It is so awesome to see that Halo Infinite isn't doing great and how Xbox fans embraced UNFINISHED games.

Had a great time playing the game myself and look forward to any new content that comes out for it. That’s all that really matters to me. 😁
Halo Infinite is on the verge of falling out of the top 10 most-played games on Xbox, and old favorites that do have engaged, long-term playerbases like Apex, Fortnite, Warzone, GTA 5, Destiny, Roblox and Rainbow Six Siege have all passed it.
LMAO
People keep saying the ravager is the worst weapon in the game, and that's probably true (energy weapons in general need a buff), but I'm finding it to be excellent for objective denial in CTF
Damn! Halo lives rent free in yall head. 😂
You would be the first reply in this thread lol. ‘Twan must be busy…
There was a ResetEra thread about this topic a month ago. All signs point to Halo not hitting with this generation of gamer. I speculated it might be a “boomer shooter” last week. It’s a great game to me. But I’m 38. The kids are all about BR’s, Overwatch and Valorant these days.
Halo Infinite is actually up 3 spots on the Xbox most played list. It was out of the top 10 last week, but sitting at 9 right now. The bad press must have awaken the Halo fan base. I know I was on this past weekend

Y'all talk about Halo all the freaking time. That ship sailed 3 months ago for most gamers but you and your goons are obsessed with the game like that other fool who still can't stop talking about The Medium.😂
343 is entirely to blame. Game could have been great.
I also blame MS for not delaying the game yet again! The game wasn't 100% ready and while I agree 343 has a lot to answer for but MS, all they care is the holiday sales hence why they wouldn't delay Halo: Infinite.

That ship sailed 3 months ago?! When it launched?!?!
Again, I like the game. I’m just kinda shocked at the consumer reaction to it. You know damn well if a once brand defining IP for one of the other guys performed like this, you’d be all over it. I get why you don’t wanna talk about it. So don’t. Don’t come into these threads if you can’t handle it. I’m sure the Xbox forum has plenty of fluff topics you’d like to discuss. Or maybe start a thread discussing the “value” of Game Pass… That would give you and a couple other users here something positive to talk about.
And who the hell talks about The Medium?

Yeah, Phil and them knew what was launching. They just couldn’t wait anymore. But I do feel like 343 was being misleading. The “content complete” bs from January 2021 was clearly a lie. And they‘ve continued to be shady around roadmaps and delays. It’s just a shame it had to be Halo that this is happening to.

Nope! I literally have no history of doing anything of a sort in bold. Don't make shit up in desperation. It makes me look good. 😂
I am not here to discuss Halo, I am just here to make fun of you goons and it is clearly upsetting you.😎
Who, still talks about The Medium? That is for you to figure out. In the meantime, keep being upset by me pointing out the obvious.
I am not here to discuss Halo,
Yet any mention of Halo draws a response from you within minutes… You’re in every Halo thread. EVERY thread. When people discuss things I don’t wanna talk about, I just ignore the threads or make my own…
Just look at the amount of youtube videos that's been coming out in the last month or so. Me, the so called Infinite hater (halo living in my head 24/7 etc etc blah blah), has predicted that after the honeymoon period ends, the game will be exposed, and that 9/10 is nothing else but a number painted with a spray can on top of a 6/10.
Halo Infinite is not a Halo game. Its an imination created by an untalented group of people. They might've nailed the gunplay (a very important aspect of the game), but FAILED AT EVERYTHING ELSE. E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.
Around summer time, this game will be completely irrelevant and deleted from everyone's radar. By then, so little will give two shits about this game that they could delay coop and forge to 2025 and nobody will even notice.
The Halo franchise is in very bad hands.
Here is where I see it falls on each respective countries Xbox.com most played games:
US: 7
Mexico: 3
Canada: 6
Spain: 8
France: 11
UK: 11
Australia: 6
Denmark: 13
Norway: 10
Looks like Forbes is full of shit.
That's a shame. Halo was a great series back in the Xbox/Xbox 360 days. Things just haven't been the same since 4.
@Chutebox: just checked now in US and it shows it at 7 😎
https://ibb.co/6bfh1CX
Again, COD and GTA are missing from your list. You have some sort of a filter on… Again…
lol it literally says "viewing at 37 results" in his picture. There should be 50.

I respond to almost all threads but in your conspiracy theory mind I am "attracted" to Halo threads. 😂 You should consider ignoring my responses in Halo threads instead of being this upset every time I make fun of you and your goons obsession with the game.🤔
@Pedro: Maybe you have an obsession with defending the game… Does negative discussion surrounding Halo Infinite make you feel attacked? Because it’s not just this place talking about these things. It’s all over the internet at this point… From Halo haters to enthusiasts alike…
Also why is being in 7 or 9th place bad?? You guys think it's bad if it doesn't beat Fortnite, COD, and Roblox numbers?? From one of the lists someone posted Halo is more played than Madden?? I'd say that's pretty strong, especially for an arena/arcade shooter. *Shrug*
@Chutebox: the lists are pointless anyway, most played games are mostly crap. If the list actually mattered in regards to quality Fortnite wouldn't always be #1. It's just a goofy argument.
The funny thing that sticks out is Elden Ring. Shit got so much buzz everyone's playing it.
I guess this mean souls games are as mainstream as Fortnite and COD now. Which is funny, good for them. I wonder if from software fans will finally stop acting like thier favorite dodge roll action rpgs are niche and only for "hardcore" gamers lol

The reason why ER is this successful is because they've offered an insane amount of content in a very successful formula, and all of it in a game with no mtx or any bullshit that the core gamer hates. Because there's no BS and the content is this good, the core gamer/hardcore (or whatever you might call them) are happy, and the word of month is VERY positive. That alone is a massive free marketing for Fromsoft on the social media, youtube, twitch, etc. People say that the casual demographic is way more important to cater to, because there's a hundred times more of them than your "hardcore" crowd. Reality is, if you please the hardcore gamer, they'll be vocal about it, and from word of mouth, it will sell to the casuals just because they keep seeing and hearing about the damn game. At the end, the dev is happy because of sales. The "hardcore" crowd is happy because they got a good game with no bs and oversimplifications of everything (Ubishit says hello). And the casual gamer is happy because they've discovered a new game, something that might've not happen if everyone wasn't talking about the damn thing. "Well oiled machine" applies to the current Fromsoft. They better not change.

I have not stated anything in defense of Halo. In fact, I have been pretty clear and critical about the release of a full price game that has the least value proposition than any other Halo game numerous times but here we have you claiming I am defending the game.🤔
All of this deflection from you and your goons being obsessed with the game.😂
Halo getting a 9 and HFW & GT7 only getting an 8 has cows in all kinds of trouble 🤣
No one mentions the 2 Sony games above,only weeks after releasing,yet halo still lives rent free.
These are the only figures and facts needed
Halo inf MP was fun at release but the modes on offer are lacking compared to what would normally be offered, a general lack of things like forge, 343/MS's inability to foster a community, 343's inability to offer a complete campaign suite with the normal options or adapt to trends like the option of offering a BR also all point to some failings on 343's end.
I haven't touched it since the campaign launched. I can wait another year.
I don't understand why 343 doesn't just make a Battle Royale mode. I understand they're attempting to attract the MLG crowd but Gen Z kids find arena death match game modes 'slow'.

Nobody believes you. Call of Duty and GTA V are missing from your list and include only 37 games. The page that I've seen myself lists 50 games including GTA V and Call of Duty.
I kept saying that unlike the rest of the world MS didn't get the memo about Halo and Gears irrelevancy in a post CoD and then BR world.
MS should put this series out of its misery once they acquire AB. Really no reason to waste money on it when you have CoD.

The sad thing is that the Xbox.com is a public site and available to all to see, lol. Poor guys, all they care about are console wars. They hate facts. I am sure there is a reason they won't go and look at the most played, and it's probably not a good one 😂

Yeah I figured out what you're doing. You're going to the Xbox Game Catalog site and filtering on most played. That list doesn't give you the right ranking.
https://www.xbox.com/en-us/games/all-games?cat=mostplayed
This ranking is more accurate because this is based on their store:
