As a bonus, he also had positive things to say about Nintendo’s Switch presentation, and in particular about Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
@matheus03870169 Mario looked new/fresh. Zelda should be great. Hybrid console, will be fun to see what new game ideas come from that.

Crackdown 3 will release this year, and should come earlier than the Holiday season.
Phantom Dust is also slated for 2017. Both games are coming both to Xbox One and Windows 10.
