Halo looked absolutely brilliant. Despite some texture pop-in. Looking forward to it. Overall I hoped for more gameplay footage but it was a good show. Plenty of games to look forward to combined with May event. And there's more to come.

Game Pass for the Win!

I definitely think we'll get some games in 2021. Everwild is 2021 most likely. Either Avowed or Fable will be their big Q4 2021 AAA, probably Avowed since Obsidian has had a large team working on it for 2 and a half years already according to leakers (4 years by Holiday 2021), it was in development before MS even acquired Obsidian. We might not get Forza Motorsport reboot in 2021, but if we don't we're definitely getting Forza Horizon 5 in 2021, no way they go 3 years in a row with no new Forza games, a series that was yearly at one point.

I definitely think State of Decay 3 and Fable are 2022 games.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I might buy a console solely for the bloody Medium's sake. The game had a je ne sais quoi that drew me like hell. Also, the aesthetic, often overlooked, reminds me of FF (Fable did as well) and I'm a sucker for gorgeous characters and more so coming from Western devs who seem to think FF character designs are anime and their potato heads are "realistic" even though I have an IMDB list that says otherwise. 

SoD no longer interests me. 

All in all, it was good, but it won't be turning people over and that's what I was hoping for. It's for the people who are already on board. 

Totally agree with this one. Probably the biggest problem with today's show

Guys I recommend seeing a 4K video of Halo it looks much better then the stream. Renewed my expectations for the game. It certainly looks like Halo and much cleaner.

To pull off a open world with 4K/60 FPS these graphics are more then acceptable. 343 gave me a Halo I can explore and get lost in. That’s something.Bungie never did and for that 343 has my loyalty for the foreseeable future.

Also as a pro-sprinter I’m glad Infinite has it. Better suited being open world and all.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

I also watched a video of the event and not a stream. Was a bit surprised to read bitching about Halo visuals. Looked great and smooth imo.

It's worth noting that they said Ray Tracing will arrive post launch for Halo Infinite which suggests to me like they had to sacrifice it due to the less efficient working from home to reach console launch.

I feel like that can wait. Things like playlists, Forge, custom games etc, those can’t afford to be delayed.

Yup it’s a game changer I see the difference.

Hopefully it doesn't follow Doom Eternal situation

Okay, so now Avowed in 2021 is more likely
