Halo Infinite On Xbox One Won't Be "Second-Class," Says Halo Boss

It would be pretty important too and fair that the XB1(X) version of the game can be freely upgraded to the 'XB2' version. It sucks that I had to re-buy the Skyrim game for the XB1 after I ditched my XB360.

Id say if you are still playing on the OG xbox...you're going to have a bad time

It's coming out for PC. No need to even think about Xbox or Scarlett. :)

The Xbone has been second-class this whole generation.

I need official specs for the nextbox to see if it’s worth getting rid of my One X. Halo always looks great so I’m not worried about visuals.

It should be interesting xbox scarlett vs pc with Halo infinite.

Oh it's coming for the one? I feel less like a sucker now.

Yes.... yes it is

I think having different games developed would be interesting, like Double Agent, where the Xbox version was far superior to the 360 version. But that takes effort and money bags.

Why bother bringing it to the awful ddr3 eSRAM bottleneck Xbone console at all though??? The only benefit is the million or so other sales you will get on the game bringing it to that console, a console that people will have jumped ship from EVEN MORE by the end of 2020. The game is already being brought to 800 million Windows users, that barely a couple of million will "play" for 5 seconds anyway, so they have that part covered. Why compromise a game by so much.

Then lets look at PlayStation by comparison. Up until May this year, everyone was so impressed by the visuals on that game that people were saying, mostly Xbots though, "there is no way that is a PS4 game, DS is a PS5 game". The exact same can be said about Ghost of Tsushima after its mind blowing E3 2018 ingame reveal. The same people are saying the same about The Last of Us Part II too even though they were wrong about Death Stranding. At least Sony has it covered that people already think their games are next gen lol. So if their games like Ghost of Tsushima and TLOU Part II end up with even more bells and whistles on them with a PS5 enhanced patch at the console's launch, then at least you were already blown away by the current gen 2013 PS4 console version to begin with.

Nothing about Halo 6 looks impressive whatsoever to date, regardless of it being current gen/next gen or even if it was 8K footage.

There's the PC version, the next gen version, the X1X version, and then the Xbox One version. So yeah, it's going to be fourth class.

It's a cross gen game. We all know what to expect from cross gen games. It's gonna be a last-gen game with shinier bits and bobs on current-gen.
Lame.

I know this may be an unpopular opinion, but I can’t help but feel new entries in big name franchises that are making their debut on next gen consoles (let alone being the flagship title for the brand.) should not be compromised in any way due to trying to meet the demand of current existing hardware.

Games like Metal Gear Solid 4 on PS3 blew away gamers from every vantage thanks in part to utilizing as much of the new tech at its disposal without having to limit anything due to the previous generation (PS2.).

While I do think it is a smart move from a business standpoint to engage in this practice I don’t think that by “putting a cap” on this next entry (I know they say they are not but c’mon…) it will garner the same level of praise that say Halo 3 did when it first came out.

More than any gen before it I feel that the PS4/X box One gen has held on to the previous gen at all costs (Remaster/HD remakes/Ports to PS3 & 360.). I know it probably won’t change with the introduction of the PS5/Next Box but I would love to see a return to form to what made the PS3/360 gen so great. Namely, not holding onto the past but forging ahead at all costs with exciting new IPs and perfecting long standing franchises as they make their way into the new generation of gaming.
