What I want to see in the short-term are more crossovers. For example, it was great to finally see a Halo nod in Sea of Thieves this week - I've wanted more of that.

I hope SoT can continue to have tasteful references to other Xbox games. The way Rare implemented/stylized the Halo crossover made it so it didn't cheapen SoT's own mythology and visual identity. Forza Horizon 4 also did that great Halo content. I hope other Xbox Game Studios titles can reciprocate.

Okay, who owns Black Corps? Do I petition Microsoft and Rare? Or does Nintendo own it?

Anyone know if Mech Assault is fully in the Microsoft "bucket," or if there's a weird rights overlap that keeps it in the freezer?

Outside of Crimson Skies and Mechassault, I can't think of any dormant Xbox franchises worth returning to.

Maybe take another crack at Azurik?

The only pre-existing IPs I would want Tim Schafer to touch are in the Lucasfilm (Disney) vault.

Maniac Mansion 3... a man can dream.

I want a new Outwars. Give it to Obsidian. I'm almost drooling at the idea of playing a high budget Outwars. It's the Starship Troopers we've deserved all these years.

Something to remember is that what this actually means is that they're allowed to make a pitch on any old ip, but that doesn't necessarily mean that pitches for certain ip aren't going to be immediately rejected

people need to chill, MS isn't going to make a new Crimson Skies


until they purchase Factor 5 and they make it, and then put out some exclusive Star Wars Rogue Squad esque games in the current and evolving cannon
