I'd be surprised at this point if the reviews don't bomb ..

2015 was a damn good year with Forza 6, Gears UE, Halo 5 and Ori. That was a strong lineup and imo better than 2007. Still I find 2016 lineup to be the best ever. 2008 and 2010 were great years too.

That list is a bit funny though. Now Kinect games count again heh.

How can those games you mentioned beat:

  • Bioshock *
  • The Orange Box *
  • Halo 3
  • Mass Effect *
  • Forza 2
  • Project Gotham Racing 4
  • Crackdown
  • Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars
  • Ace Combat 6
  • Eternal Sonata
  • Blue Dragon
  • Naruto: Rise of a Ninja
I know it is your opinion and all, but.....come on!

The more they delay it, the higher the expectations from the reviewers.

After all these years, if they receive the copy of the game and end up feeling "this is it?", it wont be pretty.

The big game that was supposed to launch with the Xbox One X, to showcase what it could do? and its delayed.

Tough cookies, that might effect xbox one x launch abit.

I was supposed to showcase what the xbox one could do with the cloud. Perhaps the most powerful console still needing assistance from the cloud wasn't the best marketing strategy...

Unbelievable how bad the graphics look compared to 2014, all these years you'd expect a semi generational leap, and it actually gets worse. That E3 showing was terribad.

Something awful is going on at MS 1st party. All the games delayed end up either cancelled or get mediocre scores and I feel this won't be different. (Recore, Quantum Break, Scalebound, Fable Legends).

You mean compared to that CGI trailer? Or the multiplayer reveal? The graphics for the multiplayer that year look no different. If anything it looks better now. 

You mean that deceiving fake PC trailer running 'The Cloud' in a closed environment?!

Nah it looked better...it doesn't even look that good on X1X now. And I'm more than certain the actual MP won't look anywhere close to that destrucion wise.

 

 

BTW do you guys know what I've just heard...?! I myself joked about it being a possibility but I actually heard that Agents of Mayhem being the actual reason for the delay because it (67 on Metacritic as of now) looked and played better than Crackdown 3 after all these years.

 

It's just a rumor as of now, but I would believe it.

I think the delay is because Crackdown 3 developers noticed how powerful and beastly the Xbox One X really is, making the use of The Cloud redundant.

There is no need for Cloud Computing anymore, the Xbox One X is powerful enough to process all the required physics as shown in the first demo, easily.

If im not mistaken, i read in the Windows Central website that the Xbox One X is equivalent to a 4.500$ PC, which would be able to render all the particles and effects needed for this ground breaking game.

The developers should take the time they need, even if they have to delay the game again, i wouldnt be mad. Crackdown 3 will change the gaming scenario, just like Mario 64 did in its time.

Just have patience people, it will be worth it.

I certainly hope they didn't say that. Edit: You were mistaken.

Regardless, this assessment is what one should listen to. 

Guess some people are really bad at catching sarcasm..

I bet you Crackdown 3 will have a higher meta than Agents of Mayhem. Wanna make that bet?

I know it is your opinion and all, but.....come on!

I think only 3 of those are Microsoft Studio games.

3 to 5 has been the number for "true" first party exclusives from MS and Sony in the last decade.

What Sony Studio games do we have this year? Horizon ZD, GT6 and...?

And Nintendo with 4 "big" games the whole year, with no AAA multiplat.

Why does you guys have to give MS in such a harsh scale?

Gravity Rush 2

No Heroes Allowed! VR

Everybody's Golf ?

Knack 2

Horizon Zero Dawn (+the frozen wilds expansion)

Uncharted : The lost Legacy

Grand Tursimo Sports

MBL The Show '17

Drawn to Death

Patapon Remastered

LocoRoco Remastered

Think these are from studios with ties/owned by Sony? right.. might have missed some.



Good! Exactly what this game needs. Hopefully they make it look a little better for launch. Spring 2018 looks good.
