They're both selling way better than I expected. 3.9 million Xbones sold in 5 weeks (360 s old 1.5 in its first 5 weeks). Maybe crossgen games won't hang around as long as many people anticipated,

I dunno, Wii U despite abysmal marketing sold 3 million fairly quickly when it arguably had no right to and most consoles have slowed down to a halt after the launch. Most aren't gonna care too much about the new consoles until next holiday season imo. I know I'm not, I'm mostly interested in the remaining 360 stuff right now (Soul Suspect )
Microsoft announced they bought the gears of War franchise from epic. Black Tusk is taking over development as well.
Sounds like Black Tusk is a Multi team developer as well. In an interview with Major Nelson the guy at Black Tusk didn't want to say what the studio was working on other than gears. The studio who shared space got shut down and it was said that Black Tusk had scooped up most of those people.
Seems like Epic is getting out of the development game other than iOS.

Insider in GAF is dropping bombs about Microsoft's plans.
Forza Horizon: "Fall 2014, probably September. Super sexy weather system and... tons of co-op/social stuff. 1080P and open-world, so you can road trip with your bros." UPDATE: Weather system powered by "the cloud"
White Xbone incoming. UPDATE: In October with "fancy donkey controller"
NEW: Limited 1 TB box in November
Why all the leaks? Scared you might get caught? "I am incapable of fear. Plus, this is such exciting stuff, and me talking about it ahead of time isn't going to hurt anything, truthfully. We're all chomping at the bit for it to come out. This is not bad. "
Halo Anniversary 2 will be 1080p, iffy on the 60fps, maybe not.
Quantum Break is Holiday 2014
Multiplayer confirmed for HA2, same devs as Halo Anniversary.
Sunset Overdrive is Fall 2014. UPDATE: October 2014
Is not Phil Spencer
Black Tusk cancelled project was called "Shangheist." May have involved stealing stuff from the Chinese (though I think that may have been a reference to the name and maybe not the gameplay? Not sure...)
Fable Legends is Summer 2015
Halo 2 Anniversary includes beta for Halo 5
Gears of War will probably need a 2.5 year dev time.
First Titanfall DLC is 45 days from release, then another one 120 days from release.
No Crackdown 3 news this year most likely, since it's a 2016 title.
A list w/dates of the rest of the Tier 2 and Tier 3 countries that Xbone will release in this year. UPDATE: Late April in Scandinavian countries
No info/idea on what Rare's up to, sadly.
$399 XB1 this year? "Maybe one without an Optical Disc Drive."
NEW: Games with Gold on Xbox One starting April. "Sooner rather than later"
PlayStation Now being crap I wouldn't trade in a last gen console for anything.
The Betas barley even started and not that many details have been released? Why do think it's crud?
Crud is the wrong word. The service and whatever the Microsoft one would be (Rio) could be the best thing ever but the internet suks and ISPs are too crappy. .
WAT!

Sometimes I wonder what Microsoft PR execs are thinking? They shot themselves in the foot during 2013 with the DRM / always online talk, and putting the "entertainment center" notion above games............now this $100 off for trading in a PS3? It just makes them look desperate and greedy.
Wait a game I can get on my 360 is gonna be on Xbox One! Should I be sarcastic about being excited in general or about how I'll obviously spend 500 dollars for a lamer PC? You decide! It can be a choose your own adventure post!

Maybe you should consider an extra and not a system seller like it is? I don't see how an upgraded version is bad if you already have a next gen system and it's still on 360 if you don't. This is insulting the One for the sake of it, not because there is a reason to.
