Pick One: Which Of These Xbox Series X Games Are You Most Excited For?

I chose Everwild, because I personally feel that this is finally something that's worthy of the name Rare again, but I want and am looking forward to all of them.

Ive been playing the Master Cheif Collection and man these games are fun.. I was never a big Halo guy when i was younger, i don't know why but they just never clicked with me, But since the Xbox showcase and the Halo Infinite reveal i decided to go back and give it another try and man i'm completely addicted to Halo right now i love it.. I plan on playing the entire Master Cheif Collection and Halo 5 before Halo Infinite comes out... So my vote goes to Halo.

Avowed. A Skyrim game by Obsidian in the Pillars Campaign Setting? I'm SO there.

Definitely Fable for me. The prospect of Playground Games - even if it is their unproven second studio - bringing back such a beloved IP is too exciting. If they can do to fantasy RPGs what they did to open world racers, they've got another sure-fire hit on their hands.

Everwild (please be good) really enjoying Sea of Thieves, so crossing fingers for this Rare title.

I'll have to say Avowed as it looks like Skyrim but by Obsidian, who are much better than Bethesda at these types of games

For me halo then avowed I also need to try out fable

1: Fable 2:Halo 3:Everwild, really interested in that game what its like.

I am excited about them all.....

But, Fable gets my vote.

Everwild has me very intrigued so I picked that, even if we still don’t know much about how it will play.

Between 2004 and 2010 there's no way people would have been more excited for Fable than they were Halo. Weird times.

I'm picking Avowed. Obsidian are a fantastic dev, with a proven record with RPG games, and making great games. The only other dev on that list with a proven track record is Turn 10, and despite owning a wheel, racing games come pretty low on my interest list.

Out of those 5, I would have to say a very close tie between Everwild and Avowed. The others sound great, but I am always looking forward to new franchises. That being said, I still want to play Halo Infinite and Fable quite a bit! This holiday season can't come soon enough for Halo!

Fable. I mean, that trailer felt as if Lionhead had never been closed (and Peter Molyneux had been fired). I must admit that seeing that thumbnail, with all those IPs, made me blush with pride. 😄

I had to pick Fable. I know that the trailer didn't give us a lot but basing it on the worlds of Albion and game-play from previous and the potential that could mean for a new game in the franchise, it took the top spot, just, for me.

Avowed ran it very close but the fact that I don't have any previous attachment to the world, it lost out to Fable. Forza came next despite the fact that Motorsport is a game that I play when I just want to do something a bit more mindless - not get involved in character development, lore, world dynamics etc.

Halo would have come higher if the game-play had lived up to the promise shown in previous trailers - the Game Engine Demo in 2018, last years Discovering Hope trailer but then the game-play really looked bad - regardless of what DF said today. Its not just the 'flat' look with the implementation of the lighting, but the fact that it doesn't measure up to the promise of previous trailers, doesn't even measure up to games this gen (look at Gears 5 Character models for example let alone games like Far Cry 5, Assassins Creed and numerous others this gen).

Everwild hasn't appealed to me at all yet - not because of the artstyle, but that I haven't seen anything that gives me a reason to want to spend time in that world. Of course that could change when we actually find out what we are going to be doing in it but until then, I can't get excited. All the others, we have an idea of we can expect, either from previous games or in the case of Avowed, from the trailer.

<-------- My avatar should tell you where my vote lies.

Avowed a VERY close second, I mean goodness me Obsidian getting to do elder scrolls... I feel giddy. Also nice to see Xbox showing some love to rpgs again.

Fable... Hard not to be excited for a return of a beloved name from a studio that cranks out fun and flashy games, and a beautiful and funny trailer.

But avowed is almost too close to call... An obsidian rpg with a big budget is a big deal.

Not sure what to make of everwild. Rare seems like Microsoft's media molecule... Seems sandboxy.... Probably not my cup of tea

@gingataisen Yes, the first party games drought is almost over, rejoice!

@gingataisen Poor Peter 😆 he had the right idea and I think he would write a great book but he just couldnt make it all tally up in development.

Fable. Easy vote this although Everwild has me curious.

Not a massive fan of first person RPGs but I am sure Avowed will entertain those who are.

@Jaxx420

You should watch Ryan McCaffrey’s interview with him. You can find it on YouTube. It’s actually very interesting to fans of Fable.

@KelticDevil I have seen bits and pieces of it but might check it out in full.

He had amazing ideas and if his visions could actually come to fruition would be amazing games. I just think he was a little bit too ambitious in his head vs practicality sadly.

I remember him talking about Fable as Project Ego when it was first announced and talking about this huge open world "see a mountain in the distance walk to it" etc and just wasnt achievable ended up as a hub structure and he had a fight on from there to convince his vision worked.

Vision keeps the industry alive though and us being able to game though so cant complain! Need more like him in creative teams.

Fable would get my vote but not sure how confident I am without Molyneux at the helm

lol. I don't know how much my vote counts because Halo is the only one I'm familiar with (never played Forza or Fable before).

But I wouldn't mind playing either one of them. We have gamepass so honestly, there's no excuse.

All will be played but Avowed was the one i'd play first if all we're available at the same time.

@Jaxx420

Yea PM always had great ideas, but the execution part was always the issue. The problem was is he would tell the press all of his ideas in interviews & when the games didn’t deliver, people would be disappointed. The games were still great though.

I agree that the industry needs more people like him though. At least he had an imagination. That seems to be in short supply these days.

I voted Everwild since I tend to prefer more stylized visuals in my games. Avowed could be good, but I'm not a huge medieval fantasy fan, so it's working uphill for me. Likewise with Fable.

No interest at all in Halo or racing games, unfortunately.

Hi there fellow gamers. My vote goes to Everwild, with Fable a close second. I can´t say it enough times, but Everwild looks gorgeous. Love that art style so much. As for Fable, being made by Playground games makes me excited for what they will be able to do with this franchise that has been dormant for far to long. They already got the humour right. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

Avowed but not before 2022 i think 😢

For me Halo. Will definitely get Forza when that comes out and will give Everwild a try

So first off, I only just found out yesterday that this website had been revived, which pleases to no end. This site was a delightful thing to check out as I was investing more time into my Xbox One and I'm glad to see it return as the Xbox Series X draws near.

Q) Which Of These Xbox Series X Games Are You Most Excited For?

A) I'm curious about each of these but the main game that has me excited is the confirmation of a new Fable. It may not of had gameplay but the reveal did have humour and a British developer behind it likely to keep that British charm throughout it.

Whether I was getting an Xbox Series X day one was dependant on Fable... so it looks like I'm getting one day one now!

This was a weird show for me. I was disappointed that there were so many trailers, but between this show and the last one.. holy CRAP are there a ton of games coming!! A lack of content is NOT going to be an issue this generation lol

Am hopeful for Fable, but Avowed simply as it’s new, looks like Skyrim, and Obsidian are RPG masters. ETA TBA...

I'm tempted to say Halo: Infinite just because we know almost nothing about the others.

Avowed and Fable interest me most. Open world fantasy!

I prefer Bethesda's focus on an action playground to Obsidian's focus on narratives. But Skyrim and Oblivion are pretty much it for first-person fantasy open worlds, so I'm thrilled if anyone else wants to try. Playground's history is with action games, so Fable could be great in that respect too.

Everwild looks great, but we don't know what the gameplay will look like. It will probably arrive before Avowed or Fable. Holidays 2021?
