You mention that you think Halo 6 would "amass a lot of Xbox360 gamers" but how many do you expect that would be at this point? There has already been Halo: The Master Chief Collection (Which is all 4 original Halo games and even ODST) and Halo 5: Guardians which have both been out for a while now. Don't get me wrong Halo 6 would of course push a lot of sales, but I don't think it would bring in as many older Xbox 360 fans back as you seem to think it would, since I feel like a lot of halo fans that would buy an Xbox for a new Halo game would already have one at this point.

In general the idea of "bringing back past Xbox 360 gamers to the Xbox One" seems to have already been a focus of Microsoft because they've brought back a lot of games that were some of the biggest exclusives on the 360 such as Halo, Gears of War, Forza, Fable (before it got cancelled), etc. They've tried that already but I think eventually it hits a point where even though those games might still be great and still great IP's in general, outside of people that aren't already in the Xbox environment and are expecting those games, other people possibly aren't as interested in buying a new console for them because of how they've known of those games for a while and they aren't really "new" to them anymore because they're the same IP's they've known for a while, even if the newest installments end up great.

I think Microsoft should try to strike a better balance between investing in IP's that are already well known and will please people who already own an Xbox and expected those games such as Gears of War, and creating new IP's that will attract in other audiences that may not have gotten an Xbox otherwise.

They've done a good attempt at this so far this gen such as: Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, ReCore, Project Spark, Killer Instinct, Phantom Dust Remastered, and even some upcoming ones like Sea of Thieves, State of Decay 2, Crackdown 3, etc. All either being new IP's or franchises that had not seen a new installment in a long time. (And State of Decay isn't even an old IP, the first game was barely out in 2013). 

So while I think they should continue to create and invest in IP's that people love still and still sell well like Halo and such, they should also balance it out with something people haven't seen before. Because someone who might not buy an Xbox for Halo since they've already heard of Halo for such a long time and might just see it as that "same old IP that is always on Xbox", might buy it for one of the newer games already mentioned because it's new and hasn't been seen before to them.

tl;dr: A lot more new fresh games, whether it be new IP's or games in franchises not seen for a while like they did with Killer Instinct, on top of the already popular IP's they have.

I want Halo 6 and Forza 7 in VR.

But, since that is already off the table, I would like to see Crackdown 3, and at least 2 new IP. I want to see Microsoft make something that can compete with Naughty Dog, Sucker Punch, or Geurrilla on a single player level. I would also like to see them take a shot at a new type of genere, something niche today, that they put the effort in to make into something with potential as either a cult classic or even have a shot at reaching mainstream appeal.

All in all, I just want to see Halo/Forza/Gears level of investment in new IP. Sony took major chances last gen while they were on the bottom, and loosing money, so there is no reason MS can't do the same while on the bottom, but making Billions.

As for niche, they have Sea of Thieves and Cuphead. Especially cuphead looks quite nice.

Perhaps a teaser for TES6 with marketing rights
Or Bully 2 as I read on Pcgamer is a rumor

Breath of the wild 2

Half life 3.

Starting to get the feeling we'll be seeing shadow of war in 4k. I have nothing to base it on maybe except the release was pushed back but that's straw clasping at it's finest.



If it does happen... You heard it here first.

Scalebound

Well it's not going to have an exclusive that's for sure. Mircrostoft have already said you won't get a game on Scorpio that you can't get on xboxOne and PC.

The question is not "what game" but "what games", plural. 1 game alone isn't gonna cut it anymore, the competition puts out a game every other month now, the gap is yuuuge. MS is never gonna close it, what I need is like 3 games, all in different genres, all with gameplay demos, no CGI.

I need fresh looking games that will excite me. Scalebound hyped me the fuck up back in 2015, I was so ready for that game.

The 3 games I'd want are:

-Lost Odyssey 2

-Conker 2

-Jet Set Radio 3

If those 3 were announced I can assure you it'll take down gaf servers.

Are these games that will blow u away, seriously? Sequels to Halo, Gears, Fable and timed exclusives is anything but what people want from MS. At this point what we need is less Halo and Gears with their old formula and more fresh new IPs. They can also leverage old IPs in new genres. Latest Halo and Gears are both way down sales wise, people are getting tired and they're not excited anymore. If they made a Halo RPG like Mass Effect, and a Gears spinoff in the horror genre (both lend themselves well for those genres), they can revive interest again for them. If Rare made another 3D platformer again it'd resonate with the hardcore gaming community a 100x more than Sea of Thieves can.

Considering they're marketing partners, they'll talk a lot about that game and its native 4K features. In fact any 3rd party on their stage will be there just to promote the 4K capability of the Scopio.

A game starring a polar bear would ;)
