I'll start. I didn't buy either next-gen console. I'm still amazed by my Oculus Quest 2 and the ability to play Stadia and Amazon Luna on my iPad. I already 'feel' like I'm in the next-gen, so I didn't feel the need to buy new hardware. Probably won't for some time. However, I would've picked up a Series S DAY ONE had Halo launched with it.
I own an Xbox One S that I only turn on for my daughter's Disney Adventures game and Master Chief Collection. When Flight Simulator eventually comes out, I'll likely grab that, too. However, I've been a PS4 man for the entire gen 7. I'm embarrassed by how many digital games I own. Every AAA first party.
That said, not compelled even a little for PS5. Looks great. The controller seems awesome. The normal itch to have Day One console? Not feeling it.
But had Xbox launched with Halo - as seen at E3 which i was more than fine with - I'd have jumped. I have to wonder how many other people feel this way? Was the uproar about the gfx WAAAAAAY overblown? I'd have been fine with patches and visual upgrades ala WoW over the course of the lifespan of the game. The game looked great. Didn't need to look like Spider-Man or Dark Souls for me.
I just have to wonder...
