Alan Wake 2, Gears of War 4, Respawn Exclusive, And More Xbox Reveal Predictions

GameRevolution:

The fellas over at Microsoft are gearing up for a major event on Tuesday when the company finally reveals its successor to the Xbox 360—heck, they've even constructed a massive tent to house the show—and I'm bursting at the seams with excitement. Will the new machine be a cable box replacement? Will it require a constant internet connection? What games (if any besides Call of Duty: Ghosts) will be shown?

Ooo, Alan Wake pls

[alexcosborn]

I know, right? American Nightmare simply wasn't enough!

[omi25p]

Your My Mothers Crazy stalker?

We need Alan Wake 2 but I hope it isn't like American Nightmare....it was too action packed for me like they were trying to turn the action dial up to 10 for a bigger audience, it just didn't suit the overall style of the game.

Alan Wake 2 needs to be slower, creepier, more suspense filled and scary.

Does anyone know if American Nightmare is part of the story? I just don't want to play Alan Wake 2 to find out I have to finish AN to understand what's going on.

[BlmThug]

PGR5 and Forza 5 to complete my racingasm for this year :D

GT6, Forza 5, PGR5 and Driveclub would be a EPIC year!

[TrendyGamers]

I think a Halo teaser of some sort will be shown at the Xbox reveal or E3.

[alexcosborn]

I sure would love that, though, I highly doubt we'll get one :(

Unless it is Halo 2 HD.

[Rainstorm81]

I think they should show off something new, it feels like every E3 theres a Halo teaser or Halo Gameplay demo.

I think they should hold back then WOW everyone with Halo 5 at next years E3

[kneon]

That's just not true, they alternate between Gears and Halo :)

[Bigpappy]

I know what you mean. Like Kill Zone and Mario right.

A new halo will lots of new adjustments would send Xbox fans wild. I might even start playing it again.

[rick1woller]

Ide love to see Project Gotham with the management side of the Dreamcast version (known as MSR back then). I found it interesting and I dont know why they left it out of Xbox versions

[dbjj12088]

Can't wait to see the Respawn game.

[Abdou23]

If Respawn really wants to compete with COD, then an exclusive would kill them instantly.

[Jek_Porkins]

They already said most the games wont be revealeduntil E3, that being said, I think we'll see a couple of exclusives, they will probably talk about what went into creating the machine, what their vision for it is, show us what it can do with games, sharing, apps and entertainment, then at the end reveal the console itself. That would save all the game surprises for E3.

[FarCryLover182]

I really want to see Alan Wake 2 and I am intrigued about what the Respawn game will be like.

But please, I hope they don't show off Gears of War IV. The Gears franchise needs and deserves some time off.

[nthstew]

i don't think there will be any gears of war 4 since they ended the story in gears 3 ... maybe another prequel perhaps

[FarCryLover182]

I just meant another Gears game. Didn't really mean it'd literally be Gears IV, but you get my drift.

[NavydAd]

This is going to be a good system. I can't wait to hear them announce some of the exclusives and timed exclusives. I think it is obvious that Activision games will continue to be timed exclusives because they are going to announce more about the new COD on the same day. I know people think it is cool to hate on Microsoft and Activision...but people will always hate winners. It is the burden we bear for being better than everyone else.

[thechosenone]

Oh lord, it's the same games over and over again don't you people get tired of playing the same old thing?

[Jek_Porkins]

We don't know any of the new IPs because they're new! So of course people are going to guess what they have heard the most rumors about, this doesn't mean they wont have new games to show.

[Hufandpuf]

MS hasn't revealed anything new yet so all we have to go on are the things we already know. How is it different than KZ:Shadowfall, GT6, Uncharted 4, MGS5, etc. etc.?

[loulou]

yeah i know. another gt, another killzone, another infamous, another uncharted..

not a sequel in sight for the ps4

[daedra]

just like sony showed the same games over and over with the ps4 reveal right?

[brewin]

I really hope they reveal some new IPs. Arent people getting sick of all these sequels yet? Alan Wake is one thing beacuse there has really only been one physical release. American Nightmare was essentially DLC that didnt require the OG game. But seriously, think back to the dawn of the 360...everything was new IP. We had Mass Effect, Gears of War, Dead Rising, Saints Row, etc. Then we just got sequel after sequel of those games alomng with Cod, battlefield etc.

I really want to see something new and different. If next gen is all about prettier versions of the same thing we have played over and over I wil b pissed. Do we really need random linear FPS game rehashes? Lets hope devs try harder this coming gen. Sony seems to be on the right path and Nintendo always tries different stuff, lets hope MS follows suit and gives this thing some new experiences!

[gnothe1]

you say sony seems to be on the right path?..didnt they show another killzone game(sequel)...didnt they show another infamous game(sequel) an didnt they just announce GT 6 for PS3 an PS4 ...again ANOTHER SEQUEL...but sony seems to be on the right track....YEAH RIGHT....

[brewin]

But for every sequel they also have an original game not part of any other series. Knack looks kinda cool. The last of us, beyond, indie games up the arse, etc. I'm sick of the sequelitis too, but at least Sony is trying new IP. What's the last new IP ms released or talked about? I know Sony fucked up a lot but they are going back to providing some very quality content. Ni no kuni for example. Ms did have a lot of first party stuff that got overlooked too so they didn't bother trying in that Department and that bothers me. I loved blue dragon and all that stuff, but Sony has got some heavy hitting original titles coming and I don't think that can be ignored.

[loulou]

brewin, face it. you just trolled with your sequel comment, but forgot that most of sonys games are all sequels.

gtfo

[brewin]

@loulou

Thats funny I'm always on here defending the Wii u and I make a good comment about Sony and now I'm trolling? How that fuck was that trolling? My favorite game systems of all time are the SNES and the 360... I also love my ps3 because Sony has brought some killer games into the fold late in this generation. I'm am glad I had he chance to play ni no kuni, heavy rain, little big planet, and a few others. I stay away from their sequels for the most part, but EVERY game company relies on sequels. I'll defend Nintendo til the day I die but they are DEPENDANT on sequels... I'm not the fucking troll here asshole. I just hope that ms brings some new IP out because I want to see some new shit. MS introduced a lot of new IP this gen and i just hope they do that again. Less sequels more new shit. I still like some sequels, but we don't need 4-5 games in a series in one generation. Every company that does that diminishes their IP.

EDIT... And just for the record, I couldn't give two shits about the new kill zone or gran turismo. I hate those series. I play my shooters and racing games on 360.

[alb1899]

Last of us is Uncharted revisited!

[SanMarco]

Respawn exclusive?! Ha. Ya right.

[ScubaSteve1]

alan wake 2 yes gears of war 4 YAWN. i really hope they get better exclusives then releasing the same game over and over

[MadLad]

As long as Alan Wake 2 comes to pc, I am fine. With nothing being announced, and with what I've seen from the platform by the end of this generation, I have no interest in the next xbox.
I would hate to see one of my favorite new IP stuck on a console I don't see myself buying until, maybe, the end of its life-cycle.
Really don't care what the ex-creators of CoD are working on and Gears of War has been off my radar for a long, long time.
Halo, Forza and maybe Fable are still good in my books though.

[Max-Zorin]

When May 21 come, N4G is gonna permanently look like Saving Private Ryan.

[ichimaru]

cpl upham!!

[DevilishSix]

I would like Alan Wake 2, but Gears is getting long in the tooth. We have had two Gears games in little over a year and a half. I think the franchise needs a couple years off. Plus many fans are bitter over the last one.

What MS really needs to do is show some NEW STUFF. Some new IP's. They haven't launched a new IP since Alan Wake, that is years ago. It is time to show what you got MS, if you got anything to show, that is.

[Urzusix]

Think Ill get the PS4 as am sick of paying to play games online, a dashboard full of adverts, Halo 4 was one of the worst games last year so unless they really wow me @[email protected]

[ichimaru]

wrong article. do you have these comments pre made or something

[daedra]

if Microsoft shows Halo 2 HD remake, its over for the other competitors, no questions asked, Halo 2 is the BEST fps of any generation and it paved the way for all fps currently and the future, I have never had so much fun with a game than Halo 2 in my entire existence I just hope they don't change the gameplay, no add on's or nothing, just halo 2 in HD glory.
