A Xbox One X for me this year in February along with 3 years of Game Pass Ultimate, it's an amazing console and Game Pass great value for money.... Will be getting a Series X down the line once the exclusive games start to roll in.
If ever it were time for a "Banjo Threeie" it's now. We can hope, they have brought back Perfect Dark after a long absence recently, so why not Banjo and Kazooie... A third proper iteration of the game is massively overdue and sorely needed!!
I think being a late adopter to the Xbox scene means I haven't played these games before, so I am more appreciative of the games the service offers...
Most people on here have likely played the games on offer if they wanted to already, which certainly takes the shine off..
Only got my Xbox One X in February and won't be getting a Series X till late 2021 (at the earliest) So mine is not going anywhere anytime soon.
Once I get a Series X I will very likely keep it as a secondary console still connected up to the TV...
(I can't see myself selling it)
@FraserG We all let you off... You work very hard, thank you for all the Xbox related news you provide... This site launched just as I got my Xbox One X, it's my first go-to place for anything Xbox related 😀
All sounds good to me, for a start I nearly picked up Fifa 2020 on sale the other week so the fact I will get this with Game Pass Ultimate is great...
There is another 7/8 titles I will play with a few other possibilities....
It's all additional content which I didn't expect so that's good with me...
Mostly Switch for me with Mario 3D All-Stars and Donkey Kong Country 2 but some Forza Horizon 2 on Xbox One also...
I recently got the physical version really cheap after enjoying both Horizon 3 and 4, it holds up very well...
@BlueOcean As you said regarding Banjo we don't want another Nuts and Bolts Banjo game.... Banjo Threeie is what's needed with Greg Mayles and Grant Kirkhope on hand once again...
Have the game physically and got the dlc cheap a few weeks back..
Just a quick question, will next gen after I install the game physically on Series X the dlc I paid for would still be ok to download?? I presume yes??
Another issue comes into play is if you only own the game physically and the game is digitally delisted you can never play it on next gen via backwards compatibility if the next gen machine is digital only....
@graysoncharles Hey, have faith haha.. 😀 I have a copy pre-ordered.... But I admit time will tell to see how it runs... Apparently more news will be revealed shortly regarding the Switch version... I just hope they reveal a release date finally..
@SuperKMx Yes exactly it does seem like incapability... As you say if Doom Eternal can run on Switch I see no need for this to not release on the Series S..
Hmm, News like this is no good for anybody planning to get a Series S..
I mean it's not even been released yet and already talk of a game not coming due to technical capability...

@FraserG That's great to know, thank you!!
Re: The First Two Of January 2021's Xbox Games With Gold Are Now Available
The King of Fighters XIII is great but is it just for the Xbox 360 and not the Xbox One??
Re: Poll: Will We See A New Banjo-Kazooie Game In 2021 Or Beyond?
If ever it were time for a "Banjo Threeie" it's now. We can hope, they have brought back Perfect Dark after a long absence recently, so why not Banjo and Kazooie...
A third proper iteration of the game is massively overdue and sorely needed!!

Only got my Xbox One X in February and won't be getting a Series X till late 2021 (at the earliest) So mine is not going anywhere anytime soon.

Game looks good, I will give it that...
Re: Roundup: Here's What The Critics Are Saying About FIFA 21
Not long till EA Play joins Game Pass. I think Fifa 2020 will do me just fine as 2021 has little new to offer...
Re: Phil Spencer: We're Years Away From 8K Being Standard In Games
@HollowSpectre Same, I need a 4K TV first 🤣

I will have to play this shortly..

Re: Another 6 Games Are Leaving Xbox Game Pass Next Month (Oct 15)
Oh no not Metro 2033 Redux... I think I might just buy the Metro Redux collection with the two games together as it's so cheap on Ebay...
Re: Guide: This Is What You'll Get With EA Play On Xbox Game Pass
I understand the dislike for EA but I will enjoy the additional games.....
Re: Pick One: Which Is Your Favourite Forza Horizon Game?
Has to be Forza Horizon 4 overall..
However, the Hotwheels DLC for Forza Horizon 3 makes it a tough choice... It really is great fun..
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (Sep 26th)
Mostly Switch for me with Mario 3D All-Stars and Donkey Kong Country 2 but some Forza Horizon 2 on Xbox One also...
I recently got the physical version really cheap after enjoying both Horizon 3 and 4, it holds up very well...
Re: Random: Design Director At The Initiative Teases Upcoming Xbox Game
@BlueOcean As you said regarding Banjo we don't want another Nuts and Bolts Banjo game....
Banjo Threeie is what's needed with Greg Mayles and Grant Kirkhope on hand once again...
Re: Random: Design Director At The Initiative Teases Upcoming Xbox Game
A new Banjo Kazooie game is long overdue.... (Please)..
Although a new Perfect Dark game would be great..
Re: Reminder: This Is Your Last Chance To Buy Forza Horizon 3 On Xbox
Have the game physically and got the dlc cheap a few weeks back..
Just a quick question, will next gen after I install the game physically on Series X the dlc I paid for would still be ok to download?? I presume yes??

Re: DOOM Eternal Blasts Its Way To Xbox Game Pass In October
@Senua I was just thinking that... Great news... Tempted to sell my physical copy which will probably devalue fast now....
Re: Xbox Series X 1TB Storage Expansion Card Priced At £220 / $220
£219.99.... Even more than I thought, very very expensive....
Just £30.00 less than the price of the Series S itself..
Re: Deals: Over 100 Games, Bundles & Add-Ons In This Week's Xbox Sale (Sep 22-29)
Resident Evil Code: Veronica X at £2.99 is tempting....
