I remember a few months back that Phil Spencer stating that there were so many games goming out in 2015 that he didnt know if he could squeeze them all in the schedule.   

Well I been looking at the lists and videos of 2015 releases and they are mostly 3rd party games that i can play elsewhere.  I felt as though they made it seem like they were coming strong, but screamride(looks terrible), Ori (looks cool), Quantum Break (could go either way), Halo 5( not a halo fan).  Is there any other game I am missing here.  I sure hope so cuz if not Im gonna be let down with the X1 this year.  Terrible.  OK RANT OVER.

Oh and FYI I have all consoles so 90% of the time I am buying 3rd party games for my PS4 because they usually look better. 


So... you forgot quite a few games here.

- Halo 5
- Quantum Break
- Screamride
- Ori

(u mentioned those)

add

- Tomb Raider
- Fable Legends
- State of Decay
- Forza 6

All of them are confirmed 2015 games.

The problem with your list and i kind of agree with OP in this,is that most of this games doesn't have release date yet which can mean 2 things:

-It can be delayed for 2016

- it will be released second half of 2015/after E3.

in the first situation,OP would be right to be mad cause Phil and the PR people were talking about this games for 2015.If it is the second situation, then,microsoft will put their exclusives to fight against each other and against third parties like they did with MCC/SO/FH which is not a good thing for consumers cause people will have to choose one or two games and it is not good for the games(specially the new IPs).

I personally cannot wait until an updated OS releases that fixes the issues I have with it.  No doubt it will receive an overhaul around November. 

I've used an Xbox One and I have to agree. Last generation, I was a 360 gamer and that UI was butter. Everything was right where you needed it and accessible with one or two clicks. It was also intuitive enough so that people could learn the ins and outs quickly without much hassle.

The Xbox One UI is, on the other hand, a mess. It has a slick overlay, but moving around and finding your way is just not good at all. It feels like they let some Windows people build the damn thing instead of people who know how to make a good console UI.

Hoepfully, they realize this and do a massive overhaul.



Phil personally went to the ops house, shook hands and promised him, hand on heart, that everything he would say would defy logic, standard delays and development to be exactly as he said.
