I think those will he 1., 2. And 3. though, knowing the internet.
But I’m mostly looking forward to the cool physics stuff people come up with. Maybe somebody will make a mod to include the functionality of ultra hand (from Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom) to this game. That would be very cool!
All I know xbox has saved me a lot of money last year with game pass. All those awesome indies and a few big budget games I usually buy physical for switch I have now played with use of my subscription on my xbox series x or on my phone with remote play or via the cloud.
Their service just rocks. It’s a complete package. And I can’t wait for their upcoming exclusives which they’ll be ramping up from now on now that the ABK deal is done. As others have said they’re now completely in for the long run.
And the only games I feel I am missing out on on PS5 only (and not on PS4) are the final fantasy games which we’ll get to see on pc or xbox anyway.
I really gave it a D. Could have been less. Absolutely don’t like the setup of the game awards. There’s almost no time for the awards themselves, most awards go by in a bleep. It’s just one big advertisement.
@JaffeGaffe good idea. There are a lot of rpg arcade games in starcraft that are great! Copying those and implementing them in a ‘destiny 2 style’ or something might be a big opportunity for Blizzard.
@HonestHick i agree with you on the stance of Blizzard. I was a huge fan, even a bit zealous, of everything Starcraft and Warcraft. Such a shame Metzen, Michael Morhaime and Pearce left, and most of the top of Activision-Blizzard did those outrageous stuff to their employees. Made me quit Blizzard games all-together. Hopefully Spencer and his team is able to improve circumstances of the Blizzard team again and enough.
@rustyduck because it will eat away sales of mw3, and there is still this deal between activision and sony, and I think there’s somewhere in that deal that cod is not allowed on any subscription service.
Yeah, Square is feeling the pain of ps5 exclusiveness at home in Japan, with the switch dominating over there. Apparently their investors are not really happy with how SE is performing lately. They want to release final fantasy vii and xvi on the switch 2 next year, and xbox will profit of that as well.
This game is apparently also very prone / open for modders. It’ll be a game that one can return to every couple of years to experience what the community has done with it in the mean time.
I don’t trust all these xbox only delays. Feels to me a bit like these developers are getting a last minute check from Sony for some sort of timed exclusivity deal.
Give me a dedicated handheld and/or all the turn based rpg’s I can get on game pass or a way to play my library on xcloud and it’s a go!
Action games, fighters, fps and platformers are not suitable for xcloud. Action adventures and especially puzzle games and turn based or strategy rpg’s are very well suited for cloud gaming. So we need more or easier access to those types of games. I’d play it on the train, in the park or on the toilet at work.
@CutchuSlow apparently he helped remove restrictions on Microsoft side for for instance being able to communicate cross-platform. If I have listened to SpawnWave correctly.
@blaa If Xbox gets FF7R I will not touch my ps4 again and I won’t buy a PS5. All games will eventually come to other platforms anyway. And I’m not liking the way Sony is moving (live service games, a little bit of VR here and there and only one or two other first party releases per year) so it feels I can ignore that platform altogether.
Also, I don’t like Marvel stuff that much so I am not one who buys a PS5 for Spiderman 2 or Wolverine. God of War would have pushed me over the edge but that became a PS4 game.
@UltimateOtaku91 there’s a lot of assuming on Pushsquare when communicating with that community.
There is no bad guy in this whole story. Or rather, multiple bad guys who want consumer’s money. And you get that by having a great catalog of games that you can lure those consumers with. I absolutely don’t get the whole ‘microsoft needs to be stopped’ narrative. If anything, I love game developers to have a great budget so they can make the best games possible.
@Grumblevolcano @rmg0731 @ultimateotaku91 as you can read, none of these have been acquired by microsoft. In fact, one of these has been acquired by the market leader: Sony.
@Banjo- yeah. Maybe the sister sites should have a conversation with each other on how to bring the news.
The titles of the articles on pushsquare alone makes that community foaming at their mouths. Writing stuff like ‘wishy washy, ‘talkative Spencer, Xbox insinuates, etc.’ just only serves one purpose.
@UltimateOtaku91 a dedicated handheld would be ideal indeed. I think they hoped a 3d party would step into that glaring omission, like Steam or Logitech.
But not needing to carry anything extra around made me forget I was using touch screen while playing Persona. For that game it’s worth the trade-off in my opinion. Call of Duty would be a completely different ballgame.
@UltimateOtaku91 xbox just needs more strategy or turn-based rpg’s and puzzle games. Those games suit best on xcloud. I really enjoyed playing persona on my phone via cloud because latency absolutely doesn’t matter.
I recon all older snes rpg’s and final fantasy games will perform very well on the service. Shame square enix is such a weird company lately.
@PSme @zoidpilot4 i also follow all three sister sites. There’s also a difference in how the articles on the sites are written, with playstation being more of a fansite than purexbox site, which feels a bit more like a journalism site in my opinion. And the communities following suit.
To put it frankly, without xbox Playstation would be or would go to sh*t. I’m happy we have at least three good eggs in the console space basket.
@InterceptorAlpha I think Microsoft should do a re-release of some sorts just to show how much the game has improved / expanded over the years. It’s quite a lot!
I hate sony for doing stuff like this, making another version feel a little bit inferior. It’s the same reason they are doing the marketing deals or the three day early access deals. It works, but I don’t like it.

That’s what my guts are telling me at least.
Re: Starfield's Game Pass Upgrade Is Currently The Best-Selling Item On Xbox

It’s definitely a hit for a subscription service.
