Yeah sure.

He said the same lines before E3 2014 " we have too many games to show, i don't know what to do ; ) ".

Come back in one year phil and say the same thing again.


This, and then Microsoft Gamescom was boring and Microsoft TGS was...Well wasnt.


He is a good marketing guy, he knows what to say to make peopel dream, but reality is better, it's nice to want things though.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

So if all their heavy hitting titles are hitting holiday 2015, to me that says the early/middle part of 2015 is a drought ...


Yup! Huge third party releases like Witcher 3, Evolve, Battlefield and Batman Will cover for them though. 

Fable Legends Beta suggests a spring/summer release date and I have a very strong feeling we'll be seeinf Gears of War Collection will arrive before september.

Who will be the developer?

Dunno, if its a remaster it can easily be outsourced. Just saw cliffy tweet about it earlier in the week obviously in trolling
 manor but then I thought about and it would a very MS thing to do. Gears 4 isn't coming anytime soon, just as they did it with Halo they could it with gears. With how big the franchise is and the fact that the games were on DVDs it'd be a surprise if MS didn't do all 3 games remastered onto 1 Bluray before Gears 4. Should be a question of when, surely?



The other option is you have till end 2015 to save money for stocking up on some games.

I like it when games are delayed to other parts of the year. Just do not want Tomb Raider delayed. That is one game I want right away.

they should try pushing 1 or 2 of them forward to cover that gap from january to september.


But maybe the games aren't ready for that gap?


That's bad management then. 

Anyway releasing half finished games woudln't be better than overflowing the market during one quarter.



Which reads: we have nothing coming out until fall 2015, but don't worry!! After Holiday 2015 we'll be packed, so much that we we'll have to move games up to Holiday 2016!

lol Phil Spencer sure learned the "art" of PR quite fast.
