Daniel21831377d ago

Looking forward to a great show !!!!

potatoseal1377d ago

I hope they can finally convince me to buy my very first Xbox console. Not getting my hopes up though. But I'm interested to see what they have. Lets go MS.

Father__Merrin1377d ago

I'd recemommend one there will always be games that will take your fancy. The rumours are lockhart is half the price of series X so I'm waiting for that announcement

sprinterboy1377d ago

In the same boat fella, it's upto Xbox to give me a reason, although I can't wait for flight sim but at the moment that's gonna be project xcloud through pc or my future TV.
Come on xbox, let's see some proper AAA new ips which interest me 🤞

nirwanda1377d ago

I think gamepass may be enough to convince me, to jump over from PS4 with all the XBone games this gen and first party games for almost free(with a years sub that's almost the price of one game)

potatoseal1377d ago

@ Nirwanda, Oh I'm definitely getting the PS5. But I may go with an Xbox also this upcoming gen.

Christopher1377d ago

I wonder if they'll show that new Halo game or not?

SpeedDemon1377d ago

They'll catch a lot of flak if they don't

LOGICWINS1377d ago

Halo? Never heard of it....is that a new IP? 😆

potatoseal1377d ago

Is that the game with that Robot-looking Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle? /s

RaidenBlack1377d ago

Well, they did hint at a Halo game launching for Windows Phones. Heard its gonna be free to play.
Why does it matter anyways? I can't afford those products.
Retails for $599 a piece. Has 1.2Ghz processing power and whatnots.

crazyCoconuts1377d ago

Lol. It's funny how much $ people fork over for their phones every few years without expecting some grand launch

deleted1377d ago

Personally, I feel done with Halo, however I do want to see if Playground Games unveils the new Fable game! That would get me excited.

potatoseal1377d ago (Edited 1377d ago )

I've never played a Fable game, but I'm looking forward to seeing the rumored new 'Fable'. Funny Cartoon-like Fantasy RPG yeah. That's one of the big ones that I would like to see a lot more of, if the rumors are true.

cl19831377d ago

They changed the name Halo was a working title, it's now gears of gods

Bathyj1377d ago

If they don't show extended gameplay of some interesting titles I will not be happy. And show me crimson Skies for God's sake. I don't give a rat's arse about another halo. I need a reason to buy this thing. Give it to me and I'll do it.

Software_Lover1377d ago

Crimson skies is a no brainer for this gen. They need to do it.

ziggurcat1377d ago

Halo appears to be the focus, so far. A few interesting titles have been shown, though.

timotim1377d ago

For anyone that wants to watch the official Xbox link...

cl19831377d ago

Gaming4Life19811377d ago

Thanks was looking for the official link.

Desperate Xbox players turn to Halo Forge for their Helldivers 2 fix

PS5-exclusive Helldivers 2 is so popular that Xbox players want a taste of democracy, and now Halo Forge will be the battleground for a Helldivers 2 remake.

XiNatsuDragnel67d ago

That's wild but hey if forge satisfies than that's good

GamerRN66d ago

Also.... Desperate Xbox players? I mean Helldivers2 looks ok, but I wouldn't call it anything to get desperate over..

God of War and the other exclusive are more worth desperation. I don't think I'm gonna even try Helldivers2, in still trying to beat Forbidden West, and I still of Ghosts, Ragnarok and TLOU2 to play

Old McGroin66d ago

Helldivers 2 is a phenomenally good game. You should definitely check it out if you get the chance. Looks like the devs have the server capacity issue pretty much sewn up now so it's a good time to jump in.

WolfSeed66d ago

You clearly haven't tried it. It's pure crack.

MrNinosan66d ago

I thought exactly like you, until I tried Helldivers 2... and then I was hooked.
The only thing that will stop me from playing it going forward is Final Fantasy VII Rebirth next week.

1Victor66d ago

@gamer: “Also.... Desperate Xbox players? I mean Helldivers2 looks ok”

Lest be honest for a minute even Phil want it on Xbox and if it wasn’t desperation the forge player wouldn’t be trying to copy it 🤷🏿

Barlos65d ago

Nobody is desperate over a game. Its pure clickbait.

TwoPicklesGood65d ago

I enjoy Helldivers 2 but it isn’t phenomenal or anything, its just a good game. Sure us ps5 players don’t have many multiplayer games so maybe that skews perspective. What we should be worrying about Is all the bugs and issues that STILL plague the game. It shouldn’t have been released in this state.

Helldivers 2 graphically makes halo on series x look 2 gen behind.

Rdeal65d ago

Are you saying Helldivers 2 graphics are better than Halo's? if so you need glasses , graphics has to be the worst part of Helldivers 2, I have seen better on the PS4

Hypertension14065d ago (Edited 65d ago )

@Rdeal

It's not the best looking game around
but the graphics definitely look better than halo infinite. The destruction on display while also maintaining a steady performance is also very impressive.

I've also seen better on PS4, but I say the same for almost every Xbox Series X game this generation.

Kiryu199265d ago

Why desperate Xbox fans? Why are we so split as a gaming community? So gamers wanting to play awesome games are not labeled desperate?

DarXyde65d ago

I don't think it's really unusual.

LittleBigPlanet allowed for that.

Jin_Sakai67d ago (Edited 67d ago )

Just get a PS5 and be done with it. Four Xbox exclusives are making their way over with more to follow down the road.

343_Guilty_Spark66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

When is Halo Infinite coming?

Hellblade 2 coming?

Jin_Sakai66d ago

Soon enough.

VincentVanBro66d ago

Neither of those are worth an entire console so who cares?

DazaMc66d ago

Anytime now, who knows.

MrNinosan66d ago

Probably within a year, but don't worry. They will still be available on the box of your choice, except if Switch is your choice.

Or just play it on your PC...

InUrFoxHole65d ago

Why get either console? All are coming to pc anyway

Shane Kim65d ago

If it wasn't for the initial cost, then I would never get a console.

InUrFoxHole65d ago

Honestly pc is great but I love the convenience of a console

OptimusDK65d ago

You couldn’t help yourself right Jin

Jin_Sakai65d ago

I just couldn’t help but tell the reality of the situation.

goldwyncq65d ago

Or just get a PC because all Xbox and PS games are coming to it sooner or later. Nintendo's the only company practicing true exclusivity nowadays.

Tedakin65d ago

Sony's present said first party games will be on pc and other platforms too. So what? And before you say he just meant "pc and playstation" that was debunked. Day 1 pc is definitely coming from Sony, ending your precious exclusives.

Neonridr67d ago

I remember the good old days of Halo 3 and the Forge. Some wild game games came from it.

RaidenBlack67d ago

Just let Coalition develop or at least assist in developing the next Halo ... 343 alone is not enough

Jin_Sakai66d ago

They already assisted with development.

“Gears of War studio The Coalition helped out with Halo Infinite”

https://www.vg247.com/gears...

RaidenBlack66d ago

Then lead the next Halo development with 343 assisting instead ... as well as leverage some of the other new acquired studios if possible

neomahi65d ago

That would be smart, but makes too much sense. BUT, The Coalition is pretty much dead, without Rod Ferguson, there's nothing there. That was the point of that team was that he was heading it up but even Rod Ferguson turned down being the boss and head of his own studio making Microsoft money to go to Blizzard, and isn't it ironic, look where's he's at now. Cliff Blezinski offered to go back to work on Gears and Xbox (one of their biggest IPs) shut him down and told him no. Gears put Xbox on the map, and they told him no. Sony wouldn't tell David Jaffe no if he asked to return to God of War or Twisted Metal, Jaffe is just to lazy, but Xbox shut down Blezinski, completely shocked me.

So, you're right, kinda, but that blood isn't there anymore, the soul of that team is gone so I don't think you'd get the quality you think that you would

Jin_Sakai65d ago

“Then lead the next Halo development with 343 assisting instead ... as well as leverage some of the other new acquired studios if possible“

Certain Affinity would be good but who knows what’s happening there. And I’d suggest keeping CoD studios away from the franchise unless you want Halo of Duty.

PhillyDonJawn66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Halo Infinite forge is a million times better. maps don't even look like forge made but look like actual dev created maps now

Neonridr66d ago

oh I bet, I just have fond memories of all the different things people came up with. I can only imagine what it's like now.

PhillyDonJawn65d ago

Hell yeah I remember the forge map toilet 😂 good times. Poo and paper everywhere

Blad3runner0067d ago

Don't get this mentality. Nothing is stopping these people from buying a PS5

I don't get fanboyism and refusing to purchase a competitors console.

purple10167d ago

I didn't used to get it, when is was Sega vs Nintendo, but now companies charging for online play, I dont wan to pay 2 separate subs, so you make a choice. also if you were to say invest in extra controllers for mates or whatever, I suppose it all adds up

anast66d ago

So, PS5 is the choice, right?

PhillyDonJawn66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

You're thinking too much into it. Forge creators make anything and everything. This is nothing new. Call of duty and other games have been made in halo forge as well. I was just playing Nuketown and hot potato 2 weeks ago lol (hot potato fun asf btw)

PaleMoonDeath66d ago

Not everyone can afford it mate, some have kids, families etc to support. Very close minded statement, adults don't necessarily care which machine, but money's tight nowadays, bring them Helldivers so we can get the damn Halo & Gears armour on PS5 lol

EvertonFC66d ago

I wanna see helgeist, scorpions, crimera, flying sting rays even some knack enemies etc

PaleMoonDeath66d ago

@Everton, DUDE! KILLZONE 2 HELGHAST SKINS! COULD YOU IMAGINE

Charlieboy33366d ago

They hate Playstation to the point of insanity....yet want a Playstation game on Xbox so bad. These people don't even make sense in their OWN minds...

65d ago
EvertonFC65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Agreed fella, same can be said for the playstation lot too though lol. We would all be over a gears collection, halo collection, Forza and ori

DivineHand12565d ago

I hope all the persons who agreed with you have an Xbox. Being a multi-console owner is the best thing for a gamer. When Palworld came out I could boot up the Xbox and play it there. I also just started playing Helldivers 2 yesterday and I am having a great time with it.

The gunplay is good so persons who are on the fence for this reason, don't be. The gunplay in this can go up against Halo, Destiny, The Division 2 etc. The gameplay loop is also good with a reasonable progression system. It doesn't have any RPG mechanics so don't expect to see numbers popping up when you shoot an enemy. Progression in this game allows you to unlock cosmetics, weapons and air drops from orbit to aid you on your mission.

anast66d ago

HA! All the while Xbox games are popping up in PS stores. To be honest, on day exclusivity will probably be gone and each will just provide a streaming service bundle, but why not have fun while we can.

crazyCoconuts66d ago

And to get you to pick one streaming service over another they would have....

anast66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

You do know how to ask direct questions, right? This is a serious question.

They would have different app features, different UI's, timed exclusivity, and different video game series (live action and animation). Also the streaming services would be tied to mobile phones of choice (Sony vs MS; maybe even Nintendo will get in on this, phone thing.) which have their own reasons for purchasing.

Of course this is in the distant future. They don't call me the Oracle for no reason.

crazyCoconuts66d ago

Exclusives... The answer was exclusives.
But, you being the Oracle you already knew that, didn't you?

anast66d ago

"one day exclusivity will probably be gone"

Yes. I am the Oracle. When this happens you can say I am right.
