EVIL-C

If you get stuck in a game, we have this thing called YouTube. It usually works really well.

Copilot is also garbage.

Mixtape, Directive 8020 and 007, hell yeah 😎

Also, bring back the Gold tier for those of us who don't want any form of GP, so we can play online. Or better still, make basic online play free. 🧐

Just more evidence that GamePass wasn't sustainable. Probably still isn't, but hey, a small win with the lower price is a win, at least for now.

Looks fantastic. Plague Tale is an amazing series.

COD seriously needs to end. It's an awful series.

I don't even see discount deals on GamePass anymore. While I only subbed every now and then, I have zero interest in these subscriptions.

This question is 5 years too late. Don't buy into Xbox anymore if it's one's first time. Get a PS5 or wait for more info on Helix.

3 turds flushed permanently. No tears shed.

@Scrubchub Until she starts producing results, any qualifications are merely being assumed. Phil and Sarah had qualifications and look where Xbox ended up.

@16BitHero That's just sad 😢 💔, as social media is the lamest, most uninteresting, not to mention most toxic thing one can pay attention to, especially for kids.

You want to talk race at the bottom? Start with the entire unaffordable late stage capitalist/neoliberal hyper-financialized, debt-obsessed hellscape we all live in now. 🤮

That's a horrible list. Wow... 🤦‍♂️

@Broosh I want to see stuff like Vigilante 8 Arcade, Mercs 2, Dino Crisis 3 and Burnout 3, just for starters. 🥹

@Globo There's many "Switch 2 Edition" releases thus far.

She'll be feeling like (Tyson) Chicken tonight, LTCT... 🍗🐔

@Gemini53 Sadly, and thus the entrenchment of enshitification persists... 😢

@Gemini53 I've got oldie friends who have ditched physical media 100%, are fully on the AI slop bandwagon and pretty much only care about new releases and the same cookie cutter stuff from studios like Ubisoft, so it's not just the younger crowds succumbing to this crap.

Not once was gaming mentioned. Combined with the AI and insurance focus... Ugh good lord.... 🤦‍♂️

There's really no reason to be optimistic about Xbox's future. I see PC intergration as being kinda interesting, especially if Xbox could also access the plethora of PC storefronts like Steam, Epic, GOG, plus the MS store on top of it, and have otherwise PC exclusive games and demos all work on the hardware. That could be cool, but the confidence in the brand is in the toilet at this point.

@Doomcrow Irrelevant, but like that's a bad thing they know each other? AOC is exactly what the US needs to wash away the far-right maga poison. Chump was besties with Jeff for 10+ years, btw. I'd suggest to recalibrate your moral compass.

If Xbox wasn't already BBQed chicken before today's announcement, oh man....🤦‍♂️ Expecting the new leadership to be even bigger pawns in the brands further descent into irrelevance.

Embarrassing look for the game awards as well to close on this turd. Absolutely unbelievable... 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️

@Darylb88 Usually I find the States of play pretty awful but this one was excellent. Being huge Horror, retro/retro inspired fan that I am, there was a lot for me. (A new CV and Silent Hill alone is a win 😍)

@smoreon I skipped MGS GBC/Ghost Babel at the time due to not knowing what Metal Gear was, and the high prices for it in subsequent years always kept me away.
I enjoyed the original MG, and I still have to play MG2, so more of that style of play from Ghost Babel sounds exciting to me.

Thrilled to see MGS4 finally getting a new life on modern platforms! I originally played through the entire series on the PS3 Legacy Collection and it was fantastic, and I'm dying to play through 4 again. Plus the addition of Ghost Babel is incredible. 😍

@Elbow On top of their other trends of selling low quality burnt CD-Rs, Scott pilgrim still requiring an online check to work, repro carts that were corroded, releasing random crap like Plumbers and Bill & Ted that no one wanted, just to name a few. They're a garbage company.

With the ever-increasing enshitification of digital stores and streaming services, I've only doubled down harder on physical media in recent years. 💿🧐

Closing out TGA with another arena shooter, a free one at that, was diabolical. 🤦‍♂️ Such a massive disappointment.

@Fiendish-Beaver Pricecharting will give you a decent idea of what individual pieces of your collection are worth. 🙂 https://www.pricecharting.com/

@Kezelpaso Most of us hate Legendary ripoff games. They're a cancer.
If I get HFR, it'll be via one of our indie stores in Canada.

At this point, there's no point in buying a next Xbox. PS6 will have every Microsoft game, plus all of Sony's exclusives. It's a no-brainer. 💡

@TheOfficialJW The best question is what's wrong with playing any old piece of hardware in 2025?
To even ask such a stupid, ignorant question is baffling. I beat a few 360 games in 2025. Sue me. 🧐

@OldGamer999 With the price of GamePass now, Xbox wins the bleed you dry award. 🧐

@BacklogBrad Nintendo would actually remind Xbox that they used to focus on games, and that exclusives still matter.

I couldn't think of a more successful gaming company to run a gaming studio. 🧐

Losing the PD reboot is inexcusable. i've got my Switch 2, I'll probably get a PS6, and I have absolutely zero desire at this point for another Xbox console. I hate what MS has done with Xbox. The brand is at it's lowest, most undesirable point it's ever been at. Truly sad and pathetic.

Beyond embarrassing for Xbox. The brand is dying. The execs destroyed it. Xbox peaked with 360. ❤️

Seriously, a F2P shooter being the final announcement was just embarrassing. TGA this year was a letdown in terms of new reveals.

@FraserG It's only for accounts who've never subbed. I haven't been able to get the $1 offer for several years at this point, and I'm not a regular GP user. 😢

@UndyingInsurgent95 Perfectly summed up. Netflix, much like game pass, is getting way too expensive. I'm also a hardcore gamer and I have absolutely zero interest in the gaming side of Netflix, yet I have to pay for something I don't use. Madness.

@cragis0001 You won't be happy when you see how much the price skyrockets, nor have the option to visit a theatre. Some movies were just meant for the big screen that the home just can't replicate.

We live in hell... 💔😭

@Gabrie Download and give it a try, it's fantastic. 💻 😉

I expected nothing, because Xbox as a brand is both dying and blazing its way at full-speed to irrelevance.

After MS killed off the PD reboot, that sealed the deal for me. That was my #1 most anticipated title. PD is my favourite FPS of all time. We just don't get these spy-themed shooters anymore.
But after what happened, I really have zero desire for any future Xbox hardware, nor much desire to continue with the brand. Xbox used to be my 3rd party game console and even those I find myself picking more up on PS5, out of my sheer disappointment with the terrible decisions MS has made. MS betrayed us, in many ways.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner Laptop Gun, one of the best weapons ever in any FPS. 😍

@Balaam_ PS5 version isn't garbage. 🤔

@Gabrie Umm, no. PS5 has crushed Xbox 3 to 1, S2 has sold over 10M units already, and the top selling 1st party titles list of Nintendo is staggering. MS is the only one going to struggle massively next gen. If it's mainly just beefed up and little else, and there's zero exclusives, there's no reason for the masses to buy it. I'm about ready to bail cause I rarely use GP and there's no exclusives anymore.
