This looks good except for the fact that we just got the option to have a solid color background that didn't show game art when you stopped on a tile.

I'll check it out eventually just for the location.
It's the only way you can fire a gun in Massachusetts without worrying about a mandatory jail sentence! 😆

I've only played the Resident Evil HD remaster from this list. I couldn't get into it.
I'm having a good time with Revelations though but I've been stuck on a boss for a while.

@BRT15 that's a fun one. I have yet to play more than five minutes without it devolving into a shootout with the whole sheriff's department
The downside is I haven't gotten far.

@Cikajovazmaj That's true about ray tracing, but that line was more about a general gripe I have w/ them that made me lose interest in their videos.

I've been chipping away at the 360 version on BC for a while. It looks good enough for me to not be tempted by the remake.

I couldn't care less about ray tracing.
Digital Foundry nitpicks things that most people will never notice.
When you're zooming in to see a graphical difference, it doesn't really matter.

I wouldn't mind if they knocked $60 off the Series X.

Looking forward to Hogwarts Legacy on Xbox this year.

I hate it when I miss out on a banned troll's comments...

@UltimateOtaku91 "and I'd be happy to give it."
Thanks for making me laugh this morning!!

Halo 5 & Infinite MP and Tales of Zestiria.

Auto HDR, FPS boost and quick resume are my favorite things. Being able to suspend a game instead of grinding to a save point makes playing a lot more pleasant.
The controller improvements are nice too.

Bring the Halo 4 maps to infinite. I would love to play Adrift, Complex and Panic Station swat again.

Nier automata, Resident Evil Revelations and P5R on series S.
I have to echo the praise for quick resume. There have been plenty of times where I've had to play 45 minutes past what I wanted to on PS4 just to hit a save point for P5R. It'll work for nier automata too, which makes me happy.
I'm also eyeing Trails of Cold Steel on the PS4 November sale.

Jedi Outcast on PC in like 2004.
I played a lot of Atari 2600 when I was younger and got some good high scores, but they weren't games w/ endings.
I think I got like 112k on Seaquest. That was the highest I ever got. I loved that game.

How about they scrap it and build more maps and modes for Halo 5 multiplayer???
I connected my external storage today and was surprised to see Infinite was there. That'll be an easy 22gb to reclaim when I need it!!

@Member_the_game I ask that every month and the answer is always Yes!!!

This one made my day.

I did not see the Persona games coming to xbox anytime soon, so that was great. I'm like 54 hours into P5R, which was my reason for buying a PS4 last year. I'll make the call about starting over in October. P3 and P4 are day ones for me though. I love the idea of playing good JRPGs on xbox.
Overwatch 2 looks cool too.
Edit: I suspect the novelty of P5R on xbox will win out in Oct.

I've been impressed with how good KOTOR and Red Dead Redemption look and play on the series S.
I picked up KOTOR on the switch and it doesn't look nearly as good.

I bought a PS4 just to play P5R. It would be great if it came to xbox or PC, but I'm not starting over at this point.

@Richnj "Seriously, can we finally admit that GAAS doesn't create quality content, just filler?."

Well put. It's a series of sugar highs tacked onto a game that's not as good as its predecessors.

Sounds like they might need bots to backfill the player exodus.

@themightyant that's a great rule, and so true!
I have far more than I'll ever want to play.
I've had the same feeling too, that something that was supposed to be for leisure now feels like a burden. I've taken to putting consoles away for a while and taking them out when I want to use them.

I've peaked at gold in my 1000+ hours with 4 & 5. I may have hit diamond for a day in 5. What a day that was!

This looks great but I tend to go switch for these types of games. I'll wait and see how they run before deciding, but realistically they should run well on switch.

@darkswabber I got lost in the fourth idolasphere in TMS and dropped the game. I need to get back to it. I really like the combat and the game was fun.
I enjoy playing on switch a lot more than WiiU. The novelty of using the gamepad to get texts wore off really quickly there, especially since I preferred using a pro controller.

@FatalBubbles This is 343 you're talking about. It took them like 5 years to get the Master Chief collection right...

@NEStalgia I pre-ordered it and played about 2.5 hours. It looks great and plays fine to me, but feels like a slog already. I can't bring myself to pick it back up again.

@AdamCorela If anything it will be Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight!

Looking forward to playing this on series s. Also glad I picked up Soul Hackers for $10 on sale last year in the 3ds eshop.

Final Fantasy X on switch.
I got Deus Ex Mankind Divided, SW Squadrons and Everspace on the lunar new year xbox sale, so I'll be checking those out too.
Got them all for like $22. What a deal!

I only have gold for the multi-player but that doesn't stop the disappointment every month.
We've gotten some heavy hitters in years past. Now it feels like an afterthought.

Bobby K's days are numbered! Good riddance.
I think Microsoft would be crazy to make CoD exclusive. That's a lot of money to leave on the table.

@Xiovanni old school team armor colors would be great. I've been killed because I didn't realize players were on the other team.
I also miss the post round stats from older games where you could easily scroll through all the players.

KOTOR, Bloodstained and Halo 5 / Infinite mp on XSS. I reinstalled Infinite to give it another chance. I still think it pales in comparison to 5 for mp.
I may try to push past the blitzball tournament on FFX on switch.
I'm also getting the urge to start SMT strange journey redux on 2DS xl.

First cat ears, now a neon mohawk. I'm surprised they don't have an actual halo ring. Maybe that's next season....

I can finally get those cat ears I've been dreaming about.

I'm tempted to get start wars squadron. That new game Chorvs looks like a better space shooter, but it's not on sale so I'll wait a while on that one.

I was poking around on the xbox store a couple weeks ago and saw that the add to cart button was active for the halo edition series x. I couldn't belive it, so after a moment's hesitation I added it to the cart but it kept erroring out when I tried to check out.
I looked again the next day, but the button was grayed out.

These customizations are destroying the aesthetic of the game. It feels like they're burning the house down to make some fast cash.
They're going to chase the diehards away with this crap. Who will be left once the novelty has worn off and people move on to the next hot f2p shooter?
I personally don't like infinite mp at all. To me it's a big drop in quality from halo 5 so I won't be around to see it happen..

I'm pretty tepid on Infinite mp so far. Maybe swat or super Fiesta will change that.

I'm holding out for the $20 Gucci skin!

It's annoying to have such limited free customization.
I for one won't be buying anything.
It's too bad because changing armor and colors is a fun way to kill time between matches. I liked the halo 4 model the best, where you earned customizations as you went along. I've got over 600 hours in halo 5 mp and I still don't have everything.

I was holding out for a series X but saw that the series S was in stock a few months ago, so I got one. I love it.
The fast boot and load times are awesome, but the real winner for me is the HDR enhancements. Old (and not so old) games look and run great.
For me it's been a worthwhile upgrade even though I have yet to play a next gen game on it. Of course, that'll change on Dec 8.

@Richnj @SplooshDmg - Thanks. I must have really been out of it yesterday to totally misread that!

I'd grab the star wars games for nostalgia if they're bc.
Red red redemption might be good too so I could check out the undead dlc.

I got Underworld and Anniversary. Can't resist $3 games.

This sounds cool, but I wonder how many people are going to fry their consoles trying to save a few dollars.
