They'll make it to next-gen launch. But I don't see them lasting much longer.
They can pivot to another model but they're losing half their stores. There's absolutely no doubt in my mind. It will be tough for rural areas here where I live but internet is pretty widely available even in my very very unpopulated state

I've been saving my reward points and will just but the XSX directly from Microsoft.

I've got 60k+ just now and want to see how much more I can get before next Fall.

So I decided to complete fh3 and it's dlcs before I started fh4. As I was completing hot wheels I kept thinking how are they gonna improve this, it's perfect , im gonna be burned for fh4 and boy, was I wrong. It is improved in every aspect and it's so fun and even more addictive.
Playground is definitely up there with the best studios around the world. It's hard to innovate in racing genre but they keep making fun games. I can't wait for theire rpg game.

I've honestly been telling friends to avoid pre-ordering their consoles from GameStop, especially since our local store isn't very high traffic and we have no idea if they'll be closing within the next year.

I'll probably buy mine through Microsoft or one off the big retailers (not Amazon).

Really wish MS could find a Japanese studio to build into making Triple A JRPGs. It would fill so many Japanese game and JRPG fans, plus there aren't any of the Triple A kind besides Final Fantasy.

Honestly if its too difficult to buy a Japanese studio they should just find a well known japanese director and start a studio for him

Yes, they won't be given their due though until they do something that's not a racing game. It is BS but it's how it is.

Yes, that would work also. Tabata quit Square Enix and started his own company. MS should see if he's interested to get bought out by them and giving them massive support to make big budget, blockbuster JRPGS.

Just now on Xbox Reddit I saw that Moon Studios' new IP will be an action RPG? Also the page mentions PS4, so it seems it won't be exclusive to Xbox.

Probably nothing new for this thread though, or is it?

No, it was already announced to be multiplat.
I mean, it's nice, but not XGS. Now more people can experience Moon's games!
It has been presumed to be multiplat around here.

Agreed. It's always a good thing if more folks get to enjoy it.

Oh also, the post talked about how Moon had been receiving multiple acquisition offers but currently are not interested, partly because they are so confident that this game is going to be a hit.

Hot take: while I love AAA games like the last of us, Gears, Halo, Uncharted, etc., Ori and the Blind Forest has stuck with me for a lot longer and I'm more looking forward to Will of the Wisps than anything else short term. Easily one of my games of the decade.

Yep, same here. I pre-ordered the Will of the Wisps collector's edition from Best Buy even though I have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

I corrected him on the complaints that people have. Calling that "triggered" is about as immature as it gets and kinda fitting for someone with your user name.



Exactly correct. It's no different than there being certain types of movies that audiences are far more interested in than others.
What people are saying on this particular topic is that there's room for more than just cinematic third person narrative story driven one and done spectacles. Sure there's room for those on the Xbox platform, but I know many enjoy AA and Indie games that are just as/ moreseo enjoyable. Not to mention incredible multi player and co op games which the Xbox platform excels at. It's rather tiring reading posts that attempt to throw other genres of games under the radar because they arent Sony-type games, which all seem to resemble each other if Im being honest. Not to say third person narrative games are bad. They aren't! I enjoy them just as well. But holy shit!, gimme something else to wet my pallet with.

I much prefer diversity in my gaming collection.

Gears 5 was fine, but it didn't share the earth for me. Most of the XGS titles next year will be AA fodder, which doesn't excite me much. The thing is, Xbox lacks really big releases. Halo Infinite? Probably will launch with Series X next to PS5 and its collection of exclusive AAA games.

Gears 5 didn't shake the Earth for you but you're excited for another open world game? OK then...

Even after playing Gears 5, Halo 5, God of War and Spiderman, Outer Wilds is still my game of the gen. I want more games like that.

?

If you don't like one FPS game it doesn't mean you can't like other one as example.

Besides Gears 5 isn't really openworld game like Witcher 3 as example.

I was talking about that dude excited for Ghost of Tsushima...but dismissing Gears 5 hence why I said "you're exicited for another open world game" ?

"edit" dude got banned anyway so its moot now

Ori and the Blind Forests is one of those 10/10 games that I don't know anything I'd change, everything fits perfectly for me.

Can't wait for Ori and the Will of the Wisps.

Yeah my point still stands? Why couldn't he be exicited about another open world game even If he didn't like gears 5? There are pretty many people who like open world games, but didn't like gears 5 open world segments

Going back through Halo, 5's soundtrack is so good but 4's is some of my favorite music of all time. I'm excited for 6 after finding out who would be doing it. My god I cannot wait for Infinite. if I had a top 10 list of most anticipated games it would take up the top 50 spots at this point.

Neil Davidge and the sound team at 343i did an amazing job with Halo 4. Shame that it wasn't as well received by fans but I'm starting to see more and more people appreciate what Halo 4 (campaign in particular) did.



Halo Infinite so far used several tracks that sound very similar to the first Halo game. I'm so ready for a new Halo experience :D

Yeah the composer working on it made very Halo sounding music before and is incredibly talented. I can't wait to hear his take on the game world.

I've been thinking about this but would people on this site be interested in a pre-release discussion thread for Halo Infinite? I could get a thread up by January 1st with all the stuff and info (official + rumors) ;)

I wanted to do one for Gears 5 but felt that the place wasn't as interested in Gears as i thought it was :/

I think once we get a gameplay reveal then a pre-release discussion would make sense. Right now we really don't have much to go on.

I still think halo 4s campaign is the best in the series in terms of story and pacing.

Lol, Halo 4's campaign is dumb, i find inconsistencies in every scene, theres always something off about every single scene, just take the intro with Halsey for example, it doesn't feel right, i don't know. I won't say that it feels like fanfic, but is not far from there.
