The state of xbox exclusives is the saddest shit since....? I can't remember a home console that had it worse. Atari jaguar maybe?

Definitely not one of their best, but I don't think you can argue with the sentiment. Seeing the DICE awards last night was quite sad, insofar as Cuphead was pretty much single-handedly flying the flag for Microsoft.

I assume, with the launch of the Xbox One X, that they must have a ton of game in development and plans for the system, but right now it seems to be going through something of a dry spell.

I like my Sea of Thieves and Horizon 4 this year and think they will be the largest exclusive games on any console this year, but thank you for worrying, Wein.

Hey they ain't wrong, I never hear about Xbox stuff anymore besides Sea of Thieves and that's only because it's about to come out

It was more sad than funny tbh. They could have just recorded themselves kicking a homeless guy in the street for a couple of minutes and had the same impact.

I'm pretty hyped for Sea of Thieves though...

I laughed.. a little bit.
Way over the top though..

It would probably be more funny if it wasn't true :p

That doesn't seem to be the case, considering Xbox threads are very active in this forum and they almost always turn to shit. There seems to be a lot of concern regarding Xbox!

Is this parodying something? Not sure why they are ragging on Xbox out of nowhere.

They're parodying xbox one's announcement and news cycle which has a small number of exclusives. Which i'd probably think is funnier if any consoles had much in spring ever besides ps4 last year. It's probably just bait tho lol

Definitely not one of their best lol but I appreciate their output. Love these guys.

To be fair Nintendo doesn't have any big games announced for this year either (unless you count Fire Emblem which we haven't even seen footage of). I'm sure both companies will have something to announce.

That... was something I guess. I used to find these guys entertaining, but this feels like the video version of a fanboy shitpost... Punch up guys, not down.

Its common for Spring and Summer to be mostly dead for exclusives except for one or two. If anything its just this gen that more big games have been launching in the later winter months. Used to be just fall time, but delays and number of quality titles have been pushing more big titles out from fall and into winter. Hopefully more games launch in summer too in the future.

This video was just full of cringe, and sort of sad for both Microsoft and the guys who made it.

Yes, it sucks that Microsoft seems to have only 5 or so first party exclusives coming out this year, but the funniest thing these guys could come up with is to make fun of this? It's like roasting the slow cousin at Thanksgiving.

Oh well, I guess there is a large enough audience with an anti-MS sentiment where this will hit all the right notes to become a meme to be used against Xbox gamers.

Is this supposed to be mocking a recent presentation or something? Haven't been on the up-and-up with Xbox news lately.

They are pretty right. It's all Sea of Thieves talk. Remember Crackdown 3? We don't. HA, damn it. can't wait to see more of Crackdown 3 for the next 2 E3s. What about State of Decay 2? There's a State of Decay 2? Yeah, that video promo thing is something.


I think it's supposed to be cringe.

Woah woah. I'm looking forward to both of those, especially FH4 but let's not get crazy.

Neither one of those would be "larger" exclusives than a Switch repackage of Smash Bros WiiU/3DS if that came this year

And they for sure aren't "larger" than God of War, Spider-Man and Pokémon, which all could be 2018.

Not their best work.

The "Xbox has no exclusives" deal had been beaten to death to the point where it's depressing.

There isn't really much to discuss here.

If people want to discuss Microsoft's first party lineup we already have a thread for that.
