MS Will most likely struggle for exclusives in 2011.

Rare and Lionhead are releasing this year. Bungie are gone, Turn 10 are working on Natal support for Forza 3. 343 Indutries are unlikely. So what does that leave Gears 3 and that Crytek game?, anyone who thinks that's unlikely just look at 09, only 3 exclusives including Halo Wars. This is what happens when you have a 1st party as small as Microsoft's.

Unless I'm wrong, someone please explain how. Though it looks like Sony are set to win 2011 just with a bunch of sequels.

Please for the sake of my sanity, nobody mention Natal games.

We will just have to see..

I remember hearing somewhere that Greenburg is planning on getting more Xbox 360 exclusives.

I too am a bit worried about MS's mid to late 2011 lineup, then again they do have a long time in which they can announce more games.

Even if he is really working on getting core exclusives, it'd have to be around 2012 if he just acquired partnerships now.

Who wants exclusives when you have multiplats like Mass Effect 3?

The majority will buy Multipalts for the 360 and not necessarily Exclusives. Microsoft is still getting money from Xbox Live though.

What they both said. TBH, a lot of people play more multiplats than exclusives nowadays.

MS is really focusing on Kinect more then anything. A risky choice.

We'll see when we get there.

XboximusPrime

Not to mention a stupid choice as well. Even Sony is producing more core games.

Which is why I hope that Kinect bombs after launch so that they can get back to work on making more core titles.

oh you know...

Kinectimals 2

Kinect Party

Kinect Fit

Kinect Play

Kinect Adventures 2

etc.

rare has 4 teams and this is the first year since 2008 that any of them done anything, so you have a game from them. you have wingnut interactive whom are making a new IP that they started back in may 09 they should have it done by fall 2011. you have firebird studio that still hasn't made its flagship title having been working for a while now on an unannounced game. there is rumours of lost odyssey 2 from freeplus and perfect dark 2 from rare. T10 has forza 4 on a seperate team wach e3 2010 and listen to his words carefull he said we had another team working on natal support before forza 3 was even out, there's gears 3, 343 will wthout a doubt show off a trailer to the next halo but there's no way it'll be out until 2012,and then there's crytek with kingdoms, so if I'm correct thats; 1 race sim, 2 confirmed new IPs one potential new IP (from firebird) 1 game from rare(PD2 will probably be a controller based game with kinect hybridization),1TPS from Epic,and possibly lost odyessy 2. thats all without natal games. so its not really half bad at all better than this year actually.

Dammit I forgot a lot. But wow MS is kicking *** next year.

pretty sure M$ isn't too worried, they already have current online games like halo reach, halo 3, gears of war to keep them up when they don't have anything new coming out..so long they get that 50 for live they aren't in too much trouble.

Really!? Stores used to give FPS's away for free!?!?!??!?!?

ANOTHER YEAR....YET ANOTHER 360 IS DOOMED IN THE FUTURE POST.

wasnt the 360 supposed to be struggling for exclusives and doomed back in 2007? or was it 2008..no no that was 2009. or is it this year, i can never tell.

in fact WHY are we even talking about the xbox 360.

according to Cows here in SW the xbox 360 was supposed to be on life support in 2008, litterally crushed by the awsomeness of Blu-Ray , MGS4 and HOME.

yeah, howd that turn out?

360 continues to prove Michael Patcher and arm chair Nostradomises wrong year after year.

the ownage that 360 keeps dealing out isnt even funny anymore.
