This generation has been underwhelming Discussion

I bought a Series X at launch, and can’t think of a single game that has impressed me this gen. I’m a big Halo fan, and Halo Infinite felt like a letdown. I’m a Forza fan, and Forza Motorsport felt like a massive disappointment. I was exited for Starfield, but was underwhelmed after playing it.

It just feels like we’ve had no heavy hitters this gen, even 3rd party AAA games have been average at best. I guess the only hope I have left is with Gears 6, but aside from that, Microsoft needs to get their act together and start releasing some new games. It feels like games are taking way too long to make these days, we used to get bangers every year in the 360 gen. Even the Xbox One had more compelling games than what we have now

I have everything, and frankly, the only thing that has impressed me is the Switch this generation. Xbox is killing me with the shitty UI left over from the One. I’d say we got a good Halo this generation, but I’m not holding my breath for anything else.

Man, don’t get me started on the god awful UI. Compared with the 360’s iterations, the current UI is an absolute joke
