I really hope Microsoft continues their effort to keep these older digital releases available. But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried about all the XBLA games that are 360-exclusive and what their ultimate fate will be. 😰
@Trainer Haha, true. Sony fans used every excuse in the book to discredit cross play as well, now it's talked about like it was always great and a no-brainer. 🙄 There are many parallels to politics in this too.
@KonstantTrouble What do you think social media is? Be it a physical room in a building, an open thread on twitter, or the literal public square outside, one will never be immune to disagreement. A school club with 30 people is NEVER going to have the reach of a top website like FB or Twitter, let's be intellectually honest here. Such disagreements can also lead to consequences for what one might say. That's why I ridicule the far-right for creating literal safe media spaces for themselves, because of the victim complex they project when they get pushback on their views; views that are both extreme and false in many cases, based on what I've read in these enclaves out of personal morbid curiosity.
Hating people over trivial matters like gender or skin colour is beyond pathetic, which ignores real policy and systemic issues, so don't whine when consequence culture (as is a more accurate term) gives one a reality check.
@KonstantTrouble "With fear of censorship, job loss and cancel culture why would you risk being anything but supportive. They have shamed billions of people into silence."
That's why the far right has Gab, Parlor, etc... Coddled conservatives need their safe spaces too, after all, despite claiming to hate them. 😜
@Richnj There's so much contradiction about who's responsible for Goldeneye's cancellation. At this point, I'd put the blame on MGM, since they have the rights to the Bond franchise as a whole.

Re: Talking Point: Should Xbox Continue Its Games With Gold Initiative?
How about just integrate everything into one? Give out the bonus games, while still having Gamepass. Win-win.

Technically Nintendo Network was for 3DS and Wii U, while Switch Online is, naturally, for Switch.
