I really had my heart set on the series X, but seems like 343 really want me to spend that money on a Ps5 or PC. I’m done with Xbox
I mean you can disagree. That's why it's called an opinion, right?Ahaha...AHHAHAHAHAH
Thy locked my hart to ps5. I'll give any company more than one chance but this!! This is just bad imo.
Well you can always buy a Lockhart for cheap if you want to enjoy Xbox games. I'm seriously wondering how popular Lockhart will be as a secondary gamepass machine.
I’m not sure about there being one for Xbox, but I always buy a launch PlayStation and then the slim model when it comes out. I think this time, I’ll just wait for the slim.Ill get the XsX mid get upgrade
I am very disappointed as a fan of the brand. Last straw idk but very underwhelmed. I didnt say wow once. I plan on playing these games on my pc anyway but i was really excited to see a competitive microsoft again today. Simply put that didnt happen. Sony just looked like the superior company in every way. Not a single game shown today looked like it couldnt be accomplished on current gen hardware. Not one looked better than ratchet and clank. Halo looked like halo again aesthetically but it truly looks like a game that doesn’t utilize next gen capability. Imo the show was a disaster.Lets cut to chase - Microsoft exclusive support this generation has been subpar (to say the least) by most objective metrics. One could make the case it was just simply unacceptable for a console manufacturer. The big franchises like Halo and Gears had lukewarm reception from the critics and failed to grab gamers across the board (even dedicated hardcore fans). Moreover the drought between big games has been significant which compounds the pain when the big games eventually arrive and don't live to the hype. I can't even remember the last time a MS AAA exclusive was nominated for Game of the Year. I can't even remember when MS announced a new AAA IP from a Microsoft owned studio in the last 10 years. Phil and company, in my honest opinion, has been stringing people along with PR, in bad faith, failing to deliver E3 after E3..... with lines like this: "I'm even more excited for what we didn't show" and all the B.S we've discussed to death.
But we know gamers and specially hardcore fans of the brand can be extremely patient and put up with a lot of BS if you can at least make a case that a brighter future is ahead. That brighter future was supposed to be shown today - no excuses, no more wait, no more B.S. As the feedback comes in, the show is getting trashed across the board. The flagship franchise for MS has literally become an instant internet meme after today's showing and there was so much riding with that game (if just to alleviate the concerns of the hardcore Xbox gamer that drops $400-$500 on a console day 1).
Outside of Halo Infinite you'll be waiting for Fable, Hellblade II and Avowed in 2022 - and we don't even know how those games will turn out when it comes to quality (considering the studios involved and the genre's). What does the Xbox Series X launch line up even look like?
I want to know where this leaves you personally regarding a potential purchase of the Xbox Series X.
Was this the last straw for you? Will you wait for 2022 to make a purchase? Will you still buy the hardware day one?
C'mon, Sony made many big announcements and shown gameplay of several AAA next gen games. They even shown the console. I'd give them an 8, or minimum if you personally don't like several of their big announcements, at least a 7.I mean
6/10 Microsoft's show
6/10 Sony's show
Microsoft has a Game Pass = Microsoft wins
MS said that during the first two years the games from the MS studios would be crossgen. So if the console is released around mid November, the first SX only games would be more likely December 2022 or more probably 2023, specially if they have some delay, covid, etc.Series X only games coming 2022 most probably. So that's the time to upgrade
The cord will be cut from the hardware side in a couple of years based on today's showing. Hardly any gameplay, their flagship title looked woeful and yet again they haven't found their niche or identity. This show was meant to build hype and it's done the opposite. If MS massively undercut the PS5 then initial sales could be good, but PS5 is 10TF for a reason - To keep the price reasonable.
People like cheap shit.Game pass is bad for the industry as a whole, i still dont understand why people are drinking this kool aid. Ill take quality over quantity any day.
the games on it are really good quality tho.Game pass is bad for the industry as a whole, i still dont understand why people are drinking this kool aid. Ill take quality over quantity any day.
