Something went wrong during the edit when i added your quote, there was a Thicc quote as well in my post and was mainly directed at him. Apologize.
If you could give a single MS studio a golden-bullet game, what studio and what game/IP would you pick?

Well not really, i only have 17 posts and this also happened few hours ago:
Either the iPad is tricking me or just not properly compatible to NeoGAF mobile, but it's a bit annoying.

Realistically I don't think that I'd either trust any of their studios to be able to pull something like that off or that there's an IP that would a guaranteed hit even if they could.
I mean I'd like to see a new Fallout from Obsidian, but it's not like New Vegas was flawless or set the charts on fire.

I think this will have a decent amount of nostalgia for early Xbox fans, plus I think the setting (WW2 era alt-universe where the US has broken up into separate nations and people travel between them via planes) would make for a good open world. As well as the fighter game gameplay, maybe include some third person walking gameplay (you can leave your plane and walk around).
Get Bioware (EA now?) to do this as a Xbox exclusive. I think the original concept is fine as it is, just give it a next gen sequel. Could help sales in China too.

New ninja gaiden would be dope. I think brining back 1 vs 100 would be huge from a family perspective. Wouldnt mind a lego microsoft universe game.

Sure it does, spot on definition for platformers like Crash or open worlds like Jak II, semi open worlds like Lost Legacy or any of their competitive multiplayer shooters. They're so overrated if we are beign honest man.
It would be fire but please, let Team Ninja handle it.

what is this game you are talking about? I played every Sony first-party game and not one was like you described them...
Apart from that: I'm really eager to see what Microsoft´s first-party will come up with. If there is enough that is interesting I will probably consider buying an xbox along this generation.

Two great picks. Both of these IPs would stick out (in a good way). Xbox brand would benefit greatly and I bet the games wouldn't sell that bad, either. There aren't a ton of semi-fictional WW2 dogfighting games nor Western RPGs set in fictional Kung Fu Asia nowadays.

Mass effect goes to Arkane
Splinter cell goes to the R* team that made Max Payne 3
And Max Payne 4 goes back to remedy

Honestly they need new AAA franchises, they've been relying on 6-7 gen franchises for too long and people are getting sick of it. I expect Sony to turn Horizon, Spiderman, Days Gone, and possibly Bloodborne, Ghosts of Tsushima, and Death Stranding into full fledged AAA franchises that gamers aren't already oversaturated with (like Gears and Halo). Sony also managed to reinvigorate God of War and basically turn it into a new franchise (leaving behind the baggage of the old). Microsoft needs to also be a console to play the big and exciting new games, not just sequels to known properties.
They've acquired some studios that have the potential to fill this role, and they have some of the best indie/AA developers now under their brand (Double Fine) so they have the tool they need, we just have to hope they know how to use them.

I still don't get the "lack of 1st party" complaint regarding their current-gen stuff. They had a good number of quality games, especially stuff like the Ori games, Sunset Overdrive, Dead Rising 3 & Ryse (technically those aren't 1st-party but they are ostensibly Xbox brand games), the Forza series, Gears 5, Gears Tactics etc. Sure not a lot of story-driven, single player cinematic style games like Sony, but does anyone complain about Nintendo not offering those kind of games?
Anyways, personally I wouldn't mind a GunValkyrie Remake done between SEGA and The Coalition.
Hell I would not even mind a Blinx 3 done by Double Fine and/or RARE.
Can you guys knock this shit out, real talk? EVERY thread devolves into this console war BS, it's boring. Let's try being optimistic and good vibes here
I wish Gun Valkyrie worked on Xbox One! I don't dig cinematic story games very much but MS sticks out as a distant third in terms of first party appeal. Sony's spent the last gen slipping for me though and becoming too Western centric. Leaving Nintendo as really the only major first party stuff I care about.
I'll be curious to see how things work out with Obsidian/Double Fine moving forward however. I think Microsoft has potential though and I'm super impressed with Game Pass as a value so far.
