As long as there are big games like Call of Duty, Assassins Creed, Battlefield, Sports titles like Madden, NBA 2K and kid oriented titles like Lego games, Disney Infinite and Skylanders old gen systems are going to remain alive for about another five years.
Note: indie games and Xbox live keeping services that will keep it relevant, such as, apps and free games.

If this game is a turn off. Don't play it. There are plenty of games out there that you might want to try.

I have Xbox One/Xbox 360 and PS4 and Xbox One is my most used system at home. Was thinking of getting a PC but now with Xbox One windows 10 integration no need to ever purchase PC. At least not for gaming purposes. Xbox One has me covered.
Note: I have the Microsoft Surface can't wait to stream play on it.
When I got my Xbox One, I still kept Xbox 360 for it's incredible online, fantastic game library, apps and generally to let my daughter play those great Lego games and free downloadable titles. The Xbox 360 makes an excellent secondary console (Going on 10 years). I do admit I have bought all new release on X1.
I bought this game on Xbox One about a year ago and loved every bit of it. All I can say is it's frantic fun.
Overall, great news.
I agree. Rare has such a great lineup that MS can tap into. Can't wait to see what they bring at E3. In the meantime I will play shovel knight to get that old school nostalgic feeling.
This game looks like a new version of a great throwback game i use to play. Examples, Ninja Gaiden and Shinobi. Can't wait.
I am glad they bought Battletoads out for Shovel Knight. I have a feeling this is just the beginning Rare at E3 will be something special.
I for one think the policy is fine. Take shovel knight for example, the game came out on WiiU, then PS4 and now Xbox One with Battletoads as an exclusive. I for one am excited to jump on this game that many raved about plus I loved Battletoads when I was younger. Keep the games coming MS.
Blues and Bullets for me.
Glad to see solid Indies coming
Solid score.
Excellent incentive.
Its sad how articles that give opinions with click bait titles garner more attention then an article with positive praise over a game.
Geesh! so many great games and you still hear complaints.

He mentions 4 of the big 15 games, 1 & 3 Pty. Lol wow that is a massive amount of games. Just for the fall.
To early to call which console will have the best. On paper they all look great but we will be the judge when we actually play the games. Love all the games I see coming down the pipeline hope they all turn out to be great experiences.
Love what I saw at GDC and Pax. Id@Xbox is doing a fantastic job. Keep bringing those excellent games to Xbox One and now windows 10.
