Look at them including perfect dark in the list as if they’d have the balls to make another sequel after they botched the last one after essentially using it as a launch exclusive title for the 360… such a shame. Perfect dark 64 was a masterpiece.

ShittingDickNipples, 2 lata temu

Unless it got canned, they do be making another Perfect Dark

Vordus, 2 lata temu

Ultimately the problem with Perfect Dark as a franchise is that everyone who made it great went off and formed Free Radical and made the TimeSplitters games.

I knows it’s not gonna happen but since they own heretic and he eb now I would love to see a modern day reinterpretation by the guys at id

Warcraft is listed as well as world. Good reading skills there.

Imagine leaving Lost Odyssey off of this list.

(Although I suppose maybe you need more than one game to be considered a “franchise” 😢)

Vordus, 2 lata temu

I think they published it, but don’t actually own it.

brawleryukon, 2 lata temu

Microsoft at least owns the trademark on it. Not being a lawyer, I don’t know if that’s at all decoupled from “the IP” or not, but I suspect they’d be tied fairly close together.

It would also be weird if Mistwalker signed a contract giving MS ownership of Blue Dragon (which is on the list, but has multiple games from different publishers) but not Lost Odyssey. I guess maybe the solution would be to remove Blue Dragon from the list rather than adding Lost Odyssey. 🤷‍♂️

I’m voting for them to revive Soldier of Fortune!

I see your SoF and raise you a Heretic/Hexen revival

I wasn’t singularity to get rebooted and finished

TSG_Asmodeus, 2 lata temu

In the meantime, check out Amid Evil for an absolutely fantastic Heretic/Hexen like game.

I have more screenshots saved on steam in one playthrough of that game than any other game I’ve played.

Rai, 2 lata temu

My friend recommended Amogus Evil and it’s SOOOO GOOD.

It’s very faithful to Heretic and extremely well done.

w2tpmf, 2 lata temu

My vote is for Heretic/Hexen.

COD suddenly overrated to PlayStation owners.

Edgelord_Of_Tomorrow, 2 lata temu

Name a good game by a Microsoft studio from the last 5 years that isn’t by Obsidian or someone who used to work at Obsidian

OrgunDonor, 2 lata temu

Ori and the Will of the Wisps(Great)
Sunset Overdrive(Good)
Battletoads(Good, at least I enjoyed it)
Forza Horizon 4 and 5(both are good, but definitely feeling a little repetitive and overly done now for me)
Flight Simulator

That is all I got though. and technically Forza Horizon 4 is 5 years and 12 days.

brawleryukon, 2 lata temu

Sunset Overdrive(Good)

Released in 2014, so while good, doesn’t quite fit the “from the last 5 years” criteria (unless you’re specifically talking about the PC port, which just squeaks in by a month, but I’m not sure that’s quite in the spirit of the discussion).

OrgunDonor, 2 lata temu

I didnt actually realise the PC version was a year later(it was the PC release date I was looking at). Well... shit.

sheogorath, 2 lata temu

Point of Forza, driving cars around in circles will get repetitive after some point tho. I played Horizon 4 much more than 5 because 4 has a ranked system. I’m definitely going to play more Horizon 5 if they have a ranked system.

lazycouchpotato, 2 lata temu

Isn’t Ori only published by MS? Moon Studios is a private studio, IIRC.

OrgunDonor, 2 lata temu

Although Moon Studios are not owned by Microsoft, the Ori IP is.

Psychonauts 2.

3D Ultra Pinball

Come on, how can they list that and not the masterpiece that is 3D Ultra Minigolf?

Seriously though, they’re at least missing quite a bit of Sierra stuff there. Like Impressions Games city builders, or The Incredible Machine.

I remember buying a Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro joystick that came bundled with Interstate '76… Hey MS, up for a revival?

clearedtoland, 2 lata temu

I kid you not, that joystick and MS Flight Simulator 2004 got me through flight school and several ratings.

thorbot, 2 lata temu do games w Every Franchise Xbox Now Owns After Buying Activision

There was a glimpse of prototype in that trailer and I can only dream of a new version of that game

Microsoft spent 69 Billy just so they could finally own geometry wars, change my mind.

This article is absurd. Corridor made a tech demo to show what's possible with AI. They weren't suggesting that it should or shouldn't be how things are done in the gaming industry, just how it could be done. What sort of smoothbrain neanderthals take issue with a tech demo?

Chariotwheel, 2 lata temu

The title should already give you a hint. "Everybody Hates" is a good beginning to a title for a 00s sitcom, but not exactly peak journalism here.

I opened it just to see some of the photos, and my browser crashed. The photos aren’t even good, don’t even open the link.

I don’t think I realized Kotaku had gotten this bad. Yikes!

They put KOTOR 2 but they didn't try Kreia??

I’ve noticed AI tends to give everyone light blue eyes. Back when I used YouTube, I noticed people use AI to generate thumbnails and all people with brown eyes had blue eyes which confused me.

It's like looking into an alternate timeline, where a young Trent Reznor started a J-rock band instead of NIN.
