Few New Exclusives and Some Absences
Whether or not you found these aforementioned titles particularly exciting, it cannot be refuted that there were few new exclusives to back them up. With such a scarce lineup of exclusives for the rest of 2017, Microsoft could really have done with some exciting new titles to bolster the likes of Crackdown 3 and Cuphead. Ori and the Will of the Wisp got announced, but it’s not due to release until 2018 and Sea of Thieves once again got pushed back.
Top that off with the fact that the likes of Below didn’t make an appearance, as well as 343 Industries not making an announcement after teasing some form of Halo content at E3 just last month and many fans will likely come away without the justification needed to splash out $500 on an Xbox One X.
