Microsoft has revealed a batch of new software titles for the Xbox 360 during its keynote session at the Tokyo Game Show today, naming the Halo project recently revealed by Bungie.
Halo 3 Recon is dated for autumn 2009, and sees the return of Microsoft's number one franchise to the Xbox 360 system with new single and multiplayer content.
The latest big name franchise to make the leap to Microsoft's console is Tekken 6 from Namco Bandai, also due next autumn.
Tekken follows Final Fantasy as a franchise previously associated with Sony's PlayStation brand and highlights the recent trend for Japanese developers to go multiformat with releases.
A sequel to the Q Entertainment title Ninety Nine Nights is also due for the system, along with a handful of new Xbox Live titles including Metal Slug 7 and King of Fighters 98 Ultimate Match from SNK Playmore.
Alvios Games discusses the titles that inspired Vellum, including Halo 3: ODST, Mass Effect 3, Hades, and Slay the Spire.
With its smooth jazz and iconic New Mombasa streets, we need Xbox's next Halo game to return to the remarkable world of Halo 3: ODST.
Gearshift Media has shared a demo of their Halo 3: ODST Fan Remake in Unreal Engine 5 that everyone can download.
Ah yes, Tekken 6 Bloodline, another game MS bribed for.
Halo 3 Recon (which will be awesomee) great, that's a great software push. But why do they try to push their console with multiplatform games like Fall Out 3, Tekken 6, Call of Duty, Assasains Creed when everyone knows.........but I can get that on any other console...PC or even PS3.
obviously because they don't have the first party base like Killzone 2, God of War etc., that's why I think it's really important for Microsoft if they really want to be a big player in the long term for them to invest in good reliable AAA studios instead of throwing millions at downloadable content when for the same ammount of money Sony is producing Wipeout HD and SOCOM, two whole games.
just my thoughts.
Tekken 6 lead new 360 software push haha
Tekken is outdated
i would call it a couple of software titles and even that is stretching.
the only thing you announced was an exapansion for halo, and a multiplatform game thats nothing in terms of a push, just one game that is multiplatform really.
Poor Namco Bandai,they must be going broke like microsoft
