@JumpingJackson I think we need more people like him in the industry. He had big ambitious dreams for games and he truly believed even if he didn't deliver.
Picked mine up at Target with Halo CE and Silent Hill 2. Landing on the ring was amazing the first time. For whatever reason I thought we would be landing on the planet when I realized I was on the ring I was blown away by the concept. I mainly got the Xbox because of the reviews for Silent Hill 2. They said it looked much better on Xbox and it had a extra section.
I'm looking forward to Halo CE sometime this year. Hopefully they will show off a Fallout 3 or NV remake. FH6 will not doubt be excellent. My only complaint about MS is they have had a really slow out put the past few years until recently.
@BacklogBrad I liked the E3 way better too. Another thing I dislike is showing a game that is multiple years down the road before it is released if it gets released at all.
@rhyno_888 it will let you eventually. I bought the digital copy when it went on sale for 15 bucks about 10 years ago even though I had it on disc. My son always takes off with my games so I usually end up buying a digital copy when they get low enough in price.
@OldGamer999 I agree with that but I will be playing Undead Nightmare. I've had it since release and after all these years I have never got around to playing it. It runs pretty good and looks much nicer too.
If you already have the game with all the dlc which version do you buy to get all the creation club content? Hopefully you don't have to buy it all over again.
@Fiendish-Beaver It can come at any time for any of us but at our age you know it is closer than ever. My brother in law was a big Diablo fan and was really looking forward to it coming out he had a had a heartattack 3 days before. It can happen at anytime.
The Xbox section in the Walmart in my area keeps getting smaller and smaller. You could easily miss it. They have moved the Playstation and Nintendo sections to the front of the isles and the Xbox section is at the very end and hard to find.
@Valhura I think Halo CE is one of the best games ever and I still play it. I liked the others but my favorite will always be the first one. That is the beauty of gaming we can all like the same franchise but love totally different games within that franchise.
Do you have to pay extra for the Halo themed stuff? There are 2 versions of the game on the storefront I'm not for sure what the purpose of the more expensive version offers.

Re: The Top 10 Xbox Game Pass Titles Of 2025, As Determined By Your Votes
Some of the games aren't games I would play but I'm glad to see all the variety of choice we have with GamePass. Oblivion Remastered was my number 1.

@Tasuki I felt the same way about it.

There was not enough variety in the game just one big biome and a promise of campaign dlc that never came.

Re: Microsoft Rewards Is Allowing You To 'Double Your Points' Until Early December
@Kieduss sometimes it just pops up. I search legitimate places, people and things. It still pops up randomly ever now and then.

It is a nice addition to Xbox picked it up for half off.
Re: When Will The Xbox Black Friday Sale 2025 Be Revealed?
@OldGamer999 it wouldn't surprise me if they raised the price of their consoles. They seem to be pricing them out of reach for a lot of families.
Re: Three Big Fixes Coming To Fallout 4 Next Week, Mod Storage To Increase By 50x On Xbox Soon
I like all they've done with fallout 4. Nice to see the game supported this long after release. It is not my favorite fallout but I did like it alot.

Re: Halo: Campaign Evolved Officially Announced, Coming To Xbox In 2026
@Tyrant_T103 I agree with you on that. I wish it was already out.
Re: Fallout 76 Is Officially Getting A Native Xbox Series X|S Version In Early 2026
@Fiendish-Beaver same here I turned 62 in March. With game development taking as long as it does I'm sure I'll be gone by the time they release.

Re: Major Retailer Seemingly Clearing Out Xbox Series Stock In Certain Regions Right Now

Re: Best Buy Lists Prices For ROG Xbox Ally Before Quickly Removing Them
Way over priced for the average gamer.
Re: Forza Fans Speculate Horizon 6 Location With Japanese Kei Cars Confirmed
Japan would be a nice location. I always felt that Hawaii or Alaska would be a nice setting too.
Re: Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 Finally Launches This October
The first game was excellent. You had all the classes too. I hate how they sell games in bits and pieces these days.
