Quantum Break apparently now scheduled for Spring 2016:


I hope that will be confirmed and the game won't be delayed again...

Here's hoping Scalebound is Q1/Q2 2016 as well, QB + SB would make for a solid 1st half lineup combined with some smaller exclusives.

I'd prefer if they spread out the exclusives throughout the year so that they don't end up in a situtation like the PS4 is in now, where they released 2 big exclusives one month apart from eachother and the rest of the year had nothing.

I've played that game 8 times already, and I will probably replay it at least as many times before the end of the generation. Best 20 bucks I've spent in a long time!

Wow, its that good?! I bought it when it released but haven't got around to playing it yet. 

I love metroidvania games.  Guacamelee, Axiom Verge, Symphony of the Night, Batman Arkham Asylum, Super Metroid...

My favourite, the one which I think achieved the best balance on all gameplay aspects, is Super Metroid. But Ori and the Blind Forest comes really close to beating it. In fact, I am still undecided on that. I don't have much negative to say about the game, which should tell you a lot. The compelling and uber fun gameplay, the amazing soundtrack, the inspired level design with matching atmosphere, the amazing visuals (really, that game is by far the best looking 2D game ever made), the pixel-perfect controls, the charm of the characters and their animations, the exhilirating escape sequences, the incredible potential for speed runs... It has it all. And while the story isn't particularly ground breaking, what little it has is also pretty good and told with a lot of heart.


This is currently my game of the year so far, and as it stands, it's also my current game of the gen.

You wanted hyperbole? My comment right here is the definition of that word. Sorry for that. But yeah, I really, really love that game. xD

They have alot of exclusives coming next year though as far as we know. Scalebound, Quantum Break, Crackdown, Gears 4, Forza Horizon 3 (or a rumored 1st entry in a 3rd Forza series). And it's not even E3 yet, who knows how many more 2016 exclusives wil be annouced at E3 and Gamescom. In order to have a spread out lineup they'll need at least 2 AAA's in the first half of the year, or else they'll all be stuffed into the 2nd half of 2016 like they are this year.

But how many of those will be delayed? We all thought 2015 would be packed with new exclusives and yet we've hardly seen any. So we shouldn't say the same thing for 2016.

Sounds like something you should take up with the mods, see no reason why you posted that in here. 



You know Noble, I've kept quiet about this for a while because I figured you'd change it but......your profile pic is just....off. You usually pick some really nice ones, but that chick just really rubs me the wrong way. Get rid of her already
