Xbox One Game List
So with the two new consoles set to launch this month (Xbox One will release Nov 22 for the US and EU, and 2014 for Japan), everyone is excited about what's coming up. So since basil now has a hub for both Xbox and Playstation, I decided to make threads for both new consoles listing their exclusive titles that have been announced so far and the release dates (the ones we know anyway). So here is the Xbox One list, each game has a link to a video of the game, the genre and the release date. I tried to use videos that are more "game" than someone talking about the game, so a lot of the videos are just the E3 trailers and can be a little on the short side. I figured seeing the game is more exciting than a video where someone tells you about it. And the point is to get people excited about the games.
Feel free to talk about what games you're excited about, but try to keep the console wars out of it. This thread should be about the awesome games and not which console is better.
Also, I know some of the games on the list aren't all that exciting, but I'm just covering everything lol.
Numbers as of now - Xbox One Exclusives: 14; Non-PS4 Launch Titles: 10 (8 exclusive, 2 multi-platform); Launch Titles PS4 will also get: 12; Total Launch Titles: 22
Note - And although I included them in the numbers, I didn't actually include any games that PS4 and Xb1 have in common on this list. It would just be too long then.

@scorpio989: I think I'm looking forward to Titanfall more than anything right now for Xbox games. The gameplay looks more fun each time I see it. Fast paced fighting where you're able to do almost parkour-like movements running off of walls, jumping up to rooftops, etc., to get around in addition to being able to take control of a mech in battle. And Quantum Break actually looks like it will be good, even though they're trying to integrate it with it's own TV show. The pausing time looking cool how there was an explosion happening and they froze time and walked in.
For non exclusives Battlefront 3 is definitely my number 1 too. I still play Battlefront 2 sometimes, so I'm really looking forward to a next gen battlefront since it skipped the ps3/360 era. If they can improve on the things 2 was lacking it might be the game I never put down this gen. Oh and can't forget Mirrors Edge 2. Never thought they'd make a second game (looks like a prequel since she's getting her tattoos in the trailer), so even without a lot of information, I'm super excited about that one. The first game was so fluid where you could run through some levels and literally never stop running. Can't wait to see how the second game turns out.
Anyway, I'm excited about a lot of the games you listed too, but I'd go on an even longer description if I talked about them all XD.

1. Project Spark
