Imagine hoping games are bad because you have brand loyalty to a company who doesn't pay you a dime.
Big Xbox exclusives like Perfect Dark or Everwild still years away according to Christopher Dring

Microsoft continues to invest in first-party games, but Phil Spencer didn't want to show trailers for games 3 years out - VG247

Phil's full of shyt about that one
But it was quite obvious that Avowed;Fable, SOD3, and PD are 2022 and beyond given they just showed cgi trailers w/ no release dates
Halo; Psychonauts 2, and likely Starfield dropping this year.
Hellblade 2; possibly Avowed, and Wolfenstein 3 coming out in '22.

Thanks to the lawyers uh, I marbled the foyer
You can tell from the last bullshyt showcase
where they showed a documentary of Iceland instead of Hellblade gameplay

My Xbox currently just sits in my office as an expensive book end I haven't found much other use for it

Wonder if they'll turn PD into another CoD infused generic shooter.

Yeah, i think most of those games, like Avowed and HB2 are like winter 22 or 2023 titles. A CG trailer is basically telling you they don’t have anything done yet. Not only was that a bad sign before but now you have to take covid into consideration and they can’t get away with releasing really buggy games after cyberpunk.
Look at Elden Ring, was announced in 2019, it’s now 2021 and it doesn’t look like it’s coming this year.
Dumb thread everyone knew this and they are still hiring for these studios.
Microsoft has Bethesda and other 1st party studios coming out wayy before these two titles.

Series X isn't going to be worth the money for 3 or 4 years. So I hope they come back with a bang. I feel like they rushed this console out just because Sony was dropping. The name itself feels like a working title and they have no games for this system that you can't get anywhere else. They weren't even close to ready for the next generation. I don't get how you drop a console without at least one solid exclusive or reason to buy it over the competition

Don't know why anybody would be surprised about this 
People would argue Gamepass is a pretty good holdover and a reason to buy vs a PS5. Some of the gaming media is starting to realize that as well, as evidenced by the articles and posts in this forum. For casuals (the majority of the population) who don't play every game that comes out when it's released, GP is a pretty good deal. A lot of their heavy hitters from last gen weren't played by the majority either, so the updated versions are new to a lot of folks.
I don't think this "exclusive" talk the Coli loves to talk about represents the normal consumer, but I could be wrong.
