My hopes for XO18 -

- Official Xbox One announcement for Gears Tactics and gameplay video
- Battletoads gameplay trailer
- Ashen release date

I get the above three, I'll be happy and satisfied. Anything extra would be a bonus.

You can use a keyboard to navigate the dashboard right now. Windows key brings up the guide.
there is a reason traditional pc games don't come to console, its extremely hard and expensive to redesign your game around another control scheme, especially when the results are usually not too great.

Yes! Especially when UI and UX talent is rare and constantly being poached by other industries.

Matt Booty being present at X018 isn't too surprising. In fact, we should probably expect it, and we should also expect Phil to take a less visible presence over time after his promotion. He's going to have to be able to rely on other to represent the Xbox platform and Windows gaming.

Having said that.

I am choosing to hype myself and believe he is there only to make acquisition news this year.

This is crazy talk. Gearbox publishes games and we already know (as it's been leaked extensively over and over again) that Borderlands 3 is in development.
Yeah, and I was expecting it last E3, but maybe they didn't expect Battleborn to bomb so hard and that really affected their numbers, and thus, what they could afford to put into what Borderlands 3 needs.

As a side note, MS could pay to settle any remaining problem with Sega because of Colonial Marines and that will be seen as a good gesture by Sega maybe helping being open to bringing games?

Just trying to connect the dots here to kill time before the event and having fun with it

Why do you exactly believe him? He hasnt seen anything new
He said Crackdown 3 would get delayed to 2019 before anyone else, he called the reason it got delayed (because it didn't feel like Crackdown) months before Phil Spencer said it, etc. He said Microsoft would announce Obsidian this year back in June, months before Kotaku reported on it. He said Project Wisdom (a new Fable) was in development by a UK studio that wasn't Rare before Eurogamer confirmed it.

He has sources whether you want to believe it or not.

Man this thread caught fire today.
One time when Klobrille comes back we should invite Rand & Jez over and have a little party (mods can bring the piss) lol.

Xbox/MS really feels like a new company these days

This.

He's also a developer so he's probably done some networking and come across information not out there for the public to find.

He's certainly not a spy or an insider at Microsoft leaking information off of documents.

He's a resourceful sleuth that may know a few people, and in respect of Crackdown 3 specifically may have made connections through his public admiration of the game and shared what he seems appropriate with us.

Klobrille has never claimed to be anything other than a person that just knows where to look.


Which makes his accuracy all the more impressive. It's a shame he's not here but I suspect he'll be back after X0.

We have more leaks!!


https://www.reddit.com/r/xboxone/comments/9v4yaa/rise_of_national_for_xbox_one_maybe_soon/

Rise of Nations (a Windows 10 exclusive strategy game Microsoft Studios published) has been listed for Xbox One and is showing up as being able to install to Xbox One consoles remotely.
Would be nice!

PS. It's not Windows 10 exclusive. It's released on Steam as well, with cross-play between these two platforms (which is rare situation).

I'mma need MS to hurry up and mass release Project xCloud. I've been engrossed with RDR2 and I'm upset when I have to tear away from it to go to work. Would love to be able to play it on the go right now.

Yes, but related to Crackdown he claimed to have in touch with people of the development team a few times now. On one of his tweets he also claimed to have seen some of the footage about CD3, that's why he is promising that.

Ninja Theory is one of my favorite devs, so if we see their new game at X0, that alone will put the event on the level of E3 for me.

I really hope the KB+M support does indeed bring quality RTS games to Xbox One with "classic" control schemes. Age Of Empires is a must at this point, but if the WarCraft 3 rumor is true that's going to be so glorious, since I assume it'd also mean custom games and cross-play. And that Humble Bundle tease? I'm so in for an Xbox bundle tbh.

Hajime Tabata has been fired from Square Enix (well "resigned" but I doubt he would resign right after he started working on a new IP he was really excited about working on, he was probably pushed out and they let him announce his resignation).

Tabata is looking to start another company, maybe Microsoft could help him build a studio?

Tabata could be really one that can take back scalebound by the way...he is good for taking care a dead project haha ( i really want to see a New IP from him !!)

I actually was very cynical for a long time and Scalebound made me get a PC and PS4. I haven't used my XB1 in nearly 2 years.

A part of me is having fun here, but I'm genuinely optimistic based on what I've seen and heard.



That's one way to look at it, but Phil said he decided to give it more time because, while it looked good, it didn't feel like a proper Crackdown game, so they put it back in the oven a bit longer.

To me, that speaks to how much they value the IP and how confident they are it can be done.



I wish he had joined 343i and sorted their shit out. I'd feel much better about Halo if he was still in charge.
IDK why he didn't join 343, he's still a great friend of Frankie (they went together to some gamescon /pax using a private jet)

So, a friend of mine noticed this nosing around in Robeyone's (Senior Producer on Age of Empires) followed games on Live, and I just confirmed it (I took the screenshot):

Is this the new name for the game or just a placeholder? New Providence is the city where the game's Campaign takes place, but it seems odd to put it into the title, when everyone already knows it as Crackdown 3.

Edit: he found this too, but once he closed it and tried to reopen it, it was showing PC instead of Xbox One. I couldn't replicate it.

OH hype
Microsoft sitting on Banjo for as long as it has is probably the single most cynical thing they have done to Rare or perhaps in the gaming space in general.
Guess that's more a matter of Gregg Mayles waiting for the right inspiration ?
Completely feel that. Very unnerved by the lack of hype surrounding the event.
While I'm not expecting E3-2, I'm hoping for a good output from MS that really shows things turning around for whatever someone feels they need to work on.
I personally, will be bummed over a show that is heavily focused on updates for already released games and the like. New reveals of any sort are what i'm most interested in.
If the new reveal is the Nt hidden project even gears pop would be more interesting

OH WOW. Not sure how I missed this.

This looks the perfect inside Xbox to me

He said that someone is helping him from the inside but this would mean that he's not the insider.
Phil going to Japan...
Hajime Tabata leaving Square...
Week of X018...
3 days until X018...

just kidding :)
Tabata is dangerous, they should stay away from him

after the squeenix shitshow i'm worried X0 is just a conference to tell people microsoft is finally closing down and becoming third party

obvious /s in case anyone havent noticed

but no guys i love what tabata did to save FFXV and i enjoy the game but his main creative projects were mostly....unsalvageable crap. He's the man behind type zero and the third birthday just to remember folks. dont give this man money and a studio to be the JAPANESE CONTENT for xbox, would rather have satya massaging SWERYs shoulders to make him like xbox again

Why, he salvaged piece of crap production into something serviceable relatively well

Didn't want to bump an old thread unnecessarily, so just going to throw this random Game Pass question into the unofficial official Xbox thread:

If Microsoft are releasing a proper Game Pass for PC, do you think it will be a separate subscription to Xbox GP, bundled in there with it, or a nominal top up if you want access to both (assuming there's non-Play Anywhere PC titles on it)?

Probably same subscription for both, play anywhere titles overlap, maybe a small increase on the gp fee. It's tied to live after all.

I don't think they are going to add exclusive PC gamepass titles. Anything PC only they want to add they will probably port to Xbox now with the kb/m initiatives. Like AoE and Rise of Nations

It will absolutely overlap. Any PC titles will also be on Xbox.
