"In before someone mentions that Phil Spencer is in it to win it."

Shouldn't phil spencer want to be #1? (he said he wants to "win" btw not have the most sales, those 2 things aren't exclusive to each other) That is his job, to ensure that the brand is successful. The real question is why you think that The head of Xbox wanting to win someone is means it affects fans in the same way? Also do you expect him as the head of Xbox to say "no, we li...

Honestly, PS4 has plenty of games still coming this year. As for being AAA, well not really. All I find ironic is those who claim Xbox One had nothing except for holiday yet ignore:

*Bigger games like - Ori, Screamride, and state of decay,
*Plus indies like - fruit ninja, iDARB, pnuema, funk of titans, goat sim, lifeless planetet, massive chalice, etc.
*F2P's like - happy wars, never winter
*And games still releasing this summer - Gears remaster, ...

I think the Xbox one is fine, it just isn't doing as well as PS4. Hardly a concern as PS4 is the on par to outsell the PS2. Xbox one is still selling very well and producing great content, and honestly the Xbox brand is becoming stronger than ever with it's recent leadership changes and the choices that came due to it.

I think people put too much emphasis on being #1, if every product had to be the best selling some of the best products ever made would not exist. Meet...

@xbob "Forza 5 was done half-ass and not a real forza game"

Really? It was a launch game for a new console generation that had a completely new engine, 1080p 60fps, (locked) over 200 cars, drivatars, full car customization (paint and parts) multiplayer with custom game modes, top gear challenges and car descriptions, free tracks and cars after launch, etc.

Name any other game this gen (other than horizon 2 and soon motorsport 6) that has had anywher...

"But is a two year gap between releases really a gap when it take 3-4 years at least to make modern AAA game?"

Considering they have done it for almost 10 years now, yes. Every forza game since the first was 2 years apart. Every motorsport game was 2 years apart.

Your argument really makes no sense at all when you look at the fact that they ARE doing it and have been since its inception. Not only do they release every 2 years but they always release...

I'll buy it either way, there are plenty of games to play and it is april 2016 so not long after holiday anyway. Why not hold it back until the coinciding film? makes sense to me, not sure how it is a news story.

"Plus motorsport and horizon are like apples and oranges"

Absolutely correct, and in my case I love the apples (motorsport) and the oranges. (Horizon) As I said some just see the name forza and aren't able to see anything past that.

Blue dragon 2 would be a day 1 for me. Not even a question, that game was amazing. They pushed it out with no promotion or advertising and then whined that it didn't sell. Super sad to see such a great game just disappear.

Totally agree with amped and viva pinata, those are both games that were great and hold a place that no other games are even attempting to fill.

Don't think with horizon (most of the same devs from PGR) that there needs to be another PGR, mech assault just isn't my kinda thing and halo wars was great, but not too worried about a sequel.

IMO no, we get a motorsport entry which is a sim every two years and we get a horizon entry which is an open world arcade racer every 2 years.

The quality of the games goes up with every entry and frankly the quality was through the roof to begin with. As long as playground and turn 10 continue to deliver amazing games I see no problem.

I think people just get hung up on the fact that they used the name forza for both franchises, they are different games. Eve...

Doesn't look too bad at all, which is surprising. I think they did pretty well at bringing the minecraft world to life if this trailer is any indication. Much better than I would have expected at least.

And the hate in the video is just sad. "Gamers" really are the worst, they will complain about anything, makes the real gamers look bad. If they aren't interested, just don't buy it.

Idk why, it actually looks alright, especially considering they had no story/characters or any template at all really to base it off of.

3635d ago 1 agree0 disagreeView comment

Literally what I came to say. Since when does a placeholder for the boxart (not even the actual box art itself) determine the value of a game?

Ansolutely idiotic.

@rain who are these people that are going to spam the thousands of people that place votes in every comment section? What would make people more inspired to send a message as opposed to someone making a comment?

You are just spouting a negative that would never happen. Gamespot has the ability to see votes, IGN used to, and plenty of other sites. Note a single time did I receive a message for a vote, because it doesn't happen. You are creating a false concern that would ...

It would matter because instead of being able to push an agenda in secret the community would know the true motives of the users. If users are going around saying one thing and then voting in an opposing fashion, or a more extreme manner, then it should be known.

Not sure why you think I have tyo message every person just because I can see their votes.... not even sure how those 2 things are related. We know the names of people who make comments and people rarely message each...

"Sounds reasonable, but realistically....why?"

What a stupid argument, I could just as easily say "why not" and be just ignore everything you said also. I already said why not.

Why would you want to have user be annonymous? If someone says "I hate mexicans" and then 4 people agree, wouldn't you say that adds toxicity to the community and that comment section in question? Also when people state literal facts and get disagrees,...

But if you don't have to be accountable for your vote then you can just go around downvoting valid comments and agreeing with invalid ones. Not sure how you don't understand that. The system is fine, the anonymity is not. If you make a vote people should be able to see that YOU made that vote rather than just a number of people who made that vote.

This and scalebound are two games that MS really need to showcase. I cannot wait to see more of scalebound (despite the lack of info and only having seen a cgi trailer) and quantum break is just amazing. Everything from sound, to physics (like destruction and time) to the astonishing visuals. Really looking forward to Gamescom, these are games that really have my interest. Probably more than anything MS showed at E3 and what they showed at E3 was great.

3637d ago 13 agree2 disagreeView comment

Not even close, this was the best game shown at E3 new ip or not IMO. Very excited.

Wow, that game does look awesome, hadn't even had it on my radar before now. (I knew about it, just hadn't seen enough) Really hoping to see more of RIME or wild soon too. Been sooo long since we have heard anything on RIME, but it looks soo good.

As for dream, I think people get it, just some like it, some don't. They give the impression that it is more of an art/animation tool than a game. There isn't really an ability to "play" anything from what ...
