Polygon write: "There's no sugarcoating it: Halo: The Master Chief Collection's multiplayer component is broken. Users have reported extended wait times to access matches in every playlist (or "hopper," per Halo parlance). Polygon editors have had similar difficulties, and today I was unable to access a single match of any kind, encountering various error messages or endless queues, and even one full game crash to the Xbox One dashboard."
The newest From Software game is just around the corner. These are five excellent games to play while waiting for Armored Core 6.
With the release date being just a little over a week away, it may not be a good idea to burn yourself out on mech games until then.
Surprised that the article didn’t mention Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries if we’re talking about mech-related games.
These are some of the best and most popular video game franchises now owned by Xbox Game Studios and Microsoft.
Microsoft was involved with Halo, Gears, Forza, Ori, Flight Simulator and Fable from early development, I will give them credit for those franchises. Fallout, Elder Scrolls and Doom were established franchise before being acquired by MS.
Ah yes, feels like forever ago since Microsoft created Skyrim. So much so, I had actually forgotten they had created it and the other Elder Scrolls games! 🤔
*They really shaped my preteen years w the original Doom too!
I fully expect all these popular franchises to be killed off by Microsoft. Just a matter of time.
Unless they take a huge distance approach which pretty much means they don't ba e anything to do with the games being made ...in that case the franchises should be fine. But then...they shouldn't really get credit.
Soon Microsoft will be known for making Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Candy Crush, Call of Duty etc. Lmao they know what they're doing. Especially with the archiving issue the gaming industry has.
You mean any studio Microsoft could acquire to flog last gen games on game pass ... What happened to HD-DVD that Microsoft pushed so hard ...
Non-playable characters in certain games are meme material, thanks to their foolish behavior. These are the big-budget games with the dumbest NPCs.
Bethesda makes the most consistently stupid NPCs, like really bad... yet I still can't help but love playing their games. Guilty pleasure, I guess. *sigh* 😩
Every Bethesda game and Every Halo game. This list needed to have Cyberpunk somewhere.

Wow!! Polygon changed score...
I really detest this new trend of publishers releasing broken games. Not to sound like an old man, but in my day, games were released without the need for "patches". Dig-Dug, Duck Hunt, Pong, Super Mario Bros., Tenchu, etc, all worked perfectly out of the box. But then again, games are a lot more complex these days.
Honestly, that's fair. Good on polygon for changing scores in accordance with the online quality and not over dramatically scoring MCC low because there's 4 completely gorgeous campaigns that have thoroughly influenced the FPS genre in gaming today.
You know whats really stupid? The fact if fan boys complain hard enough reviewers will update and change their score just because its a popular franchise. If you are going to do an update review you may as well do it for every single game released. If the product is broken from the get go then don't give it a freaking 9.5 and change it down to an 8 later on, that's extremely unprofessional and you lose credibility. If it's an 8 because of problems with multiplayer and single player then it should have received it from the beginning. Oh yeah and I don't give a shit about your disagree lame internet warriors
