XO18 is this weekend, and it's shaping up to be Microsoft's answer to PSX, especially since there won't be a PSX this year. Whether it proves to be as big XO18 is shaping up to be an exciting event. It's time to let the hype machine run wild, and get some of our wildest predictions out there.
A job listing published by the UK studio reveals that its next project will be another entirely new IP.
Outriders developer People Can Fly's next game has been canceled after its publishing agreement with Take-Two Interactive fell through.
"the capital group of PCF Group S.A."
If you're getting funding from a group that needs two different ways of Acronyming itself, things will not go the way you want them to.
Outriders was crap. They slapped that game together and threw in a loot system to get players' attention. This game was absolutely jank and the always online nonsense made it stutter like crazy. People Can't Optimize.

1. What the 4-5 studios ms purchased are up to (could give 2 shits about them buying 5 more studios) show me games! Games i can play this gen!
2. Gears gameplay
3. Halo gameplay
4. CD3 single and mp gameplay

These 6 are what would make an amazing xo event for me... and none of these are far fetched... notice everything on my list is games games and more GAMES. If ms wants to hit it out of the park from here on out thats what they need to focus on. Not services, not controllers, not hours played, and things consumed... GAMES MF
