Generation Xbox - Your Home for Xbox Series X News and Opinions!

This week, we dive into the announcement that the upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare from Activision will have PlayStation exclusivity in one of its modes for almost a year. With so many fans calling out the industry for microtransactions, why do some publishers get a pass on these kinds of exclusivity deals?

Sony held a State of Play this week and we got some The Last of Us 2 news - including a release date. We also got an update on whether multiplayer will be part of Sony's upcoming exclusive, and discuss whether multiplayer is really needed.

Xbox held an Inside Xbox episode this week, and we got some updates on The Outer Worlds and Project XCloud. Finally, the Medal of Honor series is making a comeback with Respawn developing a new game - and it's going to be entirely in VR! Will a full length shooter campaign in VR help grow VR in gaming?

Finally, we get into what cool things are on the horizon in the next week or two, for both game releases and in our community Join our amazing community to never miss a thing!
