This ip has always been a magnet for bad press in the industry its really crazy because the ip is awesome.
The Initiative studio has most of the talent in the industry so it would be surprising to me if their games will not match Sonys rpgs exclusives.
Another Don Mattrick pot head
Microsoft seems like they just want purposely piss off Xbox fans with some of their decisions right now. Just going by what Phil said about being excited for the games they did not want to show at E3 was stupid smdh. Why hold back games when you could have created more hype for next gen by showing those new ips for Xbox fans and the media.
That is true if they dont get better jrpg support next gen it will be difficult for Xbox.
Microsoft needs to acquire more sp rpg studios like CDPR. They are really in need of more mature rpg studios. Sony is killing them with single player mature rpgs right now they need to stop the bleeding in that area.
The next gen console battle standard will be about 1st party exclusives, console services and real time ray tracing.
Ok Sony has the exclusive advantage over Microsoft right now but what will happen if Microsoft matches that and will be able to expand those exclusives through Xcloud? I will tell you right now what will happen if those new studios make a new ip for Xbox thats on GOW level or Uncharted they will reach far larger audience than Sony which means more market share. Even Sony knows this which is why they want to partner and expand PS. Sony knows that Xcloud is a threat next gen to their market sha...
Your right why buy an Xbox if its on PC? Well Microsoft answered that for you already by stating at E3 their no longer looking at Xbox as just a hardware but a service to be expanded in order to gain more MAU into the Xbox ecosystem which in their opinion is more important than console sales. I believe their right about expanding Xbox instead of just going the traditional route because even pc gamers will get the Xbox Scarlet and Microsoft understands its software and services that makes prof...
Your correct that Xbox will definitely need to up their game with exclusives but the Xcloud can change everything if it really takes off next gen and devs from around the world embraces it. Microsoft has the advantage if the game industry turns into a services and subsription based battle which imo looks like its headed there. Sony has great exclusives but that will not be enough next gen if their comp can reach a larger audience than them with their games.
Never seen so many positive Xbox articles on this site weird, but anyway these gaming journalist must really believe next gen streaming will take off and revolutionize gaming because that is the only advantage Microsoft can have over Sony next gen. The only way Microsoft can win next gen is if the Xcloud becomes a huge success like gamepass and developers from all over embraces it.
Phil has to deliver on the gaming front with mature rpgs. The hardware and services are great but if he wants to kill the negavitive perception about him he has to deliver with the 1st party exclusives.
Its becoming obvious that single player mature rpgs are the standard of the industry right now. Microsoft has to pay attention how much these games draw many audiences and win most game awards.
The only thing Microsoft needs is more Japanese games and more mature games. I hope they purchase Sega.
Looks like investors are liking the vision of Microsofts plans for Xbox.
The only way Microsoft will be able to execute their plans for more market share is through high quality sp AAA mature rpgs and jrpgs support. And If they can bring out 3 AAA exclusives a year that gets high ratings their gamepass subscription with Xcloud will put their market share through the clouds literally.
I would say Sony is still their biggest competition because Google does not have the content or a huge game fanbase to go against Microsoft right now like Sony does. Microsoft better start becoming more aggressive next gen with Sony or they will lose more market share to them next gen especially since they want to help them with the cloud. Im not liking how friendly Phil is with the competition at all right now its really irritating me. The 360 became popular because J Allard was aggressive w...
Damn some of you Sony fans are a cancer to gaming its really not that serious to worship plastic and a company.
Best racer by far
Most of Sonys best exclusives are sp rpgs so maybe you should look up the definition. And according to Sony they will push ps now harder next gen so its not only Microsoft going that route.
