You already made up your mind in getting a console based on a game that could be crap and we have seen little about? Odd.


QB has been the game that has caught my eye the most out of the XB1 exclusives.  I also loved Alan Wake, so I have faith in what the developer can do.  That said I am not blindly going to make the purchase.  If the game continues to evolve to meet my expectations then it will be the game release that gets me to pull the trigger.


Fair enough, I thought alan wake wad mediocre, gameplay was poor, decent story.

Well I don't know for sure, but this is what is expected:
Gears 4
Quantum Break
Crackdown
ScaleBound
Phantom Dust
****Kamp keeps hinting at Banjo 3

Pretty standard, nothing historic there. We dont know how good any will be, most are small sellers or niche. Crackdown is a b tier franchise, wb like allan wake will struggle to sell a million, phantom and scalebound wont break 500 k. Last gears without epic was poor, not the same seriesa now.

Well if that is what you call standard, I would like to see what you call great.

It cerrainly is not historic. A bunch of niche games and b tier franchises. Gears is not the same anymore. Its a fairly standard lineup nothing special, again how good they will be you dont even know. Hyperbole at its best

Looks like a pretty solid list to me as well. 2016 with that line up, spread over the year,  would make me happy. It's a shame microsoft is struggling to get exclusives out now though.

Gears still has a chance of being the best selling game out of those games, but it does feel that its a game not many outside the USA are calling for. 

Quantum Break is at least interesting and AAA, Crackdown, wont do much - hasnt really got a massive following, Scalebound/Phanton Dust are B tier games. So just an ok line up for 16 as far as I am concerned. QB is the one I would be most interested in.

It is good if the games are, we dot know, but it is hardly historic lol, which was what was said.

Gears had a title, made by a different company, that wasn't even as bad as people make it out to be. Might want to hold off on writing of gears until there is more than one title that doesn't quite reach the heights the first three set. Like sonic, sonic isn't the same anymore.

Gears the BEST tps ever, Platimun Games, Remedy, the first game ever heavily based on cloud processing, a Cult Classic in Phantom Dust, a revisit to on old Rare favorite, all on one console in one year would be historic. We can agree to disagree though, not everyone has the same taste, but that is some great stuff I listed there.

***Forza Horizon 3 is a given as well.

Welp...

I guess Fable isn't coming before september.

Not a huge downer on MS's line up but god blimey this gen is getting to such slow start. I feel like things don't actually begin to Witcher 3 lol
