Community Question: Predicting 7 of the 15 Xbox ExclusivesMay 23, 2013 by

It was announced on Tuesday that the Xbox One would have 15 exclusive games in the first year of it's lifecycle, 8 of which would be brand new IPs. One of those new IPs was already revealed in the form of Remedy's Quantum Break, and another appears to be Crytek's Ryse. We also saw some footage from Forza 5, which will be an exclusive for a continuing IP. While there's no way to guess what the new IPs will be specifically, we can definitely take a stab at the continuing IPs.

So I want to pose this question to the community: What are some of your predictions on the unannounced Xbox exclusives?

Time to add more folks to the family!

We know it won't be Alan Wake 2 (which totally bummed me out) since Remedy posted a video announcing it was not currently being developed.

Considering that an IP aquired through Rare has been confirmed, my guess is it'll be a Banjo-Kazooie game, as it's easily the biggest name Rare has in it's stable. On the other hand, there was news a while back about Microsoft trying to renew Killer Instinct... Could that be what they were alluding to?

There is also a rumor that Crackdown 3 might be on it's way, based on an image that appeared in the Dashboard of the reveal event.

And of course, where would such an important Microsoft even be without the presence of Halo?

Here's my guess on what continuing exclusive IP's we'll see at this years E3:

  1. Forza 5.
  2. Banjo-Koozie (Dear god, if it's true, please be a platformer).
  3. Crackdown 3.
  4. Fable 4 or Fable MMO.
  5. Dance Central 4.
  6. Halo 2 Remake.
  7. Left 4 Dead 3 (wishful thinking).

So what do you think? Leave your predictions in the comments below, I'd love to hear your thoughts/hopes/dreams. :)
