Official Xbox Thread - Price drop | Xbox Series X now $399

[MajinZuub]

launch stuff sells out regardless of games to be honest.

Yup, I got the One close to launch and out of the 4 games I got only one was a console exclusive (Dead Rising 3)


Getting back into Outer Worlds and having a lot more fun with it. Kind of stopped playing it quickly when it first came out for I don't know what reason.

I knew once they said ray-tracing would be a later patch and that the build we saw was presumably less than 3 months old that they were putting all their effort in just being able to release a content-complete game in November, polish be damned.

They should've did this whenever they were prepping the July show so they could avoid the whole "first Xbox to launch with a Halo since the original" thing, but I'm glad they can take the extra time to release the game the way it should be.

This was for the best. Having people crunch while at home, during a pandemic, all to appease a set of gamers that will shade them constantly if anything is missing, and bad faith Sony fanboys that are waiting to signal boost any and all criticism, was not optimal.

I say delay this thing a whole year, and make sure the game is ready to shine

I think it will be a full year since all they put was 2021. I actually think they were intending to delay it for a while. That showcase and the criticism it for probably just made it easier to do.

Halo Infinite delayed until 2021

Happy it's being delayed tbh...now I can give more time to Cyberpunk and Destiny

Just makes me wish they would've developed the game as a next-gen only release.

I wish they would drop Xbox One support. Or atleast just make it for the Xbox One X. But the backlash will be too severe

We will probably see a Beta now.

 

[Gordonson]

That game's been in development for so long that it doesn't make sense to arbitrarily cut the tie to the Xbox One at this point, it won't magically make Infinite a game built for the Series S/X.

I think the rest of their upcoming first party games except for Turn 10's next Forza are built on the Series S/X specs and will release after their promised window of Xbox One support anyway.

EDIT: I don't wanna misspeak; I don't know that Turn 10's Forza isn't built on the next-gen devkit. They already said 2021 so I'm just assuming that game will get an Xbox One version as well, so it can't be made purely with SSD in mind.

 

[swendro]

But It's going to be a live service game, so they'll likely drop last-gen support at some point.

Had a profound effect on me. Have never loved a game like I loved H3 and will never get that close again.

Infinite got delayed so there is still time for them to remove sprint

Keep hope alive

 

[RustyShackleford]

At least now there can be a proper beta.

Destiny?!?!

Yikes!

Cyberpunk definitely is a game I'm looking forward to.

Have you ever played TW3?

If you look at the gameplay they revealed for the campaign it looks like sprint only works when your shield is completely full.

Also nobody knows what will happen happen with multiplayer it could differ from campaign and not have sprint.

I could care less though I'll adapt just as I did with Halo 5. Hated it at first but the more I played it the more I began to like it.

I've just been rocking with Halo 2/3 on MCC the past few months though and man I love Halo 3 but I still get heated when I'm stuck with crap team mates or my blood boils when I get split screeners or AFK players.

Also I still hate midship map to this day.

That is all.

 

[antidope]

Midship sucks idc what anyone says.

 

[mr j 858]

Oh but Cyberpunk 2077 and Gamepass will kind of make up for Halo's Infinite's delay for the XSX and XSS launch:

 

[RustyShackleford]

You really suck at this console warrior thing

Dudes in here like 13 years old.

Where you guys getting your controllers from?

 

[blackboyfly]

Not sure if it's been posted here yet, but the Game Pass Ultimate beta for mobile is up. I just tried it and it works fine. Not sure if I'd play any multiplayer games on it just yet, but if you're looking for some quick gaming when away from home , it's awesome.

I really might start carrying a controller with me on the go
