Which console has the better theoretical 2021 game duo

Halo: Infinite because of the 343 redemption arc, and Starfield because of the intrigue of a new franchise.
I'd be very, very surprised if GoW2 hits 2021. Just seems like the sort of early tease that inevitably jumps a year.
Now Horizon 2 + FF XVI - that seems like a more likely duo.

As someone who enjoyed Horizon and God of War but didn't think either were great games, I think the sequels could easily improve on my issues with their first attempts.
I have less faith in 343i and recent Bethesda.
Is Hellblade 2 expected in 2021? Because I'm more interested in that than Infinite.
Also, PS5's real 2021 heavy hitters are Ratchet and FF16 :)

For my tastes, it's Halo Infinite plus Starfield. But that's mostly because Bethesda games have always captivated me unlike a lot of games.

It's recent but why I put theoretical, who know's how true it is.
I'm more hyped for Infinite than anything else, because I've always wanted a Halo game with that classic Halo setting and an open-ended structure, but GoW Ragnarok + Horizon is definitely an enticing combo that I will absolutely play at some point.
I don't like either of them, honestly. The concept of "Skyrim, but with guns" has never appealed to me in the slightest, and 343's take on Halo lost me two and a half games ago.
And as for Sony's side...eh. The original Horizon bored me so much I gave up about 8 or 9 hours in and never went back, and I really don't need more Dadventures with Kratos.

We don't know anything about Starfield and GoW. We've only seen a trailer of Horizon, and Halo is being reworked. So, who knows?
Based on recent output alone, I have much more faith in SMS + Guerrilla than I do 343 and BGS.
That being said, Starfield is intriguing as all hell provided it's not just diet Star Citizen.

I have no confidence in Starfield releasing next year (if it even ends up an exclusive TBH, I stand by if it's releasing next year it may be a multiplatform title) and Halo Infinite has mostly just made me more and more concerned with what I learn about the game and I don't have a whole lot of faith in 343 to get it right after the past decade of general attempts to make Halo work properly again (decent quality, but lots of missteps and struggles to get Halo 5 to a good place for example).
We have to say GOW + Horizon right now because those are known continuations of known games that were hugely successful. Infinite is almost as mysterious as Starfield at this point. We barely know anything.
The sequel to two proven games from the same developer versus a game pushed out of its launch and a complete unknown.
I don't know how I could vote for the latter.

Yeah, going to have to say, "Let's wait and see" since we barely know anything about any of these games.
I am going to predict that only Halo makes 2021. Considering how Bethesda announces games Starfield is possible, but I wouldn't bet on it.
Horizon could could be targeting 2021 but I could see it pushed to 2022 February 2022, 5 years later. I really don't believe GOW makes 2021.

Sales wise I don't think you can underestimate a Bethesda game but crucially the Sony games. You can guess the meta critic for both Sony games right now without even seeing them. The formulas are known. Halo is the wild card.
To speak to Starfield being 2021... we literally won't know until it's basically due out. Bethesda really started announcing their games LATE and with a release date. Remember they announced Fallout 4 was a thing just five months before it came out (announced at E3 and came out in November).
They don't do the 'Coming 20xx' thing.

For me personally, God of War and Horizon 2 is a bigger deal.
I still want Halo and am curious about Starfield, however — I hope that both pairings will be great.

This thread seems to just be an invitation to platform war. Please enjoy all games on their own merit without dragging warz into it.
