    Console Wars are dumb and pointless. Each platform offers very good things. In terms of specs, the difference is barely noticeable. So it all comes down on what you prefer. Xbox has Halo and Gears Of War. Two franchises that I absolutely adore. So I will get a Series X because of them. Playstation has God Of War and Demon Souls, and thats why I''ll get a PS5 as well. Again, it all comes down to what you prefer. No console is better than the other, it is all subjective to your own personal preference.
    What you cannot deny, is that Sony can spit in the mouth of their users and they will swallow without thinking. And that Xbox knows that, and thats why it is targetting a broader demographic with PC and Gamepass

I love and have played halo all my life and it makes me so happy that these games are not being forgotten no matter how old they become.

      As much as it pains me to say this, I don't think the Bungie era will ever return. However, I'm pretty confident that Infinite will be by far 343's best Halo of their trilogy, and it will definitely be one of my favourite games of 2021. Just from hearing the scores that they've posted on the Halo channel gives me confidence. Just listen to "Reverie" and "Through the trees" and you'll see what I mean. Hail to the Chief.

    _"If every dope game the Series X has can be played on the One, why should I upgrade?"_
    I feel like this is your primary issue with Xbox, that the new gen doesn't offer games you wouldn't be able to play on the One. That's fair. Meanwhile you praise Sony & the PS5, but gladly ignore the fact that Spider-Man MM, Horizon 2, etc are ALSO coming to the PS4, so what reason do you really have to "upgrade" to the next generation of playstation, by the same logic?
    The amount of flack that MS got for still supporting the One, while Sony were dishonest & berated MS for this decision only to do the EXACT same damn thing is honestly pretty absurd. I'm not denying that Sony has better exclusives overall (although I think this conversation will change dramatically in 2 to 3 years from now) but the PS5 objectively doesn't really offer anything you can't play on other consoles either. You have PS exclusives that are playable on the PS4, you have remakes or timed exclusives. But I guess they have the Black Ops alpha so yay PS5, I guess? Like anyone gives a fuck about a CoD demo.

      Also, that last trailer for PS absolutely did not show "all these amazing franchises that can only be played on the PS5" (or the PS4 for that matter). Most were old games. Some were multiplats. Very few were actual PS5 exclusives. If those small teasers got you hyped (which is totally fair), why are you so annoyed by MS showing only small teasers of what's to come? They have already shown MORE trailers for future exclusives than Sony has.
      Again, I don't mind these standards or that you prefer PS or anything like that. But you don't apply these standards fairly & I honestly think your decision here has been highly influenced by your general disappointment with Xbox from the last generation, instead of looking objectively at the new generation without thinking of the dark days that came before.
      You don't mention ANYTHING of Sony's anti-consumer behavior lately. You claim that Sony copied many of Xbox's "quality of life" services, but that's simply not even remotely true. Sony offers no alternative to Gamepass. Xbox Live is still widely superior to PSN (just look at things like internet speeds). Xbox offers BC across all generation & hardware, Sony does NONE of that. And so on.

    To be honest, the last time I was really excited was when the PS2 was being released. The Japanese games like Dead or Alive, Ridge Racer and Final Fantasy brought something unprecedented at the time. The internet hype was barely taking its structure back then and my only access to veritable info was through printed magazines and maybe some gaming websites that were barely beginning and there was no RUclips. The later console generations had a lot of hype and not that much new to offer when it came to the wow factor and I'm afraid that even these days it's not getting better.
    And even though the new consoles bring in more power, it will always be in the hands of the developers to give us something that we'll be truly excited about. If you are experiencing a feeling of wonder when it comes to the new consoles, I envy you.

      Only problem is they will not be ready for the console launch. Which is a big deal for early adopters and giving people a reason to plan to buy an Xbox Series X in the future. Flagship titles still sell consoles, only have to look at Nintendo Switch's success to see this.

Given how successful they are with just games, it makes no sense Sony can't and hasn't done the same with just games. Japan's focus and dev formula for games can't be underestimated for the longterm.

      It's always been about numbers but it's all BS for marketing. I'm on PC and the only thing I care about with my PC is the GPU, CPU, RAM, and other essential parts but Xbox/Sony markets their consoles with stuff that doesn't even matter because they will still be under powered and game developers would rather sell you graphics rather than game play. Nintendo is the only console that tries to sell you games. If a game in the future runs like crap on my PC, I can just turn the settings down on the game so it runs much better whereas on Xbox or Playstation, if a game runs like crap because the developers prioritized graphics over smooth game play, you're SOL. I remember playing GTA Online in 2015 (2 years after the Xbox One's release and GTA V's original release) and the frames per second would drop to 20 constantly if there was too much going on, and that was somehow acceptable in AAA games

    p.s. i gave up playstation after lifelong patronage and endearment, soured by their financial agenda and the dwarfism imposed by xbox's consistent innovation and accommodation to the player. xbox is pushing for a more universal gaming experience, while sony is too traditionalist in this sense and prefers separation for economic competition. the playstation is much more profit-oriented and users not as indifferent to this as others will have a lesser experience as a result.

      Exclusives drive sales it’s your own damn fault if you saw more value in Xbox series x but would rather have PS5. I want to play Halo Infinite when it comes out but I have a PS5 and that makes me want an Xbox series x which when I have the money they just got a console sale

      @@mitrimon youre missing my point. it doesn't have to be this way. if things were centralized and less profit based everyone could enjoy everything rather than having to choose. im not saying it's possible or feasible, im just expressing my distaste for current consumerism practices that -i know- will never change. thanks.

      I'm a PS fan and I honestly think they should get more exclusive games, I like to imagine that eventually both parties will run out of studios to buy and just make every game for every console. That would be awesome lmao.

      So Xbox (Microsoft) owns them all

      However, I fear what will happen if Microsoft does change things with those 2. Should be left alone and focus on fixing other studios.

    Microsoft's showcases might as well be an ad for building a PC at this rate. You have to wonder if any of their games will stay exclusive to console next gen.

      Have you been living under a rock lol. Lots of people can't afford/don't want to game on PC and that's where consoles come in but of course the option is there for PC gamers because PC and Xbox are not in competition despite what some people may have thought.

      Most people who buy console buy them for the price and the convenience, I play on PC too but I can't play RPGs on PC, I don't know what is it, I just get distracted from game too easily. It all comes down to preference, will 4k 60 Fps make that much of a difference? If so, go for it. I love the approach MS is taking because they know their audience, like I said before most people choose prince and convenience when buying Consoles, so they will not lose that many sales on the console market

      @@BryanAFC Yes but if you are so attached to consoles, why not buy a PS5? There's no reason to own an Xbox anymore because there are no exclusives. If you want Xbox games, build a PC. You'll get better performance, and if you "sail the high seas" a PC is cheaper in the long run. So, the Xbox is pointless.
