ir would be a head turner for sure. and Death Standing 2 doesn't really have any baring in this I think. remember they already worked on another game (back then said to be multiplat) while working on Death Stranding

Did i miss something? Coalition hasnt released anything for years and Gears 5 was more of a flop

Gears flopped? I was under the impression it sold pretty well, along with being on Gamepass.
It released in late 2019 so saying "years" is a bit much unless your expecting them to release a AAA game every 24 months?
I enjoyed my time with it

Yeah I wouldn't hold your breath on that one. If what Jeff Grubb said is true, Kojima and Xbox had only signed a letter of intent about a year ago. Which means at that time no actual deal had been struck and there has been no update from Grubb on that matter except to say that a letter of intent being signed was the last he heard. According to Hoeg's Law, such things are very prone to breaking down before a real deal is signed. Without seeing the actual copy of the LOI, we have no idea if this is an exclusive deal, if there are any penalties for backing out, if Kojima was allowed to shop the project to other people, etc. Realistically, there is no actual evidence that a game between Xbox and Kojima even exists right now. Even if it did, it's not likely much work has been done on it at this point and if Kojima is working on a Death Stranding sequel for PlayStation, Sony isn't going to want Kojima running around talking about an Xbox game until the game they paid for is out. Kojima is probably focused on what is a more immediate concern for him, as well.
BUT! Stranger things have happened before. Ever since the E3 of Dreams, I don't 100% count anything out.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Coalition is currently working on 2 reported IP's along with generally devoting resources researching UE5 on the Xbox hardware, and no Gears 5 didn't flop.

Gears 5 wasn't a flop. Why lie?
Maybe they mean "wait for E3 23"?

Coalition put out Gears 4 in 2016 and Gears 5 in 2019. Gears 4 began development in 2014 - 2 years. Gears 5 began development in earl 2017 and was released in late 2019 - around 3 years. Imagine how good MS 1st party offerings could be if their other studios had that kind of output.
2 games in a 6 year period, is FAR more consistent than the other MS studios. However, who knows when Gears 6 will come now that Rod Fergusson is gone.
Meanwhile, Sony has a nice rotation of Naughty Dog, Santa Monica, Sucker Punch, Insomniac (their current MVP), Guerilla Games.
However, if MS can get studios like id software, Bethesda and Obsidian to have a regular releases, MS can get into the game.

In what way was gears 5 a flop according to you?

I'm so fucking hyped for Avowed. Obsidian making an RPG without begging for scrapes on kickstarter, i'm not sure peoples realize it yet, but it should be a recipe for a kickass game.

If it's to Skyrim was New Vegas is to Fallout 3, it might end up being one of the most memorable fantasy RPGs of all time.

Has there been any leaks that we may see Avowed? It's my most looked forward to game from Microsoft and I wanna see it really bad

I'm hoping MS/Bethesda shows more than 1 RPG. Starfield will be their space game adventure to show everyone. Then they can show progress on Avowed, or whatever other medieval game. Maybe even a Fallout teaser. Zero chance of ES6.

I expect it because it would be weird to show something of the game last time, and nothing now...

MS is already in the game. Hell, they done made a new game that Sony is now trying to mimic!
What the hell is up with these one off low effort comments that don't reflect reality?

Week to go.
As an Xbox one survivor I can't wait for this, should be a banger. From here on out I think start to see all these investments pay off. Predominantly PC gamer these days, but what a time to be alive

You think Sony is trying to mimic Halo Infinite?

They don't have studios that can create proper shooters

You certainly missed something. Gears 5 has had a steady flow of additions/content added since it first released up to late last year. Hive busters was the last big one i think.
No it did not "flop" and sold extremely well.

Sounds like at least 23 games if the rumors are true about every studio sending gameplay footage.
I cant wait to see what they have.

Has there ever been a conference from anyone where every 1st party studio shows something, much less gameplay?
oldergamer

I dont know, possibly with a smaller number of studios. this is certainly the most first party studios i can recall.

I doubt it because InXile for example probably cannot show gameplay so early.
If they did that would be amazing though.

Nah, I don't buy that, but don't think it is relevant. Sony isn't trying to recreate Halo Infinite or a particular genre. They have expanded into live service games. What that actually becomes, we have no idea so seems silly to say they are "mimicking" something when live service can be anything.

back when MS only had 5 studios they may have done it, lol.

What would be considered a flop with GP involved? It charted at number 7 in its first month and fell out of the top 20 in its second and never returned. MS talks about how many people played it, a lot of people "played it" because it was on game pass but it didn't sell well at all.

Hmm, time to put our tin foil hats on.
Xbox put out a small promo video which featured 3 Japanese developers.
Could be nothing, could be something.

What are you answering?
I'm making fun of a comment that doesn't make sense when literally the second main character in the franchise says that a sequel is in the works.
But, some continue to pretend that this may not be the case.

Dont worry..the next narrative is going to be: "Yeah, great show and all..but remember, Xbox has nothing to do with this because the road map was all in development before they were Xbox 1st party."

inXile can still make a trailer like The Outer Worlds 2 announcement! Surely it counts as 1?
Chukhopops

They're not involved in The Outer Worlds 2, it's Obsidian and maybe Private Division like the first one.
I actually think we'll see a lot of ToW 2 since it's been in dev since 2019 and smaller scale.
Edit: realized I misunderstood your post
sorry. I guess you're right they could make a quick announcement especially if it's a known license like Arcanum.

He said like.
Im not adverse to cgi teasers personally, to let you know whats coming further out. Also to expect gameplay for everything at the show is unrealistic, unless they are only showing stuff thats 6-12 months out max.
Gameplay from Starfield, Avowed, contraband and redfall, some gameplay/ in engine trailers and a few cgi announcements will do for me.

If Xbox acquisitions are putting out good games : "These games would have been just as good if Microsoft hadn't bought them, and been multiplatform!"
If Xbox acquisitions put out a bad game/have development issues : "Microsoft is mismanaging these studios! Fire everyone, especially Phil!"
