I don't think I've ever seen you contribute to this site through discussion, other than through comment or article trolling.
All I know is that MS' misfortunes with Xbox this gen are due to two things:
- Focusing on the "dudebro" games last gen.
- Having a fanbase that thought COD DLC, Halo and Gears mattered more than new and innovative exclusives.
Considering that around 70% of all Xbox Ones sold are the phat original one, you'd better hope that what you said is not the case.
"...and it looked so much like Bioshock in its artstyle."
Even a 5 year old could have read and understood that sentence in my comment. If you're gonna troll, try harder next time.
I was really looking forward to this because MS touted it as a big time game and it looked so much like Bioshock in its artstyle.
After you play the first sequence of the early access (which was shown initially as the trailer) it becomes a pile of junk. The gameplay and overall quality of the game made it look like it was in a pre-pre-alpha phase.
Considering that the flipping happens more frequently than you think it does, I don't think I'll have to wait too long lol
Three trolling comments in a row?

And as recent history has informed us as consumers, I wouldn't hold my breath in waiting for Xbox games that haven't or hardly have gameplay already shown. These comments of yours, touting more forza and halo, are the reason why MS is in the predicament that it's in right now.
I'll be sure to save this comment for when Scorpio is announced with VR and all we'll hear from you is that "MS is doing VR right".
It's on two separate planets at this point. The closest competitive console now, when it comes to the number of exclusives, is the Switch.
"This is Sony's first new iconic franchise in almost a decade. I don't consider the Last of Us a new IP because it's just Uncharted with zombies."
This is one of the dumbest comments I've seen in the last decade here at N4G. Even before I made my account.

Watched it for you (:
Overall they can't give it enough praise in all aspects!
Scorpio is still practically a whole year away, this is completely reactionary to Sony. I don't see either company going lower than $250 from here on out.
At $500 to $600, Scorpio will hopefully provide a better controller or something that makes it different.
I mean exactly what I said...don't live by it.
All last year we heard about how awesome the 2016 Xbox lineup was and how it was the best lineup so far and how it was the most diverse. Then Crackdown gets delayed again, Scalebound gets delayed then cancelled, and Halo Wars delayed to this year.
What other proof do you need?
Good lord...I get 720p or 900p since Xbox has been around that resolution since launch. But 480p? That can't be right.
"In the article, we got insights on how several AAA titles are coming along for the year 2017. Games such as Halo Wars 2, Sea of Thieves, State of Decay 2, Cuphead, We Happy Few, Takoma, and Ark: Survival Evolved were all mentioned."
And with this, no one should take this list as truth. They said the same thing within the s...
That's it?
One is just coming out and then what? Another 9 months before something else releases or is delayed/cancelled?
I don't understand how people keep supporting this type of practice as consumers.
It's not just them as a company, their general fanbase is to blame.
Yes MS did invest a lot of resources into the dude bro culture last gen with COD, Gears, Halo and Madden. But even now the fanbase just doesn't support anything outside of those games.
I'm a huge Age of Empires fan, so this game has been on my radar. But I've yet to try it on the Xbox. I think the author's comment speaks volumes to me when it comes to these games.
"But now here, when you have the option to play the game purely on PC, I don’t know why I’d want to ever do anything else."
This is in regards to personal playing preference, not necessarily the content.
State of Decay 2 is still in early stages, we probably won't see it till late 2018 or early 2019. They've barely released concept art according to what we've seen. And Cup Head, while I will be getting it, it's definitely not at the level that the ones I listed are.
Not just that, but Cuphead could potentially go multiplat according to assumptions on statements from the dev:
"Our official statement is that Cuphead will launch first on...
Realized I'd get a lot of flak for not listing Crackdown, even though it's been the longest time since we've seen anything concrete. Probably delayed till 2018 around early February (similar to Halo Wars 2).
The same people that are beating a dead horse by saying that the Switch has a poor lineup of games are the same ones saying that the 3 games they'll get this year for Xbox in general (another Forza, Halo Wars 2, Sea of Thieves and Crackdown) are sufficient enough from MS.
Considering most of these are probably on other consoles...here's to hoping that the exclusive ones actually get supported by the fanbase. Heck, even recore had a hard time getting support.
