@Rekkapryde and that other cat were right on the money with Phil's 
Yea outside of Fable this was their final last chance.

Doesn’t halo infinite have a nearly blank check budget they were bragging about? Why can’t I get more than 6 enemies on the screen at the same time?

Isn't it the most expensive game of all time?
That’s what I thought I heard.
The question is do you want 4 filet mignons a year or 400 cases of Nathan’s hotdogs?

Cross gen is going to hold back the Series X if this what Infinite looks and plays like
I wanted to be hyped for it so I can have a reason to buy the Series X this fall
This ain't it
XBOX won. Halo infinite is about speed and playability in multiplayer. With Ninja spearheading the movement.Xbox will have the largest active playerbase in console history. Every AAA title free, including games like Dragon Quest.
i thought it was supposed to have more "flops"

that's why I just retired from the stannin. Dudes don't wanna be saved so fukk it. I'm gonna enjoy these jokes, hit the
, drop facts, and keep it movin'. Don't think he the conference was "bad" either but Halo has no business being that
looking. That shyt is embarassing.
NZA
LOL
that thing looks like that delgo movie
I feel like Microsoft tried to outsmart itself despite all the money they have for the barest minimum market research.
What huge AAA open-world shooter has succeeded in the last few years? Honestly? Doesn't matter if it's made by great dev teams, experienced as hell in what they were doing. Dude, if id can't make a compelling open-world shooter work, with their goddamned shooting mechanics and the help of the team that made Mad Max... what did this team think they were going to add to the formula? Nostalgia from Halo 1? Yay Warthog?
Because that literally looks like what all of this game was hinging on - people having nostalgia for OG Halo, from the box art to the gameplay level we've seen... this cannot be it. This simply can't be their launch philosophy here.
The industry has proven, quite handily, that the era of the 'open world just because' is fukking over. Everything AAA that has been great the last few years has either been a tightly-designed experience that, if not semi-linear, at least kept the player focus to a certain area at a time... or, it was an open-world that did not rely on first-person shooting mechanics.
Why? Because trying to design an open-world to account for long-distance engagement is a functional waste of resources. Either the world has to be stunted and look terrible to account for long-range sniping and the necessity of prioritizing draw distance rendering over damn near anything else... or they stretch their budget thin trying to give a breadth of content without a hint of depth.
The age of the open-world is wrapping up, at least in the way we knew of it. Sony might manage to pull off some interesting stuff, but that's literally just by leveraging the SSD and actually designing a bunch of smaller areas independently, but using the decreased/lack-of load times to basically stitch what would have been a few separate areas together without requiring a zone. But running three miles in first person carrying an AR just to spend a few minutes mowing down dudes... there's a reason that flops. Because late-game, when you've gotten strong enough, that few minutes decreases to <2min, and then you're playing a walking simulator.
Xbox gonna have to depend heavily on Oblivion and them to save this in a couple years, game-wise. If they aren't ready to drop Avowed around when FF7R2 comes out, then... bruh.
They were dumb as hell making the Series S anymore. If you're going to go full-Netflix with your games, then go all-in on an upfront charge for the hardware and hell, give away 3 months of gamepass free with the purchase. Go heavy with the first year of game launches being on gamepass, and then push your first big exclusive AAA game to 4 months post-release. People will renew the gamepass sub and many won't cancel it even if they stop playing the console, and you don't have to make your devs develop a game for the S with the possibility to upscale it on the X. It's a fukking idiotic business model.

Kena is a cross gen game yet it looks better than Infinite
A lot better
Idk wtf happened w/ Infinite
MS could still be fine in the end they just need to do a better job at manipulating hype
