What MS, Sony, Nintendo should be or are doing next

Well truth to be told, Scalebound was one of the few unique exclusive games that Xbox fans could look up to. Part of them wants the game, part are concerned for Platinum [and the unclear story about how MS treated them], part are suddenly very much liking the game [and get criticized for it], many are just enjoying the ride, many are concerned about Xbox, and few are shitting on Platinum. Usual breakdown for a semi-notable game that became part of a controversy.
 
XBOX One's library has got even more stagnant regardimg good exclusive games. The upcoming exclusive games dont look that special. Scalebound was one of the few very promising games. Although based on what we saw it didnt seem all that impressive either next to the likes of games like Horizon Zero on PS4.
Gears 4 and Forza Horizon 3 are probably the last AAA games on XBOX One that we know of and what has been announced so far none of the games show signs of the same quality standard.

Did you miss Sea of thieves getting tons of game of the show awards at the last e3 ? Guess that's not AAA tho right ? Crackdown ? Halo wars 2 , state of decay and so on . I also doubt they would announce any new aaa titles at e3...

Hmm none of those are interesting for me. Scale bound interest me
 
that's okay , none of sony's games are interesting to me either. But the assertion was that they had no more Tripple A games. Not that they appealed to everyone all the time

Ah it was about aaa games.

Sorry, nest's comment on your quote was cut, missing the second paragraph. It appears fully after I tap it.

My fault.

Halo Wars 2 is a strategy and niche game
Sea of Thieves? Small indie games also win awards.It means nothing. Its an MMO that I dont see selling like hotcakes.
Crackdown? Last time we saw it, it was a tech demo and nothing to write home about
State of Decay? Really?

You are proving my point.
 
Sea of Thieves looks good, but it's still just a drop in the ocean (haha) in terms of what they need I think. I can understand why they killed Scalebound if it was missing that many milestones, but they have to realise their general reputation is pants at the moment and they don't seem to be doing a good job of bringing in new games at all. Bad enough that they moved all their xbox exclusives to joint pc ones , giving no reason for me to buy any more xbox games (my xbox is now used by my son for minecraft and roblox and me for BC) but to then lose unique titles for their platform really makes me wonder what their future plans are.
Ho hum.

Lol this is a huge troll post. Strategy games can't be Tripple A ? Sea of Thieves a huge game by Rare is being compared to indie games by you when everyone else compares it to a destiny or division type game ? Crack down nothing to write home about ?http://www.ign.com/videos/2015/08/06/17-minutes-of-explosive-crackdown-3-gameplay-gamescom-2015 what other game has destruction like this ? Whats wrong with state of decay ? Its an interesting zombie game or is it only sony zombie games that are big deals ?
 
I don't think Sea of Thieves will see release. It looks like a tech demo. It might go the way of Deep Down and Fable Legends. Running around on a boat for five minute spurts does not make it a award winning game. The last big E3 award winner was Evolve...
 
That's... a tech demo.

"Even Bayformers has a story component." <--- that's how one trolls:rolleyes: :mrgreen:

well that's from multiplayer . I am sure there is a single player component . Besides the rock is an amazing movie

That isn't what sea of thieves is. There is moer to the game https://www.seaofthieves.com/community also some people are in the alpha

None of these games are AAA, they are filler games. But because Microsoft essentially has nothing else, you overhype them into AAA titles. Do you honestly believe they will do well saleswise?

Its not that only Sony zombie games are big deals, its rather the opposite. Nobody would claim Days Gone is a AAA game, its a filler game. Nobody would claim Nier Automata is a AAA game. If they were on Xbox, you would however claim they will be 10 million unit sellers
 
isnt niear autmata is aaa? it looks like AAA game that were stuck in development hell since PS3 (looking at the asset and overall visual quality)

Production began in 2014 so i doubt its using PS3 assets. I dont think any Platinum game has been cutting edge graphics wise, they are usually 60 fps and smooth animations

The original Nier bombed saleswise. So i dont think Platinum/Square are expecting this to sell in Final Fantasy numbers
 
Strategy games can't be Tripple A ?
I think people have different views of what 'AAA' means. For me Star Craft II and Civilisation are both AAA strategy games, but my overwhelmingly important criteria of a AAA game is games that are meticulously polished and tuned by obsessive developers who will not release the game until they are satisfied its as good as it can be. Creative Assembly (Halo Wars) are such developers and they have an impressive pedigree in the strategy game genre. I'd argue they are the best strategy game developers in the industry.
