if true. If we do see a 399 Xbox One I'll probably hold out for it. Even if it doesn't have a disc drive.



lol Hope you guys keep me updated with the rumors, there's way too much for me to read through.



Out of all these leaks I really do think the Halo 2 Anniversary releasing this year is legit. Major Nelson already teased it with a random tweet about bees earlier this year. Not hard to figure out.



Damn!  So much i had to read through O.O 

Ok, just to make sure is this all the updates other than CBOAT being a dirty filthy liar?  I need to update the title if so.

PS  Halo 2 this year and Halo 5 next year im happy with if true.

Agreed. I think Halo 2 Anniversary is coming this year, but I think Halo 5 is too, 343 already said 2014 afterall. Halo 2 Anniversary will release a few month earlier so as not to conflict with Halo 5's sales, and it'll come with a Halo 2 remake map pack for Halo 5 that will coincide with Halo 5's release. That's my guess anyway.


Well they never said halo 5 was coming.  They said Halo Xbox One was coming.  MSFT was being so discreet witht he name that i have been curious to see if it actually was halo 5.  And as i said before im happy with this ifit turns out true.  In my opinion Halo 5 coming in two years is two quick.  I want them to take their time so it can be as good as it possibly can.  Plus i love halo 2 so i have no issue xD
