@GamingFan4Lyf part of the issue is people/devs/companies respond which just encourages and perpetuates the community behavior. Which realistically is like, what, 0.1% of it anyway.
@Titntin Yeah people's preferences are so fun to hear. Like I can't fathom how people like the PS5 controller. I would love to be able to hook up my xbox controller to my PS5. I find it big, bulky, and I truly, 100% despise the triggers. The novelty was cool for a moment but I don't understand how people's finger literally don't get tired by pulling against the force trigger. Anyway, glad we have choices!
@munstahunta oh I read. I just don’t see anywhere where it was promised it could do the same frame rate at any given time at lesser resolutions. That’s a simplification to assume it scales equally just because resolution is decreased. Maybe they’ll adjust it. Maybe not.
@Blessed_Koz Except there’s a huge difference between Microsoft saying something vs allowing an acquisition to retain publishing and developing independence, which, if the press release is to be believed—Sony is allowing Bungie to do. Those terms were probably unacceptable to Green Team and I get why.
IF this is true this could explain why Microsoft didn’t reacquire it. Multiplat could have been a hardline for Bungie. No way Microsoft is dropping $Bs to not do exclusivity.
Took me 24 hours to LASO Infinite and that was the perfect length. I'm ok with 30 hours. Any longer and it starts to feel bloated with disconnected stories or too silly 'collectibles'
Infinite was a perfect example of appropriate time to 100%. Took me 24 hours on Legendary. That's the kind of time I want to commit to a game, otherwise it can get very repetitive ala Assassin's Creed.
Andromeda... fight me. It had a good story that wasn't 'fate of the entire galaxy in the hands of one person' and did a good job establishing political issues while having interesting dungeon designs.
The Seagate expansion was a day one purchase for me. 2TB (combined) seems to be a sweet spot with the current size of games. May need more by the end of this generation though. I wish the console was better at just treating it as a unified storage instead of internal + external.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Players Frustrated With 30FPS On Xbox Series S
You knew when you bought a Series S it was less powerful. You save $200 and then you complain when it can’t do what the $500 console can.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077: Everything Included In The Huge New Patch (1.5)
Hm. Still waiting on New Game+. Odd because Witcher had it so quickly. Honestly I played at launch on Series X and loved it.
Re: Halo Infinite Nail Polish Collab Confuses Fans Who Wanted DLC
Bought on Amazon. Submitted Receipt. Got code. Redeemed. Cancelled Amazon order. It was that easy.

Re: Battlefield 2042 Draws Significant Criticism In Its Opening Weekend
I feel strongly that it’s just “in” to dunk on games. As if FOMO and schadenfreude had a psychological baby. Especially since Cyberpunk.
Re: Phil Spencer Celebrates Nintendo GameCube Anniversary By Sharing His Favourite GC Game
Super Mario Sunshine was an absolute blast and Luigi’s Mansion was so unique too!
Although I played the crap out Rogue Squadron.
I have phenomenal memories playing the stupid Super Monkey Ball party games with my family too!
Re: Rumour: It Looks Like We Know When Elden Ring Is Getting Revealed
@Sakai like how Xbox players can enjoy Bloodborne?
Re: Microsoft & The Rock Are Giving Away Xbox Series X Mini Fridges
I actually... would buy one. I’m slightly ashamed of myself. But I would...

Re: Halo's Live-Action Series Is Now A Paramount Plus Exclusive
@Vinsanity I’m a weirdo and enjoy CBSAllAccess/Paramount+. I pay for it and watch it a lot.
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Praises Nintendo's Zelda Franchise On Its 35th Anniversary
@Lajt I would normally agree. Phil strikes me as a pretty decent guy, though.

Re: Yes, Your Grace Has Exploded In Popularity With Xbox Game Pass
Yep. Surprising gem. I played it and beat it earlier this week. It’s a great game.
