The Xbox One Thread - One X & One SXBOne

[Mr Latte]

Interesting. Is a team of 40 enough to build a PGR game though?

No it isn't but previous versions when it was Bizarre, Microsoft had a supporting team in Redmond do a lot of the work too. You will find old interviews relating to the development of previous games and that happened for sure so likely still does.

They will be smart and outsource for sure.

 

[dr_slump]

Or they use Forza Horizon as base... Would be a shame though, I really liked the old PGRs.

Microsoft does strange things sometimes.

 

[TokoTurismo]

If I had to pick one as a launch title it would be a new PGR rather than Forza.

PGR has been absent for a while and would be an ideal way to re-introduce the series, Forza however is getting to the point that it needs market share to justify a launch (as with GT).

This one is however trickier to call than GT6 being a PS3 title (that was always a no-brainer), as MS could well be willing to throw money at the shortfall in sales.

For me I would guess that we see PGR at launch and a new FM in 2014 (Oct/Nov).

I agree with Scaff. I would like to see PGR again, and it will be wise of MS to launch it first before a new Forza even shows up (which will be perfect for next year). I have this impression that if MS launches Forza first, I think it may not be good for it, especially for the fact that since GT6 is on the PS3, so why not do PGR? 💡

Is that meant to be a negative reason against doing it?

They'll show some boring FIFA 14 stuff...

Boring? that is one of Europe's most played games,FIFA is huge and exciting.Doubt they'll show much of it though

Turn 10 alreary said that a full FM title will be released this year, 2013. I think it was Greenwalt himself.

I think Microsoft is always good for a surprise and they always try to deliver. But I think we wont see so much games today, but i still hope for a small FM 5 trailer. It sure would be a nice answer to the Gran Turismo reveal.

 

[Mr Latte]

Yeah! Whoa!! Awesome!!! Really great!!!! Amazing!!!!!

Yes boring, not it's not exciting and it's always about the same in my eyes.


EDIT: 20min left...

 

[ch3ng]

I want to see FM5 with a Night racing today.

 

[dr_slump]

Does someone look the IGN livestream? Peter Molynoux said something like "There is no better way to show the power of the hardware than a Mclaren in midnight. The lightning..."

Note: this is not exactly what he said.

IGN? Don't want to hear their damn commentarys.
Nah, watching the official one on the xbox site.


EDIT: The stream started btw

 

[Earth]

Its a one hour show, so I dont think we'll see much. I think we'll hear about features, see the console, and maybe one or two games

 

[Robin]

They might pull a Sony and the box will be a no show.

Apparently analysts are saying it might simply be called 'Xbox' as part of MS's Apple-fication of their product lines. Consumers are savvy enough these days to know the difference between this and a discontinued console that came out over a decade ago!

 

[Lain]

Highly doubtful, considering how Major Nelson made fun of Sony's PS4 reveal, or lack thereof.

 

[Moglet]

1:10 to go and I'm sat watching the countdown. I'm not sad, honest!

EDIT: The Twitter feed below the video is pretty cool.

Yup. Let me know how it goes. I cant watch the announcement.

I thought it starts right now for everyone.

 

[Earth]

First Dan Greenawalt sighting

 

[Robin]

If one of them pulls a big blunder (always online, no used games, DRM etc etc) the other will dominate for the next decade. MS better be smart here because the rumours have been pretty bad on that front.

 

[Wardez]

Xbox One, wtf?

Microsoft knows you don't wanna just play games! YOU WANNA LIVE LIFE !!!

So here's a gaming console/DVR/Dream Machine/ Microsoft vending machine

 

[Kitten]

Xbox One, i didnt see this coming

Edit: So now you talk to it lol.

 

[20832]

Say hello to Xbox One.
I mean, it does look bloody sexy!

 

[Robin]

STUPIDEST NAME EVER! facepalm,

At least they showed the thing! and they showed it right away.

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

Xbox one

Are you serious? That's the name of it? They showed it? That is a terrible name. That cant be the name. They must be trolling us.

 

[dr_slump]

What? Xbox one?

 

[sems4arsenal]

Yes boring, not it's not exciting and it's always about the same in my eyes.

It's a yearly game that evolves everytime,Best football game by far .

 

[Nattefrost]

Wha... But how?... It's the third machine. That's just silly.

 

[iMikeTheKing]

Mclaren P1 in Forza?

 

[dr_slump]

Questionable, some people prefer FIFA, others PES.


Oh mclaren!!!!

 

[Robin]

There are two things you never put into a product name, especially a tech product...... 'i' and 'one'. It shows no creativity and comes across as serious cheesy.

 

[Wardez]

In 20 years, people are gonna look back at this having absolutely no idea wtf happened with the naming.

Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One.

Could be a way of Microsoft trying to say they won the console wars, " Xbox Won."

Premature celebration! xD

They just won't give up on the voice activated BS will they?

Looks like we're gonna get a bunch of FM5 info in this conference.
