Xbox - what needs to change?

[Craig of War]

you get what i'm saying, it's enough leaning on forza. it's a niche racing franchise that no one at large cares about. Get Playground (and turn 10, what the hell) to work on Fable for fuck's sake and show something worth a shit that core gamers might actually care about.

No more racing games for Xbox, atleast for the next decade. You have enough already.

Forza Horizon is no longer a niche Franchise it is played by millions
It is the biggest racing game franchise around
Forza Horizon 4 has over 30 million players wile Forza Horizon 5 is already at over 20 million hardly niche

Niche would be like under 10,000 players lol

"it's a niche racing franchise that no one at large cares about"

Sure 30 plus million players and 20 plus million players but no one cares

Let hear more of your shit takes it cool here you won't get banned for having a take so let me heard em all wile i laugh my ass off lol

it's niche no matter what the numbers say. You act like im saying something unfathomable but everyone knows no one gives a shit about racing games.

Racing games are not real games.

racing games are substandard games and have been considered as such for decades, just because xbox can't produce anything else doesn't mean we'll change our opinion on them.

People want real, single player, story driven, mature games not based around changing spark plugs and the oil pan. We want real games and MS refuses to deliver in favour of casual racing game tire-change bullshit.

it's enough. Honestly damn forza to hell. If another one is never made no one will miss it. Worst franchise in gaming IMO, because it constantly holds Xbox back from doing anything else.

FUCK FORZA.

I don't like Forza and I'm not an xbox guy, but you make really bold claims here, so I have to ask.
Source?

the source is every console you've ever bought that gave you a racing game for free.

Sorry, but its a fact. Racing games mean nothing to 99% of consumers. they're a nice tech demo but that's about where it ends.

they're also extremely cheap and easy to make, and require almost zero resources. That's why Xbox puts out so many.

Minecaft is also Niche with it 200 Million players and GTA5 also niche with it 100 million players right

By people you mean you cause the most popular games are multiplayer games that is a fact and cannot be disputed

Racing games are popular they are not as popular as FPS multiplayer or Minecraft but they are still popular
Games like Gran Turismo & Forza & F1 are played by millions

People want all different types of games there is no wrong in that
If all people want are single player, story driven, mature games as you put it
How is Minecraft the best selling game of all time?

You can Fuck Forza all you want make no difference to me

Relax dude. If you don't like Forza that's fine... no need to bring it to that emotional level.

Of course you can voice your opinion, just try to take a moment before you hit enter.

yep, forza is absolute trash, might even be the worst franchise in gaming. Between 5 horizon's and 7 motorsports we've all had enough. I'd rather play anything else.

Pulling stuff out the ass & a weird hate boner for Forza that is the source lol

We can leave this topic there. It's played out.

Thank you both for the contribution to the thread <3

 

[Lord Mittens]

I've been impressed with the contribution of the thread. Some really good discussion going on.

 

[Bodycount611]

and i bet you all xbox fans would applause and cheer when i made the "no forza ever again mandate" announcement. guaranteed.

I feel the same way about Persona that you feel about Forza we can be buddys

 

[Bodycount611]

No, Because Persona is a real single player game for core gamers, and Forza is an annual casual racer on par with madden, and it's being used to prop up a failed console and console manufacturer who refuses to invest in real games or produce anything else, especially games that might actually cost money to make.

Fuck Forza.

Straight to the depths of hell.

i'd honestly buy an xbox right now if Phil Spencer could promise me he'd never greenlight another forza game again. that's my #1 requirement.

worst franchise ever in gaming bar none.

Phil after seeing what you said

 

[Bodycount611]

Phil after seeing what you said

his loss, because everyone agrees with me. Forza's all fine and good if it was the 10th game in the lineup but honestly its being used as the first for like 10 years now, and its enough. nobody cares. if you keep pushing forza for the 13th time as a killer app you'll be rightfully laughed out of the building. until xbox can prove it has something else it will will never be less than a laughing stock.

FUCK.

FORZA.

I repeat.

FUCK FORZA

 

[mansoor1980]

simple

they just need to launch a much more powerful console with cutting edge tech , especially since funding it wont be an issue.

Ha Ha I do agree with you that Xbox need more single player games But i like Forza ever since day 1
So with you saying nobody cares is false cause i care about Forza
It is the pinnacle of racing franchise

Also Starfield is coming so is Redfall

as Jon Snow would say winter is coming
