Biggest Xbox mistake is easily handing halo to 343
10000000%
Agree
BASED
Yes
One they still haven't rectified because reasons.
Crazy, microsoft just nailed it with the 360 then blew it so hard with the xb1
Until the Kinect came out and they just gave up.
They didn't nail it with the 360. The red ring of death was a result of Microsoft pushing the 360 out the door before it was ready. Not only did it alienate their core audience but it also cost Microsoft $1,000,000,000.
Halo is literally the only reason Xbox still exists today
@@volerasphere
That and Microsoft has deep pockets. They lost what, 4 billions with the og Xbox? For any other company that would be their first and last console
hmm i'd say they screwed up with the 360 i was put off by how they handled things with the non pro version and in general everything they did, naming convention of 360 lead to the stupid name of one. just name it xbox/xbox2/xbox3 or just something else entirely
The main thing about Conker wasn't really that it looked bad but it just strayed too far from the original artistically in many areas of the game and was also censored and y'know... that was kind of the whole unique thing with Conker, an innocent looking creature in a (mostly) innocent looking world but with gore and foul language!
OMG, Thank you, i thought i was full of crap because a lot of people, who indeed were, told me the Xbox Conker remake wasn't censored, or tried to twist my mind further in that the N64 original was censored to begin with! I only played the N64 version through weak emulation on my 2004 laptop back around 2005-06 and didn't touch it again till the release of the Rare Replay collection. I never got far in any attempt of Conker, but i did always remember from the far distant past literally seeing and hearing the Great Mighty Poo swear in his fight! I truly was never too interested to look into this matter before reading your comment, um...LOL i guess? I do admit that i was really interested in picking up the Xbox remake indeed for the graphics since Conker and other animals had realistic traits like fur and better use of dynamic atmospheric lighting that looked much better from early screen captures of the N64 release!
@@marukuanfuni I played both and the Xbox remake is by no means a bad game, it's just a shame mostly that a lot of aspects was changed but it can very much still be an enjoyable experience
Live and Reloaded is absolutely gorgeous... But I feel like the animations dipped just a little.
Honestly, lar is my favorite version of conkers bad fur day. It's a better game, but bad fur day is a funny game first, gameplay second
30 fps is fine…. On a 7” screen. 😂
I remember beating the entirety of Clone Wars Republic Heroes in a single day because of the Games for Windows live prevented me from saving the game lol
Not that it had anything to do with the crappy Games for Windows live debacle ( I think...), i had the same issue with the last official Unreal Tournament (Unreal Tournament III) release on windows (from Win 7,8 and 10)! Unless there is some checkpoint in the campaign saving system that I never reached! I never played the ps3 or XB360 version so i don't know! At least i could play custom and random bot tournaments outside of the campaign. With my campaign experience i would get to chapter II or maybe even III, have enough of the game and quit, and return starting from the damned beginning!
XB1 also happened to come at a time when some big titles like CoD were playable at 1080p on PS4 but only 720p on Xbox, so Xbox 720 would have been a particularly bad name for the 360's successor.
The quick resume glitches are certainly annoying but they are rather rare.
The only one I ever get, although I will say it’s pretty consistent, are the online glitches. Halo infinite, outsiders, etc. - quick resuming these games would break online multiplayer every single time til restart
I'm an Xbox guy through and through, always have been, but God damn does the quick resume really suck. I would rather restart my game (which takes 60 seconds with an SSD max) and have no glitches than quick resume a game, make progress, then some game breaking glitch happens and I have to restart anyway. It's always not worked well for me no matter what game. Online functionality doesn't work right with it most of the time too.
I must be really unlucky them
It really made me smiling seeing Peter Molyneux talking about Project Milo. Man can't tell anything without lying at least a little.
49:57 Quick resume works very consistently well. It will literally say when it's available for a game (and it is for most), the only times where it doesn't work is for online games that require you to always be online. Which is obviously hard to do, when for example, your console is not even plugged in.
And you can actually manually remove games from Quick Resume, if it really bothers you.
The problem is that you can't even access an app without it going into sleep mode.
@@deathtrooper2048turn off sleep mode ya goof
It’s a game console, not life changing or life saving
@@deathtrooper2048my Xbox NEVER goes to sleep in USE
@@lIlIZ3ROlIlI You can't turn off quick resume.
This is a great take on time periods. I lived through all of this. I hated the DMR part of it, living in a small town in NY. You nailed the AI part of xbox. I'll tell you MW2. The game chat was crazy. There are so many bad words at the same time, with ppl talking over each other. As someone who bought a day one xbox one. I have a lot of memories of me and my gf say "xbox turn off" or xbox turn to channel 25(espn).
I got my 360 late to the game. When I went to buy it at Target (where my buddy worked) they were sold out of the Pro, so I had to get the Arcade. In the end it was a wash on price as they had hard drives on clearance and I needed an ethernet cable. It ended up being fun watching people's reactions to the white drive rather than the typical silver. It red ringed on me just before the extended warranty window expired, so I got it fixed on Mr. Gate's dime. It worked for many years after, even when a lightning strike to the apartment building took out the HDMI port (and my router and a few other things), I just switched to composite and it kept going! I sold it years back, but regret it now.
Quick resume is amazing. If you primarily play single player games its great, not having to go through the whole boot up and loading screens when booting up a game and getting straight back into the game from where you left off rather than whenever your last checkpoint was is great. There is definitely some issues using it with games that constantly require internet access to play but for the post part the feature works perfectly more than not. Its a bit jarring when i decide to switch over to my PS5 and forget i cant just instantly switch between games or just right back into a game as soon as my console starts up
I HATE Quick Resume. It constantly breaks with games, results in Xbox 360 games needing to just reload anyway, crashes on every online game it works with. It’s so damn annoying.
@jstyxx4110 seems to vary by person (and even by game, in my experience). For me, it also normally goes immediately to where I was in the game, as if I just paused it, instead of waking it from sleep mode.
Imagine being laughed at the room by one of your enemies and then immediately taking one of the things important to that enemy
Their biggest failure is failing to create another exclusive worth playing besides Halo. That franchise is the only reason Xbox still exists as a brand today.
And even the "worth playing" part was dropped by the time Xbox One came out lol.
Microsoft cancelling three Xbox One exclusives (Phantom Dust Remake, Fable Legends and Scalebound) is probably the main reason why the console didn't attract much customers and their first party line-up being weak compared to the OG Xbox and the 360.
A key point as to why Xbox Series games are not running at their full potential is because of the Series S and developers having to make sure it works on it too as Microsoft promised all Series games would work with the S. I think it definitely hinders developers being able to go all out on utizling the Series X capabilities.
Not only that but they made the Series S less powerful and optimizable than the series X which made no complete sense they really did made it harder to fully optimize their games to the highest level.
And to compound it even further, out of both xsx/xss, xss is the majority of console number sold out of the two.
Than have modes for series s and series X take a page from pc and develop graphics configurations for series s and series x
It seems Microsoft didn’t learn from Sony’s mistake when they announced that they were shutting down their PSN store and backpedaled on that after severe backlash from loyal PlayStation fans.
360 Netflix really pissed me off because they bumped up prices of gold using 3rd party features and apps they pushed as an excuse saying it cost alot to maintain then immediately discontinued Netflix parties next big update.
I sure hope Milo is in this video. The most brazen, outrageous, bold-faced lie Microsoft ever said at E3.
Biggest mistake Xbox has ever made: not firing Phil Spencer
Not firing Don Mattrick sooner was their biggest mistake. He nearly killed Xbox and now Phil is trying to makeup for 6-7 years of mistakes. He was behind the Kinect which was the beginning of the downfall of Xbox. He was also behind the Xbox one being a tv dvr and having drm.
@@alec2456 are you serious? Or just really dumb? Phil took over in 2014, he’s been head of Xbox for almost 10 years straight now, and the brand has only gotten less and lesser relevant. The Series consoles are selling significantly worse than the Xbox One. The Series consoles launched with literally no games. Under Don Mattrick, the XB1 actually had a good launch line up and it was selling only slightly behind the PS4. Now PS5 is outselling 4:1! Don never “nearly killed” Xbox, that’s just lies that Phil Spencer worshippers like to push, it has no basis in reality when you look at sales and games released. Since Phil has taken over, Xbox has gotten significantly less games and sales have collapsed. These are objective truths. Phil killed Xbox, they’re about to become the next Sega, but you fools can still keep trying to pin it on Don an entire decade later 🤦♂️
Videos like these really tell me why I don’t think highly of Xbox anymore…
Had a Xbox One and Series X for a while and tbh they're disappointing consoles. The 360 may not have been the best but it did have some really interesting games.
@@MoonlightBelladonna i agree, the 360 wasn’t perfect but man it had some of the best games ever
But I still prefer my big ass VCR lookin ass OG Xbox
This is a great video, glad to see you branching out
Man there is basically nothing more nostalgic for me other than the Xbox 360 startup sequence.
Of the consoles with multi-platform titles, I was always a Playstation guy. Although not by choice, since I originally desired the 360 as a kid, but got a PS3 as a gift instead and got hooked through that. I only recently got a 360, so I could finally play its exclusives (along with some of the OG Xbox games), since it's retro now. Unless Microsoft does some serious course-correcting in the future, I don't see myself ever getting the newest Xbox console, if it doesn't offer anything different from what my Sony and Nintendo consoles, or even a high-end PC, already has.
God of War 3 changed my life, I was team Playstation from that point on.
This is the same case for PlayStation now. The only truly unique console is Switch.
If you really love OG Xbox and 360 then I implore you to get a newer Xbox. It’s insanely amazing how good those old games look in native 4K, insane how fast they load, and being able to quick resume those games is awesome/mind blowing lol
I forgot about the hololens. I remember seeing a news story where it was placed on an ISS resupply rocket, so the guys on the station could mess around with it or something. They didn't get to, though. The unmanned rocket blew up after takeoff. That's the last thing I heard about the hololens.
I remember wrapping my 360 on a towel 😂
Microsoft replaced mine twice.
I had no idea people complained about the xbox cable length...it was really long compared to the game cube.
Yeah, I remember it being really long and the first one to have a breakaway connector close to the plug to prevent tripping damage. I didn't buy my Xbox until Splinter Cell came out so maybe the short cable was only on release units?
If there's one "mistake" I missed from the Xbox was the Snapping system. I thought it was really useful.
Same, I used to use it all the time to watch videos while playing games. I’m sure the current gen consoles could handle it too
If they doubled down on it and worked on it, it honestly could’ve been a staple feature going forward. Not a significant feature but one that would come to be liked and well known on the console
Never get why they had to cut that off.
Good job I know this video was old good job I really enjoyed it you brought back a lot of memories of my childhood thank you keep up the good work
It's 2024 and this list needs to be super appended, lol.
To this day I still can’t believe what they got away with when it came to Kinect. 90% of it was a flat out lie and they knew this. Suprised nobody sued for false advertising
Who's here after today's news?
Me lol
😂
I used to like the connect when my friend came over and play NBA start flipping out and get a technical foul. That was pretty cool.
God the fact that in editing you kept the mistake of labeling both 360 models the same price drove me nuts
The Xbox 360 was so ahead of its time. It was like having a PC hooked up to your TV. That analogy only got more accurate as time went on with the Windows and Xbox integration stuff. I remember playing Skyrim on my PC while in an Xbox Live Party with friends playing Halo or CoD on Xbox. We take features like this for granted nowadays but Xbox Live really innovated a lot of how we game online today.
bruh literally not a single person outside of some journalists that dont even play games complained about the way the girls were dressed in doa
22:38 what's the thing on top of the xbox in that shot?
The initial Xbox One announcement was just ahead of its time and I saw the potential at that time. Yes there were issues with it though
43:51 ElDewrito, while it can't be worked on anymore, can still be played, although because of people thinking it's gone and the release of MCC, the playerbase has pretty much died off with at most around 10-16 players on a day.
Before MCC released, there was almost always around 100 players on at any given time, now its basically those that mostly only like mini-game type games since mini-games in MCC kinda suck because of forge being far more limiting in MCC.
4:10 Saw that commercial 8 to 10 years ago and necer thought of it till now. Had no idea it was an xbox commercial.
We know that elevator rides are just glorified loading screens, but sometimes they are part of the worldbuilding. Like the "elevator ride" at the start of BioShock when you first see Rapture. Also, whether glorified loading screens or not, elevators are a great visual way to show the player that they are entering a new area.
What is going on with your audio going in an out? It's quiet then loud, then quiet, then loud?
Damn this video is awesome. Another awesome rocket sloth upload
The fact that Xbox can market their console for 4K 120 fps and 8K without any backlash goes to show how broken the laws in our world are. You can say what ever you want to gain popularity and increase sales, even straight up lies and get away with it.
PS5 is the same. Look at a PS5 box. They advertise 8K 120 fps.
@@threefiveseven Infact PS 5 box only advertises 4K 120 fps, but good try. 8K is mentioned as well but not as 120 fps
The RROD wasn't caused by cold solder joints. It was a design error in the GPU which allowed for pliability of "fill-in" material, which was meant to stabilise connections, at normal game playing temperatures
well nintendo kind of doubled down on shooting yourself in the foot when launching a console with the WIIU.
I’m convinced that Phail Spencer is a PlayStation double agent. 😂
Yeah, I agree that the Xbox One definitely had a messy release. I also think they bought rare to spite Nintendo. 😂
I remember when the Kinect came out my gym teacher said he was going to buy one and let us play it on the last day and someone asked "why?"
I've been an Xbox gamer since 2001 when I got the console that Christmas with Halo CE and DOA3. It's interesting to see how it's changed. OG Xbox was kind of weird in that it was a powerful console and had a lot of PC ports and whatnot. 360 was the sweet spot. Xbox Live Arcade and Xbox Live itself were groundbreaking and I still play some of those XBLA games today. All that said, the One launch was bad. Don and his team nearly killed the entire brand with all that always-on, DRM, mandatory Kinect, TV TV TV, bullshit they pulled. Phil did a lot to right the ship, but it's still not perfect. There's still not really any killer app exclusive game on the system, for example, and I get the criticism that if you have a gaming PC you don't need an Xbox. But for me, I like all the backwards compatibility, Game Pass is a great service, and it's still where most of my friends still play.
I was an Xbox since 2001 too. Became an expert at fixing RROD on the 360. But the MCC being broken on release convinced me to sell my XB1 and I haven't been back. I'll just use GeForce Now to play Starfield.
This video aged really well
There are more and more that have come since this video lul
3:14 they had the similar for PS2 (the DVD addon) because I bought one myself, memories
The ds2 is by default a dvd remote which the xbox didn’t do until the 360
AND they got rid of the ability to upload your DVR recordings to youtube after they got rid of the SNAP feature.
It really does seem like the series x has been a colossal failure this far into its lifespan. Microsoft can't put out a single decent AAA game for it YEARS into it's cycle. (Starfield is coming up, but this is Bethesda, known for blatant false advertisement, games that just do not work on launch and 76, which had so much broken with it and so much false advertisement that a new scandal came out about it every single week for like 8 months. I want starfield to be good, but they get no benefit of the doubt until it's in players hands and its word for word what was promised without exaggeration.)
The console just straight up is NOT as powerful as they advertised, that or coincidentally not a single game on the platform is made to take advantage of it. The damn thing can't run games seemingly any better than the xbox 1 before it. Hell, again, not only can microsoft not put out any good AAA games for it, the games that do get released on xbox all have meager performance at best in terms of frames and graphical quality. And this is after no one being able to get their hands on it for a year into it's lifespan. This console is so far away from what was promised and is seen as a clear lesser by most to the point of being considered false advertisement on what this console would be by a handful of the community. I don't have a horse in this race, but Microsoft has been a completely shit company over the last decade as far as ANYTHING gaming goes. Just look at how they killed off their flagship IP so unceremoniously and unapologetically.
Alot of people are hoping they get blizzard so they can light a fire under their asses and make them do something decent with their IPs for once. I personally want starcraft revived instead of the unofficial death it's in now, but look at halo and tell me Microsoft is in any way competent of making sure the developer teams they own do any work at all.
That was much bs.. thanks. 😂
@@dusermiginte4647imagine criticizing without a rebuttal. “I do not like your opinion and I disagree” thanks for that fascinating contribution to the conversation. 🙄 nothing they said was wrong.
@@dusermiginte4647try again. Nearly hafway through the Series X market lifespan and only 2 games built exclusively for the Series X and its hardware and those games do not even perform in any way that pushes current gen hardware capabilities.
They claimed the SSD will revolutionise gaming. PS5 was revealed to have their SSD performing faster, MS ditched the SSD promotion. Touted as "World's most powerful console" again, PS5 was shown to out perform the Series X in every category and MS changed their slogan to "World's most powerful Xbox."
MS bragged about their TFlop count, after Mark Cerny in the Road to PS5 event stated and explained very clearly how relying on Tflop count is a dangerous metric to base performance on, MS stopped bragging about their Tflop count with Matt Booty and Phil Spencer publicly stating that graphics dont make a good game, it's about how fun the game is when you play it. I agree with that statement for the most part, but this statement from them is contradictory to their entire promotional model where "power" and "performance" was what they initially declared is necessary for the industry to move forward.
I have an Xbox One used for my entire OG Xbox and 360 physical collection and Titanfall. I have zero incentive to own a Series X aside for a possible increase in frames on some titles, this incentive is not worth the $500 investment.
Starfield is the only title I am interested in, but I have enough PS5 and PS4 exclusives to still play, so maybe 2-3 years from now I may get it then. By the time that happens, PS6 will be on its way so I may end up skipping the Series X all together.
What about Forza Motorsport?
A lot of older games and some newer games do have shorter loading screens in the series x, of about a couple seconds, compared to the older consoles which would take a longer to load. I actually appreciate this feature when I get kicked out of a PUBG match and I'm able to load into the match within 20 seconds😂 😂😂
Is there a PlayStation equivalent video from you? Or a Nintendo one? Or a PC gaming one?
You forgot Launch Xbox One had DDR3 which is wayyy slower than Launch PS4's GDDR5 ram and cause of that, it ran worse and at lower resolution and couldn't keep with more demanding games in the later part of the generation
39:25 not a decent idea, u still have to wait until its fully done to get access to MP, Campaign, or whatever 3rd mode
Edit: 45:48 bring back 1 year gold
50:00 50/50 chance with some games that has smart resume features
Where is the positivity for eggbox mr rocket?
Honestly I miss the snap feature, it was probably my favorite non-gaming feature
Hey, what about Blinx: The Time Sweeper? Bah, he's a forgotten mascot, anyway.
43:50 Something I want to mention about Eldewrito. Microsoft didn't force them to shut it down, the team just couldn't make anymore updates to the game. After the team got that notice, that's when they did that big overhaul to look like Halo 3 and pretty much fixed every known issue. They essentially made their last update so good that they wouldn't have to worry about updating it anymore.
However, as the years went on and MCC on pc got more and more patches, all the people from Eldewrito jumped ship to MCC. You can still play Eldewrito, but you'll be hard pressed to find anyone on there.
"wild west days" full of underage nerds in their mom's basements. Is that how talking ish to each other on the Xbox Live felt like to them? 😂
Yeah, about 7 times out of 10 the quick resume works for me and I love that feature but there are definitely times in games where a reboot means NOT starting exactly where you left off that it kinda' lets me down. To what you said toward the end about some games running at 30 fps, it's definitely not a deal breaker for me but there are times that it's jarring. Like for about 3 months before Starfield came out I was playing the X/S version of Skyrim Anniversary and it was a beautiful, fluid 60 fps. Then I got Starfield and it was just such an insane feeling to see that this huge new flagship game (the one game I actually purchased the Series X for) ran at 30 when a game I've been playing for like 12 years was running at 60 and just totally outperforming a brand new 2023 game. I understand that Skyrim was nothing like this when it came out back in the day, but still. It was just a very weird thing for me. 😆 Nice video.
Unironically miss Xbox snap. Would listen to podcasts while playing Halo 5 - it was a different time.
I remember Achievement Hunter/RoosterTeeth did a video showing off how you could order a pizza with your XBox. I thought it was the coolest thing ever, and then i proceeded to totally forget about it and never used it once lol
I haven't touched Xbox since the 360 days. And might get the series x one day
My issue with conker wasn't the changes to the story, but the changes to its multi-player. All they had to do was remake it and maybe add some new maps. But the MP for Conkers was lackluster in comparison to the N64 OG version.
Bro I’m watching this video and my city randomly gets mentioned what the hell lol
You guys forgot to mention that they released the xbox one twice within the same decade. Does Xbox project Scorpio ring a bell? similar to Project Scarlett, I think Scorpio was just for looks if I remember.
Me when I hear the narration and instantly realize, RocketElijah is not this guys only channel: 🤯😵
Worst Xbox mistake: Misshandle franchises on its bag, they have a lot of properties they should keep their interest on, from the underrated Crimson Skies and Blinx from the OG Xbox to the entirety of Rare. Master Chief shouldn't be all by himself on the cover, Nintendo to this day still has prominent franchises showing on front and Playstation had a lot of that same back in the PS3 era with Killzone, Little Big Planet and such.
Xbox can't just ask to live peacefuly from Gamepass.
I want to suggest you make a Biggest Xbox wins and Good ideas video, but it would probably struggle to be 10 minutes long.
30:59 I remember this. I remember thinking how much of a brain-dead take it was especially being Australian where our internet connection is some of the worst in the world in some places.
I absolutely loved the snap features, I could play halo and watch football at the same time. I wish they would bring it back
I remember being able to play music saved to the Xbox during game play. Now that's impossible.... I don't want to download a music app.
31:00
Yooo I was not expecting a Janesville shoutout!
SAME I literally jumped lol
@Crailtep literally lmfao. Like what are the odds the city only 15 minutes away from me in little Ole Wisconsin would have such a shoutout. Its literally the Leonardo Decaprio pointing at the TV meme
I'll forever be amazed that my Xbox 360 never got the red ring of death. I sometimes left my 360 on for a week or more
Big Gameranx Jake energy from this narrator, love it 😂
Wait the OG Xbox have very long cables these are longer than any other controller I have. Only 3rd party ones had short ones.
Seemingly a little known tidbit about the TV situation of the Xbox One: it actually started on the Xbox 360 when Xbox struck a deal with Canadian telcomms giant Telus to bring their TV service to the 360 late in the 7th generation. From what I remember at the time it was only Telus that did this and it wasn’t even done in many other countries to my knowledge, if any (correct me if I’m wrong though). Us Canadian 360 owners always just ignored it so I’m not sure what made Microsoft think it needed to become the focal point of the Xbox One at launch, but it was pretty funny and sad seeing that
Phil Spencer said when he took over he wanted all game on all devices only the fan Boyz were holding on with hope.
Xbox lost the console war.
That commercial that got banned in the uk looks like it has the same font as ps3 and Spider-Man
The only games I really played on my Xbox was halo 1, unreal championship on XBOX live and DOA Extreme Beach Volleyball. Chicks and fun, casual gameplay. .. it was awesome.
RE4 could have been an Xbox game but when meeting with Mikami, they didn't have a translator and he stood up and left lol.
I can't believe people expected a $500 console to run at 4K 120 FPS 🤣
i went to future shop in niagara falls when i was a kid with my dad on christmas, he bought me the limited edition halo 3 xbox 360 and it came to like $900 CAD after taxes and he looked astounded at the price. still the best presesnt ever.
People forget that Xbox had free online for a time, UNTIL they commodified it as a digital service. They didn't open the floodgates to online and make people pay for it, that came later when they realized how popular it was.
Went from ps2 -> 360 -> ps4 -> pc. I enjoy gamepass in its current iteration, but I gotta say, Microsoft has really dropped the bag in terms of gaming since the 360.
I did use that pizza app to order a few times. Definitely was easier to just call but it was something fun and goofy at least.
I see why a lot of the goofy stuff was done away with. Not good to clutter the UI and menus, then spend money to upkeep them or maintain rights when it isn't profitable. But stuff like that was still neat.
When it comes to the quick resume works with single player games. I play a bunch of forza and it works perfectly. If you make sure to close your games out it won’t mess up
I kinda miss the snap feature. It was kinda nifty if i was achievement hunting and looking for a youtube guide
Probably the biggest mistake (I don't think) not mentioned was when Rockstar approached Microsoft before sony to have GTA 3 launch as an og xbox exclusive. And they turned it down.
I loved groove music. I thought it was way better than Spotify is now
That banned comercial of life is short - play more, actually played in Sweden extensively
Janesville should be getting fiber optics soon so we’re catching up
24:23 is that the cube man? The guy who made a cube app, said the last person to break cube would get money?
Same guy who made orginal Fable
Biggest mistake was thinking they could survive in Japan
Also Microsoft must have been smoking meth thinking that Nintendo wants Xbox Live and Game Pass on Nintendo Switch only to be told by Nintendo that they weren't interested in Xbox Live and Game Pass on Nintendo Switch.
Don’t forget them promising Minecraft with ray tracing a few years back on console.
STILL WAITING…
Ray Tracing is rather unnecessary for a rather simple looking game. It's like implementing an advanced Xbox One reflective texture on an N64 model.
Phil Spencer did so much damage to the Xbox brand. It is insane.
After the 360. It all went corporate and downhill. The great migration killed Xbox forever
