"Brand new" as in "never seen on an Xbox stage before".
Phil Spencer on Twitter
“Excited for the kickstart of Xbox 20/20 tomorrow with Inside Xbox. Especially love that all games have never been seen in an Xbox show before. New games for a new generation, studios large and small. Lots more thru the summer #Xbox2020”twitter.com

“OK, ok, yes AC has been on our stage before but not this one! And maybe one other game has been on our stage before but a lot of new games showing up which I find cool.”
None of this sounds like 'existing games, just uprezzed'. Spencer makes it clear that all but one game are brand new.
True it will probably on show 3-4 games.
Then again, XB is having a show a month now until the launch day. So we will have these moments frequently.
Going up early as I'm about to head off to bed, prolly wake up around the time it starts
Damn, not what i want to see in very first reply on this thread lol. shinobi knows everything so hype down.
pleeeeeeaaaaasssseeeeeee
Nah, won't be there. We have to wait for IGN's Summer of Gaming event (starting next month). While not confirmed, first game that shows on their teaser is Elden Ring...

I don't really care if they sit down and play 3 straight minutes of a game or show an in-game cutscene spliced with snippets of gameplay. I'm just curious to see what the games look like on XSX. If it's a game that I've never seen before I'm interested in how it looks compared to current gen games. If it's an updated/cross-gen game that I have seen before I want to see how it compares to the current gen version. There's so much stuff to be shown between now and when the consoles release so I'm not tripping. As has been said whenever one of these companies show something "Who cares who shows what and when? By launch we'll have seen everything". I've said that myself before and I'm keeping the same energy.
that's because of COVID...pretty sure we were originally just going to get a big blowout in June
Pretty much. Didn't they say there won't be series x exclusives for a year or 2? Therefore all the games shown today will be primary still for current gen with next gen improvements, but not developed for next gen from the ground
First next gen showcase and expectations got even more tempered, dayum :(Going up early as I'm about to head off to bed, prolly wake up around the time it starts
Does that mean even 3rd parties can't make Series X exclusives?
The statement leaves room for interpretation as to if they only meant their 1st party output, or if they also require 3rd parties to develop their games for current gen, but are obviously allowed to scale up for series x, or if 3rd party studios are allowed to develop exclusives from the start. Like Battlefield 6 for example, is Ps5 and series x only for 2021 if I remember the last news correctly
i dont think they will interfere and mandate with any third party plans. they can only speak for their own studios
Pretty much.
Hopefully when they said we should have low expectations they meant in terms of megatons and huge reveals, but right now I don't really care to see those, I just want something great looking.
Though I know most/all games will just be 'optimized for series x'
- AC Valhalla
- Watch Dogs Legion
- Elden Ring (probably not but a man can dream)
- Fifa and Madden
- Lord of the Rings: Gollum
- Crysis Remastered
- Ports/Optimized versions of games already released
- 1 big cool surpise announcement (Resident Evil 8, Mass Effect HD Remake or something similar)
This is my 'low expectations' predictions.

“If helpful the Thursday IX will have Xbox Series X gameplay from some of our partners. Note many of our biggest partners are working on summer timelines, so this is the start of these monthly reveals. Expect a variety of unique games with some new 3rd party IP as well this month...

Anyway, the negativity in this thread is depressing as hell, I'm sticking it on ignore so I can continue to look forward to our first proper look at what next gen can do.
I was feeling the hype until yesterday. I feel like this list itself is too big to be true. LOTR and ACV and one other cool Japanese dev title ( i predict Yakuza) will be the highlights
"Proper" you say? One Assassin's Creed Valhalla 1 minutes gameplay teaser and 20 "next-gen" indie trailers sure are very proper. The moment I realized Elden Ring will not be there, the fraction of hype in my mind has gone, the only game that has the highest probability of showing up is not going to show up, so games like Harry Porter RPG, Starfield, New Batman,,,,, also have ZERO chance.
I've never thought Assassin's Creed Valhalla will be the one and only star of this promising event, but reality is often disappointing.
Appetizer? Nice joke, more like a cup of water before the meal. Yeah, I will still watch it, I love drinking water too. But it will definitely be a disappointment and I'm already disappointed
They can but who is going to ditch the old playerbase for the new? No one.
Godfall is a third-party exclusive because Sony paid for it as a console exclusive and they were willing to make it for PS5 and PC. The vast majority of third party games without an exclusivity deal are going to be cross-gen for at least one year following next gen launch, just like always.
No surprise. Everyone is saying temper expectations. Nothing much big happening here. Oh well. It'll be nice to see some stuff
OP
OP
Didn't even know it's streaming on Twitch, thought it was just Mixer and YT
I'll get the link up there soon
Personally, I also expect a lot smaller (indie) titles that will probably be super cool, but are not exactly screaming "next-gen".
Obviously, as most third parties aren't leaving the 150 million current customers behind in the first 1-2 years.
People are expecting something different?
Developers and publishers aren't going to drop a 150+million usersbase because there are shiny new consoles in the market.
We might see one or two next gen exclusives but the rest is going to be cross-gen
Maybe some will but it's largely irrelevant, most publishers don't immediate alienate the current generation in favour of next gen. It's why the exclusives from Microsoft and Sony are what everyone should be really excited for.

We aren't getting GCI in a gameplay (trailer/demo) event.
Who is Spencer? A insider? :P
Ninja Theory showed RT already iirc.
No.
No, it doesn't leave room for interpretation. Booty talked about XGS games.
Should been more clear. I mean there's not gonna be any currently unannounced games. I feel like it's gonna be pretty much all games that are already out and will be getting series x patches.
The thing is that if a game actually targets 8K than it's likely to look like a current gen game in every other way because obviously 8K takes a metric fuckton of power render and other aspects of the game will need to be scaled back. Kind of like how a last gen game like Bioshock Inifite can target 1080/60 on the base Xbox One. The same can be said of 120FPS, you won't be able to push the settings terribly high if you want the framerate to go up that far.
I feel like Microsoft should be showing there own games too for there first gaming reveal. Seems like a mistake. The reason I dropped off Xbox was because of lack of quality exclusives. Just showing third party for there first reveal doesn't bode well. You know Sony gonna be bringing them big exclusives. Heck 95% of these games are gonna be on ps5 too. Xbox series x got the tech ain't no doubt bout that, it's a phenomenal machine, I just need reassurance they can make diverse quality exclusives on a regular basis too.
I'll take that type of trailer as well, I love both Origin and Odyssey, I can't see how Valhalla can disappoint me even it they try to trick me with a target trailer. I just want to see and know more about the game and characters and general setting. Super hyped about it!
