The gaming world was really blessed to have a man like Iwata driving it forward. You will always be missed, RIP
@spotie the $1 billion dollar for repairs never showed up in Microsoft entertainment and devices divisions earnings report because it was swallowed up by the entire Microsoft group.
As for them making a profit from September 2007, that is a fact because I have read their financial report ever since.
Yes they did. After the launch of Halo 3 in 2007, every quarter after that, they made a profit.
I think it would be smart to open a store front on Xbox one for 360 games. What would make it a success is if they sell these games for as little as £10 max.
As with fallout, they can add the 360 version to the sequels on Xbox one to the premium edition for free.
This could make Microsoft and publishers money but only if they package it properly.
Not yet i believe.
I am going to be broke this fall :-(
This will arrive just in time for my play Xbox One playthrough of Mass Effect 1 to 3 when BC launches. Hope i can map biotic powers to the paddles underneath.
They said all first party published games will be available at launch.
I don't know what this is but it ain't journalisim lol.
SMH
Microsoft said there will be hundreds of games availble day one and it has already been confirmed that every first party published game will be available.
Currently, you can even vote on the games you want with the most popular making the list if they are not already there on day one https://xbox.uservoice.com/...
I love Shenmue and contributed to original games. But lets be honest here, E3 2016 will come and we will be talking about seeing gameplay footage of Shenmue III and FFVII remake, 2017 E3 will come and we will be talking about seeing gameplay footage of Shenmue III and FFVII remake. E3 2018 will come and there is a slight possibility that we will be talking about seeing gameplay footage of Shenmue III and FFVII remake.
When they finally arrive, they will also be on the PC and...

"Forza gets less exciting each year"
Maybe for you it does but as a huge car enthusiast, it does not and Forza 6 is one of my most anticipated games of the year. The Forza series is the main reason i stick with the X1 because i need a constant stream of racing games.

"Nevertheless the point is that 2016 is looking rather thin for Microsoft right now"
LOl what a very stupid statement. It really makes me scratch my head when so called journalists can't even spend five minutes to do some research.
So far, these are the AAA exclusives games confirmed for spring 2016 on the X1
- Recore
- Quantum Break
Fall confirmed game are
- Sea of Thieves

Lol that is me in a nutshell.
I agree. Le Mans 24hrs 2015 concluded last week sunday and if you watch the in car view of La mans night racing, your jaw will drop because they can hardly see sh*t https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Now compare it to a game like Project cars and while it is still prety dark, it is nothing compared to how dark it is in real life

@BerserkerBoy: No need to beg because i have pledged on the kickstarter page for the superior PC version, which i will be playing on my Win 10 machine PC.
"Many console players who are fans of shenmue are going to buy ps4 to play it. Brilliant stuff from sony as usual"
As if Shenmue I and II were ever released on a PS system. WHat stats do you have to show that the majority of Shenmue plays from the Dreamcast and Shenmue II players form the original Xbox have migrated to the PS4?
I played Shenmue on my Dreamcast and Shenmue II on my XBox, as did other Shenmue II playes in the west, so if xbox players ...
If they announce a first party RTS, i really hope it is Halo Wars 2. Halo Wars is one of my favourite games on the 360 so a sequel on the X1 would be awesome.
