To answer your question in the title. No. Not as long as there is a platform where it looks better, runs better and has the superior input method.

Maybe it's the only way to play it but it's certainly not the way it's meant to.

So...How is it meant to be played then? PC? Not available on PC . Only forge. Switch? Nope. PS4? Nope. Sitting down? Standing up? Hanging upside down?   Please enlighten us. 

lol

I am also curious to hear what is the real way it is meant to be played.



Around the Network

I've tried a lot of my games but not Halo 5, yet. I've actually never played more than a few minutes if it since I bought it. I guess I could begin a marathon of the MCC, Halo Reach, and then jump on Halo 5. Even the unpatched games I've tried look noticably better!



A battery meter can now be seen.

Congratulations Microsoft, you really did it this time!

In all seriousness it doesn't look that different to me. It sucks that the visual design of Halo 5 is so appalling and unappealing, maybe I'd be able to tell the difference if it looked better visually.



The way is meant to be played? He used an assault rifle the whole time... His aim is all over the place.. Drops a saw for an ar.... While the game looks amazing in 4k it was quite painful for me to watch.

Another full 4k title.



Just read your post, I cant wait to try out Halo 5 on my brand new X1X. Big differences from what DF is claiming.

The visual upgrade this game got on X1X is insane! How did Microsoft build such a powerful/quiet console in such a tiny box for $499!? They have to be taking a loss on the 1X but I bet they don't care as long as their customers are happy with it's unrivaled value. It's good to have the old Microsoft back!!!



So no one is going to call them out for the fact it’s not running at native 4K, even though the MS marketing clearly stated all their first party titles would do that?!

Do you really not have anything better to do? 

You're in every single Xbox thread trying to derail the conversation into how awful Microsoft is... We get it.  

I have seen people here banned for saying things like "PS4 Pro was a mistake" yet you're allowed to freely spew hate for 8+ hours a day with zero moderation. 

I wish the moderators would monitor people more fairly so this could be a fun place to come for BOTH PS and Xbox fans. 

I really don't understand why people act like this.

They have nothing other in their live thats it, there alot of haters here and some mods are too........

 

Look at the post from DonFerrari too "Perhaps H5 was to ambitious for X1 original HW." He`s not saying that it looks better he`s only saying that that the Originals Xbox was to weak what is pointless because of of solid 60 fps all the time.........

If you say that he is a troll  and has nothing more in his live then there is a 50% chance  you get banned for 1 or 2weeks and you get a message that you please dont have to troll....

So see you in 2 weeks xD
