They did the same thing the last price hike, two month after, they send you another mail telling your that your subscription price will be increased. I won’t fall for that trick again.
I’m a physical media Fan, I have a lot of PS3, PSP, Vita, 3DS and switch games, but when it comes to consoles post the PS3 era I don’t see the point of having half a build of a game on a BluRay, (a working buggy 1.1 version of game in the best case) Physical is dead and we have to accept it, Switch 2 Game Key Cards were just the last Nail on the coffin of physical. There’s no point to it anymore.
I have cancelled Gamepass some months ago, since I don’t play online games, and my backlog is considerable big. I was planning on subscribing for Persona 4 and Ninja Gaiden 4, but at that price for a subscription I’d rather just buy them.
Time to recharge the battery on my Iphone X with a backbone, love the Remote play feature on Xbox, and I am sure the I would love the dedicated handheld device, but the price is outrageous, truly, truly, truly outrageous
My favorite game this year is “Gori: Cuddly Carnage”. (nobody plays it now… but it will be a Cult classic years down the line) amazing little game. Loved it.
On Xbox… Persona 3 reload (bought the razer Kishii gamepad and pair it with an iphone X I had on a drawer… its been a game changer… remote play is amazing )
Hi-fi rush was the high of this generation for me (Not only for xbox, but for PS5 too) but I am sick of “First person open world games with crafting mechanics and realistic graphics” Forza Horizon 5 is a great arcade racing game and played a lot of it. And I have really high hopes for South of Midnight
Looks like what Nintendo is doing. Just a little logo on top left, I like it more space for the artwork, but I was under the impression that Xbox would not release physical games anymore
@Sifi don’t even make me start on Sony…. (Thats the reason why I bought the Series X in the first place) They lost my respect eons ago. I think im too old for modern gaming. One thing is sure, I would not buy the PS6 or the xbox series XXX. Since I do not care about the route they are taking or the type of game they are producing. Honestly I spend more time on my 3DS than on these modern machines that I spent so much money on.
I guess it’s great news for COD fans, I am still hurt that they cancelled Hi-Fi rush 2 and focus on this kind of games. i know that nobody wins it its a flop, and it’s the workers on the studios that end up paying the price, but an evil part of me is wishing that the next COD will be a massive failure, making xbox executives loose millions.
To me it was localized prices, being in Latin america, if the Store has the same prices of Playstation, I would Never had bought an Xbox in the first place, since I really don’t care about FPS or “American Flavored games”
I already downgraded from Ultimate to Core, and really focusing on Call of duty and closing great studios (Like tango gameworks) seems like a stupid move.
Tunic, since I Downgraded from Game pass ultimate to core (because there was a 500% raise in the price in my region) and that was the game im halfway through
And when the next generation of consoles arrives and every game runs at 60 FPS everyone will complaint that 60 is unplayable and 120 FPS is the only acceptable framerate , I am so sick of modern gaming…
@ShadowofTwilight I am glad we are finally on the same page my friend, let’s rejoice by installing this Lovely theme on our respective Xboxes (The way the dragon looms over the games is exquisite)
I will play it for sure, but have zero hype for it. Without the Houzers Rockstar is not what it used to be. And to be honest with so many games being released weekly, i’m in no rush to play “another crime open world game” even if is being made by the “masters” of the genre.
Even with the constant sales these games usually get, this is an amazing offer (if you like Lego games) Sadly the only one I have mild interest on, I already bought on a previous sale (Skylwalker Saga)
I am interested in the South Park One, but the premise didn’t convince me enough in order to Pre order it. Let’s wait for the reviews (I still have nightmares about South Park games in 3d)

Re: Hi-Fi RUSH Is Getting One Final Patch As Tango Gameworks Thanks Fans For Support
This game made me an Xbox fan, the closure of this studio made me loose all hope on Xbox.
Re: Xbox Reportedly Considering Game Pass Price Hike To Accommodate Call Of Duty
I already downgraded from Ultimate to Core, and really focusing on Call of duty and closing great studios (Like tango gameworks) seems like a stupid move.

Re: Hellblade 2 Will Display With Black Bars Outside Of Ultrawide Mode
Between the letterbox, the cinematic pretensions and the short runtime Hellblade 2 sounds more and more like this generation “The order 1886”

Tunic, since I Downgraded from Game pass ultimate to core (because there was a 500% raise in the price in my region) and that was the game im halfway through
Re: Talking Point: Which Classic COD Would You Play First On Xbox Game Pass?
The Kevin Spacey just for the sake of curiosity, but I don’t care about call of Duty at all. In my eyes is Fifa with guns and American flags.
Re: Talking Point: Which Xbox Games Have Left You Most Pleasantly Surprised?
Hi-Fi Rush... I expected nothing of Bethesda (don't like the kind of games they usually publish) and I got the best game of this generation.

Re: Xbox's Hi-Fi RUSH Actually Has 'Slightly' Improved Visuals On PS5
@AnVold thats what everyone says, but I have never seen a problem with it, and really enjoyed it.
Re: Xbox's Hi-Fi RUSH Actually Has 'Slightly' Improved Visuals On PS5
I choose to buy Shin Megami tensei Vengeance on switch rather than Xbox or PS5 so obviously performance and graphics is not an issue to me.

Re: Xbox Honors Akira Toriyama With Free 'Blue Dragon' Dynamic Background
