It may just be too far off to confirm anything, really. Who knows, it could be for "next gen" since it doesn't seem from what was shown to be too far along at all.

That being said, Halo being the flagship IP for Xbox, not being on a service like GP doesn't seem too far fetched especially if used as a launch title for their Next Box like Halo CE for OG Xbox which I think would be very smart for MS to consider.

Even if it was included, it's a game I would buy even if offered on GP. :P

Hopefully it stays this way and this is an indication that true xbox exclusives are making a comeback.

@ahmedkhan1994: Not really sure how the lack of play anywhere makes the game a proper exclusive. It still shows as being available on Xbox One and Windows 10. If anything, this could indicate that the communities for the Xbox and PC versions will be separated and no stats will carry over between them.

i get this feeling it will be a launch game for the next XBOX.

if they hold it from play anywhere it might be able to help push the sales of the next xbox during its launch time

Buy the game once and play on Xbox One or PC and progress and add-ons carry over to wherever you play.

That's weird. Sounds like they want you to do a double dip if you decide to play on PC as well.

@ahmedkhan1994: Those people are far in the minority. People wont be happy to have to go out and buy a new peripheral just to stand a chance at competing.

Seems like a mistake in the listing, can't image a good reason not to have play anywhere unless they weren't releasing it on PC, but they are.

Yeah, this. Still have a while before release, so I'm sure it will be.

I see you're still upset about the PS4 version of RDR 2 getting essential exclusive content

@NathanDrakeSwag: Lmao... if I had the choice between having the graphically superior version or the version with some extra shi*ty content that probably didn't make the cut for the final game so they re-badged it as "PS4 exclusive content", I'll take the technically better version thanks.

But hey, each to their own...

No "Xbox Play Anywhere" logo, but it explicitly states W10. It's probably not BC with past Windows versions. Though DX12 is compatible with W8 IIRC.

Or I guess just not cross-play, which might make sense considering the drastic difference between KB/M and controller.

Lol, how are we paying more?

And as I've already stated, give me the version with the better res/graphics/framerate anyday. Enjoy your extra saddles for your horse... LOL!

@hrt_rulz01: The graphics and framerate will more than likely be the same. A res bump will be the only real difference.
