>Halo is now on PlayStation AAAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!PlayStation won. Xbox is officially finished. Imagine how Xbox fans feel about this.
>more pointless remakesfuck off.
>>724114534Windows is Xbox. And now PlayStation is Xbox. Microsoft won.
>>724114534I've said this before, but this version is a bastard baby. I'm pissed that the Playstation is getting THIS version of my favorite franchise.When you love something, you should want to share it. And I do. But not this fucked up ass remastered, UE5, Jeet, ugly as sin, sprint having, wrong weapons havin', nerfed magnum, 32 round clip AR havin', dusty, too much fog, texture pop-in, no multiplayer havin', lookin' fuck of a mess.I urge Playstation players to not buy this and instead demand the MCC. Because this is an absolutely fucking atrocious version of a great game.
>>724114534Someone pls kill phil and his pajeet boss
>>724114534Do you think it's possible that the art direction will be even WORSE than thw anniversary edition? How will the swamp look?
>>724114534console wars are so 2000s
>>724114670Sometimes I feel like I should try new games instead of sticking to old ones, and nothing shuts that feeling up faster than seeing yet another remake of an old game.Seriously, why should I put down the PS2 and 360 when the industry believes those games are just as good as new shit?
>>724116253we've come full circle
>>724117414because gaming is more than AAA and AAA indies
>>724114534A decade ago this would've warranted a sticky
>>724117414>Seriously, why should I put down the PS2 and 360 when the industry believes those games are just as good as new shit?i still play my ps2 games regularly, but i also play new games all the time, at least since about 2017 anyway. i dont think its that companies think old games are better, theyre just easier money. most companies dont fucking care about making good/interesting games anymore, only making a profit. which is hilarious, because thats how xbox ended up in this situation to begin with, and now they've given up halo lmao
>>724114534Is it even possible for shitbox players to cope at this point?
This means Halo merch will shoot up in value
>>724114534watching consolefags fighting over scraps is hilarious btw halo was never good
>>724120619You're the vegans of gaming
>>724120619lol pc just gets console scraps these days, and it's all steam anyway. PC gaming has been dead a looong time
>>724120710Whatever helps you cope sonybro, you'll be back on top someday
>>724114534Who cares the IP is dead and run to the ground by 343, call me when they port the master chef collection (wich i doubt it will ever happen because they are incompetent hacks and took years to even make the pc version playable )
>>724114534It's over...
>>724114534>PlayStation won>still loses to PC and Switch 1&2
I'm from the future, it's Unreal engine slop and is going to be fucked up for years at launch just like MCC
>>724114534>campaign evolvedJust port the MCC. Nobody wants this UE5 slop.
>sprint>AI generated shitIs it even Halo CE anymore? Even the flood would reject this garbage
>>724120883PC gets everything in the end.
I ain't buyin Gaylo
>>724122147Port mcc? It's already on PC and has been for years.
>>724114534Where is Dead Rising 3 and Sunset Overdrive?
>>724114534Mictosoft owns most companies and they will be publishing games on Sony. Thay means Sony will pay microsoft for their games. Microsoft is playing 5D chess
>>724122208kek yeah no
>>724114534>PlayStation gets a rushed remake of Halo and a somehow worse Remaster of Gears 1>Xbox gets Helldivers 2>Somehow Sony won in this exchange Extra:>Snoys are now screeching for EVERY Xbox IP to get PlayStation versions because Sony 'graciously' let Xbox have Helldivers
Hardware shouldn't be locked down ecosystems anyway. They are all just computers and in theory could run any game at this point.
How long before the xbot suicides start?
WHY IS THIS NOT STICKY.THE END OF AN ERA.
>>724114534You're completely misreading the situation. Both Sony and Xbox lost. Because consoles are dead. Microsoft was just the first to start changing policies. Look at PS5 and tell me it's successful, though. You can't. You might be able to skirt by and say it sold a lot of units, but everyone knows it's shit with no games. It only sold because of brand loyalty and people are generally pissed off about the state of it.
>>724114534>even the retarded name reeks of jeet influence
>>724116253>we must be better lovers and share our wives, Chief
>>724117414Bro, why don't you play *other* games?Games that aren't remakes?
>>724121898>troonie tendie still latching onto PC
>>724123180>80 million copies sold>more revenue and profits than everConsoles are having an identity crisis but Sony is doing well right now.
>>724123708Sony is shit and only sold because people had expectations for it. Everyone here knows it. The reality is Xbox was actually a better offering due to GamePass but they fell behind because they didn't have the same brand loyalty. The PS5 is fucking garbage. Having big sales numbers only means there's 80,000,000 retards that can't think for themselves.
>Imagine how Xbox fans feel about this.Are there any left?
>>724116253now if only kratos could stop being a cuck in his own games
>Halo finally goes third party>Most people that would've cared over a decade ago don't give a fuck anymore and think it looks like shit>Not even /v/ can muster up much shitposting over itHalo is being thrown into the trash by Microsoft after this isn't it? They were likely expecting this to be some jaw dropping big bang of an announcement they had up their sleeve, only for it to be met with a whimpering wet fart that's guaranteed to not hit their sales expectations.
>>724124359it doesn't help that it doesn't even look good as a product
>>724122303Microsoft is dropping out of the console race. The only good part is that it opens up a spot for someone else to fill it. Sure as fuck won't be apple or Sega. It most likely will be a Chinese console and it will fail miserably unless they start attracting white and japanese developers and let them do whatever they want.
>>724124565Mouthbreathers will buy it anyways. The same game, for the third time.Halo campaign is copy paste dogshit and if you liked the flood you should kill yourself
>>724124834I don't see the japanese helping the chinese getting into the console game.
>>724126389I've always had either playstations or nintendos so I've never played Halo. For guys like me, it's a good opportunity to keep not playing that shit franchise.
>>724124359someone should really just make a cool new sci-fi FPS series that isn't Fortnite or a hero shooter.Literally when was the last time someone tried? it's a weirdly dead genre.I guess Doom, which is not a new series, but may as well be.
>>724122303Other way around.To publish a game on a console, you need to first pay a lump sum to Sony to submit the game, then Sony will take 30% off every sale.
>>724127562>Literally when was the last time someone tried? concord lmao
>>724116253
>>724129071Concord was a hero shooter
>>724116253mastercuck
>>724122804Because nobody cares The writing was on the wall for almost a decade
>>724114534>Xbox fansthere are none left, they're all dead
>>724120619damn lil bro eatin straight in bros face
>>724127562>Literally when was the last time someone tried?TitanfallCoD also had that 3 year string where they went sc-fi and normies cried and shit their pants over it
>>724114534>Xbox now officially has nothingCrazy how we ended up here. This all started because of Don the Con.
>>724129993they have scalebound trvst the plan
>>724122804The console war ended with a whimper, not a bang.
Original CE devs are not happy>You aren’t supposed to be able to take the Warthog up to steamroll the Hunters. I intentionally placed rocks in the way so you had to fight them on foot. When you can just smash the crates out of the way it wrecks the encounters.But the worst part? They put trees in the landing area of the WooHoo Jump. Lame.@game_fabricatorWhat have they done to beloved B30?!>“Keep getting them checks.” Remakes and remasters are soul-destroying and I feel for any dev working on one. They can’t win and even if they do they won’t get credit. Bad situation unless you are getting paid $$$.https://x.com/32nds/status/1981927318752039135
>>724123860Sadly yes. I'm an Xbox owner on his way out but I still visit Xbox sites. Half of the comment from rabbid fans who always push the narrative of the month. Honestly it physically hurts to read it but when something major happens I can't help myself. The current posts are on the vein of:>akshually Xbox is is best and it is over for Sony and Nintendo>if you go to PC you are still in the Xbox ecosystem so they won>Halo CE remake will be so good and I will play it in Game Pass while subhuman - everyone else - need to pay full price for it>the next Xbox will sell "millions" because people won't abandon their digital library>also Xbox is PC and PC plays everything so Sony lost hahaIt is like I'm in another god damn dimension.
>>724116253This cant be fucking happening.Kratos is a switch?
>>724114534picture paying $500 for an Xflop Series X
>>724130178I remember wedging the warthog past the rocks way back in teh day using grenades
Bring Rare replay to pc you motherfuckers!
>>724114534
>>724114534is that even a flex after 4, 5 and the tv series?
>>724114670>>724117414Its literally because people like you think the old days were better and everything new is bad.So why not just resell you the old shit you have rose-tinted goggles for? You will not enjoy the new shit because you are incapable of seeing it for what it is. New players will have rose-tinted glasses for the new shit, just like you did for the old shit.
>>724130178Reminds me of the Crash remakes
>>724130178>juke hunters and 1 shot them with the pistol in 2 seconds?
>>724114534I just hope my cousin goes through with his promise from 2004 when we we're playing Halo 2 at his house on Christmas. He said if Halo for whatever reason ends up on a PlayStation console in the future he'll commit suicide. I'm going to be just like Cartman eating those tears and feeding him some shit in his next chili bowl first thing in the morning when I give him a call to ask him if he's seen the news. It'll be just like Bobby Roode's old theme song, "GLORIOUS!".
>>724132716>lol everyone think the past is bad>muh rose tinted glassesyour point doesn't stand anymore considering we're in the midst of a spiritual and racial warthese remakes are psychological warfare against us please i beg you to at least understand that
>>724114534Ps5 is going to be the biggest selling console in 2026 thanks to GTA 6.
>>724133402Just checked the famitsu thread and all they are talking about is GTA 6 and they unironically think it might come to the switch 2 lmao. They know it's gonna be the biggest game in this century and they are afraid of what could that mean for them kek.
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I BOUGHT MY XBOX FOR NOTHING!Sorry to say, but you've been grifted.
>>724122804The death of Xbox isn't worth a sticky, it was expected. When PlayStation dies, there won't be a sticky for that either. Snoys will crash out while Nintendo and PC gamers will just be gaming without a care in the world.
>>724129993Phil kill Xbox, stop blaming others for his fucks ups since like 2016.
>>724114534>Playstation gets its first gamesThis is a historic moment.
>>724130187Xbots are more mentally ill than Snoys
>>724114534>Xbox is officially finished.Yeah, but not because the game is on Playstation, lmao.
>>724135403Were you not there for Don's "If you don't like it, just buy Xbox 360 lol" interview?
>>724114534>Xbox is officially finishedThe writing has been on the wall for at least a year, you're late.>Imagine how Xbox fans feel about thisThey mostly no longer exist, the ones that do still exist have become as mentally ill as you Snoys if not significantly worse than you guys.
>>724136018Don is the reason the first few years of the Xbone was filled with exclusive games, Kinect/always-online or not, he also gave the Xbox a hardware uniqueness that their first party games would utilize that no other platform had. Phil gutted all of that and left Xbox with a massive drought during the Xbone era, he killed the meaning of the Xbone, pushed Gears of War because he thought they should just repeat the 7th gen and they'll win, Phil killed the edge of Xbox more than Don did and shifted Xbox from the hardcore gamer and casual gamer to the woke progressives. After killing the bone and turning the meaning of it to mean power and nothing else, he made a day 1 subscription service that damaged their sales, ported everything to PC, gimped the Xbox Series X with the Series S, didn't let Sony screw the PS5 over with pricing, didn't care enough to show off the power of the Xbox Series X instead showing all of its games played on PC, released nothing in 2022, didn't give a shit about quality while giving out blank checks to studios just to take forever to release broken games, wanted to destroy gaming with a monopoly. Phil was the piece of shit that killed Xbox and I will hear nothing about anyone else doing it.
>>724122208>PC gets everything in the end.
makes me wonder what was the point of buying activisionthey wanted COD to be exclusive on xbox and to make people buy their console, now they do this lolwhat's this strategy called? it looks like there's not a single thought put into strategy of how xbox should operate and what business decisions to take, this shit is so random and stupid im not a console player so i don't really care but this really makes me curious about how decision making at xbox HQ look like
>>724114534End of an era
>>724137467Gamepass, it's all about Gamepass
>>724114534Halo is fucking garbage now. You'll love it.
>>724120619Nobody cares about Halo, this is capturing the flag. Snoys getting the ultimate xbox killer app on their consoles is basically parading on Xbox's grave.
>playstation fans don't get MCC>instead they get this slopI'm so sorry...I'm so fucking sorry...
>>724137725You really think they won't port mcc over in the future? It's literally free money
>>724130187The mental gymnastics owners of any platform go through to justify their purchase as the ultimate one is profoundly sad. Imagine revolving your life around technology and berating everyone outside of your tribe by any means necessary.
>>724133090that's called skill and is working as the devs intended
>>724137815Infinite is probably first. its a free game already, just open the pool up for more cash shop money.
>>724137815Why would they, they can re-release each one in remake form over the next 15 years. MCC would cut into that.
Would SEGA exiting out of consoles have warranted a sticky?
>>724117269>SAAR WE HAVE CREATED THE BLOODY GOOD GRAPHICS OH YESIt's all wrong! It's fundamentally all wrong!
>>724114534>Xbox flagship series goes to PSUnlike the PS flagship series that never went to other platforms. Name the series.
>>724137974considering how quickly it happened, and both /v/ and SEGA attract autists; yes.
>>724137815They won't, MCC died the moment fans didn't want microtransactions in it, they're leaving it behind.>>724137876Infinite is dead and buried>>724137974Yes, they were like Atari
>>724138074Syphon Filter? Legend of Dragoon? WipEout?
>>724138074The most recent God of War and Last of Us games are available on PC. Death Stranding 1 is on Xbox, while the sequel remains locked to PS5.
>>724138157Alive, my dude, not long dead. And series, not singular games. Also, flagship, today.Syphon Filter 1, LoD and Wipeout 3 are all amazing games though.
>>724138376In a just world they would be flagships.
>>724137467They've always been reactionary. I truly believe they've never had an actual set path forward for the business. If in doubt, just rely on the old faithful of buying up what you can and hope to starve out your opponents.
>>724138631>the old faithful of buying up what you can and hope to starve out your opponentsYup, straight outta the 90s playbook. Fuck I hate Bill Gates for that, he singlehandedly crippled tech forever.
>>724114534Aren't Sony planing to bring their games to both Xbox and the Nintendo Switch? looks like console death to me personally. But because most people on here own playstation consoles they're not seeing the reality of where the playstation brand is potentially up for being devalued soon enough.https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/28/video-game-exclusives-dying-playstation-plans-new-xbox-switch-ports-23766383/https://www.tomsguide.com/gaming/playstation/sony-wants-to-bring-playstation-exclusives-to-xbox-according-to-new-job-listing
>>724114534>PlayStation won.https://store.steampowered.com/franchise/playstationstudios/Nintendo won. If they gave a fuck about third party games PS6 would suffer the same fate as Xbox.
>>724127786It was Sony begging for Halo not the other way around. There was no fee
>>724138859Nintendo haven't made anything worth a damn since the Gamecube.
>>724138921Snoygger cope. And I'm not giving into the Nintendo jewery, mind you. I will never pay more than $59.99 for a videogame, but I'll always praise Nintendo for never cucking out their IP.
>>724138972Sony haven't made anything worth a damn since the PS3. The last two generations of vidya has been absolutely fucking woeful.
>>724138972based, if some retard ever takes charge of nintendo, the industry's officially dead.
>>724139021True, PS4 was still good though, until they ruined everything right at the end by whoring out the majority of its games. But PS3 was definitely another kind of soul.
>>724137467fundamentally consoles are kinda retarded now.indie games are way cheaper and can usually be played on shit pc's.games look and perform better on PC for the most part.games cost way more to make now (and also charge more) and are unsustainable for being exclusive to one platform outside of Nint who don't bloat their budgets to compensate for this.xbox and sony are basically publishers first, console manufacturers fifth at this point.
>>724137467>what's this strategy called?Pure retardation. The motherfuckers had everything in place to start to dominate this industry in the next 10-15 years, but they chose to throw it all away in exchange for some short term profits.
>>724139329consoles are only retarded because the two main manufacturers refuse to make them good, since that would take effort
even original dev hates it
>>724140248>grifter grifts for twitter likes
>>724138972they shat out a shitty infinity run game with Mario on the iPhone. they collect millions off revenue from multiple Pokemon phone games. Even Pikmin got sent to the phone game mines.
>>724140314Mobile isn't competition. And that was Nintendo's desperation move after the Wii U fiasco. No one said PlayStation was dead when they were making Uncharted: Fortune Hunter or Run Sackboy! Run!, only, and rightfully so, after they cucked out Horizon Zero Dawn to PC.
>>724138839There is a difference between going all in like Microsoft and doing it cleverly like Sony. For example Sony is doing PC ports but later. They do online games but later. They can do this because Xbox killed itself and they are the only real choice if you want a "high powered" system. This also leaves them as a "cheap prebuilt" option still. If someone just want to play Fifa Playstation is still the easy option. People say it is over for Sony for decades now yet they are still raking in the money. Don't lump Sony and Nintendo together with Xbox because they are not breaking records all the time. Only Xbox is dying. Sure, nobody can tell what the future holds but there will be a handful of Playstations before they need to think about throwing the towel in. Without direct competition Sony has a lot of time to revamp their strategy.
>>724140527>For example Sony is doing PC ports but later.This doesn't matter, at all. It causes the exact same damage. Some FOMO retards might buy the game at launch, like the GTA normalfags will do, but the majority will just wait and pirate it.
zoomers dont care about this francise
>>724140527>Only Xbox is dyingno one is dying, both xbox and playstation have died a long time ago.nintendo lives, but they've gone full jew.
>>724114534end of era.Welcome to the new era.
>>724114534Mario is next
>>724117269It's sad how bad this looks.
>>724140621It matters because the brand is positioned to be the only home console brand. It still has the convinience and relatively cheap price compared to a prebuilt. What MS is doing is sacrilege because the lose the only differentiator between them and the competition. But when you don't need to differentiate you can go multiplat.Sony is selling the PS5 around the same as the PS4 despite the insane pricing and barely any exclusives. This strategy could work at least short term but the growth is a problem. Don't assume everyone waits and pirates, FOMO is a hell of a drug and major releases make insane money on console still.
>>724114534Playstation won't exactly last long either.
>>724140835retard
>>724132716>Its literally because people like you think the old days were better and everything new is bad.I mean that's literally true in some cases. 90's cartoons for example are still better than anything made now.
>>724141479Most profitable console Gen btw and with GTA 6 I can only think of how much money they are making before the release of PS6.
>snoys are celebrating despite sony going third party years ago???is that really all that's left, cripple fights between third party devs with no exclusives?
>>724141925Snoys and Xbots are in a sad state
>>724116253Kratos: Prepare you buttyhole big guy, you're next. Remember that I'm greek
>>724142516>>Kratos: Prepare you buttyhole big guy, you're next. Remember that I'm greek
>>724142596
>>724140527Sony are dying but are kept afloat artificially by all of their sports games doing gangbusters. Most of their console adoption rates are largely inflated that were determined by people buying it for sports slop. They may never be dying officially, but their success is not related to any reason that is healthy in regards to competition or in any objective way that improves the industry.
>Halo>but its 343 making it in unreal with AIHow does Phil Spencer still have a job? is it a big tax write off to offset AI losses?
>>724140654based zoomers, let this millenial slop of a franchise die
>>724122516>worse Remaster of Gears 1i played the game it was fine wtf are you talking about
>>724114534I am a bit glad microjeet is so unapologetic about making as much money as possible, they don't hide their insatiable greed and I respect that more than hiding it behind woke activism shit or pandering to certain groups in society. if only they would apply the same strategy when making the actual games.
>>724116253>Not offering his wife to master cuckThat's not Kratos. He's better than this.
Xbox Studios is supporting the PS5 better than Sony is
>>724141531seething nincel
>>724114534>Halo is now on PlayStationAll part of a plan to eventually sunset the production of Xbox hardware by MS
>>724117269>>724138026>>724140867can some1 explain to me why it looks bad
>>724144463>Nintendojitsuback to your bing bing machine with no games lmao
>>724129728Concord was an hero shooter
Nostalgia of 30 year old kids aside, the whole halo franchise is dated as hell, the setting is cool and nice to explore, yet the whole gameplay requires an overhaul, in the more understandable sense it feels like a bad destiny inspired game now.
>>724114670I'll keep getting them if it keeps pissing you off.
>>724117414>getting your opinions on art from an industry
>>724137467SAR XBOX WILL BE NETFLIX OF GAMING FOR 2020 YOU WILL KNEEL BLOODY BASTARD
>>724141925Unfortunately, yes. Snoyggers just pretend PC doesn't matter now instead of spamming NEVER EVER goldface memes.
>>724114534Do Xbros even exist anymore?The were kinda a thing until Xboner and then just vanished from the face of the earth seemingly.
>>724117045Have you seen Phil? He looks like he's actively killing himself, or someone is killing him
>>724144570It looks like a generic unreal engine tech demo, there isn't any quirk to the art style, it's just photorealistic for the sake of it. The design of forerunner architecture in the remake looks like triangles popping out of mountains yet again, 343 never learned.
>>724149043High stress ages you, and he's in a high stress job
>>724149105but I think it looks like 99% of games nowadays
>>724149105>there isn't any quirk to the art style, it's just photorealistic for the sake of itisnt that what the vast majority of modern grafics-focused gamers want thophotorealism at all cost
>>724149105>it's just photorealisticNothing about it looks photorealistic
>>724140654Jesus they put almost as much money into the marketing than they did into the AI model and outsourced shitjeets from across the world
>>724149728NTA, but in pursuit of le photorealism the art style just lost all of its distinctiveness and uniquenessjust like the vast majority of AA-AAA titles nowadays
>>724149728What was their goal here?
>>724149784Did you even read what I said? This shit doesn't look photorealistic at all, it's just caked in way too much graphics tech.
>>724149894And did you read what I said? I said IN PURSUIT of it.
>>724122237The remake's gotta have some gay stuff added for the playstation crowd, it's just business
Gaystation fags are just gonna have sloppy seconds and cope about how they've missed out on halo
>>724149946>in pursuitThey're not pursuing it at all. Take an actual fucking picture of something or go look outside, real life doesn't look like this. It's not style, nor is it photorealism, I don't know how the fuck to describe what it is they're pursuing, but I know it's neither of those things.
>no splitscreen deathmatchi'll just play og halo on xemu thanks
>>724130178Guarantee that change is because a playtester whined about not being able to drive their Warthog where they wanted>nooooo it's my player agency I want to drive the truck into the bad guys nooooooooo I don't WANNA get out and walk!Fucking "gamers" these days are coddled babies.
>>724140654They shouldn't.
>>724149885Why does it look so bad?
>>724150019>sloppy secondsNot even seconds, thirds.
>>724144524Genius.
>>724138921GameCube was actually shit compared to NES, SNES, and N64. Even the Wii beats it by being at least something interesting. As someone who had a GameCube back then and played Sunshine, Wind Waker and all that, I'll never understand why people treat it like one of Nintendo's best.
>>724114534HALO CAMPAIGN REDEEMEDTOTAL XBOX DEATH
>>724116170>Microsoft won....the game of losing.
>>724150023Graficsmaxxing IS pursuit of photorealism at all cost (look how realistic the water looks!! and the foliage!! and the reflections!!) and that is exactly what they're trying to do, just look at it. They're bad at it, yes, but that is definitely what they're going for (because they have no idea about how real art style elevates games to be timeless)
>>724150073Because a genius named Timothy Dean Sweeney wanted to make money. He devised this sneaky little plan: design a software that will facilitate the industry to churn out video games faster at the detriment of doing the work yourself. His indian engineers, whom he fired right after because he HATES his employees, made sure that any low IQ indian hands would be able to push the cheapest of dev work. Then they got this idea of making his engine tap into New Tech by nvidia forcing everyone to get rid of their pristine and perfect 1080s to have the New Tech RTX from the 2XXX series and onward. Today we have unfun video games churned out at a faster rate with the help of indians from across the world that aren't polished or optimized. Every AAA game comes out with stutters, pop in, screen tears and unfathomable dithering. Thank you Timmy.
>>724114534One step closer to a Switch port and Chief in Smash
>>724150367Ray tracing felt like such a forced value proposition when it came out. Nowadays it's the standard but seeing "Compiling shaders" on every new game pisses me off now, why isn't it just called "Loading" like every other game in existence?

Unreal Engine 5 is not the issue here.The issue is the laziness and failure of the developers to tailor the engine to a specific art style. Ask yourself honestly why that is.How is it that games running on Unreal Engine 1 or 2 or 3 could look unique but the ones on 4 and 5 look like carbon copies of each other?The year of release matters. We had competent passionate devs before. Now we have DEI devs, and you need to open your eyes to this problem.
>>724149885So blurry, especially the water. The funniest thing is that the launch version will most likely look even worse, lmao.
Sega only went multiplatform after Dreamcast got discontinued despite everyone knowing it's going to die while Xbox gave up after Xbone and has been losing games since then. Sonic the Hedgehog is officially cooler than Gaylo

>>724116253>the average meme is now a porn fetishGooning went too far
This doesn't really matter anymore. Exclusives have been dying for ages. Just look at thr ps4 boxes on your shelf and how they say "only on playstation" and compare that to your ps5 boxes and they removed that print because we all know neither Ms or Sony make exclusives anymore. By this time next gen you'll be able to play all ps/xbox games on either console either via steam or an official port. Consumer decisions will come down to features and preferences, and maybe performance. But ultimately this doesn't matter. Helldivers, halo. Friendly suggestion: just buy a PC
>>724150592Microsoft insists on heavy contracting as well. There's no identity partly because the project is a cum rag for the uninvested.
>>724114534>microsoft wins a cultural victory>"lol playstation won"
>>724150948No one is winning here
>>724150673Next gen xbox chips have already been leaked and are already being manufactured. They'll keep the box around but they'll let 3rd party boxes like Asus and whoever else be the main bulk of xbox sales next gen. I'll admit these new amd apu are looking very strong for gaming. They've come a long way.

>>724151583Your prize is... This?
>>724116982Thank you sharechadIn exchange you get the last of us Which to be honest I do apologize. You wanna give us something really nice but the best we can offer is this pretentious Oscarbait game. If it’s any consolation, I wish we could give you InFamous instead.
>>724130187This is every single fanboy for a platform. None of the news, hell, none of the games matter at all. Once somebody picks a side their side is somehow always the winner no matter what's actually happening. It's complete insanity.
>>724150553Bloody benchod basterd!
>>724151583Nintendo are the only ones following tradition. Playstation are literally doing the same thing. Explain Helldivers on Xbox. Explain why I can play the entire Spiderman franchise on PC.
The creators themselves are the biggest haters.
>>724152053Why didn't they consult the OG devs or even watch the Bungie vidocs on how they made B30? Gene Park got to play the game before anyone else and admits that they shortened segments that Bungie carefully designed to not be burnt through with ease too fast. They killed their 30 seconds of fun loop and for what?
>>724152189This about sums it up
>>724152189Microsoft has bad blood with them and has been telling 343 not to interact with them for a long time now. Especially Marty who became an enemy of the industry when he beat Activision and nu-Bungie in court
>>724117269I'm at the point that I can spot AI art and assets instantly and this is definitely it. Expect the credit roll for this game to look like a Bangladesh phone book >>724124359MS didn't take care of the IP. It has too many bad games now and the books are probably some of the most poorly written literature in history.

>>724152436>I think you end up hating the original and wanting to undermine it somehowThis is 343 in general regarding Bungie's Halo, literally every last thing they've done to the IP has been to undermine what made it great.
>>724152436>... and wanting to undermine it somehowThe destroyed dev also wants to destroy the game. I bet they explicitly avoid input from any actual fan and just pick up random johns off the streets. If they're fans of the thing, they get thrown out until they find someone who doesn't care enough to let them deface a classic for a quick buck.
>he is happy Sony will do even less than it is currently doing due to the lack of competition
>>724116253It's over for Xboys. They can no longer satisfy Cortana's needs. She's left their playerbase for bigger and better things.

Yes Sony won now you get to play some slop ai woke remake of a 20 plus year old game

>>724153261Stop moving the goalposts, filthy snoy. PlayStation is as dead as Xbox.
>>724116170Whatever helps (you) sleep at night, Xbot.
The cutscenes look pretty but they fucked up the mood at the start by removing your first person view and how foe hammer doesn't say "TOUCH DOWN, HIT IT MARINES!"
They were stupid for not doing this earlier, xbox fags (if there are even any left) would just continue playing MCC.Snoys, on the other hand, will buy the exact same game every single fucking year until the sun explodes regardless of quality.It's free money.
I WANT STARFIELD ON PS5!!!! I don't care about Halo. Fucking shit Microsoft.

>>724114534It feels like the old traumatized faggots are coming out of coming out for this. Nobody cares. Halo has been dead since reach and the only people talking about this shitty remake are ps fags attempting to "own" their past bullies.
>>724152404HAHAHAHAHA well first the shat up windows now they're going to finish the job and kill linux. Thanks jeets. All you people are good at is flinging poo at each other.

>>724116253Snoy wonned
>>724140224I mean, since the PS4 every console now is just a glorified PC with fixed OS and parts. Might as well just make a downloadble Microsoft/Sony's OS that work on normal PC parts at this point.
> Unreal Engine 5Blurry shit with AI upscaling that makes the game look and feel worse.
>>724140224>games look and perform better on PCLMAO. PC is in the worst position its been in, parts are retardedly expensive and there is no fucking optimization.
>>724140621lmao you dumbass, sony has been doing this shit since the PS1, FF7 was on PC, RE was on PC. They've been using timed exclusivity to huge success since literally the very beginning. That's why the PS5 is the most profitable gen for them yet.
>>724147991you own nothing, steamie. Call me when you can actually have your games physically and not be a gay digital cuck
>>724114534I think exclusives are gay and this isn't even a bad thing but it is kinda cursed even to me.
>>724156895By all accounts the final fantasy exclusivity deals were flops for square enix. They've flat out committed to bring FF games to xbox going forward that's how bad it was for them. Playstation profit margins are awful this gen, in the single digits. And that's after massively increasing prices across the board for hardware and software compared to even 1 gen ago.
>>724156895Neither of those are Sony IP, STFU.
>>724157158I was a bigger snoy than you'll ever be, lmao>owning gamesI don't play modern games anymore, the industry is dead, I just emulate everything up to the Switch.And I do own everything that I pirate.
>>724144570the forerunner structures in halo 1 were monolithic and this just looks like generic modern scifi slop
>>724156895no one's talking about timed third party exclusives, retardno one gave a shit that ff16 was a timed exclusiveit's games like god of war, horizon, tlou, uncharted being on pc that killed the brand.
>>724157657Oh, GoW 1-3 are on PC? Sly Cooper? Jak and Daxter? LPB?>>724157436dumb nigger>>724157430>awfulThey've made the most money yet and haven't even outsold the PS4
>>724157583No, there's still good games coming out from smaller companies and I can still own them physically thanks to consoles, unlike shitass PC that was made soulless by steam. They killed my beloved big box PC releases and replaced them with owning air. Hooray.
>>724158009They've massively increased prices.
>>724158009Nice rebuttal, faggot.Why are you only naming games from a time when PlayStation was alive and well? No, those aren't on PC and fortunately never will be, just like all others shouldn't. Too late to save this piece of shit brand now anyway, the future is Nintendo and PC.
>>724158423and the profit margins are lower than before, even though they have millions more potential customers and shit is a million times more expensive, but we making money bro, trust
>>724151879I find this worse because for another platforms you can always have an excuse. They have a future and rake the money. For Xbox there is nothing. There are bad Xbox news and worse every month. Nothing positive. At all.
why is everyone surprised, when Gears of War got a PS5 version 2 months ago?
>>724158587The profit margins are awful but revenue is higher than before because they increased prices so much. They've been in single digit profit margins all gen.
>>724114534Xbox is already finished so no one cares.
>>724152053>>724152189Jaime is not happy>You aren’t supposed to be able to take the Warthog up to steamroll the Hunters. I intentionally placed rocks in the way so you had to fight them on foot.

I've always failed to see Halo 1's appeal. I played and 80% of the game is the same rooms and hallways copypasted ad nauseam.
>>724160983Jaime is a treasure.
Xbox is pretty much finished. The only threat to snoy is Valve's upcoming steam console. Microsoft is all in on AI, they dont have the money to sustain Xbox losses.
>>724160983BASED AND REDPILL>>724161667valve console will be niche at best
>>724161770>valve console will be niche at bestthats what they said for the steam deck and now its the direct competitor to the switch. Sometimes Valve's ideas stick, they're the only company that can fill the xbox void.
>>724114534Halo? More like Gaylo, amirate?
>>724162462I bet this is the average consumer's reaction, those who would jump up and down if Halo had a battle royale mode during the 2020s craze
>>724162251>its the direct competitor to the switch.Lolwut. Steam Deck has sold what, like 5-10M? Meanwhile Switch + Switch 2 will probably do 150-200M by the time it's over.
>>724160983>Sprinting into the shaft vignette so fast that @MartyTheElder’s music transition doesn’t work properly is the perfect ending.One more reason to be against sprint
>>724114534I was interested untill they ruined that spike gun and made the whole game easier for the new Low IQ gamers. Fuck this shit.
>>724137467It's called a constant stream of new executives with new ideas.Modern corporate structure has been bloated by effortless valuepumping that's detached from reality and can no longer implement a long term plan.
>>724162701That's solid numbers for its first iteration. Its still by far the only handheld that could confront nintendo's dominance. Every other device such as asus ally or msi claw comes nowhere near close.
>>724162251>direct competitor to the switch>its lifetime sales get obliterated by switch 2 in less than a month
>>724162251Steam deck sold as much as the n-gage despite all the insane shilling
>>724114534Halo needs a total reboot. Do we agree?
>>724163216Anybody attempting a total reboot would still try to modernise and place their own spin on it, at which point it might as well jsut be its own thing.We have to accept that stories end, and are unique to their time. We have to let it go.
>>724163609But why does Halo need to end? CoD and BF are still going. Plenty of franchises from Halo's time are still going.
>>724162701>>724163140>>724163205>muh salesmost inflated metric honestly, the nintendo cult s.0.ybase buys 10 switches on launch and scalpers buy 5 times as much to resell.
>>724163750Narrative and atmosphere are critical parts of Halo, you cannot have Halo without them. CoD and BF are different in that their narratives and atmosphere are largely interchangeable. You're not still playing the adventures of Soap and Price twenty years on. At best, Halo can still have spinoff games dealing with other conflicts and characters in the setting, but even in this, it's difficult for people to accept a Halo game without Cortana and the Master Chief, but not impossible.
>>724163750Because Halo is a story oriented game. And the story ended like 3 or 4 games ago.The biggest failure of the Halo developers was the failure to allow Master Chief's story to wrap itself up. They should have just move the series' focus to other characters and aspects of the universe, instead of retconning the original plot for the sake of keeping the chief.
>>724117269https://www.youtube.com/shorts/IQHjhBq7cwE
>>724164073Bungie did take that direction with ODST and Reach, but 343i did not get the memo, they didn't respect Halo 3's ending, or really Halo in general.
>>724163758>most inflated metric honestly, the nintendo cult s.0.ybase buys 10 switches on launch and scalpers buy 5 times as much to resell.
>>724114534I dont get it, Microsoft gets money from Halo on ps5, what exactly is the issue here?
>>724117269jesus dude
>>724122257Port it to Switch 2 and Linux (and macOS)
>>724164292>I don't get it, my wife gets pleasure from Jartavius, what exactly is the issue here?
>>724122237Didn't Chad Warden die? I heard he got raped or something
>>724164292>Microsoft gets money from HaloThis. Funding 343 to continue taking turgid shits on the franchise is abhorrent.
>>724116982Why don't they just port MCC to playstation wouldn't that make more sense?
>>724163609just name it something else but keep the main themes>you play as a supersoldier defending humanity>multiple alien races held together by crazy cosmic religion>AI mommy gf guides you through ancient alien superstructures that are actually genocide machines>some kind of infection that the machines are designed to destroyall of the details can be completely changed as long as you keep the spirit of the original, the problem that people have is when you use the same names of the characters and change the content. that's why everybody either loves or hates Cortana design changes or Chief's armor changes.just make new characters that fit into the archetypes of the old characters, change their personalities a bit to change relationship dynamics, change visual style, etc.Halo Reach is the perfect example of how you make a Halo game withouth damaging the original, it baffles me how 343 could never grasp this, they just added characters and fucked up our view of the old characters. In Reach the only interaction with Chief is viewing him as he enters the storyline of CE, absolutely perfect continuity.we have no idea what we have lost
>>724116253All those Kratos cuck threads... All that work... 24/7 day in and day out... and for what
>>724137467>they wanted COD to be exclusive on xbox and to make people buy their console, now they do this lolWhy are you people this retarded
>>724130187>if you go to PC you are still in the Xbox ecosystem so they wonThey're always like this, Sony fanboys too. They think Nintendo will start losing any day now
>>724164706can't rape the willing
>>724114534I dont give a shit about Halo coming to gaystation, just means more population for the game.My issue lies in the remake's existence itself, im fuckin ill from remakes.
>>724114534>Campaign EvolvedJust kill Xbox already holy shit.
>>724138839>Aren't Sony planing to bring their games to both Xbox and the Nintendo Switch?There was the job listing leak, yeah. Most likely their older tentpole games will come to Switch 2>>724140527>Sony is smart because they're drinking the same poison but slower
>>724161115Yup, it's not that great of a game at all. Introduced two weapon limit garbage, too.
>Halo arrived on PS5 before Bloodborne
>>724137467they give up
>>724124834It’ll be Tencent wearing a beloved has-been’s brand name as a skinsuit like what SAIC did to MG in the automotive space.But hey, everyone wanted a new “Sega” console, right?
>>724132716The new shit is garbage, like literal garbage. AAA has more jank with the indie feel than actual indie games now.
>>724114534>PS5 doesn't even get the MCC just a soulless remake of the original>doesn't even include the multiplayeronly PCfags are winning from this
>>724132716>So why not just resell you the old shit you have rose-tinted goggles forbecause the grift is obvious and im not buying the demakes? uh oh stinky
>>724114534Every device is an Xbox now chud. We are like colonists spreading our games to all corners of the gaming world.
>>724117269>the pelican can't enter the control room nowLMAO are they fucking retarded? Jaime is already trashing on these pathetic game designers at Shitlo Studios
>>724164073>Because Halo is a story oriented gameIt's a wonder why it's a shit series. You make a game to make a video game, you don't make a game to be a movie.>They should have just move the series' focus to other characters and aspects of the universe, instead of retconning the original plot for the sake of keeping the chiefIf they didn't have an idea of how continue Chief's adventures, a literal blank slate, they should have just ended the series and stop making games>muh popularityNo one gave a shit about Halo's boring lore outside of Chief shooting aliens. This overarching story crap that must have an ending ruined many things, not just video games. Things before the 2000s were so much better it's unbelievable.
>>724163216This is a total reboot though, they're throwing out all of Bungie's lore for their own, kek.
>>724161667Yeah, PlayStation is on its way out. Valve making their own console is a way to get Xbots and Snoys to get into PC gaming with little hassle. Valve knows what they're doing. This industry is about to be owned by Nintendo and Valve.
>>724160983>says Halo needs a reboot>bitches constantly when it actually gets one>claims about the buttons you press along with a mechanic that can be disabledIt's a wonder their fanbase is so mentally disabled when the devs themselves act just like their fans.
>>724116253Someone add the Circle over her head.
>>724169102Xbox is already dead, kek
>>724165105Halo Reach damaged Halo, you Bungie dick rider
>>724114534ReminderOutside of marketing and hype, Halo was never popular
>>724174746Halofags and their shitty devs always thought this series was popular, it really wasn't. It got a bump during the 360 days because Sony screwed up on pricing, that's it. Even Jaime's complaints about the remake are a joke because you can play the game just like the original if you wanted, there's nothing stopping you from doing it. Ex-Bungie devs are just acting like classic Halo fans and trying to find something to bitch about because they no longer have careers and can no longer make anything of relevance because they got so deep into early 2000s politics and think we give a shit about some War on Terror video game in some brown ass desert.
>>724175040>always thought this series was popular, it really wasn't. It got a bump during the 360 days because Sony screwed up on pricing, that's it.>multiple series launched and died in obscurity on snoy platforms just to try and get a glimpse of the heights halo was reachingYeah, alright bud.
>>724174746Halo carried the Xbox brand hard early on. They likely wouldn't have even made it to 360 era without the success of the Halo series.
>>724116253Master Chief is the better man here
>>724175293That was more of those shitty series trying to larp as Halo stand-ins instead of being their own thing. why the shooters of the 90s lasted because Doom was actually good, Halo was never good so, it never translated well with other series which is why most quickly dropped copying it when COD came. Those shooters failing wasn't a testament to how good Halo was, but a warning that Halo's popularity wasn't going to last if something better was made and it didn't take long before Halo got replaced, permanently.
>>724175293>the 360 daysEveryone played battlefield and call of duty. People only bought halo because of the excessive marketing and pandering, but didn't actually played it
>>724150417I'm surprised he was never put in seeing we got characters like Cloud and Sephiroth. The japanese also liked Halo.
I don't know how common of an opinion this is but FPSfags have always struck me as being Sanic levels of autistic when you really observe their mannerisms
>>724175715This is true and the numbers actually show this, why did Halo 3 sell 10+ million but only had around a million or less playing the multiplayer?
>>724116170>im bleeding making me the victor
>>724175370The discrepancy in Halo's sales number compared to Fable and GTA is a major red flag.Marketing, marketing, and brainwashing... empty sales. That's it. That's Halo.
>>724175981Sony has the same mentality with their games being on PC
The only reason microsoft is porting their games over to playstation is because the opposite happening would require the playstation to have games to port in the first place.
>>724175715>People only bought halo because of the excessive marketing and pandering>Implying COD's MW trilogy didn't have marketing out the assPeople played COD and BF more overall because there was a new one every other year, even those games were getting dropped in the blink of an eye whenever a new one came out
>>724172742The pelican was always too big for the hole iirc
>>724114534FACE IT, XBox has been coasting on HALO for almost a quarter of a century.Also, why the fuck would you buy a console unless as a status symbol? I got a mini-pc and have an infinite amount of possibilities for gaming at my disposable while being able to do just about everything else I could want that a console can't.It's sad when people need to define themselves by what corporate products they buy as a replacement for their personalities!!!FACT!!!
>>724123604>Seething for hearing the truth
>>724137815No halo studios is running on fumes, if they actually had any juice in the tank halo 5 would be on pc by now
>>724177293Halo 5 is why they're on fumes. You're never getting your Halo Other H on PC or any platform. Halo 5 will die on the piece of shit known as the Xbox where it belongs.
>>724177978>Halo Other Hheh

>>724150880Nah, I won't do that. PC had zero interesting and recent exclusives.
What was the point of Xbox buying so many developers?
>>724150592>He fell for the DEI scapegoatIt's a general problem happening across industries, including ones where DEI is and always has been a non-factor. The problem is macro-level fucked-up incentives that make addressing and closing out every kind of debt - both technical and financial - too costly. In fact, it's too costly NOT to accrue debt over time. One affect of this is that institutional knowledge sloughs off over time, and another is that dealing with the problems that come up because you're constantly reinventing old functions makes it impossible to innovate.

>>724140654I don't know why I should. The gameplay looks slow and not methodical tactical slow but awkwardly slow. Also why do the guns look and sound like buzz lightyear weapons with projectiles that just hover around? I don't see what this game offers that Doom doesn't.
