The Car Pool - Listener Questions

Garret Bland: With E3 coming up, which Microsoft-owned studio do you want to see announce a new game/ip?

Famous Seamus: What kinds of games does Microsoft need to show to blow everyone's mind away?

Chris Sea of Thieves Johnston: How do you feel when listening to journalists on podcasts say that it’s been forever (months or years) since they turned on their home Xbox Ones? What can Microsoft do in the next generation to avoid this very common sentiment?

Antonio Guillen:

Recent news suggests that PS5 isn’t releasing this fiscal year (before April 2020) With Xbox most likely releasing first when do you expect the launch? I’m assuming E3 announcement and fall release.

I would love to hear some talk about May GamePass lineup and some predictions for heavy hitters in June. With the release of TombRaider and WarGroove so soon after release it doesn’t look like any caliber of game is off the table. What are the chances we see MK11 in 2 months

Cruise Control - Topic of the Show

How likely is it that Games With Gold will be devalued in favor of Game Pass?

Likely but this isn’t a tragic event or unexpected. Game Pass is clearly the future of Xbox online.  -L
