This and Crackdown 3. Do I hear Halo 6 for Scorpio's launch?

Paytaa3288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

Would be a VERY strong launch line up. Haven't had Halo launch alongside Xbox since the original Xbox.

Halo 6, Crackdown 3, Scalebound, and maybe Forza 7 to launch the Scorpio would be huge.

As for Halo, maybe we'll get a Halo 3 Anniversary. That would bring in A LOT of attention. An insane amount of people have fond memories of Halo 3 (myself included). Would be bigger than Halo 1 or 2's anniversary.

Erik73573288d ago

Yea having it all on my pc very strong line up

Paytaa3288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

Yeah same for me but on the Scorpio.

Movefasta19933288d ago

I would prefer halo 3 or a reach anniversary, I feel like 5 is still growing

DARK_WOLF3288d ago

The xbox scorpio launch looks to be the best ever for xbox.

The launch will be epic with a lineup of games like that.

ScorpiusX3288d ago

A new Perfect Dark or even a new Splinter Cell deal with Ubisoft

BLizardXD3288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

@ Fries1223
I would just consider getting a Xbox Scorpio and go with cross-buy. you get two copies, which is great because if the pc version ends up being a bad port then at least you can play it on Xbox Scorpio while the pc version gets patched. cross-buy with Microsoft allows you to cover a wider range of gaming without being screwed over.

ONESHOTV23288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

Fries1223---- i wonder why do people like you pretend they are apart of something when they are not do you like to troll that much. on topic i'm also happy it coming to pc as well but i dont go around saying it like the way you are. and it doesnt matter MS is getting your money so keep up the support

Imagine Forza 6, Halo 6 and Minecraft all launching with Scorpio/ Scorpio VR. Damn. I think MS has stuff in development planned for scorpio reveal.

Mystogan3288d ago

Halo is on a 3 year cycle. We won't see a new Halo until 2018.

OpieWinston3288d ago

Halo 6 won't hit till 2018 not 2017. (3 year dev cycle)

_-EDMIX-_3288d ago

What on Earth do you guys need launch? To my understanding every game that plays on Xbox One will play on Scorpio.

That is like saying Horizon zero Dawn will be a launch title for the PlayStation Neo yet disregarding you're referring to a singular Market....

Soooooo sure those games will be released by the time the Scorpio comes out. I don't understand how a game could launch on a platform that by default it will already be playing on since it's going to be one market, there is not a specific version of scalebound releasing for the Scorpio, you're not buying a completely different game to play it on a different platform.

To my understanding all Xbox One games will work on Scorpio therefore I do not understand this idea of a game launching on a platform that by default it will already be available to play on

KiwiViper853288d ago

The first batch of games that take advantage of Scorpios power. Not that hard to understand

oSHINSAo3287d ago

.............................. .............FORZA 7 in VR

shiva13287d ago

It will be Halo 3 anniversary. Exact 10yrs by 2017 and Scorpio's launch lineup. That would be easy for Microsoft than H6.

lastking953288d ago

I think crackdown will be.

Wtf do ppl think halo 6 will be out in 2017? It's a 2018 title.

dilbig53288d ago

Why wouldn't they think that?

lastking953288d ago

Well because halo is a 3 year cycle duh. 2015 +3=2018 math is a good thing to know.

dilbig53288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

Main games yea but took 5 for 4 so you never know. Plus all the side Halo games they released.

KiwiViper853288d ago

It's hardly a "duh" moment. Just because the was 3 years difference between the last 2 games, didn't mean the next one needs 3 years also

lastking953287d ago

3 yr difference for ALL the main games.(5yrs for 4 if you dont count reach)

DonkeyWalrus3287d ago

Halo: CE 2001
Halo 2 2004
Halo 3 2007
Halo: Reach 2010
Halo 4 2012
Halo 5 2015

Always 3 years between releases except for Halo 4, although 343 started development of Halo 4 in 2009 before Bungie released Reach so it was in development for pretty much 3 years.

EpicSandwich3288d ago

Scalebound and Crackdown wow can't wait for project scorpio

DeadlyOreo3288d ago

You can't wait to play Scalebound at the end of 2017? Wow.

And here I was thinking it was close to release.

Sunny_D3288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

I mean didn't the Xbox man Phil Spencer state and I quote "we like showing off games that are close to release." But, we'll just pretend that never happened.😂👌

spicelicka3288d ago

It's launching early 2017. Will probably re-launch with Scorpio with better specs.

_-EDMIX-_3288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

@spice- why would it re-release on Scorpio? Isn't Scorpio just an upgraded Xbox One? By default it's playing all the same games I do not remember hearing Microsoft saying all games will be different skus. ie released twice.

I do not recall hearing Microsoft state that the Scorpio is a different platform and is in a Market than the Xbox One.

This seems like either wishful thinking or made up information or unbeknownst to you you did not read what a Microsoft stated or something but I never heard them say anything like what you just stated

http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...

So what part of all your games will work on Scorpio did you not understand? I swear people on here are basically making up whatever they want and disregarding exactly what the company is actually saying.

I once again have yet to hear anywhere that the Scorpio would basically be released the same games do you think that's how that works on PC? So if I have a GTX 980 and my friend has an R9 280 do we just buy different PC games for our specific gpus? Lol 😂😂😂

I'm sorry but this sounds like something someone who was not really well versed with PC gaming would say not really understanding that multiple configurations exist on PC without needing multiple skus .

Why on Earth would they make developers make a completely different sku a game when they could just merely update the game to work with the extra performance?

Lennoxb633288d ago

Scalebound is most likely coming out before the Scorpio. I doubt they'll delay the game for another year and a half cause it doesn't need that much time for development. They're a lot closer to completion than they were 10 months ago.

BlackTar1873288d ago

MS has been known to delay games on current system to have them for launch of a new one. You really think they won't do it again?

Lennoxb633288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

No. If they were to wait till the Scorpio release the game will have been completed for at least 6 months. Its a year and a half we're talking about. MS may have some control over the IP but not that much control. They'll want to release as soon as its done. Platinum are not about to put their money on hold for a console upgrade. (The Scorpio is not a new console. It's still an X1)

souldestroyer143288d ago

There's no scorpio exclusive games all games will be available on the xb1 the xb1s and scorpio backward and forward compatible.

_-EDMIX-_3288d ago

No this is not a new system this is a upgraded sku.

The game can be played on both so why on Earth would they delay it in favor for a lesser install base? Does that make sense to you? 😂

So delay it for the 20 million to enhance it for the couple hundred the thousand?

Sure...

BlackTar1873287d ago

It makes perfect sense to delay it for Scorpio. Stop prentending it doesn't it has nothing to do with the game quality or whatever it's a Holiday line up MS is only worried about every year. You guys are living in denial to the laid out path of MS business.

_-EDMIX-_3288d ago

Agreed mind you who is to say they can't work on the updated version prior to Scorpios release? If games will merely be updated to work with the extra configuration I see no reason to delay the game

Errorist763288d ago (Edited 3288d ago )

It will be out on PC before the Scorpio launch. They even showed it running on an high end PC at the E3 presentation.

andrewsquall3288d ago

Why are you getting disagrees with something we all know is fact?

_-EDMIX-_3288d ago

100% agreed which basically means the high-res textures in performance will already Exist Elsewhere before Scorpios release anyway.

Think that rumor that they'll still make a new console but at a profit at $1000 will be true though. The series consoles will remain their cheap alternative throughout next gen I would say. Keep in mind that game pass and pretty much going 3rd party is their main focus. They want to bring xbox everywhere.

GamerRN11h ago

If they don't maintain some kind of console presence, I think they will lose gamepass subscribers and just become a 3rd party publisher who eventually sells everything off

Xbox games are releasing on all platforms. Who needs this hardware? PS or PC is all you need

Flewid6389h ago

I've never owned an Xbox in my life and I have GamePass.

thorstein8h ago

The only Xbox I owned was the 360. I have gamepass for my PC.

Majority of Gamepass users are currently on console...

Even if they could get it down to $800 for a box that can run with comparable performance to a PS6 (at, say $200 cheaper) the population of people willing to buy such a thing would be so limited.
It would be the worst of both worlds.

Dark SNES Games Not Made For Kids

As consoles go, the SNES has quite the family friendly image. But, just like a Pizza Hut when you look at its hygiene rating or taste its pizza or breathe inside a restaurant, it’s not always good for everyone.

Just played Clock Tower. Yep. That’s pretty dark.

The golden age. No ESRB*. No ratings at all. It was glorious.

*I know the ESRB was formed by the industry to prevent others from stepping in and taking control.

Darkegg1d 18h ago

Interesting on ESRB. “ The industry, pressured with potential government oversight of video game ratings from these hearings, established both the IDSA and the ESRB within it to create a voluntary rating system based on the Motion Picture Association film rating system with additional considerations for video game interactivity.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...

Is that how the industry isn’t required to offer consumers a transferable digital token to sell games they no longer play or maybe don’t like? And then treat us all like pirates? That’s how the government is not involved, they had to placate the situation to avoid oversight.
