I don't like Halo but I liked Gears 5.

When I get a PS5, yes, but I'd only replay the older Bungie Halo games. 4 was ok, 5 was meh, and I have zero interest in Infinite.

I liked the first couple Gears as well but haven't played the others.

Doesn't look like those would be coming anytime soon, if at all, after the XB podcast info.

Infinite is pretty emblematic of why I can't keep any interest in Xbox stuff. I know virtually nothing about the singleplayer campaign, which tells me it wasn't the game's main focus, and all I've heard about the multiplayer is that it's a microtransaction-ridden mess and has been struggling with balance since day one. 

I like Sony and Nintendo because they make games with great stories and characters with a gameplay first mentality. I avoid stuff with microtransactions or GaaS mechanics and it seems most of Xbox's output includes that in some manner. That's why the only games on the Xbox I actually want right now are Starfield, Hi-Fi Rush, and Pentiment. Two of those are coming to PS and the other I just got on PC for my birthday.
