I can't imagine so. It must have been started before Obsidian joined Microsoft, and I can't imagine Obsidian would have thrown AAA-level money at a project like that, I don't think they could have afforded to do that even if they wanted to.

Disappointing if true. Hoping for at least one more big AAA game to launch with Scarlett
I wouldn't worry about player input. That's why they hired a "Director of Player Voice" and also recently revamped/launched the Halo Support site.
Obviously. :D
I'm just saying that they are making moves in that regard.
Damn you future person, you've dashed our hopes with your time travelling ways.
So where are the big games then? Are they taking longer than expected? Or just being saved for the Scarlett reveal or E3 2020?
So it's looking like no JP games to announce? no ports or anything.. my hope is on all time low.
Game Pass needs a diverse catalogue of games. MS Flight Sim might've been just that necessary start of games that are dedicated to a niche fanbase but still can crank up those Game Pass numbers.
This article pretty much sums it up:
Speaking off, I'd love to see a game like Motorcross Madness make its return. A bike mode in FH5 would be also pretty dope but I'm not sure what direction Turn10 and Playground will take for the inevitable sequel. Phantom Dust would be another game that could get a pretty big audience at launch thanks to XGP.

Games Pass already has a widely diverse game catalogue thanks to all the 3rd Party deals MS has been making. All they honestly need to do to keep it up is to keep making those deals, with GamePass release dates getting closer and closer to launch days.
lol
I just keep the expectation low here (:
Never said it didn't have diversity in its catalogue, was talking about future additions to the service ;)
So far they've pretty much been getting a really good amount of different looking/playing games from 3rd party devs both indie and from the bigger publishers like Namco and Capcom.
I guess I'm dragging my lazy ass outta bed at 5:30... or not sleeping.
I'm gonna have to disagree here. I liked Gears 5 a lot but it seems to not be having perfect staying power and hardcore fans have some complaints about the MP. Perhaps it's best to hold off on 6 a bit and push 5.
I think The Outer Worlds 2 would benefit from being shown but the new Obsidian game should have the same effect.
I'm stuck in lecture for the first hour. Gonna liveblog under the table and then catch up with the individual aspects after. I hope they save InXile, Obsidian and any acquisitions for the latter half. I wanna be there when they are shown.
+1 for motorcross madness! Or a motorbike game like forza horizon. Open world. Different bikes for different events (dirt bikes, street bikes, touring, trials...etc)
I don't think so. After outer worlds I didn't expect another game from them till late 2021. If they have something ready for launch of Scarlett even if it's smaller than I think that's great.
I'll never ever understand the NEED for AAA games, MS's approach is pretty cool. Hope that idea Sawyer threw around is still happening.
I'm not saying it needs to be from Obsidian. I'm just saying I'd like one more big AAA game to launch with Scarlett in addition to Halo.
What could the redacted game/studio be...
Let me dream dammit
Halo Infinite gameplay panel
Insert your speculation / wish :D I would post mine but people would take it for granted then again or insult me lol.
So show me your ideas.
Let me dream dammit
People need big games to justify their console purchase. Now with MS's new approach where you no longer have to buy their console or their games, less emphasis has been placed on system sellers. For now.

So show me your ideas.
Aoe4 and new AOE studio
he was director on fallout new vegas too.
I agree with this, especially without scarlett. The next year could be awesome if they play their cards well since the amount of games coming
according to Rand, it's a survival rpg
The other obsidian big game is the one led by chris parker, I everything we got on discord was right. It looked like the kind of game you wont reveal before the announce of the new console
gears dlc
Insert your speculation / wish :D I would post mine but people would take it for granted then again or insult me lol.
So show me your ideas.
A big game doesn't necessarily needs to be something like Halo Infinite with a 600 person dev team you know
Also, "system sellers" are different for each person, i feel that variety is much more important to get someone into your ecossystem, which is why MS's approach is quite nice for me. Hell, the big 3 are quite good at it in the moment
Welcoming the new studio acquisition and talking about their game that was shown at the event.
Insert your speculation / wish :D I would post mine but people would take it for granted then again or insult me lol.
So show me your ideas.
Well, you're already bought in, so it doesn't matter what a system seller is to you.
But for Joe Shmoe, the average PS4 owner, he'll need something with a HUGE marketing campaign to get him to buy in to Xbox's ecosystem.
Or for that ecosystem to be extremely cheap.
The Good Life by White Owls :)
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot and Project Resistance will also be there.

We can beat around the bush all day but in the end it's the Mario's, the Halo's, and the Uncharted's that sell consoles. And the general public wants more of those.
Could that "redacted" mean something about Scarlett? I don't know... Something like its official name, for example?
