Exactly, and that game was a financial bomb. Phil taking another shot at it can be a huge risk.
It's true, but MS seem to be changing their stance, and taking more risks with games such as Sunset, although only funded by MS. The game had a very average success which is a shame considering how good it is. Sony definitely lead on creativity and taking risks with new types of IP's but MS not so far behind in my opinion.
Well the numbers posted in the article are actually "As of 31st January 2015", I think it may be somewhat accurate, considering before Sony's 18.5m announcement, the numbers by VGChartz were over tracked by around a million units.

At no time did i state those games will release before October. Read my comment clearly and then make a statement. All i'm insinuating is that those games will be exclusive to Xbox. Even though one of them is a timed (not yet confirmed for PS4). Many fanboy's state 2015 is dead for Xbox, it's only true if you hate a brand which you don't support.
"not to be one of those guys, but who cares about Halo anymore"
Millio...
"It's outselling X1 because it's more powerful"
Not really, its actually coz Playstation is the better known brand worldwide. Another factor is Xbox is dead in Japan.
You say it as if Xbox doesn't. All three brands have some killer games to provide for their consoles.
@Disagrees
I don't get some of you people. I stated a fact i get a bunch of disagrees. Yet BitbyDeath states an inaccurate statement and yet fanboys flock him with agrees.
@WickedLester
I've supported all three console brands since the day i started gaming. Halo is one of the biggest franchises out there. That does not mean MS only provides games of Halo, Forza, Gears; as how many fanboys have stated on N4G. The same can be said for ...
"They have no games until October/November"
At least get you facts right! Screamride will be releasing in March, then they have sate of decay releasing in May 1st. Fable legends is also rumoured to be releasing early in the summer.
Thereafter we have:
Halo 5
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Forza 6
Ori and the blind forest. (Could be earlier)
Then any other title which has been announced May release this year...
35 Million PS4's
23 - 24 Million Xbox One's (if MS Become much more aggressive, Which i think they will be)
if either console reaches those numbers that would be phenomenal. X360 got to 13.5 million in two years, Xbox One is in line to that and MUCH more by the end of the year.
Damn! Hoping for Fallout 4, Just over 4 months left!
I hope they give more details on how Hololens will impact Xbox One. Can't wait!
@OculusRift
What a sick comment! you should be ashamed of yourself dude!

"Phil said kudo would be getting some attention soon, so its obvious they have something other than hololens in development for xboxone."
Yeah, I don't think he'll be showing anything other than Hololens. On the day of the reveal he tweeted:

Yeh its compared to the same quarter last year.
To be fair these numbers are not for us but for the investors.
Well Halo 5's multiplayer beta was tbh well received by fans and critics alike. Compared to MCC's online experience, halo 5's online experience was pretty solid with some delays here and there. You have to factor in MCC was a remaster of the OG games, Halo 5 is being built from the ground up.
"Halo 4 was only good because it was handed over"
Not sure what you mean by that, again the game was built the ground by by 343. In my opinion the...
The differences can be noticeable but nowhere near night and day. PS4 will always have the better graphical clarity but that won't make the Xbox One's clarity bad. Point is there will be a difference but not as big as some want it to be.
I read that during the QA session after the announcements, Phil was asked the question of streaming PC games to Xbox. All he replied was it's going to be two way street, but they're still figuring things out.
Wow, It look's awesome!
Those would be great for both brands. Sony will see the return of the PS2 era and MS will see the console outdoing the Xbox 360 by a good margin. Although i do think the numbers will be around 68m for Xbox One and 95m for PS4. That's considering price drops, and if MS become even more aggressive as time goes by.
