Looks impressive but I'll buy it on PC in a year. Same goes for Sunset Overdrive.
Edit: I'll make the same argument I've always made and have been correct on in the past. At some point, an exclusive isn't going to sell consoles to people. A year or so is probably the point when that statement becomes true. Also, I'd argue that Microsoft has everything to gain from releasing these games as Windows exclusives. It promotes PC gaming on Windows rather than Linux, it gives people a reason to move to Windows 10 as well if they were to make it a Windows 10 exclusive.
It also gives Microsoft a better image to PC gamers and arguably makes them more willing to support their console endeavors.

People said the same thing about the original Halo 3 release.

While I agree with you that they really would get a lot from doing this, I don't see it happening anytime in the near future

To be fair, that released during Vista's premiere and a lot of people will argue "why get Windows 10 when I have 7?" Just like they did with XP and 7. Then there's the case to be made with Project Spark, Dead Rising 3, Titanfall (running off XBL/Azure servers) and Ryse.
It will most likely happen with Sunset, Quantum Break since it's Remedy and remember Alan Wake and probably the Halo collection along with D4 (the game made by the Deadly Premonition guys since it's not selling on Xbox One) and the rumored Gears of War collection (gives Epic a chance to show off their amazing tech). There's certainly enough of a demand from people who simply aren't willing to buy consoles under any circumstance and plenty of money to be made.
Oooh man! Machinima on consoles is going to get a jump in quality with how they make the maps. This almost made me want to buy a xbox one. Almost.
If only, If only, I could get Halo on PC.
The sky and the water would be filled with my geometry!

I think they've used the same assets over the years.. just given them a higher polycount.

Literally at no point in time was Titanfall ever meant to be an Xbone exclusive.
Also Epic doesn't own Gears of War anymore

Yeah right just like Halo 3 that's been supposedly coming for PC for years now, right? Bungie/343 never cared about PC. Halo 1 started out as a mac exclusive (just like all other Bungie games back then) and later as an xbox exclusive which was later ported to PC by Gearbox. Halo 2 was ported by Microsoft as a Vista exclusive for the GFWL to see how successful GFWL would be on the PC. Without Halo, not many people would buy an xbox, in fact xbox wouldn't even be here were it not for Halo 1 back then. The only way you will play a Halo game apart from the first two on the PC is going to be via emulators in 10 years time.

Aw yish, another FC:IP bro. Goddamn that multiplayer was so much fun.
This new forge is amazing, it reminds me a little bit of BF2:sandbox
That lack of water reflection makes the islands look like they are floating.
They removed the beeping from the lobby countdown D:
i hate that they changed the voice that says "slayer" and "game over" etc :(

Same guy as before, they just reused his lines from Halo 4, including the music and that's only for H2A's Multiplayer, i hope so anyway.
Personally, i think the announcer is a bit weaker than his prevous counter parts. Maybe it's the fact that he says more than just the basics, or the music... or both.

I'm just saying there's an image at Microsoft HQ forming that Windows gaming has value as well. It's a Microsoft exclusive and that's what counts.
