I've been playing at 40fps with visuals on and my son thought I was playing at 60fps. I think all games should have a 40 fps option. The maps are very detailed they put alot of thought and effort into this uodate.

@rustyduck I enjoyed Redfall too.

I played it for a few days when it released but it was just a to cartoony for me to really get into.

@LoquaciousB same here.

They are probably going to combine a few of those teams into existing studios. They will probably try and cut down the time it takes to make a game. Taking 6 years or more to make a game doesn't seem sustainable for the long term health of the gaming industry.

@Romans12 same here. I had a great time with the game.

I usually compare the 2 and pick what feels best. Some games are fine at 30fps others not so much.

Other than the fact that it seems to run better I don't see a difference in the two versions. After the update I deleted my game and just downloaded the series x version cause I thought I was running the wrong version.

I thought it was very good.

@ChopperCampbell thank. I have never tried cross play and figured voice chat across the systems would work the same.

What is the point of Discord when Xbox has had voice chat for years? I've never used it to so what are the benefits to using Discord?

@Weapon_Wheel same here

@Beetlebum91 it is a pretty good squad based shooter.

Hopefully they add more from the OG Xbox My kids were big fans of Brute Force, they still have the game in mint condition but no way to play it.

When the nextgen update comes out I plan on giving Fallout 4 another playthrough.

@Weebleman you have to subscribe to their service before you can play a game you own. I own a few PS3 games that are digital and can't play them on the PS5.

@Blastfemur they were just as dead from the hanging. 14 women and 5 men to be exact.

It's a shame they will not put out a patch to allow you to play some of these offline. The Crew is a good example, after all these years I still load it up just to cruise around.

I hate all the different tiers that different services have these days. I let PS Plus expire because of the prize increase that went into effect that I believe was put in place to keep the price of Sony's top tier from increasing.

If they release Halo, Gears or Forza on Playstation they'll kill Xbox and GamePass.

@StonyKL get a decent antenna and you'll have more stuff than ever to watch. I bought a Mohu leaf Ultimate for my tv and I pick up over 60 stations.

@armondo36 Sony will never put Playstation games on Xbox. They will just hold out for Xbox to go under which it has slowly been doing for 10 years under poor management.

@StylesT I think putting Starfield, Halo, Gears or any of their major titles on PS5 will kill the Xbox brand and quite possibly kill GamePass. Most people will just dump Xbox and get a Playstation. They'll have the best of both worlds. Sony will never allow GamePass on Playstation, as people move to Playstation they will let their GamePass subscription expire and never look back. MS is taking a big risk putting their exclusives on other consoles.

@__jamiie I'm 61 and feel the same way.

@Para1966 I think I'll do the same.

@Odium I plan on getting Alan Wake 2 eventually I did enjoy the first one.

Starfield was my number 1 game and Redfall was my number 2. I enjoyed both a lot. Happy Holidays everyone and have fun playing your favorite games of the year.

Custom soundtracks for Forza Horizon since they removed custom soundtracks I hardly ever play it. I miss listening to BTO while cruising the countryside.

I'm sure some of those games could be patched to allow you to play them offline. The Crew is a good example. The Crew is a good game to play alone even though it is a online game.

@Kaloudz same here

@CenturianShark If your hands are like mine they aren't as nimble as they use to be. I'm 60.

I'll be playing when it lands on Xbox.

Halo Combat Evolved.

@Jey887 I enjoyed the start of the game and have enjoyed it.

When Dusk Falls

@ApostateMage my son bought that game when it first came out. It didn't look like a game I would like but a couple years later I put it in and didn't stop playing until I unlocked every achievement. Mass Effect is a great game.

Silent Hill 2 on the OG Xbox, Forza 2 on the Xbox One, Halo on the Series X.

@Dbzilla1217 I misread what he said.

@Master_Cthulhu70 you can pick up a used copy on disc. They are still out there. I picked up a extra copy of 1 & 2 a few months back.

Red Dead I don't like anything about the GTA series.

Playing Halo 2 online and Left 4 Dead. Great times and a lot of fun.

I didn't take his comment as rude but I did take it as very confident. I do hope that confidence is warranted. I have high hopes for Starfield.

BC on Xbox is a big plus among other features. The movie store is nice with all the latest titles, we can play CDs, and we get the exclusives day one with Game Pass.

@PartyMarty I need to play it as well.

@Total_Weirdo I saw Xbox advert the other day on Netflix and that was the first one I had seen in years. I have the cheap Netflix plan that has commercials.

I got the OG to play Silent Hill 2 after reading it was better looking on Xbox and had extra playable levels and another character you could play. I picked Halo up when I made my purchase. I was 38 and had just gotten out of the hospital, I had a heart attack and was told I would need complete bedrest for a few months. Halo really helped kill the boredom and Silent Hill 2 looked amazing. Everyone else I knew had Playstation 2 and after seeing Silent Hill 2 on it I knew I made the right decision. My kids became diehard Xbox fans after playing Halo MP together.

Even apps like Netflix ran better on XBL than they did on PSN. PSN was horrible and it wasn't until years after they started charging for it did you see improvements. It still had stability issues after the PS4 came out. I didn't like paying for XBL but it was the better experience over PSN for years. I personally think they both should offer online play and voice chat for free but that will never happen.

@GamingFan4Lyf PSN on the PS3 was unstable at best and unplayable at worse. PSN improved alot after they started charging for it.

@Lightning720 I don't see the problem either. Some people might want GamePass but not online play because they don't play online and want to save a little money. I can't remember the last time I played online, i might switch to GamePass console myself.

I'm looking forward to it and expect it to be pretty good.
