Do you only care about AAAs or something? Lol.

They've had great content in the past few years, AA-wise, so it is easy to understand why people have the belief that once the AAA content finally comes, it will be great too, because many of the studios they own are great studios who put out quality products. Even the few AAAs released have been higher quality as of recently, they're creating much higher quality content lately than they produced at the end of the Xbox One era.

It's a matter of when, not if, for those dozens of AAAs in development to start to be released on a consistent basis. There is no logical sense that you can look at everything they have in their pipeline and think otherwise unless half of it is cancelled, Lol.

2021 was considered great by many, everyone was raving about Xbox's 2021, 2022 was bad, 2023 games-wise in the end should be good and 2024 will be even better.

Sony hasn't even released anything this year aside from the upcoming Final Fantasy, Lol.

Xbox had a bad year, no doubt they fucked up in 2022...Okay...We're over that now and Redfall, Forza Motorsport and Starfield are literally months away.

No I don't care about AAA only and 2021 wasn't that great , it was great because we assumed it was going to be the worst year for xbox gaming content wise and 2021 was certainly good and more goodness for the next years sounded amazing ('next year is going to better')  as a better example 2021 was the year halo infinite released and since then a lot of dreams/hopes got smashed.

You may lol but Sony already has delivered great content and they did not promise anything yet (no idea what's releasing later the year) but Spiderman 2 could be announced this summer and released at the end of the year could be a bunch of games.

And your last comment sums it up again, in January people also said 'Redfall/Forza/Starfield are months away'  

"It was great because we assumed it was going to be the worst year for xbox gaming content wise"

Wut? Literally never heard of this narrative before, Lol. It was considered great because...it was great, Lol. Don't need to make up narratives.

"2021 was certainly good" Agreed.

Yeah we thought 2022 would be good, it wasn't, move on

2023 looks just as good as 2021 and could easily be even better.

"as a better example 2021 was the year halo infinite released and since then a lot of dreams/hopes got smashed."

Halo Infinite was great at launch...For the 500th time, its biggest problem was maintaining a post-launch support which killed the multiplayer base, the campaign and multiplayer were both widely regarded as being great but people expected a strong post-launch which they didn't get, that is a vital error in an age of constant updates and maps to multiplayer live-service titles.

"but Spiderman 2 could be announced this summer and released at the end of the year could be a bunch of games."

And...So could Xbox titles, next.

"And your last comment sums it up again, in January people also said 'Redfall/Forza/Starfield are months away"

Lol. The vast majority of people were expecting Starfield in around May/June, it was delayed by a few months more than what most were expecting, the horror.

It's still 2023. Redfall is still 1st half of 2023 as promised. Starfield and Forza slipped. Still both very likely for 2023.

I've decided to play Redfall on launch in spite of the 30 fps. Who all else is playing at launch? Might try and do some co-op with some of you, probably not the whole game due to host only progress, but some of the harder content at least.

I'll be playing, for sure

Already pre-installed on my PC and boxes! Will play minute-one!



Idk how many games yall expect from first parties lol.

Ideally I'd like one big AAA each quarter, but I understand that might not happen. 3-4 seems acceptable to me with sprinkled in AA releases as well, such as Hi Fi rush and smaller titles like Pentiment.

I'm sure there's going to be some surprises at E3 (I'm still calling it that) which will release later this year.

Hi Fi Rush
Minecraft Legends
Redfall
Foza
Starfield

Avowed
Hellblade
-Hopefully Q1,Q2 2024 at latest.

This also doesn't include gamepass day one games and surprises as well as 3rd party games too! Gamepass is such a great service as it allows you to play games you never thought you would try. Like some people here trying JRPGs, me playing fighting games. If I wasn't a b*tch I'd play some of the horror games. Try something new.

Leak: The Asus ROG Ally Will Cost $699.99 With an AMD Z1 Extreme - The Verge

That's a better price than I expected it would be.

Microsoft should help them get it down further and there's your Xbox handheld, Lol.

I will literally sell my Steam Deck to get this!!! After seeing what kind of performance the Z1 Extreme gets, I was figuring $1,000 minimum. The only real concerns left I have are battery life and the UI.

As a lifelong gamer, I tend to simp for the best developers. I'm weird that way



It's actually tempting...It's full Windows yeah? It's basically an Game Pass handheld, Lol.

But then Windows Store/Xbox App runs so bad on PC that I wonder how it would run on a handheld 💀
