AI-Generation

None for me for the month of August.
I manly have GPU for Xbox studio AAA games like. FH6, Halo, gears e day and Fable.

Had a go at the campaign missions.
Was a great COD experience as expected.
Will have to wait for reviews to see how the rest of the campaign adds up and the length as well.

@awp69
Well at least we get 60FPS with Fable.

For me it goes to show, delaying games and also using that time for polish is the right move.
How many hundreds of games should have been delayed for polish.

But it also shows had the release been this year that polish would have been lacking and not good for it.

@Balaam_
Totally agree with should have 60FPS.

It is funny over at push square same article how they hype this game so much and miss out this bit that is on pure Xbox

“ Instead, the image reads very much like a relatively straightforward spatial upscale from 1440p to 4K, bringing with it a degree of softness, visible geometric aliasing and shimmer on fine details. RT elements exacerbate this in places, with noisy, smeared reflections that can look worse than older screen-space solutions in some static comparisons."

It’s the same when they go on about the switch 2 and it preforms very good against the PS5 and Xbox series x.
Yep right that’s because it’s running at 30fps and not 60fps to start with.

In this case with Pro and series x frame rate is because the Pro is pushing out a lot more
Visually overall, at least they mention that.

Well let’s think about this, over decades disk drives have been on major decline.
CD players car and home, home Blu-ray players, PC and now consoles.

So it’s also a slow close down of the manufacturers and less of them available.

What is a disc drive some of the youngsters say.

If there is absolutely one thing that GTA has taught us, it is not the console and the power they have or not holding back games and quality of and size and amazing details that GTA gives us.
It’s time and budget costs of companies.
GTA is a billion dollar made game that gives you all that amazing stuff of course at a cost.
We don’t need maybe more powerful consoles but more time and bigger budgets to make the games at the level of GTA.

Have not played VF for years.
Will give this a GPU go.

@ZeD
Thank you, I’m in no rush, but a least on series x we have VRR LFC going down to 20fps so that should help with that 30fps frame rate and iron out a few wrinkles.

Now Xbox series x is the best place to play GTA6 😊

Let’s not forget Xbox series x has LFC baked into its hardware that takes VRR with LFC down to 20fps, so with GTA 6 at 30fps the Xbox series x could have an advantage.

VRR Range: The official Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) range for the PS5 is 48Hz to 120Hz at the system level.Low Framerate Compensation (LFC): Because the lower floor of the PS5's VRR window stops at 48Hz, it does not stretch down to 20Hz or engage LFC for 30fps/20fps dips the way XBOX consoles or PC implementations can.

No play at 30fps for me, the only chance I have is if the pro is 60fps. However I would prefer series x at 60fps.
So let’s wait and see, it’s only one little game with hundreds of other great games to play at 60fps.

Shall probably wait for Helix 60FPS.
Which will also include bugs eliminated, wrinkles ironed out and some life improvements.

Still not super excited. Always had trouble with GTA V all vehicle handling and sometimes the protagonist’s movement system.
The rest looked really good of course.
Will wait for reviews especially the things I’m concerned about.
And of course is it 30fps? Seemed that in the gameplay today.

If I was a scalper I would not be risking this at all. It’s not like a new generation release or something that special, especially with Xbox the way it is, even though it’s picking up a little bit.

I think both series x and ps5 and pro will be around for years with next generation.

They will be part of family and cross generation games will be here forever.

As for cost, Helix has to be expensive due to. The current cost of components and it has to be more powerful than current generation. There is no escaping it.

@FraserG
Have you also noticed February 2027 all games release schedule, it’s getting crazy packed and even silly now.

With this demo and the series x 60FPS news it’s been a great day.

If they fully pull Fable off and with FH6 this will make Playground Games the top Xbox studio for me.

@FraserG
For me going only on GTAV and what I’ve seen of GTA6.
Fable is the game for me by a long shot.

Asha should have came out at the gamescom last night and announced this and of course done a little video, just to poke fun at Sony.

@oopsiezz
30fps should never even be an option.
60fps only.

That has made my day after a hard week at work. Fable series x 60FPS. 😊

Obviously purchased Witcher 3 day one originally. To old a game and to far gone for me to go back now, even for the new dlc.

I don’t know why it seems old for me now.

Yep, gears e day was the only game of the show that I would pay and play.
Of course with GPU I don’t have to buy, but I would do without GPU.

Apart from gears e day, I don’t think there was another game I would pay and play.

Yes I did watch the whole 2 hours live.

@awp69
Not sure what the USA is like, I would have thought a lot more promotion like I said for the UK, than the UK is.

They actually need to get merchandise into shops in the UK, like they had years ago.
It’s all Sony and Nintendo at Primark etc.
Cheaper kids stuff, t shirts, PJs and slippers etc.

Get some shop exposure when mum and dad are shopping with youngsters.

It’s almost like they don’t do the deals with these shops now, let’s have a big Christmas push this year.

I still see some people in Xbox t shirts etc but that is old gear, so there may still be a market in the UK for it.

A long way to go, and who knows what the console market will be like then in 2028.
Obviously it will be a cross generation release if new consoles are out by then.

Only into the campaign which I watched and looked great so far and got some good write ups, so may purchase this.

The opening night and the two Xbox ones for me.

Now on Halo the first of the 3 new missions.

Shall be watching good time 7pm UK.

@FraserG
Thank you, now I understand.
Shall wait for the free access.

@Millionski
Yes it did, until this morning, they sold out now.

@Mr-Cage
That’s interesting switch 2 is about £380
So why is the series s more expensive.

I’m totally convinced this Microsoft and Sony are making the most of it and both trying to profit more.

@FraserG
Series x got to screens finally.
One says add to wish list the other choose edition. That loops round. No option to download

Any ideas. GPU Member.

This should be simple and right at the front of store and work.

@Mr-Cage
Or they could revert back to less powerful systems like switch and switch 2.
Switch 2 will sell not just because it’s Nintendo but the other consoles are getting to expensive.

Don’t forget on the official site UK you can still buy the 2tb disc series x for the old price of £589.99.

Helix, give it a physical drive as standard
Online gaming and cloud saves free.
Two massive wins, that could make directional changes in the market.
You can play and exchange your games saving money.
You can play FIFA and COD Online for free.

A lot depends also what the percentage is out of.
For example 5% of 100 isn’t a lot.
But 5% of 1,000,000 is a lot more.

There’s a bit more to it than just a percentage.

Finally just watched a couple of vids.
It’s just the same GTA to me so far, so dam violent as well.

Yes Lego stuff is crazy expensive in the UK especially themed stuff.
At least we a real console we get a console that does things and is a workable entertainment device.

@Titntin
Well that makes me 65 then, that must be other way round.
Time goes quicker every year.

@Titntin
Have a great birthday Friday.

@Stoned_Patrol
It’s more about business and peak viewing times.
That’s why certain very big TV programmes have certain times to capture a peak audience.
Perhaps you should run Xbox and make a mess of it like the rest of them. They need to get the USA out of their head if they wish to be a success outside of the USA, actually they are not even a success inside the USA.
🤣🤣🤣

@General-Foley
what usually happens is a stock take in the warehouse and a few pop up at the back of the shelves.

@General-Foley
I think it’s just stock left and once gone it’s gone as they not making any more of that model.

@RiverGenie
Well they will miss broadcasting live to many then. Not my business up to them.

I will just watch the few games I’m interested in later in the day.

Do you know you can still buy the 2tb series x on the official UK website for the original price of £589.99.
They have not out the price up and still some for sale.
