"Halo is on PlayStation going forward," according to Halo community director Brian Jarrard.

[RetroGamingUK]

No. Red. Lines.

 

[tr1p1ex]

So MSFT says Xbox everywhere for years now and we're getting Xbox everywhere.

[Elbereth]

 

[Draugoth]

What forward?

Foward Unto Dawn

 

[Magic Carpet]

Sorry Playstation. You will have to scroll through Halo thumbnails in the store to find what your really looking for. A little speed bump.

 

[N30RYU]

[Artistic]

Disappointed, but expected.

"Going forward" means "from now on" or "in the future" and is often used in a business context to talk about future actions, plans, or changes. It can also be used more generally to mean "to continue to a future point" or "to make progress".

• From now on/In the future:
  This is the most common meaning, especially in business.
  • Example: "Going forward, we will require all employees to submit time sheets weekly".
  • Example: "After securing the funding, the company can go forward with its expansion plans".

I hear PS buyers are the suckers subsidizing the best deal in gaming.

If you told this to 18 year old me, I would've removed you from my MySpace Top 8 friends.

Never

343i is dead and those devs are gone

 

[Gitaroo]

and Sony owns the studio created Halo, let that sink in

 

[Mikey Jr.]

And that's it.

It's done.

The war between PlayStation and Xbox officially finished today. Wow. Been a long time haha.

 

[AREYOUOKAY?]

Years of Xbox controller layout skills poured down the drain.

 

[MagnesD3]

I mean the xbox brand is dead (and the halo brand honestly).

 

[mayham2199]

This gen has been crazy.

 

[vodka-bull]

Well at least they bought half the industry so no one gets creative games anymore.

 

[GermanZepp]

 

[diffusionx]

imagine if this email leaked during the console war threads in early 2020 on here lmao

 

[jm89]

Look of a man trying to get to that 30% profit margin.

Microsoft just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about American culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in Japan where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in America, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the american public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Halo for either system, nor will they purchase any of Microsoft's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Microsoft has alienated an entire market with this move.
Microsoft, publicly apologize and cancel Halo for Playstation or you can kiss your business goodbye.

On the one hand, it's really strange to see Halo going to a PlayStation console.
On the other hand, Halo hasn't been great for many years. So it's not like it matters, as much as if it was during the X360/PS3 era.
Still, it's a clear sign that Xbox as a brand is worth very little now.

 

[mckmas8808]

This is more than a white flag moment.

 

[Viruz]

 

[Mephisto40]

Imagine the meltdown in the comments of the digital foundery videos of it running better on Playstation

 

[DarkShadowXI]

"Where were you when Xbox died?"

 

[Embearded]

What a crazy timeline

Only because Phil and the gang destroyed the Xbox brand.

 

[Germuso]

"You were the chosen one"

 

[Iced Arcade]

Gears, Halo...saves me a fuck load next gen.

buy an xbox to play xbox games OR buy a PS6 and play PS and xbox games. win

 

[Fbh]

It's cool to have Halo on playstation I guess.
But between there not having been a good Halo in ages and them moving on to UE5 it's hardly something to get excited about.

 

[VAVA Mk2]

There is literally no reason to buy an XBox going forward. This was the final nail in the coffin.

 

[LordCBH]

This is more than a white flag moment.

Correct. It's a career moment.

Phil didn't get his career moment of buying Nintendo, but he gets this one.

 

[yogaflame]

Wow more halo to PS? Is this a dream?

 

[PSFore]

Moving exclusives to other platforms just gives more excuses for remakes.

 

[Oixte]

The end of the console war: Sony defeated Sega and then Sony defeated Microsoft.

We live now in peace.
