Matt might have knowledge of the hardware, but doesnt know Jack about MS lineup outside of the obvious (new Forza/Halo) the fact that there is silence unsettles them, because they have no clue.

Yeah Matt is a dev. Not a true insider on what MS is doing. No reason for devs, 1st or 3rd party, to get hold of leaks or inside intel regarding MSs plans. He's speaking towards recent history as evidence.
I think MS has already upped their investment. The question is whether or not we find this out this E3 or whether it'll be a year or two before these games can be shown off. I really think what's most important is Crackdown, State of Decay and Sea of Thieves are good. If MS can't turn it around in terms of running studios and projects, it won't matter how much they invest in new games.

I thought this was an interesting vid.It kinda reminds me of the story with Gears and how Epic's team had to fight with MS to keep the chainsaw bayonet in. Can you imagine..Gears without the chainsaw?

And then a "free" Bungie made Destiny.....yeahhhhhhh. They rushed that baby out the door.
I always thought HALO: Combat Evolved was awkward. Everyone called it HALO anyway.
Lionhead was a mixed bag. They could make quality games, but they seemed to burn through money at the end.
I agree that Microsoft should give developers more freedom over what should be made. I'd rather have creative control remain with the creators.
But as for SONY....they have shut down some studios. Their only first party racer for the PS4 so far, Driveclub, was meh and late and lied about rain being in the game. Rain was released much later after its launch and now the studio is no more. They canceled and then rushed out The Last Guardian with PS3 graphics, framerate issues, and frustrations with the AI. Game sales were disappointing in the end. They released the horrid No Man's Sky knowing full well how many lies were told and how bad it was. Pushed it right out the door. Knack was pretty lame. Gran Turismo Sport looks pretty bland and doesn't keep up with competition. The developer of Sunset Overdrive, Insomniac Games, said they left SONY exclusivity because SONY wouldn't let them own their own properties.
I thought the rose colored glasses assessment of their studios was amusing. SONY has different problems.

They didn't cancel TLG, they didn't make No Man's Sky, and Insomniac couldn't have been too upset as they are on their 2nd PS4 exclusive.
Didn't a good while back Phil or some from the house of X say that rate was working in two projects, one being SoT
Some people say it could have been a slip up. But yeah there might be a second team at Rare making something else.
I think Studio Gobo's team is making Banjo personally. Could be wrong.
Yes. They should hold X17 in september. With the release of Scorpio they actually have a lot of news to get gamers excited. A private media event after E3 would be good way to grab the attention and show more footage of first and third party games running on the new hardware.

I love the formatting on this forum. Copy/Paste and it looks like I put effort into it, lol.
Considering they specifically said there would be more info on MR/VR at E3 during their BUILD conference, I'd take what you read with a grain of salt, tbh...
And they didn't mean the PC show by any chance?
I can understand if they want to spend some time on it but not this year. Not when it isn't even really coming to Xbox until next year.
They might have, but I find it unlikely. If Scorpio will have VR/MR capability, I can't see them not showing it. I personally really hope so.
The thing with those demonstrations is that it's never really all that special. Sony's PSX show two years ago with VR really showed how bad and cringy it can be.
It's just odd how some articles claim VR won't be there but MR is also VR. Isn't it?

Don’t expect Xbox VR to be at E3 this year, or in stores this holiday.
