100 X enhanced games?!?!?!?!?! So it's not a next gen console but a "resurrect old games" console at a premium price point. So Xbox X is basically a very powerful emulator. Maybe they should have named it Xbox MAME❗

Come on Microsoft, fund new original AAA IP❗❗Take a chance for crying out loud. Eg if Sony hadn't taken a chance with Demon's Souls, the other consoles would never have received Dark Souls etc.

Terrible example as at the same time MS worked with From Software for the game Ninja Blade. They did exactly the same as Sony.

Ninja Blade was actually one of my favorite 360 games.

True 4K60fps beast. Not like that toystation for toddlers with down syndrom.

That goes both ways, so be nice... console peasant...

Really interested in the console.  Glad for what it can do.  Wish the PS4 could have done the same.  As a result, I only get multiplats on PC, and since microsoft has said that all xbox games will come to PC, I cannot justify an Xbox One X, when I have Ryzen 7 1800x, and a GTX 1080 Ti FTW3.  That water cooler in the xbox is also a big no-no, for me too.  Yeah, I have an AIO in my PC, however, I can take it out and replace it in a couple years.  Not happening with a console.

 

Nobody said that all xbox games comes to pc or all pc games come to xbox only if it makes sense to combine the communitys!

I dont think we will see halo 6 on pc or a crossplay at rts games, or an age of empires 4 on xbox

Spencer didn't say all PC games would come to Xbox, but he did say that he plans to unify the Xbox and Windows 10 gaming platforms.

yeah sure ...........but only if it is making sense!!!  <-- thas he said also

So Halo 1 and 2 flopped on pc but it was the biggest fps franchise for a decade on consoles. also there never will play pc m/k versus controller in a fps

 

and to unify the platforms doesn`t mean that every xbox game comes to pc, this is only a sony trolling sentence and  sure for forza , forza horizon, sea of thieves, state of decay, or the  GoW franchise it makes sense ( GoW has a big coop part where pc and xbox gamer can play together very well)

Well, you stated that Microsoft never said that all of their Xbox titles wouldn't come to PC. That source says otherwise. Next, the kb/m vs controller talk is bogus. As an example, plenty of Gears of War 4 players compete just fine.

Unless Microsoft changes their stance on some of their titles, it's a safe bet to assume that Halo 6 will also come to PC.

I can repeat it if you dont understand.

1. To Unify the platforms doesnt mean that that every xbox Game comes to pc alot of them will be avaible >> If it makes sense<<  but not everyone.

2. In Gears of war 4 the where you get violated to play with pc`s is in the Coop "Horde" Mode their it works fine in other playlists you have to activate that you want to play with pc`s, that is because also console gamers cant compete against M/K.

3. In your source they only speak of unifiying the platforms which...... exactly it doesnt mean that every xbox game comes to pc!

4. Another problem is that halo always flopped on pc because it is concipated for a console and if they would bring it on pc it would not be really safe that the sells of the pc version would be enough to create a Halo PC community, so it could be that you dont find games in the playlist as a pc player like it is now at gears of war 4, there you have full console playlists all the time but if you play it from the pc  it often happens that there are NO Players.

 

For me the reason is that it makes no sense to bring a absolutly console game to a pc where the gameplay fails.

 

And that is what Phil Spencer said 1 year ago wehen he said that they will bring some Xbox to Pc and unify the platforms if it makes sense!!



Though I'm not a Microsoft fan, I wish them luck with this launch; may it really create real competition in the console market so it keeps Sony humble, and vise versa. I have my grunts with Sony, and will not buy their PS4 Pro, it makes no sense for me, going to wait for the next generation to really get 4k60fps/Virtual Reality Performance (hopefully at 120hz+).

I'm just a fan of competition, and innovation.

Is it a guarantee that Halo 6 will come to Windows 10? Of course not.

So you see im right and people dont have to lie when they say " Microsft said all Xbox games will be avaible on pc" also not if it is a trolling forum like here, and did you ever played halo, gears or forza online for a longer time? if not then you dont know what you are talking about and you dont will see the difference in theese games so it makes no sense to discuss it with you....

Halo 6 is going to look great on this baby next year and I already have several games I want to replay in 4k :) May actually buy the new Assassin Creed (never been a fan of this franchise) as it looks quite nice.

I am hoping they push fidelity and not resolution with Halo 6.

I don't want the game to look like a really good Xbox One game at 4k.
I want it to blow socks off, I want it to make people weak at the knees.

And the Xbox needs it, they lack exclusives, so the exclusives they do have... They need to smash out of the park.

Halo flopping on PC is Microsoft's own fault.

They delayed launches, they pushed intrusive DRM schemes, they didn't push/support PC technology, they didn't make their games available on the largest store front on PC. Aka. Steam.

If you were to ask me which platform I would prefer to play Halo on, it would be PC every single time.
It can have better graphics, better framerates, better controls and support features like modding.

The majority of XBox One games do end up on PC.
And don't be surprised if Halo 6 ends up being one of them either, although I doubt it at this point with Halo 5 being the precedent, but I have seen Microsoft do stranger things.

I've played plenty of both Forza 6: Apex (which doesn't have crossplay with Forza 6 on XB1) and Gears 4 online, but I'm curious, what does that have to do with them being Xbox Play Anywhere titles? What stops Halo 6 from becoming one? What leads you to think Microsoft will change their minds for that title, specifically?

Also, the poster who said Microsoft was plannig to share Xbox games with Windows 10 was, in fact, basing that on words spoken directly from the horse's mouth. You never provided any solid source to the contrary. 

The thing is it works fine for Gear and forza i love it! But halo isnt only shooting it is THE Console Shooter and if you would play it then you would know what i mean. And this is what phil spemcer mean when he said that they unify the platforms if it makes sense.

It is the same thing for AoE 4 in the other direction, Why you can play a tropico, cities Skylines or a Civilisation on consoles but no AoE4? The Reason is that it makes no sense the controls for  something like tropico are "ok" because you dont need a good micromanagment to build up a town. but something like AoE, Starcraft or Company of Heroes you will never see on a console again if ther is no support for M/K.

So there is no Aoe on Xbox as the same reason there will no halo 6 on pc it makes no sense!

If you would be a really halo fan and if you would play it alot you dont would say that you would prefer a pc for Halo, for BF yeah and perhaps for a Cod but not for a halo.......... .And no other fan would prefer the pc for halo .........

But sorry if have to say this if there are 1080p @ 60fps on a Xbox One and 4k @60fps on the Xbox One X and you want to tell me that you are preferring a pc for this because of the technology, then i have to tell you you are a troll which never really played halo and who is sleeping with his playststation.

I personally would like for MS to do what Crystal D did with Tomb Raider and have 3 different modes.  A performance 60fps mode.  A throw everything IQ candy we can mode and your 4K, mode.  This can satisfy pretty much every type of gamer.



Looking good. Will hold me over quite nicely for a while, considering the backlog and all.

Already sold my 980Ti as i'm converting my two old PC's into mining rigs.

Going to wait for Volta and an Oculus refresh for a new gaming build, for the next year or so Xbox One X and PS4 Pro will have me more than covered.
