Microsoft needs to find a replacement third party exclusive to fill in the gaps. Here's hoping that Gears doesn't get pushed back either. To be honest, id much rather ReCore was pushed back, but I trust Platinum with quality, so at least I know something good is coming for 2017.

Is it just me or are people pretending to actually be interested in this game. Now don't get me wrong some folks are. But they are few. This game was gonna flop anyway. Kinda like Quantum Break but only worse.

Platinum Games titles might flop in sales, but the games are high in quality, which is why companies pay them. They make great games that pad out the ranks most consoles have. Sony is also getting an exclusive from them as well. Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo have all been paying them.

I swear I was thinking about this game getting delayed just 2 days before I saw this thread. I somehow just expected it

Because the E3 showing of it sucked? you could tell it wasnt anywhere near ready for a release.

I'm pretty sure Recore will get delayed also.

Already happened, also today. From spring to 2016 to just "2016".

I think this is more strategic than anything. The holidays are simply too packed to have this go against Microsoft's other games. So I think it is for the better.

Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
