Halo Infinite – Xbox One

Halo Infinite is the series’ first cross gen release, and considering that it’s on this list – the game definitely fell short of expectations. The Halo games have always served as a graphical showcase for Microsoft’s consoles, and Halo Infinite definitely missed the mark. Having to juggle 2 different versions of the same game obviously requires making compromises to the visuals, and that’s what precisely happened here.

Furthermore, players on this platform also have to contend with a 30fps frame rate which also dampens the enjoyment of such a fast-paced shooter.
