Maybe this is a more realistic reason for Newell’s comment:

But they don’t care, period.
I know it is hard for Xbox fans, but the company does not care at all of want they want.
They are spinning endlessly to shape the business the way MS wants it: stable monthly revenues, financial predictability and good margins.
Forget about any risk, any innovation or any artistic ambition.
This is so obvious now.
Stop buying box product and cancel all gamepasses for 2 or 3 ...
My point exactly for months.
It is such a bad decision, and we only see the beginning of the uncanny situation it will turn Xbox marketing for years.
It is either a complete ignorance of the gaming market, or the worst arrogance driven move of the whole industry.
Even Mattrick infamous launch management and Kinect focus wasn’t has bad for Xbox business than the situation here.
I hope Xbox fanboys will finally get Spencer accoun...
They should stop stating anything, as everything seems to contradict across this mess.
They will not be any massive graphics overhaul for a launcher in 4 months: some framerate polishing and bug cleaning at best If the game is close to completion.
If not, let’s be prepared for a poor graphics and bug cramped product at launch.
Pure none sense, their is always tech limitations.
Plus, Greenberg said Halo was an old built to justify graphic backlash, but now it is art style for Spencer?
Seems like they don’t even try anymore.
As long as implementation is not detailed, it is smoke and mirror.
They can just use ray tracing for scope reflection during cinematic and get the ray tracking label i suppose.
That means nothing, usage of a specific rendering technique is not a seal of graphic quality.
I am afraid S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 will be overused by Xbox teams for BS PR and that is going to ruin game launch.
Hope they will be no clue that PS5 hardware could be as or more efficient in some cases than SX in the future, which may show this dev technical incompetency.
More seriously, as this game comes to PC so it will certainly have minimum spec far lower than SX or PS5 power.
This is once and once and once again lame statement sponsored by Xbox team still considering the audience is dumb as sh.t.
They should really stop this, especially in...
No, like all other GaaS BS, if you consider the same player will be motivated to play it consistently for 10.
If they consider 10 years but with evolving player base it can, but that would mean that they will be no new Halo game for the next 10 years, but endless recycling.
Looking forward for this game. Just beat down n sane trilogy a few months ago , I am ready for more Crash.
“Devs” should stop talking and go back to the work here.
Plain BS here, for sure the demo is not from the final build, optimisation is ongoing but core graphical assets will not change from what we have seen.
This is the worst comment XBox team could made, especially with no screenshot of current release to back this up.
Once again Xbox fans are treated like idiots by the company they support.
And where is Spencer now? We heard from him 2 times a days for 2 weeks before the show, now he ha...
An other turn of Xbox deceptive PR.
But after the showcase, I start to see cracks. Some long time fan of the brand seems to finally see they are fooled on a regular basis to make them to continue to pay their subscriptions.
Well, that’s what open world means, Iike for 10 years now.
The joke never ends.
Wow, what is that now? Gameplay demo is being harshly criticized for poor graphics and they go with this Gaas sh.t on top of it the same day ?
Are they tying to kill the Halo brand or something?
@RamRod88
Sure I am not a Xbox or Halo fan.
I am honestly sad to see Xbox lowering their standards at each treason from Xbox staff.
Accept the fact that Infinite does not comply with everything promised from hardware and software PR for years (best console ever, 500$M budget) and fight MS back on their lies to get what you deserve.
Sorry, it does not.
Remember SX has a 12 TF gpu.
I am playing for years on a 1080ti with 12 TF also that can make Horizon Zero Dawn or Death Stranding run at 4k 60fps with better graphics than Infinite.
I don’t blame the developers, i thing they had no choice to comply with MS targets.
This is so generic gameplay wise, and technically far below expectations.
Jitter everywhere, clipping, poor textures (the chest closed to the end), weak facial animations, low world geometry.
They put everything on the 60fps bucket and One S/One X compatibility.
Here is the proof that MS strategy for first party exclusives will held back game design big time and make SX irrelevant for a couple of years.
This trailer looked liked a Last of Us 2 rip off with black Ellie.
Impressive, and a glimpse of what a true next gen halo could have been.
There is so much more atmosphere mood in this Dream construction than in 343 demo.
