Gears of War & Halo Were The Most Boring Part Of Microsoft's Show

Gears of War and Halo are easily Xbox’s biggest titles throughout the years. Since Halo 1 on the original Xbox, it has been the company’s flagship title and both franchises have been at pretty much every E3 since their creation.

I personally enjoyed the halo teaser. Looking forward to seeing more.

Re watched the trailer. I'm very impressed with the Slipstream engine. The trailer was running real time engine at 60 fps.

oasdada2180d ago

this was supposed to showcase the next xbox console and still death stranding on ps4 manage to look way better than this.. just look at the faces man

I really, really, liked the ninja theory game! like a good cartoony beat em'up. (great stuff) i also used to LOVE halo, but now being a PlayStation fan, (my brother has an xbox we play together sometimes) I STILL think they failed to show ANY gameplay whatsoever that can best God of War or Spiderman, this is a BIIIGGG problem, even there new games cant compete with the top gameplay of what Playstation has already put out this/last year,...

I had absolutely no interest in Ninja theory's game, looks like a F2P game with a cringey "shove everything into one" art style that I simply hate. Was disappointing since they are one of the best studio purchases known for making cinematic story driven games. But they have a bigger team working on another project so I'm banking on that.

Halo trailer was enough to get me excited but definitely too little, they obviously are waiting till next year to show it. Would've been great to see some actual gameplay but it would spoil the reveal for next year to go along with Scarlett.

Gears 5 was supposed to be the perfect reveal since the campaign is supposed to be way bigger, I really don't understand why they're hiding it so much, definitely disappointed at that.

Sony is miles ahead in single player games both quantity and quality wise, but they still have nothing like Gears and Halo with huge MP components. It would've been so good to see them, wasn't excited with the show.

Blu3_Berry2180d ago

I don't understand why they showed a CG trailer for Gears 5. I was really hoping they would show its single-player and for whatever reason they did not. Was pretty bummed out about that.

Livingthedream2180d ago

They showed gameplay last year, om thinking that's the reason

TK-662180d ago

Yeah the Gears 5 presentation was really questionable. I understand what they were trying to do with Kate but they didn't succeed in what they were aiming for.

Vandamme212180d ago

The show was boring period.

Poopmist2180d ago

The CG trailer with Kate's head was cringey, but the improved gunplay is interesting.

"The story would have been expanded through yearly campaign DLC, so players would not have to wait for another mainline Halo title." ~ this seldom works
But I still think, they should've tried 1 last Halo sequel based on that slipspace engine, that they invested so much on but made for current gen only, before going all in on UE5.

Maybe they were replaced by AI.

Call me a cynic. But it seems that not even the people working in the studio know what’s the status of Halo.

They were going to add a BR mode, which then got cancelled, but now it’s a sequel to infinite, but may be a reboot of the first game?

It may be normal for development to be like this as super Mario galaxy started as cut content from Mario 128, which then became a tech demo, which became pikmin, which eventually became Mario galaxy.

But 343 or whatever they are called now-certainly don’t have a good track record so it makes me wonder what’s happening.

porkChop193d ago

The Halo: CE remake is a separate project from the Infinite sequel.

Knightofelemia193d ago

Maybe all the staff got laid off.

TheColbertinator192d ago

I'd be much more comfortable with the future of Halo if "343" or whatever they call themselves now were no longer in charge of the series.

WTF!!!? Can we add Tic-Tac-Toe, maybe Connect 4? How bout the card game Go Fish? Microsoft should shelve the Halo Franchise for 10 to 20yrs or sell it clearly they have no new ideas to take Halo forward and putting a "Hey gamer finish the game for us" mode and we can make more money off it and we can fire some more game Developers that we really don't even care about.......Microsoft is done even trying to make Halo a game worthy of even a little bit of our time.
