I don't mind saying that on 360, I think we had a gap. 'But that lineup from first party also looks strong. 'Rolling into the next holiday, we haven't announced everything that's coming yet,' he said. Beyond that, there's Capy Games' Below, Swery's D4 and things Spencer said he couldn't talk about yet. On the first-party front, he pointed to the console port of Halo: Spartan Assault, Max: The Curse of Brotherhood, Kinect Sports Rivals and Project Spark as first-party Xbox One highlights for the first half of next year. 'I think back to the Xbox 360 launch, I don't think we really had those mega franchises that were landing in winter to spring that we're seeing out of third parties in that same timeframe for Xbox One,' Spencer said. Those titles will help alleviate a historically slower period for new game consoles, he said. Spencer said he was also factoring in third-party Xbox One titles, like Respawn Entertainment's Titanfall, Ubisoft's Watch Dogs and Bungie's Destiny, into the slate of games planned for 2014. The depth of the portfolio next year is pretty incredible.' 'I was in Europe last week visiting Lionhead, I was at Rare, PressPlay up in Copenhagen talking about and playing things that are going to come out in the next year, maybe a little later. 'I'm spending all of my time now playing games that are 2014 titles,' Spencer said in an interview. Microsoft Studios corporate vice president Phil Spencer tells Polygon that he hopes to avoid any 'gaps' in bringing fresh games to the next-gen console and will likely make announcements about new titles in the coming weeks and months. Like its chief console competitor, Microsoft is aiming to bring a steady stream of games to its nascent platform in an effort to keep new Xbox One owners happy. When Microsoft's new Xbox One debuts in North America later this week, it will be accompanied by more than 20 launch titles, including Dead Rising 3, Forza Motorsport 5, Ryse: Son of Rome and more first- and third-party games.
