I wanna see this current generation losing their minds at the insufferable maze that is Chiron-TL-34! Boarding Action will probably be a huge headache too aside from Sniper mains.

Yeah, I guess it depends, I think remaking all the CE maps would be cool but on the flip side, I hate Halo CE's MP by todays standards so I would have zero interest in Halo CE MP which only leaves the campaign for me to look forward to, and I feel like Halo CEA holds up well even by todays standards and I've replayed Halo CE and CEA dozens of times each so the only reason I would play Halo CE Remake if it's just a graphical and engine update would be to see how Halo feels on Unreal Engine.

Not a huge reason for me, but I'm such a Halo fanboy that I'd still play it, but then if I want to replay it I'd likely just load up MCC and replay the entire series instead, Lol. It's a weird one for me, I wish they remastered Halo 3 instead because it's the only one I can say that is in need of a upgrade and it would have been awesome if they attached it to MCC as a paid add-on.

Go play on PlayStation then. It's that simple. Xbox has a bunch of new games coming out this year so I'm certainly happy with the output. Also, dismissing a Gears Collection because it's new to PS is weird and comes off as you complaining just to complain. If it's anything like MCC, and its done well, it will be awesome. All those other games you listed either are published by PS or they have some kind of exclusive contract besides Wukong (presumably). 

Btw I'm not sure the source of that Gears rumour is a good one, I've never heard of him, but I think a Gears collection is coming either way, Lol. He says its in the PS Store backend already, then why not show us, Lol. August date is predictable and everyone else has already leaked it, what is new though is he is saying it won't have multiplayer which I was talking about a few months ago, I wasn't sure it was a smart move to release Gears Collection and Gears E-Day so close together like rumours are suggesting which would just split the multiplayer pool 2 ways and I'm sure they'll want most players on Gears E-Day so I kind of see the logic in releasing it without multiplayer and personally wouldn't care, the series is ugly now and I want to replay the campaigns, Lol. Grain of salt on the rumour though.

Wouldn't put too much stock into that Gears Collection rumor

Parris has spoken!

Someone else said the leaker is a known fanboy so -shrug-

Just get a PS5.

I'm not dismissing a Gears collection. But it's a fact that most people who still own an Xbox are likely to have played those games. They have less value to Xbox owners.

Every decision Xbox has made recently is to benefit the largest market they can appeal to, which often means people on Xbox (their own branded service) being put last. Do you think that's a good way to run a brand?

Also a game like Stellar Blade wasn't meant to be published by Sony. They simply saw the potential and decided to snatch it. It's no different than an exclusivity deal. All that has happened in front of Xbox, meanwhile they've payed massive amounts to aquire studios just so they can put more games on PlayStation while there's still less coming back the other way to their machine.

I'm just not seeing where this adds up, unless the relevance and growth of GamePass is just so massive right now and I've somehow managed to miss it. But right now Xbox is just a GamePass machine, and I'm not sure how that product grows if you're not even selling many of them.

Owning a PS5 wouldn't make me that much happier. I'm just not sure why I should be happy about the current standard of Xbox when the situation is even worse. Much worse if anything.

Are we not supposed to question the state of things and wonder where it's meant to be going?

I don't want to encourage rage posting or anything. But the fact there's absolutely no discussion on these topics is unusual to me.
