Hi Guest. NeoGAF is going down for several hours of scheduled maintenance. Sit tight and look forward to a suite of new features upon our return.
Microsoft Gamescom teaser - August 12 Xbox briefing
- Thread starter Steverulez
- Start date
The beta for Halo 5 starts December 27th and runs until January 22nd. I think we'll get something.
Hyped to see QB.
I want a new Banjo from Rare, but I think we'll get more Kinect Sports Rivals stuff first. I have a feeling they are going to go the Killer Instinct route with a free rotating event, individual events for purchase, and a couple of new events on the way (table tennis pls). I'd be down for stand-alone wave racing and bowling.

I'm pretty sure Phil Spencer himself said they consider that first party. They're funding it, probably going to own the IP
I'm not expecting any big announcements at Gamescom because they showed 3 E3 CG trailers of games that are most likely 2016 releases. Why would they show a retail title at Gamescom that may release next year after they did that?
I think we'll see a preview of the Halo 5 beta, an update on D4 (Really interested in this since it reminds me of Steins;Gate), gameplay footage of Quantum Break (confirmed), and maybe a new Scalebound trailer with some gameplay since it was apparently playable before E3.

I don't understand the point you're trying to make by defining 'we'. I understand you were saying games that haven't been revealed. You're saying there are a "ton of games" that haven't been revealed. So I asked if you have insight into which studios might be making these games. But I guess you don't. Maybe someone else does. My point is that you obviously need studios to make these first party games, and I personally think you're off base to expect "a ton" of unannounced exclusive games to be announced over the next year.

OK. Well he has a strange definition of first party, then. Not one I've seen before.
Did I ever say I expect them to be announced over the next year? No. I simply said I'm sure there's a lot of unannounced exclusive games, and a few of them will most likely be announced between now and E3 2015. To think that Microsoft would announce absolutely no games between now and E3 2015 is just silly.

I'm not saying they aren't working on games that have yet to be seen I know for a fact they are. I don't think they will be announcing any new games till around e3 2015. They have plenty of announced games that we will see more of no doubt see more of but I don't expect announcements of new first party games.

Yes! Good call, I'm with you.
I just can't see them letting Gamescom and TGS pass them by while Sony announce a few new games at each event.

I bet the only 2016 titles announced so far are crackdown and Gears of War. Halo 5, Fable, Phantom Dust remake, Quantum Break are likely to be 2015 IMO.

Maybe some Japanese games but I expect TGS to have scalebound and hopefully phantom dust footage. I mean they could have more announcements but they have already announced quite a few games that they can trickle footage and info over the next year. I certainly wouldn't expect a big announcement.

Scalebound is probably a 2016 title. I would think that Microsoft has dipped into its early-CY2016 line-up (i.e., before E3 2016). Crackdown is probably an early 2016 game following on its March release when the first one came out.
I'm thinking that Microsoft actually does a 2016 Anniversary treatment for Gears of War and releases Gears 4 in 2017.

Dragonborn, I think that was the Platinum Games exclusive.

It might be time for me to crack out my Quantum Break avatar again...
Phil Spencer referred to it as "first party" though.
Not really strange at all. If you own the IP then the game is "first party", no matter who the dev is.

Lionhead's new IP is presumably too far away (also they confirmed they were making one so at least its not rumoured) as they're still working on Legends and LXP well, I dunno personally I doubt it

How could Rare show anything? They're still figuring out what the next game will be. Spencer has said not even he knows yet. Whatever they're working on is at prototype stages at best.

Isn't Kudo at Covert Creators? (another MS thing, presumably doing VR/AR or something)
Platform Next according to Linkedin also seemed to be a game studio

Goddamn I am forgetful now I'm kinda expecting something too...
PanicFreak

I doubt it. If they are far along enough to show anything they would probably still wait until after Fable Legends is out.
Same. I'm going to spend an hour at work reading new stuff.

Did anyone ever figure out who Leap Experience Pioneers are?

I agree except I don't think gears will get the anniversary treatment.
Steverulez

Gears doesn't need anniversary treatment because it still looks great. I think they will definitely do a collection of the games in a bunds, perhaps not the same way they did the Halo ones, but it would be crazy not to

Black Tusk are already working on it since February when MS bought the I.P
at best a CGI trailer... it is close to impossible to see a in game trailer

Well, thats good "news" for me! I thought they havent confirmed yet! I hope they can bring to gamescom a CGI or teaser though, but its indeed very unlikely!

Well Shinobi knew about it before it was even announced, so it doesn't seem like a last minute scramble, they've clearly were planning on things, but I appreciate not announcing things/events too early
I'm don't expect much, but I will probably still be disappointed.
CoD MP Reveal: 11. August
Xbox Briefing: 12. August

CoD is going the day before. Bro, do you even read?
It's like Sunset Overdrive. They're funding development but the dev still keeps IP rights.
What is LXP?

Yeah given that piece of information I think we will for sure see some halo 5 multiplayer news... Hopefully gameplay...
I think for MS E3 was all about unveiling The MCC and showing the world that package but with that out of the way I think we'll see some Halo 5 multiplayer with the beta around the corner. I'll wager We won't see anymore Halo 5 SP stuff until MCC launchs which in itself will be an advertisement for Halo 5.
As for surprises, I'm not expecting anything but I'd love to get a glimpse at what else Rare and Lionhead (outside FL) are working on.
Personally I'm just looking forward to the QB blowout. I'm one who loved everything about Alan Wake except the reptitive gameplay. QB looks fantastic but I don't know what the hell it's even going to be like so I can't get excited for it.
Nope, still one of thier highlights tho.
Not a highlight of the conference and that's what you posted about. It's alright, we all make mistakes.

I highly doubt it will be one of their highlights at the conference. There is a reason they are revealing the multiplayer a day before.

Microsoft owns the IP for Scalebound, actually.
Interesting thanks.

They really haven't... Just 30fps Cairo station gameplay and screenshots of Zanzibar not really exciting.
