I want MS to support Insomniac and make Sunset Overdrive their big billion dollar franchise of this gen.

OG Xbox = Halo
Xbox 360 = Gears

MS will build up a relationship before they bring a big cheque to the table.

If I didn't own a PS4 I'd be missing out on Ratchet & Clank/No Mans Sky/WiLD/Bloodborne/Etc..

I sure hope Sunset Overdrive does well. I want Phil to have a reason to allocate the funds to turn Sunset Overdrive into a big franchise up there with Halo/Gears/Forza.

Considering Insomniacs track record? It would be VERY surprising. Both Capcom Vancouver and Crytek have been known to do PC ports of their games.

Fuse = Xbox/PS

Insomniac has a very small team working on "Slow Down Bull" which is a PC game but it's an open indie experiment for them.

MS owns the IP. How many MS owned IPs hit PC when they owned them AFTER xbox release. Bare in mind the only ones that have... were originally announced to hit PC.

Crackdown? No.
Halo? No (When MS got the IP it didn't hit PC)
Forza? No
I could start listing all the OG Xbox games that never hit PC.

Alan Wake was owned by Remedy.
Quantum Break is owned by MS.

How about you wait to see some of it before you dismiss it.

I feel like FUNction Studios or LXP should do a conker game. They had fun kind of team videos. If they are willing to show that kind of atmosphere they could do wonders with Conker.

Assuming of course they're fine with swearing.

So least I have something to rewatch a few times on Halloween while giving out candy.

Even if you're not a fantasy fan or fan of The Witcher.

You've got to admit it's got some of the best music.

He was hired because he's a pro player. It's about MP design. They didn't hire him for his coding expertise.

They hired him for direct MLG feedback as well as proper QA testers.

Wait for Sunset Overdrive 2 to do that...

Phil Spencer is behind this game.
"Sunset is a game I really care about." - Phil Spencer
"I'd love to add another great franchise to AAA great franchise to list of exclusives on Xbox" - Phil Spencer

Is what he said in the IGN podcast interview.

I really don't care if sprint is in the BETA.

If it is, and it is too much of a problem they'll get rid of it by retail. That's why the beta hits 11 months pre retail release.

And nothing like Halo 4?

How about it keeps Halo 4s strengths...

The engine is called "Northlight".

So rather fitting for Alan Wakes environment.

That extra gameplay was soooo good...

I'm surprised a fly didn't go in my mouth while watching this.

So I got to buy both versions to get access to Mewtwo?

Okay Nintendo you win. I've got a 3DS and a Wii U for this reason.

Mewtwo is my favorite Smash Bros fighter.

You do realize this is Halo 4 footage... The Promethean AI was the most aggressive of all Halos.

It was almost as challenging as Halo 2 Legendary.

Still a game each month

September
Forza Horizon 2
October
Sunset Overdrive
November
Halo Master Chief Collection

It's about momentum. And that SSO and Halo MCC are positioned perfectly for Holiday sales.

While February is kind of a dead month for sales momentum. Blowing their load in February and not having anything until Uncharted 4 will kill any momentum. Happened with the X1 this year. Titanfall ...

Is it a bit rough? Yeah I agree. Just rewatching some funny Breaking Bad moments so calling a few people "Bitch".

But I'm sick of people pretending these Day one updates screw everyone. It's 4 games, obviously there will be stuff you can't fit on the disc and need to throw in a MP patch.

Most people who play Halo, play it for online. A lot play it for the story, but the core community plays it for Online MP.

If you're an offline user you weren't playing the Online MP playlists in the first place.

You aren't getting screwed...Just like always you're looking for something to bitch about.
