Re: Xbox Series X|S Sales Estimates Show Consoles Lagging Far Behind Last-Gen

Sales might also be down because they keep making most of the games backward compatible all the way back to XBox One (2013). I still meet people online playing on their day one XBox One's, why buy a new console. Also a side complaint those are the same people slowing down all the load-in times for online games because we all need to wait for them

@AccessibleDaydream I've been ringing that bell for years. On May 7 2020 Aaron Greenberg tweeted "60fps will be the standard output, but the architecture allows us to support up to 120fps." And just 4 days later added "Developers always have flexibility in how they use the power, so a standard or common 60fps is not a mandate." Now 4 years later here we are, still stuck with 2 feet in the mud.

There isn't a whole lot of point to making impressive hardware when there's no impressive software to go along with it. Everything will be cross-platform for so many years developers won't have time to optimize only for the most powerful console, kind of like now. Reminds me of how the Series X had no games at launch that gave a "Wow that looks and plays so great" moments. No new Halo, Gears, Forza Motorsport. And they sure disappointed on the "all new games will be targeting 60 fps as a standard". I'm not keeping my hopes up for anything mind blowing, currently it's all just sales people selling an idea.

Re: Forza Motorsport Update 4 Arrives Next Week, New Track & Early Patch Notes Revealed

I wish they would stop calling them "New Tracks", they were in the previous game and should have come with this one at launch. New tracks are new to the series, not ones we used to have before that they re-give us. There's lots of great race tracks out there that could be added. (Also wouldn't mind some of the older made up tracks from FM3 or FM4 be added back in like they did with Maple Valley)
