@fabisputza007 the reason PES died was specifically because it refused to change at all since 2007

Badge of honor at this point

That sucks. But not unexpected

@ChromeMud no

Hope this leads to the development of FSR and wider adoption over DLSS

@GamingFan4Lyf so what. FSR is open and available for all GPUs. DLSS is proprietary of nvidia.
No one with two braincells should be rooting for DLSS

Sega will forever be Xbox’s “one that got away”. Wouldn’t like seeing Sega get bought now that they are on top of their game again, MS would just hold them back

@VoidPunk also some of the best rated, what a vapid argument

It’s been a whole lotta nothing for the last few months, so I don’t even have gamepass active atm. I’ll sub for Starfield then we’ll see

@Kevw2006 it could, if they reduced graphical quality. It was a creative decision to reduce framerate instead

@Solidchief if the highlights are rereleases of 20 year old game you know something’s not adding up.

Xbox has 100% opportunity for a home run next week. Wonder how they gon fudge it up

The 360 wired is the one that best fits my hands. But the Series controller is just better

@Joabra01Swe I remember using wireless controllers with a megadrive 30 years ago. It has always been personal preference, little to do with the advancement of technology. Personally i prefer wired unless I’m fairly far away from the console.

Tbf Sega usually is apt at pricing its games. For a long while kid oriented games like Sonic and Monkey Ball were priced under 50$. They are probably looking at big hitters such as Like a Dragon and Persona for the price hike.
Meanwhile games in my european corner have been 70€ since the early 2000s

Hated Oxenfree. Hyped for Cyberfunk

@Sam_TSM you could have the S version of the game available to X users, but i wonder if it wouldn’t be too confusing

@Sam_TSM that's not really how it works.. this is actually the best case scenario: the Series S has a much lower file size since it doesn't use the same resources

EDIT: also, RT and fps aren't an issue in regards to game size, it's mostly textures (and videos maybe?)

this is the age of 4K textures

Nice. It’s a very fun game

God i wish

please don't just be some pachinko thing

@hypnotoad arcade nut here! Still one of the best games ever made

@hypnotoad definitely someone who either never played Sega Rally or was completely bodied at Sega Rally

does it have the Sega Rally feel tho?

@sixrings had us in the first half….

As someone who used a wired 360 controller back in the day, the weight distribution and comfort was much better than the wireless version.
The absence of a battery bump in the back, and no battery weight. It was great.

It's the dpad i'm concerned about.

I mean…it is a 20 year old game…

@PsBoxSwitchOwner they could just keep doing what they have always done. Exclusivity deals and critically acclaimed internal development.
Sony groveling in the mud trying to stop two companies unrelated to them from making deals is not what anyone had in their bingo card when this deal was announced.

Sony is setting themselves up for massive embarrassment at this rate.
They positioned themselves as the absolute losers if this deal goes through.

These ninjas out here really trying to make Forspoken look not-atrocious.

@Chaudy it gets a bit samey halfway through

Big coping on this comment section. Which is very peculiar, given this is an Xbox fan blog.

Xbox strategy is finally starting to show some results. These reports show a momentum shift, lets see if MS can keep it up, and back it up with more good games this gen.

I'm overdosing in Atlus RPGs here....

Looks nice.. but it's no Sega Rally

@wilmer007 unlike the examples of mediums you listed, consoles are a conceptual thing. PS5 and XSX are gaming focused computers with closed software ecosystems. The Switch is a gaming tablet.
Both are far removed from what a SNES or MegaDrive were, but they are still consoles.

As long as people want to plug a box into a TV and play games, consoles will exist one way or the other.

We've been hearing this shlong for 20 years now.
People like to have something connected to the TV to play games. Consoles are going nowhere

As my previous comment was (unjustly) deemed inappropriate, I’ll simply rephrase:

Live and let live people. This isn’t the place to preach, just to enjoy videogames.

@UndyingInsurgent95 EDIT: not the time and place to argue

I freaking love videogames !

@Fenbops sony is still the same company that celebrated kicking Sega off the hardware space, assuming Nintendo would be next (before MS showed up). Their fans share the same mindset.

@stvevan what is the expected backlash of praising one of the best selling most beloved games of the year? At which point should we start ignoring the 30 twitter users that continue to be outraged at things that have nothing to do with the things they are angry about?

@jordan1992 thanks for the input Last of Us avatar

@uptownsoul they should, by significant margin. There are more digital-only Xbox consoles sold than disc-capable. It’s the complete inverse on PS5.

Logic would dictate there are more digital sales than disc sales on Xbox, opposed to the PS5

Awesome achievement. Not even an HP fan, but game looks absolutely fantastic!

too bad this would be the best background imo, really tired of the basic ones

i JUST bought the lunar shift, which is also very very nice

they tricked me fr xD

such a huge list of games i don't want to play

@Snake_V5 too bad this isn’t PurePlaystation, wrong website

@Snake_V5 yea why did they post this empty list ??
