Rumor: Microsoft to have marketing rights to BL3, Cyberpunk 2077 & more (UPDATE: May be inaccurate)

I think there is a big difference between having a marketing deal and some marketing deal for games claimed to come out this year.
No one talks straight here anyway.

Starfield is probably showcasing at bethesdas E3 this year, was rumored to be there last year, but was pulled for polish.
could see a Mobile game getting the same treatment as Vault game, but this one could be a planet / mega city level sim.
I'd say a more realistic list is
Article is UP here is the game list:
Splinter Cell
Metro Exodus
Division 2
Cyberpunk 2077
Borderlands 3
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Anthem ( if microsoft is making a battle royal in the halo universe then it would take anthems spot imho)
Starfield
Fable

I agree. As long nobody specifically tells me what items on the list are incorrect I rather discuss the rumored list than speculating about it which games have a deal or not. Normally my reaction to such a comment would be "distraction tactics" because it is so unspecific.
Depends on the game.
Assuming no Gears or Halo (mainline) this year there are many 3rd party games that would be a much bigger bet.
That was the old list
Splinter Cell
Metro Exodus
Cyberpunk 2077
Borderlands 3
Battlefield 5 WW 2
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Anthem
Elder Scrolls 6
Madden NFL 19
This is the new list.
They have no obligation to divulge information that should not be public anyway.
Careful he's a mod here.
But I agree, too many of these insiders get off on being vague and having internet notoriety.
Fable? Really? I can't see Microsoft having a marketing deal with themselves. It seems a little counterproductive.
Then why comment at all?
All it did was derail the thread even more especially since neither "insider" contributed anything meaningful to the discussion. The distraction tactics comment made earlier is pretty spot-on
So they've taken Division 2 out and added in ES6 and Metro and we know Metro is with MS.
Zhuge said the old list wasn't accurate and the new list is definitely not accurate.
So Division 2 isn't MS and Elder Scrolls isn't MS due to it not being released for the next 5 years. There's also one more potential game that could be false.

I just added it, as in my head it was filling out a genre that was missing from that line up. A fantasy game
To temper expectations. Now we know that the list isn't completely accurate and to be easy if this "source".
And as far as meaningful... It's more meaningful to know that the list is incorrect than pure speculation.
No one is trying to distract anyone. The list provided is a long one, involving many partners. It's perfectly reasonable for someone to only know the truth for a certain title or titles, and therefore know if the list is altogether an accurate one or not. At the same time, someone releasing what specific title or titles are wrong would be providing anyone that was trying to uncover the identity of that person with a lot of good intel.
There is no conspiracy here, it's people doing their best to spread the information they feel comfortable with, while protecting themselves.
I promise that I will stop that talk, but you have to admit that there is a valid point there.
It's been a mixture of discussions to be fair. All based around the subject at hand but varied enough for nearly 40 pages.
What's up?
Fable isn't being revealed in this conference. Microsoft said they are only revealing first party games less than 18 months away from release. This E3 is the Fall 2018-Summer 2019 first party lineup exclusively.
This thread got derailed by IGN saying fake e3 news. Also you have to atleast see that there are members or insiders most likely don't want to do it out of respect for game companies, squashing console war stuff like this is not worth it.
I can see:
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider (September)
- Battlefield 5 (October)
- Starfield (November)
- Splinter Cell (December)
- Borderlands 3 (January)
- Assassin's Creed Greece (February)
- Cyberpunk 2077 (TBA)
- Anthem (TBA)
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider (September)
- Battlefield 5 (October)
- Starfield (November)
- Splinter Cell (December)
- Borderlands 3 (January)
- Assassin's Creed Greece (February)
- Cyberpunk 2077 (TBA)
- Anthem (TBA)
Assassin's Creed isn't on an annual cycle anymore. It's every two years now.
The difference is how people state this list as correct, partially incorrect, or very incorrect.
So is it wrong and one or some games of that list have a deal with another platform.
So is it wrong and one or some games of that list have no fixed deal yet.
So is it wrong and one or some games of that list just won't be shown soon / this year.
That's what I'm talking about.
See Yves decline to say that and I put it in February so that's technically not an annual release :p
He doesn't have to agree though. Vagueness by insiders have been attacked on Neogaf. Lots of people don't like vagueness and they don't have to agree with your "respect for the companies".
We get leaks year after year. Even saying "yeah 3 of those games aren't MS marketing exclusives" goes some way for people. People aren't asking to name names. We know insiders and sources can get in trouble.
Seems like some real salty people in here about their list getting debunked
Happens when people want their favorite console toys to come out on top vs the other one choice
ZhugeEX and Jez Corden (both reliable sources) have both stated that it's mostly correct but not 100% correct.
There is nothing wrong with it, and it's a positive sign for MS that they have gotten more aggressive in this area.
