What does Xbox pay to those who have their games on the pass? Is it better to get a steady smaller income or take the chance and strike out on your own. Should the game not sell as well as hoped they still have to option to put it on gamepass after release?
The lack of first party games released in 2022 even after buying up all those studios will be remembered. My wife and son use it to Play Dragon Quest Builders 2 and I'm playing Jade Empire.
In 2022 I only bought Tunic and even thennits Xbox play anywhere so I play mostly on PC. Any other major game went to the PS5. Even on Switch I only bought the new Kirby. Pretty slow year for new games.
So many statements. Just finish the game and release it. If it was that great you wouldn't have to push so hard. It's been in development for so long it will feel dated by the tike it releases.
The problem with Trover Saves the Universe was they sometimes talked way too much. A lot a lot of Rick and Morty style dialog. This looks fun like Stranger's Wrath.
No you just held back all new first party games for almost a year and then announced a price hike in order to push more game pass subscriptions. Well done with an amazing business sense.
I don't feel bad for them. This game is 4 years too late already. Milking GTA V Online means some people may not be around of GTA 7 ever becomes a reality.
I only bought two series s consoles because I couldn't find a PS5. Once I did it kinda just sits there unless I feel like playing the games I have on it. Currently Bloodstained, Tunic, Hollow Knight and Death's Door. Run those games perfectly.

Re: Feature: 50 Xbox Series X|S Games To Look Forward To In 2023
