102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Quote A report from investor that held a meeting with MS last year: "Microsoft believes that its new studios will help it to achieve a primary goal, the delivery of one AAA game per quarterin order to drive Xbox Game Pass. With that said, it does not want to rush its new studios into delivering games before they are fully baked, and believes that any acquisition takes time to get its legs. Its ideal acquisition targets have proven content and strong development teams." Source: ZhugeEX starting with CuckedDownz 3? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. House 3,371 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 MicroDick can't even produce a yearly AAA that isn't Forza. Worst first party ever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,608 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I'm not sure why Forza supposedly doesn't count . What AAA does ps4 have this year ? Days gone ? And switch ? Still thinking . They only had one AAA last year Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Too me they really don't. My favorite 1st party games are Forza and Gears. They will always be there. MS bought like 10 studios anyway Yours are whatever Nintendo gives you that year. Thing is , you have no games to play between those 1st party games. I do . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because they have a service to drive, you can't even line up point A to B when it's in the god damn OP telling you exactly what the point is... the delivery of one AAA game per quarterin order to drive Xbox Game Pass Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,554 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Should be possible with the amount of teams they've acquired, especially if some of them will focus on smaller titles. Defs won't line up that way timing wise as things get delayed and different projects come along differently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As such the service provider needs to fill that void themselves so people always have something new to play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
