idk the 12 month thing was needed because of how horrible the release schedule was, but now that xbox *should* have a steady flow of releases going forward I don't really see the need to keep that tradition going. Just need a good mix of gameplay of games coming soon and surprise announcements that might be far off. I kinda hope we see another IP revival, even if it's from an external team (eventhough PD and Fable are still in the works) would love to see Banjo or KI back.

When is someone going to ask him where the fuck Killer Instinct is.



Parris talking about how important the interview was, making me think he's asking Phil some tough as balls questions!

It's baffling still how Xbox dropped the ball on remasters, they could have been easy W's and line-up fillers.

  • Fallout 1 & 2 Remastered Collection - This would gain a lot of goodwill for the classic Fallout fans, especially the weirdos who hate modern day Fallout They'd be a first time release for Xbox as well. Should release them as a double pack.
  • Remaster of Fallout 3 & New Vegas - Both large AAA remasters which should be good fillers to a line-up and maybe more importantly, fillers until the next Fallout. Released separately.
  • Remaster of Morrowind & Oblivion - Release them separately, for the love of God, stop Skyrim remasters and give the other two some love. Give a lot of Skyrim fans a chance to experience Oblivion and Morrowind and like Fallout, would be fillers until the next Elder Scrolls.
  • Banjo Threemaster - Collection of all 3 Banjo titles, Banjo fans would cream, it would be a lot of goodwill and hell maybe people give Nuts and Bolts a second chance, Lol.
  • Halo 3 Remaster - Blur cutscenes, etc. Halo 3 is ugly as sin and sticks out like a sore thumb in TMCC...TMCC is fixed now so honestly, make a Halo 3 Remaster as part of TMCC and release it as a paid add-on for TMCC, it'd be a big deal.
  • Gears 2 & 3 Remaster - Put them together as a pack and include Gears UE with it and it would also be the first time Gears 2/3 would release on PC so it should sell well on Steam. Maybe only have one multiplayer suite though, Gears 3? Marcus Fenix Collection.
  • Fable 2 & 3 Remaster - Put them together as a pack again, maybe remove the multiplayer cause it isn't really important today, it'd be nice stop-gap until Playground's Fable and stick the Fable remaster in the pack too, first time release for Fable 2 on PC as well which is the best one.

I don't understand...Do they think B/C is enough? I get why Xbox isn't making Bethesda do them but why hasn't Bethesda came to the conclusion themselves to do them, is it a matter of resources? Better to put all resources to the new games rather than remastering the old ones? Maybe...I'm sure they can find a studio available to do them though.

Remasters tend to be lower-cost and profitable, they can be released quicker, they can pad out a line-up and they can provide some easy good-will and some will release on PC for the first time ever.

Agree 100% would have def filled in some gaps in the release schedule and made a lot of people happy, and bolstered GP



Hopefully, we get an answer beyond the typical "We hear you guys and we're working hard to improve".

If this line is accompanied by a shadow drop I don't mind 😉
