GamesAsylum: "Many long forgotten IPs were launched on the original Xbox, back in the early days when Microsoft was trying to broaden the console’s appeal as wide as possible. They didn’t seem particularly bothered if they had a hit on their hands or not – in an attempt to steal some limelight from Sony and Nintendo, they were simply focused on getting new games on the shelves, and plenty of press coverage to accompany them."
Blinx should be the Xbox One's mascot. It definitely had a good premise and the gameplay was pretty ahead of itself at the time.
If I was MS I would consider Blinx more of a mascot than Conker, since Conker still has old ties to Nintendo.
With Rare now at a loose end, MS could always give them Blinx to mess around with. It probably won't ever happen, but it's fun to fantasise about such things.
Brute Force seems like a game that was meant to be developed now when 4 player coop is all the rage now. I would love to see a reboot / re-imagining of that game.
Mechassault (not listed) would also top my list of bring it back games.
Blinks, Quantum RedShift and Fuzion Frenzy realistically seeing a return also Bloodwake.
MS has a quite a few old gems Phil needs to consider bring them back.
Kameo deserves another game too.
