Microsoft may simply be adding more software value to platforms and devices by focusing on expanding services to them. That does not mean console gaming or an Xbox platform physically will not exist. We may get flagship devices which may perhaps be modular. Steambox exists despite the fact that the strength of Steam is it's presence on PC. What does that say? The goal is to simply be where consumers are.
Microsoft may perhaps be looking to expand development of first part...
Two fantastic developers coming together to create something new is something we need more of in gaming. I don't care if it's third party or first party. Metroid Prime was astounding for it's time, and Keiji Inafune style is really necessary for this new generation. Let's see how this game comes to the stage with gameplay now. They are talking Spring 2016.
With all the updates, and attention Microsoft has been giving the Xbox One. Hopefully they have some form of patch to fix a feature that is unnecessary to remove from Halo.
Retro Gaming is dope...
True...
This is diversity in gaming...
We got you Stepto!!
The irony of your comment @Chrisco, and @headblackman is the fact that not long ago during the PS3 and Xbox 360 generation developers were literally called lazy by so called gamers. Lazy because one console was harder to get titles running on the hardware efficiently to it's specs.
Although extreme, I do not see what @headblackman has stated in his comments that's much different in regards to this generation. Let alone one console hardware being more difficult to deve...
@Anthotis You make a really good argument, but more on the creative, and freedom of expression that we all should have. Historically though, the worlds history has been thrown out off. Much of the truth about the migration of people from different areas of the world has been subjugated.
I don't think you have to be anti-white to see that a "fantasy world" does not play by the rules of the real world. Therefore, it's not a heretic thing to suggest that divers...
DCBronco,
You have consistently been one of the most clear minded voices on these N4G comments. I commend you on your participation for so long.
Thank you
Maybe Ubisoft should open up about where and development is some going with a roundtable of the gamer community. Perhaps feedback will help the studios stay on central focus.
Dig...
Awesome
Gaming's Walt Disney World indeed ...Fam, I gotta go.
Aye Ocelet. This list is too constricting of the greatness that was the 7th gen.

It's a good thing that the last gen consoles allowed for an easy transition. Had it been a mass exodus of support from Microsoft and Sony with the PS3/Xbox 360. I believe people would had a bit more reluctance to move on. Clearly gamers/consumers are ready to move on. This holiday season is going to be interesting for platforms across the gaming spectrum.
Be a gamer...Not a Hater
Ironwolf... What type of development do you do?
I like this. Needs to be true.
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnddddddddd here is the rub...
