There's certainly a bunch of pressure on MS to bring it in July.
- The past few Halo games have NOT been received that well from fans and the attempt to appeal to more 'casual' gamers by adding sprint/ADS etc hasn't worked - you can see that in the sales numbers. 343 need to hit a home run with Infinite for sure. I say this as a die-hard Halo fan (117 in my username!) and someone who bought 360, XB1 and XB1X at launch. Maybe Bungie just had that 'magic' and understanding of the franchise that 343 can't replicate - I hope I am wrong.
- That third party show was such a bad idea and the hyping that MS did for it was stupid as hell. Basically gave Sony an open goal.
Also they need to give a real good reason to get Halo Infinite on XSX over XB1X if they want it to be a system seller.
