@cainetao11: Watching lems defend MS's show this year is supreme entertainment.

Happy I can give that to you.

But I was right. MS doesnt make what you like. Nintendo and Sony do not make tons of what I like. Big deal.

Well, no, they don't. My point is, if they did, I'd be willing to get a X1X. But dude, they announced almost nothing. A few indies we already new about mixed in with multiplats? No thank you.

And I didn't expect them to announce anything I didn't know about. Again, Spencer said he wont announce games that are years away anymore. Would you like a link to the Unlocked interview in which he stated this? Obviously whatever is in the works is not ready within the next year, so he wont mention it yet. I have no problem with this. I got my dates for cuphead, Crackdown 3; was disappointed that State of Decay2 has been delayed but that's life.

Multiplats make up 90% of the games I buy. Might as well play them with my preferred controller, most friends in superior capability. All those exclusives Sony gets and I don't care about Persona, Disgaya, Danganronpa, Tales of Ballbagia, Yakuza, Grav Rush 2, The Show among others. They mean nothing to me. Nioh and Horizon are all I have bought this year. Do you really care what I like? I certainly don't care that you don't like what I do or will not buy a 1X. But lets not pretend they had an even chance of convincing you to buy an X1X.

Why would I want a link showing some damage control from the damage control master, Phil Spencer? Turns out, he made that statement because MS doesn't have anything to show. You know it, I do, we all do. MS is in desperate need of first party support--of any exclusive support, really, in any shape or form. And, so far, it doesn't look like they'll be getting any help.

None of that is true either. He just had an interview with IGN reiterating what cain just stated. Do a little watching and keeping up with things instead of just being a troll.

Also, a dead game and a scam does not have weekly content produced for it. If it's a scam, why are they wasting their money producing more content? Crowdfunding has slowed to a trickle, it's not booming and making them millions each month. You guys really don't think these statements through.

No but it would be nice if they took the route that ED did and just release a game that everyone can play and then slowly roll the other features out. Even though ED is far from perfect, it is game that is currently out and can be played. Its better to be ambitious for an extended time than it is in a short time and not have a chance to play it.

No, no they couldn't.

Elite is still lacking tons of stuff for years since release.

IF SC released has the smaller game back then, interest would be gone, funding would have stalled and it would take much longer to make the same progress.

In 2015-16 they released far more ships than in 2013-14 because of the tile system being ready.

They've been taking a long time because they're prepping the back end tech, which included transforming the cryengine.

Come on don't sit here and tell me they couldn't. They have gotten a good amount of funding and ED even though there isn't atmospheric planets and an FPS aspect of the game, there is still plenty to do in game. They have also kept up with adding additional expansions and features since release going on 3 years ago. Granted both are very large and ambitious games to begin with, however I would be fine with having limited features and at least have something to play than nothing at all with the hope of something down the road. ED is indeed an ocean wide and puddle deep in some cases. However, there are still a ton to explore, bounty hunting, mining, planetary landings, missions, now commander creation, multi-crews, and the ability to go on a rover and explore a planet, even if it is for the most part lifeless. Along with PVP. So I wouldn't say it is lacking tons of stuff for years. Its all in how you approach it. I would rather have seen SC take the path ED has when both needed external funding. We will shall see where both are in the coming years. I will not be surprised if ED is far beyond that of SC when it is all said and done.

I don't know. People will just buy Call of Duty even though everthing sucks about it. When they buy it all they seem to care about is multiplayer, even though its the same copy and paste garbage every year. Yet when someone buys Killzone... they care the story sucks. Oh wow... like i give a damn it has the worst campaign of all my PS4 games. At least multi was the best.

Because Call of Duty even through some of their not so prime installments in the series still had a good campaign with always having the outstanding multiplayer side of it. When a new series like Killzone comes out it is going to be compared to have what Call of Duty and Halo does because those standards that they have set. It may not be fair but that's how it goes.

@iandizion713: This would be the scummiest thing I have ever seen if this was the case. Sure, for some reason people will be all for it, but honestly with how the NES Classic went and just cancelled manufacturing, do you think the same will not happen here? I really hope people don't buy this garbage and contribute to artificial shortages like Nintendo created.

@Pedro: 1. I expect those two games to dominate? Please point to where I said anything about Gears.

2. This won't be the year they release a big new Halo or Gears... but I guarantee you, next year WILL be, and Halo always shows up at E3 the year before release.

Phil has already stated that there will be nothing with Halo or Gears in E3 or this year.

Regardless if the games turned out to be what was expected or not has nothing to do with the conversation at hand. They took some risk with some new IPs and some of them didn't meet the hype. It doesn't mean they were shit games. Troll

To the contrary it is absolutely relevant to the conversation at hand. Pedro had to reach bank nearly 4 years to come up with 6 examples of Microsoft taking a risk and trying something new, at least half of those examples ranging from mediocre to straight dogshit. That is both a lack of risk taking and bad execution on the few risks they do take, which completely speaks to the point the OP was making.

That is not true he spoke of games that have come out within the past year, so no not all examples were from four years ago. Secondly, whether you feel they are dog shit or not has nothing to do if they had a high risk proposition associated with them. Just because something is shit in your opinion doesn't have anything to do with risk what so ever. If you want to speak of bad execution, OK I'll give you that as some of the games that have come out haven't been what they could have been. However, It still doesn't correlate to shit and zero risk.

The Scorpio is a good decision but their lack of risk taking in 1st party/2nd party games is a bad decision. If MS doesn't announce any new games at E3 aside from the usual Halo/Forza stuff, I'm not so sure the Scorpio will be all that exciting.

Lets pretend that games like Ryse, Quantum Break, Ori and the Blind Forest, Sunset Overdrive, Halo Wars 2 and Recore weren't MS taking risk but making sure deals.

Lets pretend that half of those games were worth a shit.
