If they're in the minecraft universe, certainly multiplat. If they are new IP's, probably will be Xbox/PC. Minecraft is the sole exception so far to series from Xbox owned studios all being exclusive. Phil specially allowed Minecraft to stay multiplat, but that was only because the IP was so popular and already kn other platforms. New IP come with different expectations. 

My thoughts as well. Minecraft stuff will remain multiplat, while new IPs will be Xbox/PC exclusive. 

I could see a scenario where a revamped version of Minecraft (Upped graphics, ray tracing, larger worlds, more options, ect...) Basically a Minecraft 2, but not called Minecraft 2 being an Xbox /PC exclusive.  Discontinuing the adding of anymore updates to older versions.  It couldn't run on current console hardware, and what better way to move some new consoles.

Thanks for your feedback.
Decided to continue Shadow Warrior as it's not too long of a game. If it blows me away I might go straight to Shadow Warrior 2 afterwards.

Might play Fallout 4 once I use my 40-ish vacation days I still have left.



I think Xbox needs to simplify the xbox one store. They need to get away from the windows store format and do their own thing. Things take way too long to load and there is just too much going on when looking at a game in the store. The xbox UI in general needs a renovation as well.

For sure. The new home page is the best one yet on the Xbox One and I like the new Guide. But the store is very sluggish and a pain to navigate. 

The home page now is the best one yet, but still has room for improvement, and the guide is good how it is. My main issues are with the store, new avatar editor, and profile section needs to be renovated and faster. 



Not sure if anyone noticed but The Bioshock Collection got an update on Xbox and now runs at a native 4k resolution on Xbox One X.

I want faster updates, the downloading part goes fast but it easily takes another 15 minutes to execute the update






Anybody see the Samsung TV Game Pass partnership? Looks like another way to get the word out and get some subs along the way



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

That store revamp is definitely coming with a revamp to the rest of the UI. It would look so out of place on the current one.



The store looks way better.

Listing for Kingdoms of Amalur Remaster/Remake discovered on Xbox Store

I'll admit: Re-Reckoning isn't the worst one THQ Nordic has done.

Amen, I am keen!
