I honestly can't tell what is worse, VGChartz or spending 200+ hours on Sims4 in about 2 1/2 weeks.

No clue who this is directed at xD But I have too much to play and I hate it. My backlog is ever growing.

They've never brought it for me and I don't think they will in the foreseeable future

So wait cause some people don't like halo, gears and forza those studio are suppose to suck and MS too???? Considering halo is the best Sci FI FPS out there if not the best, gears same deal for TPS and forza also on console for SIM racing and horizon for open world racer I can hardly see how they can be called a joke... You don't like it fine... But it's still an excellent first party line up considering it's the best in their respective categories...
There is reason I don't get or like the other platform and a big one is because they don't have those excellent games... And there suppose great 1st party don't produce anything that even remotely tingle my man parts with curiosity or excitement.... QB, see of thieves, scalebound, recore, crackdown interest me way more than PS offering..maybe ninty but they are in their own category IMO

forgot halo wars best RTS on console....

with killer instinct one of the best fighter.... Actually the competition is lucky they don't do platformers and action,RPG they'd be dominating every genre by a mile

Hmm...needs more Battletoads and Perfect Dark.

Sony had GOW III Remastered, Until Dwan and Tearaway: Unfolded in Q3, so not a barren Q3 lineup.

Okay finally got around to reading it. 

I completely agree. Although I don't have an xbone, I loved my 360 and OG Xbox so I feel like I can provide an unbiased opinion here. 

Basically, the 1st party of Microsoft consists of mediocre small indie developers, and Halo, Gears, Forza, and Fable makers. 

I am a huge long time fan of halo. Until 4. Halo 3 is one of the best games of all time, 1 and 2 were amazing. Reach was also amazing and underrated for the story. 

Halo 4 was stupid. (my opinion 😛)  gameplay felt weird and clunky and the story was meh. 

Kind of hyped for 5 but I prefer Bungies Halo direction over 343. 

Also enjoy gears. The first 2 were great. Didn't really play the 3rd and I heard judgement sucked. Interested with gears 4 tho it looks different and promising. 

I can't stand Forza/GT/all sim racers. They are garbage (opinions are nice) and I think should stop being made. Very boring. 

Lionhead is a bad developer that never lived up to their potential. Their best game to date is fable 2 all the way from 2008. Empty promises and stupid on rails games made me completely lose interest in them. Shame. 

But yeah. I agree. 5/10 seems fair. Personally, no 1st party game for the Xbone up to today has even got me contemplating buying an Xbone. 

Like you said though to be fair no 1st party game on the ps4 has been amazing either. Although I did love Infamous and bloodborn. 

Yeahh. CHVRCHESSSSS

So is this graphic meant to be impressive?

It features multiple critical failures, Ryse, Crimson Dragon, Kinect Sports Rivals & Zoo Tycoon.

It involves lots if indie games, which is fine in and of itself, but seeing as you are comparing it to PS4, pales against the amount of exclusive indies Sony's machine has.

It has Killer Instinct three times. I know it has new seasons each year, but it would be like listing PS4 exlcusives and putting every MLB game seperately.

And on top of that, most of the highly rated games are second and third party, like Dead Rising 3, Sunset Overdrive, Titanfall and Forza Horizon 2.

Next year is similar. I am excited about the X1 lineup next year actually, but games like ReCore, Halo Wars 2, Scalebound, Quantum Break and Forza Horizon 3 aren't made by first party.

This graphic highlights the problem really.

This is hilarious, now I know why I didn't even bother to look up the graphic.

Pretty much it seems. You can make an equally negative rundown for either of the other companies quite easily.
