When it comes to Halo, all I got to say is yikes. 4-5 months til launch, on a game delayed for 7 months now, yet we only see in-engine cutscenes for the campaign? How do they not have at a few levels ready to show gameplay at this point? Are they even working to improve the levels or are they just remaking the cutscenes in-engine (pretty sure they were in-game last time) so they look better in ads? And finally, how is Xbox so poorly mismanaged? Their only franchise that seems to constantly be on top of things is Forza. Yeesh.

I would rather them not force out a demo that takes away from the development of an already delayed game. They will show off the single player in next few months when they're ready. We saw gameplay yesterday for the multiplayer so if you're curious about how the single player will look and feel, there you go. 

So because Halo has had some development issues, every Xbox studio is mismanaged? Flight Sim, Psychonauts 2, Age of Empires 4, FH5 are all quality games and releasing this year, and I'm sure Halo Infinite will great. 

This is supposed to be a big gaming event, and definitely one where you would want to show how much the game has improved after the big backlash they got last time. Instead we got an in-engine cutscene. You may also want to rewatch that multiplayer "gameplay" vid. It too said it was all in-engine. Not even in-game, and definitely not actual gameplay. So yea, I'm definitely going to call mismanagement when this is supposed to be their biggest franchise, it's already been delayed by 7 months, and we still have yet to see actual new gameplay running on an Xbox. And yet, it's supposed to launch in 4-5 months?

And your list doesn't even make sense. Flight Sim was developed by a 3rd party, not an Xbox studio. Same goes for AoE4. Wonder why. Psychonauts 2 was well into development before MS bought the studio, hence the PS4 version. I also said Forza was the only one that seemed to be on top of their stuff.
