Is it still subscription based? If it is, hard pass for me. I dont care how good it is. I have enough damn subscriptions in my life!
Just remember, the more studios that MS gobbles up, the less money their is to go around to fund major AAA projects. And before anybody says "Its MS, they have more money than anyone." Just remember, Xbox is but one division at MS and they have to work within a specific budget just like every other division does. They dont have a key to the money vault, so to speak.
To the author, do you walk into McDonalds and complain that you cant order a Whopper? Do you walk into a Ford dealership and complain that you cant buy a Corvette? Do you walk into Yankee Stadium and complain that you cant watch the Braves? There are brand-specific goods associated with virtually every company in the free market.
It can be. But its going to have to be REALLY special. I think the one thing nobody talks about is the fact that Halo's original creator, Bungie is no longer making games in this franchise. There's a reason why many Xbox fans consider Reach as the last truly good Halo game. Its because thats the last one that Bungie made. When you lose the dev team that started the franchise, thats kind of a big deal. Not saying its impossible. Look at God of War. Whole different team, yet the...
LOL!

For me, the remaining games in 2019 that I am buying are...
Mario Maker 2
Luigi's Mansion 3 (how is this not on the list?)
Death Stranding
Doom Eternal
Jedi Fallen Order
KH3 had the benefit of following two very successful predecessors and years of anticipation. There was no way that game wasn't going to sell well.
Anthem I agree with you 100%.
That's where I'll play it too. I've pretty much closed the books on current gen. Anything new coming out between now and next holiday, I'll be playing on next gen hardware. I'll be spending the rest of this year and next year catching up on backlog and playing Switch exclusives. Even Death Stranding is going to have to wait. I want to play that on PS5.
LOL you win the internet!
The question I have is do these 120hz TVs maintain that refresh rate in "Game" mode? My plasma is capable of up to 96hz refresh rate but it defaults to 60hz in Game mode. Not using game mode while playing a videogame introduces noticable lag.
I do have to ask, if you're older than 10 and a guy, how does something like Animal Crossing appeal to you? Do you still wear footie pajamas and drink from a sippy cup too?
What should we do? Give MS a gold star for letting Nintendo use an IP that they themselves refuse to do anything with? Thanks MS. More Halo, Gears and Forza coming up!
You mean something like The Last of Us Part 2? ;-)
Been asking myself that question all generation.
Imo the conference was good enough to keep current Xbox fans satisfied but it didnt do enough to make PlayStation or Nintendo gamers want to run out and buy an Xbox. I expected more to be honest. Cyberpunk was the best thing at the show and that's multiplat.
Agreed 100%
It may not NEED it but damn if I still want it! I still enjoy the pomp and circumstance of E3. I enjoy the conferences, even if some of them are trainwrecks. I love the leaks. I love the 24 hour news coverage. I love the hype. I love the live reaction videos! E3 is the "Superbowl" of the videogame industry and as a gamer, frankly I'm pissed at the notion that E3 should go away and isnt important. It's still important to ME damnit!
Will never understand the love that Conker and Banjo Kazooie garners. I had both on N64 back in the day. Both were just inferior versions of Super Mario 64.
Predator looks promising.
Thanks Dad.
