Uhhh...what does any of that have to do with reality? Not talking about delays or time periods, solely talking about quality games that exist right now for me to play. Pretty sure the delays for UC4 don't matter to me while I'm actually playing it....yeah one will have the most powerful console...we don't know which one for sure yet.

In the here & now, there is a "most powerful console" that's been on the market since 2...

That would be very cool...as a huge fan of comics, I just want them to have the best games possible, and Superman would really benefit from destruction tech like that.

I've always kinda seen the console dived as pretty similar to the publisher divide in comics...It would be really interesting to see DC back XBO & go toe to toe with Marvel backing Playstation. That competition has driven both industries for decades, stands to reason it may result in some pretty amaz...

Marvel hired that new gaming exec a year or so ago & he was saying all the right things in branching out from only pushing mobile games. I'm really pumped to see hi put his money where his mouth is here & I really hope it continues. Going by what the guy has been saying since he got the job it will...he specifically mentioned wanting to get guys like Daredevil into the gaming realm so I hope this is just the beginning.

Totally agree about not making Avengers ope...

@scorpius
If you were a true Spidey fan, you would just want him to receive the best game possible. Reminds me of the King Solomon tale. You are selfish enough in your own personal convictions & hang ups that you'd rather see the character driven into obscurity with mediocre games than be elevated & appreciated by a select group of people.

I've gotta buy an Xbox to play Gears, a license that was owned by Epic & potentially going multiplat before...

How do you feel about the Rise of the Tomb Raider timed exclusivity Castillo? Seems like turnabouts fair play....

Different being in this instance, Sony is fully funding this game as an exclusive that wouldn't exist otherwise...MS just threw advertising money at TR, a game that was meant to exist either way.

I'm also a longer Spidey fan than PS fan, and I appreciate the fact that Sony is finally helping to elevate the character beyond the Beenox g...

I'm all for the PC & Xbox integration, I don't see any real merit in the argument of 'no exclusives on Xbox' because I realize the difference between consoles & PC...

That said, there's at least a possibility going by Spencer's own statements that Halo 6 won't even be playable on the vanilla XBO. That's my issue. Don't tell me you are creating "unified platforms" with one breath only to use the ...

Scalebound, Crackdown, Halo Wars 2, Sea of Thieves, Recore...all games said to be 2016 or spring 2016 games, all delayed entirely out of this year aside from Recore.

If my 'appetizers' are as quality as games like Bloodborne, UC4, R&C, Until Dawn, etc...then I never need the 'full course' of games like Halo 5 or Quantum Break. I'd rather wait for classic games than be served mediocrity right on time.

Pixel, do you think it's possible that these games weren't given dates because Sony have learned their lesson on giving hard dates so that they can avoid delays?

The original rumor was that GoW was releasing in Spring/Summer, which tracks with all recent previous games in the series and Balrog said the game was not coming this year but that it was coming "soon"

I honestly think these games aren't "in development" because th...

You are absolutely & embarrassingly wrong.

Must not be much of a fan of art, culture or music in general if you can't appreciate a live orchestra scoring a conference entirely on the spot, across multiple genres & styles.

Just go away, you aren't a special snow flake & your "opinion" is obviously wrong. That orchestra was praiseworthy. If you can't elevate that above Aisha Tyler & Blink 182, it just says a lot about y...

Nope. Spencer is leaving it up to the devs. Scorpio exclusives are fully on the table gong by his own words.

You're gonna hafta upgrade if you are an XBox fan, plain & simple. You will potentially be missing out on exclusives if you wait going by Spencer's own words.

3675d ago 8 agree3 disagreeView comment

Rookie, you are wrong...Spencer already confirmed yesterday that not everything will be backward & forward compatible. He specifically said he'd leave it "up to the devs" if they wanted to create a Scorpio exclusive, unplayable on the XBO.

Did you envision a reveal of a console sans price, sans form factor, sans release date & sans games? If so then you are pretty easy to please. Scorpio is the next generation going by Spencer's own words, they con...

@negativecreep (cool name by the way)

"Scorpio will mark a big leap in the console market, so they wanted to announce it now to make developers aware of it"

One paragraph later:

"The development teams already know that Scorpio is coming"

Pretty clear there, didn't need to announce it publicly to make devs aware if they already were aware.

Also, Greenberg said that independent...

@Neo

MS is automatically worse because they announced their hardware, but they also stealthily confirmed that it's basically the next generation come early instead of an upgrade. The Neo documents plainly stated no exclusives & no gimped games, Spencer said he will "leave it up to devs" when it comes to games exclusive to Scorpio & unavailable on the original XBO. So it's basically a 3 year console cycle for MS, even while they are touting this &qu...

@tob

Halo Wars 2 was confirmed for Feb. 2017 & until we have firm word from Capcom & MS themselves, I'd say it'd be more reasonable to assume that DR4 will hit PS4. Regardless of whether or not it'll hit Steam, it'd still be an Xbox console exclusive & that was never mentioned, but a game like We Happy Few plainly showed "first on consoles on Xbox"...going by MS' own logic & branding, it's just as likely as not that DR4 won&...

Is it "fanboy" to point out the failure of GFWL? Is it "fanboy" to call QB's PC launch very rocky, Gears UE's launch poor....Is it "fanboy" to point out that Win10 is still missing key features available on other platforms with no real utilization of any new ideas that give it a boost above its competition?

Ultimately MS talks a big game, but I'd say it'd be more "fanboy" to buy into stuff hook, line & sinker while...

The fact that it's all available for PC doesn't bother me much, but the word that came out after the show that Spencer will be allowing for full Scorpio exclusives does...

In that instance they are almost forcing console gamers to upgrade to Scorpio...pretty sure most fans were fine with the mid cycle upgrades because they wouldn't have any exclusives not available on the box that released just 3 years ago.

We had seen Sea of Thieves when it was announced last year, we've seen plenty of Gears gameplay, Halo Wars 2 only showed maybe a second or two of gameplay, Scalebound we've seen, co op we've known about...Recore & Forza were the only things we hadn't seen or had a strong idea as to how they look.

As far as Scorpio's beast status, it still only exists in the ether, haven't seen the box, don't know the price or release date, haven't seen a ...

Spidey looked amazing...not a huge fan of the white spider but that's a nitpick & Im positive there will be plenty of skins available.

I just read that Red Dead was going to be the closer in place of Days Gone but it featured a character shooting up a saloon full of innocents & it was pulled in light of the Orlando attacks. I mean the conference we got was mindblowing for me but if it had closed out w/ Red Dead that would've been insane. I understand why the...

Well I'd say Resident Evil entirely in VR would qualify as one of the most interesting VR announcements to date. An exclusive Star Wars X-Wing battle & exclusive Batman Arkham VR...these names alone at least are larger than anything available in the VR realm, so it's relative really. You may not care for VR whatsoever, but you can't deny that those names & prospects are as interesting as possible for these devices.

As far as third party filler, I don'...

Really reaching there...first off Last Guardian is dated for this year & looking amazing, No Mans Sky is right around the corner, PSVR is happening this year, GT Sport is happening this year as well...MS has delayed Crackdown, Scalebound, Halo Wars 2 & likely Sea of Thieves, so all they have left for this year is Gears & Forza & the budget Recore title that we still haven't seen played...everything else shown we knew about & DR4 could potentially be multiplat or timed ...
