@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.
I was playing Fallout 3 on the 360 the other night and it seemed to run much better than it did before. It never crashed and I didn't have near as much stuttering as I used to have. It made me wonder if closing the store freed up resources that helped the game run better. Has anyone else noticed any difference when playing on it. I do have a Series X but I was playing on the 360 for the nostalgia of it.
@AlwaysPlaying instead of ending the service create a streaming app for Roku, Fire Stick etc. Canceling the service after all these years will only buy them alot of unhappy customers. Especially ones with huge libraries.
My son has thousands of dollars in movies and tv series on Xbox. As soon as they started the service he started using it. His first tv series was Jericho many years ago. The service has been around under various different names for close to 20 years now.
When it comes to back compatible games I wish we could save locally on our console as well as in the cloud. I've been playing Fallout 3 and we had a storm that knocked out the internet for a few days and my only option was to start a new game cause the save was in the cloud. If there is a way of saving locally I haven't found it yet.
The Crew was out for over 4 months before I was able to even get online to play it. It took awhile for them to get the game patched there were a lot of people like me who couldn't get online to play it.
If everyone would have taken the time to read all the details you would have been able to share your games with up to 10 people on your friends list. That would have been great for people like me with a big family. If the kids wanted to play a game together in coop I had to buy multiple copies of the same game. The biggest majority of people were already connected to the net 24/7 even way back then.
@Dalamar73 I agree. Who would have thought back in 2010 that they would drive the Xbox brand to near extinction. Without competition consoles will probably be much more expensive next Gen. Look at the price of the PS5 Pro.
Since they will eventually probably stop producing consoles if the handheld is successful just call it Xbox and as new generations of the handheld is released just number them. Xbox, Xbox 2. Xbox 3 and so on. I personally think the way they name the consoles hurts sales too. My nephew bought a One S thinking he was getting the latest console.
I personally thought Milo was a cool idea and looked forward to it. Talking to Aloy in a Horizon game sounds pretty cool too. I think it would be cool after a big boss battle for your character to give their opinion of how the fight went and what they thought of it. In the middle of a battle you think you got a nice strategy planned out only for your character to say ' I can't believe I'm doing something so stupid but here I go anyway. Implemented the right way could be really cool and really help you to connect to your character in way unheard of today.
@donv2135 if they quit making hardware I think GamePass subscriptions will drop drastically unless Sony lets them put it on the Playstation. Alot of people like the ease of playing on console.
@Fiendish-Beaver when Left4 Dead came out I use to play with a guy that was 83. I hope I live long enough and I'm healthy enough to still be alive when I'm that age. There are more elderly people playing then most people realize.

Re: Microsoft Movies & TV Is Officially Ending, Which Will Have A Big Impact On Xbox
@Gonzo_Me they started selling movies on Xbox in 2006. It is a service that has been apart of Xbox for almost 20 years now.

Re: Xbox Is Adding New Game Save Features, And Hopefully There's More To Come

Re: Xbox Will Bring 'A Lot More' Exclusives To PS5 And Switch 2 In 2025
@Dalamar73 that is still a steep price for most families. Hopefully the economy is in pretty good shape when it releases.
