Microsoft Gamescom 2015 Conference

The clause is meant to prevent indies from releasing games later on the XBO. If you don't have the resources to release simultaneously on the PS4, PC, and XBO, you'd have to choose which to go first. There's nothing preventing you from releasing on the PS4/PC later on.

Not to derail the thread with clause talk, but it's still bullshit. It doesn't make sense when it's the other way around. There's nothing preventing from releasing on PS4/PC later on but it's preventing to release games layer on XBO? Nice double standard there.
 
yeah i was expecting that but oh well. I've got Rash in KI and Rare Replay to keep me occupied.
Yeah, thankfully I have a lot to keep me occupied just sucked to see it up there and get all excited for a "winter" release window.
Xbox Live would shut down. At least we're getting the Game Preview version within the next few months!
This is true. Glad we have the program for getting access to games a little early. Long Dark is a blast.
 
Did you not watch the confrence? Its on mobile and 3ds too.

Way to be mature.

I was asking a question since I'm working on Server's at work, and can't re-watch the conference at the moment.

Banjo-Kazooie was nice enough to be mature and answer my simple question. You and who ever think being snarky is cool can be added to my ignore list.

And my question was relevant since a majority of XBox's exclusives announced have PC releases as well.

There's no clause on the PS4/PC, which dictates that you can't release later on them.
 
There was only one shooter in the conference, Halo 5.

Halo 5 FPS , Tomb Raider Third Person Shooter/ action-adventure, Crack Down 3=open world third person shooter with abilities, Quantumn break third person shooter with time manipulation.

Scalebound and Halo wars 2 were the only games shown outside of forza, and rare collection that were not shooters.

Too my knowledge according to chat here, haven't re-watched the whole conference.
 
I'm surprised people didn't enjoy it. I loved it. Tons of games and great features. I'm tired of the negativity and "not feeling it" on everything Microsoft does. Everything is just this or just that. Everything discounted regardless of how good it is. I don't get it.
People don't like the things that I like!
 
Nope, just "first" on Xbox One by way of the Game Preview Program which is basically Xbox equivalent of STEAM early access. It's likely launchign day and date on PC/PS4, just not on PS4 early since they (as of right now) don't have a similar early access program.

Game is awesome by the way, played it at PAX East :)

Also first on Xbox. I'm sure Charla said it.
 
I'm just watching it now. So far, looks great. Quantum Break continues to intrigue me, and Scalebound looks fun (even if the protagonist seems like DmC reject). Crackdown 3's "Battlefield"-ish multiplayer mode sounds promising, even if MS did have to drop in the "power of the cloud" marketing tag again.
 
Yeah I was really, really happy with this conference. I liked it even a little better than their E3 one. QB, Scalebound, and Crackdown all looked cool, HW2 is a nice surprise, Dark Souls III made me lose my mind... so much to look forward to!
 
Just know that the AI is a cheating POS, accept that and the game will frustrate you less.


best thing in the show I say. That and GWG BC.

I'll keep that in mind! I'm not great at these games so I'm going in expecting to get my ass handed to me in the first place.
 
Well, can't say that i'm pleased... i was (foolishly) anticipating something new from Rare other than the pirates game (Banjo/Battletoads). Or just more (new) games in general, the way that Phil was talking about their GDC showing... well i expected much more. The thing that really interested me personally was the DVR announcement lol.
 
Everyone needs to watch this footage now. The best reason to own an Xbone this year imo.

No matter what, can't get into Halo. It's the design of the character/monsters and several other things.
I played a Halo game for the first time in Guardians, the gameplay was subpar at best. Give me Unreal Tournament anyday.

And seriously, Scalebound looked like hot crap. Just gimme Vanquish on pc Kamiya.
 
Phil said it wasn't going to be at the show on twitter quite recently, so whilst some (including me) thought it would be there, it sounds like it was never planned.

Hopefully we see it soon

TGS probably right? I really want to see more of the game to see what it is. Sounds cool so far.

This Halo 5 MP b-roll footage did more for me than the e-sport segment. It's clean and crisp, it simply needs to be shown in 60fps in order to show its true colors.

This looks hot.

Really like the pace. There's so much action going on you can barely even hear the announcer anymore lol

Is it locked at 60fps or does it fluctuate?

They aren't at TGS but supposedly they suggested they were planning a smaller event for all 300 fans and some press...

At E3 Keiji Inafune/Armature specifically said they hoped to show it "in the next couple of months" and MS said they have a gameplay build around the office. We'll see what they've got in the next couple of months
 
wow so many games I want to play. Quantum Break, Crackdown(more orb collecting!!!), Just Cause 3 & Tomb Raider. I'm kind of Halo'd out but I know i'll end up getting Guardians anyways.
 
missed the conference but those videos got me thinking it was a solid 7 or 8/10. no big announcements besides halo wars 2, but they showed off a stellar 2016 catalog. The idea of them reverting back to the original xbox days rings true.
