Thoses teases (Matt, Morgoth) about games in development are killing me. I want to know more...
I finally started Hellblade for the first time, with headphones, and this is great. The work that's been done on audio and atmosphere Is incredible. Can't wait to hear more about Hellblade 2.

Well, fanboys are the same on all platforms, Xbox, Nintendo, Sony, PC.
I think that XBox fans have simply come to understand that by disattaching itself from a fixed specification $300-$500 box, Microsoft can grow its gaming business more organically and predictably, justifying much greater investments into gaming, which ultimately also benefits console-only owners. And if they ever find themselves wanting to play in different circumstances, they'll be able to play the same games on their laptop or phone with (hopefully) minimal additional investment.
If Sony fully embraces PC and streaming, its fans will eventually appreciate the extra options.
It's really sad to see Xbox won't go all in on next gen Fligh Simulator - Feature Episode 5 /s
The amount of work and money for future tech seems well spend. Also saw 343 put this high production value in their sound Team.

It's insane how they did both day and night soundscapes for so many different regions. Apart from looking incredible, it will sound authentic, too.
I always dream that one day Playground Games could use the beautiful Forza Horizon 4's openworld to create their own GTA like game. They could create episodic co op missions like GTA's heists in a Michael Bay action movie style. LOL
It's kind of weird seeing an open world filled with nothing, but like scenery. I know it's a flight simulator, but I still expect monsters to come out of the grass.
Since it'll be a GaaS title, I wouldn't be surprised if they throw in the occasional wonky event into it with monsters or some movie tie-in.
This is a little off topic. I asked this in the thread about it but never got an answer. Does the console streaming work on something like a chrome cast or does it have to be a phone/tablet. I'm trying to stream my Xbox back to my bedroom.
I would love a "realistic" GTA without the parody humor that feels increasingly rote or even cringy these days. Something more like an extended heist movie or crime drama.
Not much of an RPG in GTA, but i could also like the idea of a modern time rpg. Somekind of a undercover agent, and your infiltrate all the diffrent gangs, as you level up you get in contact with even more bad guys. And moral decisions about how much you participate in crimes or tell your chief etc. Kinda like The departed.
Still huge for a Flight Sim or game in general.
For me the project is so intresting because it is a evolvement, for Game Development, in regards to procedural generation of an relastic envoirment.
I mean from minecraft ,we went to No Mans Sky (12 People!), Star citizen and now also Flight Sim in huge scale. And Microsoft having that learning, building the cloud tools out of it, can open the next door for every XGS. Flight Sim does that with Machine learning and procedural generation of the 3d assets, you feed the cloud with images and get the right models, as you teach them how they should be vary, where not to place, etc.
Next step, designer has an idea, loads the artwork into the cloud and gets an arranged 3d scene or whole enviroment. In the end you could have a automated rating system, that if fails by being under a similiarity score or by manual request, that a asset piece missing. So a 3d artist get tasked to add it to the libary of models for the cloud to choose from.
In the end Studios can produce much faster prototypes, put much more ressources on the details and gameplay mechanics, etc.
Right now it only works with Android mobile phones, unclear whether it'll eventually work with Chromecasts as well, but they've mentioned they plan to make apps for smart TVs.
If you really want to though, you can stream to a PC hooked up to your TV via HDMI or to a PC and then use something like a Steamlink to stream that PC to your TV.
Android only atm. Uses the Xbox Game Streaming app.
Xbox Game Streaming (Preview) - Apps on Google Play
Play Xbox games on your mobile phone or tablet.
They still do have that Xbox to Windows 10 streaming using the Xbox Companion App on Windows. Could try that with a pc. Don't know how good it is in comparison though. It was ok like 5 yrs ago.
Thanks for the info. I'll probably just buy and all digital. Seems like that would be simpler
First time I see Sperasoft associated with Halo: Infinite. Interesting.
Big and Complicated are fun words to hear attached to Infinite. Hoping for the best!
I can't watch this atm, so can't offer timestamps, but thought it worth posting for those that can.
Ooooh
He basically said that right now, it's almost the same as the actual Xbox One OS, to the point that if you put them both side to side most people won't know the difference, bar performance.
I suspect that the new dashboard options that insiders have been testing is actually going to be a new unified dashboard across X1 and XSX. Which is why they are testing lots of options and really taking their time with it.
Is this a new dash altogether, or you just got the update late? Pics? :D
This is a great suggestion!
Why would be worried about something that hasn't been announced yet?
Yeah, I think it looks great, and last night update added more options and customization to the My Games & Apps tab.
Nah, in Playground we trust. They've been hiring the best talent in the world, and Forza Horizon has shown they're masters at world building and attention to details.
Seems to be a modification of the games and apps page. Everything on the right hand side listing what to be installed, updates, game pass installs etc. Less drilling down for info. At work currently, will try and snag a Pic when I get home.
Yeah, I had that thought when I was looking at it last night, as I noticed there's an option to filter installed games by console.
Hopefully this goes up on YouTube or a VoD before too long, I really want to watch it.
Thanks! Now I just have to hope I can remember it 200 pages later :D
Playground has another team doing an RPG. It's been reported to be Fable. However we won't really know until it's officially announced.
Maybe something like the late Fast and Furious movies that are more about big action heist movies than actual racing.
Yes, this is something I've always thought Playground could do, a third person, action adventure racing game that's Fast and Furious inspired with insane action set pieces.

Looking at the top sales over the years Halo used to be such a juggernaut in terms of sales, especially for being an exclusive. Hopefully Infinite will return it to it's former glory.

too bad the whole gaming landscape is different where we have Gamepass and plenty of other items that aren't included in sales data anymore.
glory may mean amount sold to you, but for me its about being fun and keeping that consistency years down the road where i keep coming back.
Glory will mean high player engagement that last a decent length.
