It's as though they only care about new gamers, to come in and join the ecosystem. But for those wanting new experiences and have caught up in games they wanted to play, need to wait.
I will say, the launch lineup isn't as impressive after Halo Infinite was delayed.
With that said, I'm okay with the lineup now. Gears Tactics and then Cyberpunk 2077 releasing a few days later will keep me busy for sometime. Along with my backlog of games all being BC, and whatever is on Gamepass, I'll be good until the next big game release.
| epicurean said: Everything you say is accurate, but its still disappointing there isn't something flashy and new. I felt burned by the XOne generations lack of exclusives, so by not having something out of the gate it just continues to make me leery and hold off. Obviously that won't be the case for everyone, especially if you only plan on buying one console and the Xbox is your brand of choice. And with all the studio acquisitions you know eventually there will be some. But I'm waiting for a reason this time as opposed to last gen. So mad at myself at jumping the gun last gen hoping for certain titles that never came. |
I agree, its valid to be disappointed by MS's lack of content at launch. I likely would have ignored him had he simply had your views. I was responding to bad ideas when its clear people are pretty hyped about this new hardware regardless of the lack of launch exclusives.

Thanks. I added missing games.
Added Borderlands 3.
Yakuza: Like a Dragon is now a Day 1 purchase for me now. Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla & Yakuza: Like a Dragon are the two games I'll pick on launch day.
I plan on getting one in January, but it really is a laughable lineup. Some of those franchises I have officially put my foot down for good aswell so it really is slim pickings.
But, I greatly respect the push towards backpat. MS lead the way on this one. No other console launched with this much focus on backpat right out of the gate.

Bold: I see your point, if you're basing this on the upgrades that some BC games will get. Though PS3 launched with BC for the complete libraries of both PS1 and PS2. XBX has BC for XB1, 25% of 360's library, and 41 out of the 1001 original Xbox games.
It's better than PS5's BC but it can be argued whether it's the most complete BC of all time.
Respect to all differing opinions, but for my taste, this lineup is brutally dull. Will not be getting an XSX or S anytime soon, but hopefully MSFT can convince me in the next few years with some good games. I got burned pretty bad on my XBO purchase. But MSFT is definitely playing to win now.
Curious...why did you list games like FH4, Gears 5, and SoT, since they’re just XBO games? Is there something special about them over other backwards compatible games for XSX?
People need to raise their standards abit higher. These minor enhancements to old games doesn't alter the fact it's an abysmal launch. People should be on twitter giving xbox ceo a hard time about it.
