The Xbox One Gamescom Discussion Thread!

To bad Rise of Tomb Raider is releasing the same day as Fallout 4 and there's no way in hell I'm missing Fallout 4 so RoTR is gonna wait until next year for me.

Quantum Break looked amazing.

Oh damn, Forge from Halo Wars is still alive

This industry has become crazy hasn't it?

Once again, Xbox Won, my goodness that's a lot of greatness. :D

Creative Assembly on Halo Wars is a good thing, but console RTS? Halo Wars 1 frankly stunk, because it was tied a gamepad. This should be a PC RTS (creatively speaking), but yeah I get it, Hall will draw more money on Xbox.

So, for me, this was a pretty decent presentation.

Halo 5 and Scalebound, right now, are two very strong reasons for me to get an XB1. If TR was a proper lifetime exclusive, that would be too. So not bad MS! Went from "kinda not interested" to "actually considering it"! :D

On the downside, no actual new first pary IP's. Only stuff we already knew about (but had no gameplay and/or launch date). No, Halo Wars 2 is not a new IP. The 2 should pretty much solve that question :P

Still, great job! Much better than what I was personally expecting! :)

I like this thread. I've never seen a mod fight before...

Didn't see t all, but there wasn't anything that really wowed or surprised me. The biggest LOL was Turn 10's video talking about rain is only possible on Xbox One...

AND Halo Wars 2 was the "Show Stopper" announcement at the end of the press conference. Now I'm convinced this isn't my earth.

Hey guy! Please follow the key, hopefully you'll work this out. By the underlined though, at least I know you're way more invested in this board than I am lol. Good to know. Lmfao dat attack, went for mah allegiance e-feels! :O

Additionally I'd like to see your dissertation on my desk in one hour about how I'm currently sensitive and the proof in the pudding because I feel like you'll just keep repeating this when it doesn't really mean anything. Really a waste of time for you(HEY look! More helpful advice :P)

..Wow, almost fell asleep.

And LOL at "greatest Xbox line up in history" LLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLL

Boring conference, nothing really new.

After this it's clear why Xbone is losing.

Up to the new conference.

@Zero_epyon: Mod fight? You mean, a civilized discussion explaining our different view points and moving on? :D

Pretty nice looking lineup on the X1.

PC support is still pretty pathetic though.

I'm hoping Scalebound comes together because as a huge fan of Platinum Games, this was really a let down and seemed really slow for a Platinum Game. I have hope though because it's over a year out I'm sure.

QB looks great though.

where the **** do you think you are?! That's not how we do shit!

Yes! A civilized fight is still a fight! lol

shh no discussions, only mod fights

Well that was a waste of a lunch break. Other than Gears of War and Scalebound Microsoft offers absolutely nothing that interests me.

Desmonic sucks.

Honestly Quantum Break looked just like another crappy and generic cinematic cover based third person shooter.

@charizard1605

Desmonic sucks >>>>>>> Chaz sucks.

GG.

Shots fired!

Exactly! Desmonic sucks way more than Chaz sucks!

Thanks for proving my point :D

No doubt there bro! I love Uncharted but like Halo I know what I am getting when I play it. And I enjoy them. Scalebound from what I have seen and we haven't even seen the Dragon riding stuff Kamiya mentioned looks to be something new and fun like Horizon for PS4 seemed to show me.

Pretty damn good overall....didn't see the new IP though unless Halo Wars 2 was it...blah

DVR is awesome news too

@Zero_epyon: Hmmm.... Now that you mention it, GT5/GT6 were both 1080p@60(ish)fps and had dynamic time of day and weather. but unlike forza the frame rate was not locked, so it would jump all over the place from 29-60 depending on the time of day,weather and how many cars were on screen, plus the immense screen tearing. But none the less the feats it achieved were super impressive for being on a playstation 3.

Forza 6 on the other hand is locked to 60 fps, but i'm not sure about rain, Rain really kills a GPU but i believe Turn 10 have the tools and knowledge to keep 60 fps in adverse conditions. Forza 6 also does not feature Dynamic time of day or Dynamic weather, While slightly disappointing, this helps keep performance to a nice even 60. which is really what you need in a simulation racing game.

Didn't know Unreal Tournament will support Dx12. Since Vxgi based lighting is supported by Unreal Engine 4, seems like now it'll be used in the game too because it was Dx12 exclusive feature if I'm not mistaken. No game supports Vxgi so far. Going to be awesome.

Scalebound and Crackdown 3 looked amazing. Quantum Break was game of the show. Fvck yeah Remedy. Would love to buy Xbox One for that game.

@charizard1605: But more is better, therefore Desmonic is better than Chaz :D

Too bad most people are going to wait to get Tomb Raider. Just about everyone I know who owns and XB1 will be getting both games on day one. You don't own an XB1 obviously, so you have no choice, but to wait.

I am now convinced that Microsoft hangs around PC gaming news sites to see what they can try to get on Xbox One.

So in other words, it looked like Uncharted, gotcha

Not when the modifier is suckiness... more suckiness isn't better, it just proves my point.

Check and mate. Boom.

Rise of the Tomb Raider is the only game that would make me wanna jump to an Xboner. Too bad it is also coming to PS4 at some time next year. So I will just be patient. It was a great conference either way. I am happy to see they are focusing on first party titles again.

@jg4xchamp:

I could be wrong but i think MS annouced that KB/M support is coming to XBO. So hopefully they'll aim that Halo wars works with both

Missed it all (work's been a nightmare this week) but from what I'm reading on this page @Desmonic got rekt :P

They really need to hurry up and port MCC to PC, I'm guessing at this rate Fall 2016 along with Halo Wars 2

So much for the PC support and more PC news coming at Gamescom.

The same blabber about the Xbox app and W10/DX12 shit we already knew and the demo SE showed a month ago.

Very good show. Next paycheck. Copping an X1.

Damn with Halo 5 Limited Edition coming soon for me and playing Rare Replay, MS is on fire. Nice to see that Xbox One BC is coming this November.

Microsoft chose good developers for Halo Wars 2. More RTS is always a good thing.

From what I've noticed from every gameplay released so far, Quantum Break has no "press x to stick to cover" mechanic. He just crouches behind objects to take a break before using his powers again to flank enemies. It's like Max Payne 1 and 2 where you can stand or sit behind objects and reload your weapons, use painkillers etc. Max Payne 3 had actual cover system and the game was built around that.

Nice showing. It's like their products, features, and games actually feels like they're going to be released when they're suppose to be released, sooner than later. Unlike their competitors which, sure it may have looked cool, but they are more like "TBA" "future" "just wait" "greatmess awaits" type of games and features. It's good to know these things are coming sooner than later.

But you can't multiply by zero bro :v

It would appear so, @blue_hazy_basic

What makes you think I like Uncharted? Uncharted is indeed pure shit too.

God Damn the Halo 5 bundle is 500$, was going to trade in my current Xbox One but f*k that

Quantum Break added real movie stars to it's game. It looked even better then before. Crackdown 3 looked amazing. 100% destruction of a huge city with the power of the cloud. You don't see that in games too often. I wanted more though. They didn't show enough of the gameplay. I still can't wait for this next year. Scalebound was insane.

Cows are having meltdowns on here.

WHERE THE **** WAS MAFIA III??????....sorry for the yelling

Yup, Tomb Raider looks just as boring as the last game.

A lot of games are trying to do something new these days, and Tomb Raider looks like a relic from last gen.

Sorry, shouldn't have made that assumption that you were automatically a Sony fanboy, force of habit.

Likely all dev copies were stolen and destroyed by @jg4xchamp :D

Welcome to 2001. Hope you're not flying to New York anytime soon.

And you'll obviously don't know what I own. Take you're fanboy elsewhere.
