i kind of hear you, i do want support for the full cycle of a console not cutting out a year or two early.  ..but this is a full year after the next gen launch.  cross gen holds games back,.. or else next gen really is nothing more than higher resolution and frame rate.  either way there is a lot to be dissappointed about.

Even for games that are not cross gen. It is just that, in some cases it is barely that too.

Cross gen? Really?
Come on, let last gen rest in peace already.

Cool that it is cross-gen. Less incentive to upgrade till xbox two and ps5 show up with 80 gb ram.

Why are they announcing it now? If this was not big enough, does Microsoft have the mother of all E3's lined up ahead.


So it can get a day of press coverage to itself. This will be a big part of there press conference still.

Unfortunatley for them MKX and Homefront2 also got announced today, these guys should coordinate a bit better :)

That would only be true if the ps3 wasn't getting any more exclusives, however it is ... so what were you saying?


Really? PS3 is getting some Sony made exclusives in its 9th year (2015)?

Guess I missed the announcement.


Titanfall was made by Microsoft? I guess thats why it wasn't on the ps3/ps4

Cross gen isn't so bad. I've not seen any other manufacturer support their console this long.


PS1 and PS2 would like a word with you.

PS3 still remains to be scene (despite it being a year behind you judge it based on time into next gen)

also the dreamcast.

Snes just had a game released for it recently.

I am very happy with this announcement, forza horizon was an unexpected GEM. Cross gen is fine but for MS it is better that Halo 2 anniversary will not be cross gen...
