PG:Microsoft will host a Showcase Event at Gamescom 2013 on Aug. 20, where specifics of the company's self-publishing policies for Xbox One will be disclosed.
Meanwhile Sony has 13 games to unvreveil, including the projects of Naughty Dog, Quantic Dream, Santa Monica evolution studios, Media Molecule, SCE Bend Studio etc. :)
It is hard to put a finger down on what exclsives are left for MS to show. MS has a history of having far more third/second party exclusives due to partnerships.
MS has 15 first party exclusives the first year, which eight of them are new franchises.
I do not know how many has been announced, but it is specifically Microsoft Studios, which likely means major AAA games like Ryse, Quantum Break and Titanfall are not in that count.
I don't think we can put a number on how many games to expect, there's still quite a few first party studios on the MS side that haven't announced anything.
I really excited to see what else they have in store for us gamers. I hope they show the game Black Tusk has been working on, I am very curious to see what that is about. Also a little more on Quantum Break.
I'm also very excited for both conferences. As November edges closer, all the fine details of both consoles will be clearer. I personally don't care about specs of the individual console really, as each will have their own pros and cons. I have both already paid for. I'm just eagerly awaiting the showing of more on the games so to make a final decision on which of those to pre-order. Show me and impress me with the games and I'll show you the money!!!!!!
Time to hit the reset button and see what the big green monster has in store for us. I really do hope they are clear and concise about:
1. Hardware 2. Specifications that us nerds want to know 3. Live kinect demonstration not of the development features but actual end user software. 4. Digital content distribution and sharing (if any) 5. Demonstrate live Xbox one and kinect user interface. 6. Self publishing, the full story 7. More Games Games Games!
And I'm sure there is more that isn't coming to mind right now.
I'm optimistic but reserved based on their almost comical handling of their new toy thus far.
Agreed! I personally would cringe every time MS announced anything for the first Kinect but I am extremely excited for the 2nd Kinect and what it has to offer.
Quit trolling it's only a rumour. Also since Jonathan blow is already working on the witness which is currently using up 5gb it's a poor rumour at that.
I'm really excited for both Microsoft and SONY conferences!
The 4 and The ONE!
Let the battle commence.... ^ Agreed :)
Well we know one of their huge announcements are already out in the air.
And considering they only have about 3 unannounced games for the first launch year it will be interesting to see what they have.
I really excited to see what else they have in store for us gamers. I hope they show the game Black Tusk has been working on, I am very curious to see what that is about. Also a little more on Quantum Break.
