@abe_hikura I have doubts a xbox handheld would be able to play all of xbox library. If it's going to be cheap, under $400. It's going to have to sacrifice a lot of the quality for it to perform well. Handhelds aren't really powerful, and if it was powerful enough to play series xs games, then batteries may not last more than 20 minutes. Like when the rog ally came out, people complained about the battery.
@AverageGamer oh ok. But no point getting a steam deck if you're not going to make an account, if you're in regions it sells it. Coz you would probably need an account to use it.
@NEStalgia ok yeah I understand. I won't buy anything at £70. If it's 60, I'll think about it, maybe get it on sale. Depends on the game, I'm very picky.
I've switched to PC now, so all my games are digital now.
@mousieone well there's no proof. Unless the publishers come out and say it themselves. Tho I've noticed game sales are really low on xbox compared to others.
Since there are already handheld PCs out there, I don't think a handheld xbox will sell that well. I'd rather get handheld PC that can play both PC and xbox games.
Would have to ask, Why would it make it a great acquisition? What other games have they made? What other games can they make? Palworld might be popular, but you shouldn't buy a studio just because of how popular 1 game is. And just because 1 game is popular, doesn't mean it's good. I've not really checked out this game, but I know I won't like it.
That's actually a decent price. But does it feel nice? I got a razer kishi and the buttons feel terrible.
And is there a PlayStation version? I just like the ◯ ╳ ▢ △ better
Great game. I also enjoyed the 2nd one. I thought the 2nd one would be crap, but when I played it, it was awesome. Better than the first imo. So I'm hoping for a ni no kuni iii. Or more games like this.
@Rodimusprime13 do you mean external USB storage? Coz I have a external USB storage on my PS4, it's usually connected to the back, but it works perfectly fine on the 2 at the front too.
@TheOfficialJW I don't play any of those games. And there are still some games that aren't crossplay, like monster hunter rise. But maybe in the future, we'll see more crossplay games.
It wasn't for me. My mum got it as a free gift with her phone contract. Never really used it. But when I did want to use it, it had the red ring of death. So no good memories of it.
@AnVold just use steam. And set it as big picture mode on start up. So as soon as you turn it on, it will just show you all the games you have downloaded. And you can use your controller to navigate. Just like consoles. It's also cheaper than having multiple consoles or being forced to pay for online. Online is free on PC. So it works cheaper long term.
I kinda wish consoles do end and everyone switches to PC gaming or handheld. That way, I won't have to worry if a games going to be crossplay or not hehe. I just want all my friends on 1 same platform, so I can play with all of them.
@PsBoxSwitchOwner if you're going to spend money to buy all systems, might as well just get a PC only, coz you can play almost every game on PC. And exclusives will eventually reach PC.
My vote option isn't there, so I chose not interested in them.
If it's a game I haven't played and there's a remake and I want to play it, I'd be interested in buying the remake. Remaster maybe, but if controls are outdated, then no.
If it's a game I played before and there's a newer version/remake/remaster then no. I wouldn't buy the same game twice. Maybe if there's a big sale tho or if it's cheap.
I would like to see a party based rpg with action based combat. With tanks and healers involved. In a nice beautiful setting. No space, sci fi, guns, robots.
@GhanaViking gimme a list of live service games. N I'll pick one from the list. I don't really know what games are live service haha. I just know that I played a bit of sea of thieves and it was crap.

Re: Major Game Maker Reportedly Questioning Xbox Support Amidst 'Falling Sales'
@NEStalgia but I've also heard them say it looks good. So why wait for it come to gamepass and not a sale, instead?
Yeah I've used gamepass to try games to see if I like it or not, n if I like it, I'd buy it. I no longer have gamepass now, though.
Re: Major Game Maker Reportedly Questioning Xbox Support Amidst 'Falling Sales'
Since they didn't confirm who said those, they could be making it all up.
Re: Major Game Maker Reportedly Questioning Xbox Support Amidst 'Falling Sales'
The thing I noticed about xbox fans is that they often say "I'll wait for it to come to gamepass".
Buy the damn game if you like it lol.
Re: Xbox Boss On Handheld Rumours: Hardware Team Considering Different 'Form Factors'
@AverageGamer can get steam app on the phone too and buy from there or on their website. So not only accessible through a PC.
Re: Rumour: Resident Evil 9 Could Go Open World Thanks To Dragon's Dogma 2
I'm just interested in monster hunter. But if they have ridiculous micro transactions too, then I'll probably avoid it.

Re: Palworld Dev 'Open' To Acquisition Offers, But Hasn't Talked To Xbox
Would have to ask,
Why would it make it a great acquisition?
What other games have they made?
What other games can they make?
Palworld might be popular, but you shouldn't buy a studio just because of how popular 1 game is. And just because 1 game is popular, doesn't mean it's good. I've not really checked out this game, but I know I won't like it.

Re: Talking Point: In Your Opinion, What Made The Xbox 360 Era So Incredible?

@AnVold why, what's wrong with PC? It's a lot more customisable and can always upgrade whenever you want.

Re: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Producer Defends Lack Of Xbox Series X|S Release
@StylesT ff7remake is different and way better than 16. Please try that out and see how it is before skipping it
Re: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Producer Defends Lack Of Xbox Series X|S Release
Sega said the opposite about Yakuza, when they went from being exclusive on PlayStation to multiplatform. And have been more successful.
Square enix just chatting crap, which is why I'll never buy another game off them.
