Are these all launch games available day one or are some window launch? I think that’s the saying

What is the actual definition of a launch game? If the game has to be available when the XB1 is released then Watch dogs @22nd November must mean its no earlier than this date? Or is it simply games that come out before the end of the year?

It’s impressive. Like the others have said, is this on day one of the console being launched though or up until say christmas or something?

From Microsoft’s website: “On launch day”, then it lists the 23 games.

For the majority of people around the world suffering delayed launch to 2014, there will be significantly more than 23 titles available on their ‘launch day’.

Nice list – multiple titles I would want that are more than likely going to be PS4 release games also.
Excitement building!!

A good chunk of those will probably be out on ps3/360 prior to launch.
The list does suggest that it won’t be out until at least 22 November which is when Watch Dogs is due out in the UK. This could just be launch window list but that list looks less impressive if it’s not all day one.
It’s still lacking a must have game for launch

No appealing exclusives there for me. I’ll see what the PS4 lineup brings.

Same. Only Forza but I’ll be happily plugging away with GT6 anyway.
Much like these latter years of PS3, Sony has the far more interesting exclusives and with both next gen systems rocking similar hardware, there will be no reason to prefer one over the other when it comes to multi-platform games.

Quite a strong line up with many AAA titles and exclusives, better than Sony’s current line up I reckon.
stonyk
is there an official Sony line up then? Isn’t it going to be pretty much the same with a hand full of PS4 exclusives? Feel like i’ve missed some information from somewhere. Need to know to pre-order a game – Just need one to tie me over for a while….

Just to come back to this, the PS4 has 33 titles within its launch month. Xbox One will be roughly 22.
