50: Been Through The Desert On Xbox With No Games

Microsoft delayed Crackdown 3 to next year, and the publisher doesn't have a lot of other releases to fill in the gaps for its upcoming holiday season. On this week's episode of the GamesBeat Decides podcast, managing editor Jason Wilson, reviews editor Mike Minotti, and I (PC gaming editor Jeffrey Grubb) try to figure out what the hell Microsoft is doing.

The Xbox One X is launching November 7 for $500, and Microsoft is focusing on what the upgraded console will do for your current library. The company doesn't have a choice when it comes to that pitch because it is only publishing 4 games in all of 2017. Those include Halo Wars 2, Forza Motorsport 7, Super Lucky's Tale, and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds for Xbox One. We explain some of the reasons why Microsoft has retreated from making its own games, and we talk about why it is probably still important to have a strong first-party lineup.

Additionally, we talk about the news and how Sonic the Hedgehog was never good regardless of Minotti's confusion.

Games discussed:

Sonic Mania
Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft
Neverwinter
