Xbox Series X Event Didn't Have as Much Gameplay as Fans Had Hoped For
Xbox’s first Xbox Series X gameplay event wrapped up on Thursday to show off a first look at [...]
Not Gameplay
prevnextHey, Xbox? Pre-rendered cutscenes and in-engine animation isn't gameplay.
I saw maybe a minute of gameplay total, and even that looked scripted, if not just completely pre-rendered itself.
Sure, graphics are nice, but I'm no closer to seeing actual in-game gameplay than I was.

Would've Loved More Gameplay
prevnextWatched the Inside Xbox show.
- Tons of new IPs announced
- Bright Memory, Scorn, and The Medium were highlights for me
- Dirt 5 in 120 fps on Series X will be epicWould've loved to see more actual gameplay though. 🤷🏻♂️
Guess we'll have to wait for the July event for more! pic.twitter.com/MbEbri2BtM

Underwhelming
prevnextFirst impressions is everything. I thought Xbox would of learned that lesson with the launch of the Xbox One.
This was suppose to be our “First Look” at Series X gameplay, and it was underwhelming as hell.
Put your best foot forward or don’t show anything at all. #InsideXbox
