Xbox July event thread

I love the general 'speaking for everyone' vibe you're giving off. Nothing on there save for Perfect Dark and maybe Lost Odyssey interest me. And those aren't even something I'm missing either.
At the end there I wrote No "add favorite games here"
My list is not a complete list just some of people's faves.

I'm sorry. I just can't get on board to bring back these old games from entirely different eras in Xbox history. Their all dormant AF for a reason. Bringing them back, especially in today's gaming climate, wouldn't so much as move the needle as far as effort or software sales. Those games are gone for a reason. Its just not worth it even for nostalgia sake. Let em rest in peace, FFS. lol
Yea I don't know how Nintendo and Sony know how to do it but MS/XGS can't seem to get the formula right.

His list is missing Kameo and Azurik.

Basically go ahead and feel free to add to the list.

yep. And a few others. That’s where I take issue with generalised comments where one persons claims to be represent everyone. Like or don’t like something. But don’t claim to be representing an entire community.
I don't represent anyone but many people have asked for those.
Not sure why it bothers you so much.

It bothered me because it’s the usual hyperbole that cogs up good discussion. You made sweeping generalisations about how out of touch MS are and that people want these games, blah blah blah. You’re confusing what you want with what you think we all want.

Not a great time after the show to be an Xbox fan, but I tell you what, you PS fans have been a disgrace the way you have acted. I’m sorry but as far as I’m concerned the Xbox fans on the whole that visit this site have been pretty restrained when it comes to talking about the PS5. I mean we’ve got people here saying Halo Infinite looks worse than a 360 game ffs. Turn it in. Yes what was shown was a disappointment but my word you’ve really piled in with the trolling. I notice that a lot of Xbox fans never kept on about how the PS5 graphics architect admitted that he did actually say that PS5 was RDNA 1.5 but he was tired so he didn’t know what he was saying lol. Sure. We all frequent this site for years and try to be as respectful as possible but boy have you lot shown your true colours. I’m disappointed in the Halo reveal but I’m even more disappointed in how some of you PS fans have acted. Could say more but I’ll leave it at that.
 
Hey Beavis and Butthead; (Jinca n' Yank) I said looked pretty consistent. Not exactly like it. Christ on a stick...

It's not even close as far as overall fidelity and quality, style? sure but nothing else.

Nah you over reacted because I mentioned a bunch of games that many other people have mentioned they would like to see sequels for.

If we can't discuss the type of games we'd like to see XGS release then maybe I'm in the wrong type of forum.
Nope its the Xbox forum ;-/

By all means do try and contribute to the discussion.

Who said it looks worse than a 360 game? To me what we've seen it looks like an X1X game running at 60fps and 4K, nothing about it stands out as impressive visually and when it's MS's biggest IP and this is it's coming out party for next gen you'd think it'd be better than that.

Sony's show had trailers that included clips of gameplay for the most part and everything shown was actually running on PS5 dev kits, nothing shown at either MS event was running on a Series X dev kit. The ONLY new game announcements that MS had were all CGI trailers or the Forza "in engine" trailer which isn't really showing what the game is going to look like either, the only actual gameplay other than Halo that came from MS first parties was indie quality. If you have a problem with that stuff take it up with MS not people who've been posting on this forum since it was teamxbox discussing what we all saw.

As far as that Sony employee, it's not RDNA1.5, the guy did get that wrong but hey believe him if you want instead of the CEO of AMD and every other Sony higher up who's talked about it. You couldn't run at those clocks, have hardware accelerated RT and that power efficiency along with the many other features unless it was RDNA2 for crying out loud.

There really hasn't been any trolling in this thread. Seems like an overreaction.

My point regarding the PS5 guy was it wasn’t carried on here. It could have but as I say, I think a lot of us here just let it slide rather than troll you and wind you up. Jinca, I know you’ve got a critical mind and could easily see where an Xbox fan could poke holes in that statement but as I say, restraint was held imo. As for who compared it to worse than a 360 game I can’t remember but it was said if you care to look back. I stand by my previous comment.
 
Do you see how hard it is to please the gaming community in general for Microsoft with new Ips, new studios, new services, new devs, new hardware etc? The gaming community (for the most part) don't have a clue what they want. I've said before and I'll say it again: gamers are fickle and for the most part dumb as s***. Microsoft has delivered in almost everything gamers have asked for, and its not enough, or they didn't do it right, or its not like Sony or Ninty, etc.

When you consider all that, do you really think Microsoft is going to see any real success by reviving old Ips from yesterday? Not. A. Chance. In. Hell.

They need to keep moving forward with what their doing. Leave yesterday in the past where it belongs.

People have been asking for a new Crimson Skies since the 360 launched it's not that hard of a thing to get lol, hell I'd be happy with a remake of the first one with modern graphics on the X1X but a sequel would be great, it's not like there are a ton of games like it out there on consoles right now.

MS hasn't done s*** this gen as far as trying to please gamers, they've messed up every step they've taken since Kinect launched. They FINALLY added to first party studios 2 years ago and that's all well and good but we haven't actually gotten any games from them yet and several of them were already only working with xbox to begin with so it's not going to increase the volume as much as some think.

What exactly in your view has MS delivered on? I'm not trying to be a jerk here just tell me what in your view they've done to please gamers this generation?

Wow, that sucks dude. It doesn’t really bother me. Probably because while I am willing to join discussions, I generally don’t care what people on the internet think. I enjoy most of what I play on Xbox and some random dudes aren’t changing that.

It probably wasn't carried on here because most people know it's bulls*** lol. I don't come over here to trash xbox, it's a new gen and I think most of us as gamers are interested in new consoles and games regardless of who's making them, most of us are here because we were at least at one time Xbox enthusiasts as well and would love to see something bring us back to feeling good about their consoles the way we used to. I'm not one of those people who thinks I can only like one company, I'm not loyal to corporations they just want my money they couldn't care less about me as an individual so why should I care about them?

MS was doing a great job with their messaging up until it came time to show the games and they've flubbed both opportunities. That doesn't mean the XSX isn't a great console that can't produce amazing looking games it just means the people at MS at this point don't have their s*** together and this is technically their 5th console launch (counting X1X) so you'd think they'd have it down by now.
 
Yeah. I'm not sure why they haven't produced at least a vertical slice of some of these games. Its like all their projects are still in the planning stages.

A lot of the studios they bought 2 years ago are smaller studios, several had projects they were working on that still had to be finished and shipped before they moved on to working on xbox games etc. Most of them weren't the type of studio you'd expect a big AAA release from anyway let alone in 2 years. If that Obsidian game ends up being like Skyrim I could be very interested in it but they've only shown that short CG trailer so I'm guessing it won't be ready until late 2022 at the earliest.

Yeah I think everyone is entitled to their opinion, I’m definitely looking forward to the games coming, comments here won’t lessen the enjoyment for me. I just like to visit this place and read and talk about the games and maybe I’m being harsh, just gets tiring I suppose. If I go to other forums I expect it for sure and here to up to a point, just think that after all these years and the same people Xbox/PS fans maybe a little bit of restraint would be nice but like you say,,it’s the internet, who am I kidding.

Let’s agree to disagree.

Even if you find the negativity from someone to be biased its still not trolling. If people have issues with what Sony is doing I don't know why they wouldn't post about it. Its all worthy of discussion which is the point.

And I think a main point people miss with the negativity around Xbox is it generally isn't really coming from trolling PS fans it comes from disillusioned Xbox fans.

Yeah definitely some disillusioned Xbox fans and about 50% of posts from some very concerned PS fans.
 
Okay, have people watched this demonstration? That’s pretty cool concept.

With so much focus on Halo, I feel like we’re forgetting cool stuff like this. Now it makes sense why it’s only possible on XSX.
