@kmtrain83 Sure it's a problem for all the suits in the companies I'm sure theres some people who would love a next gen console out tomorrow but I'm still more than happy with the series X at this point in it's lifecycle for the quality it produces. With the 360 and Xbox one I was more looking for to newer machines at this point in there lifecycle compared to now!
Music to my ears and what I've been mentioning should happen with next gen on here. If Microsoft expects any success with the next gen console they need to do this! Just keep the machine displaying at 4k because 8k is pointless and not needed and make the weaker version more powerful than the series X and it could do well the vast majority of people don't want to spend a grand ona console especially an Xbox one which it's future would be up in the air for some time without big sales
Can't wait to play it I loved the first game and dlc so can't wait for this! Getting a sneaky feeling it won't be as good as the original but hopefully I'm wrong! This is the type of game you talk to every NPC just for the giggles ha!
@Kloppo The series x if it can be updated with the pc like capabilities of the next gen console yes.
But only if it can be updated like that otherwise it would basically be a Xbox one x rather than a series s for next gen so basically useless for current gen games IE next gen games!
If you get what I'm saying haha
It's only really the companies dying for next gen most gamers would happily keep there current machines for a couple more years yet! Whatever it is it's going to be very very expensive! Next gen Xbox needs a series s type model aswell as the overpriced hyper model more than ever!
Great article I started the franchise with fable 2 so I never played the original game but I might play the anniversary before the new one drops especially if it holds up as well as the article makes out!
Only problem I see is if you want to buy it it's 31.99 euros to buy on sale on the Xbox store hahaha pull the other one I'll just play on gamepass it should realistically be a tenner or lower on sale it's a 360 remaster of an original Xbox game!
Good for them especially considering there's new indie games released basically daily on the Xbox store to stand out from the crowd is a big achievement!
@OldGamer999 To be honest I haven't seen much about the second game purposely to go in somewhat blind I loved the humour in the first game so this should be a joy to play I hope you enjoy it buddy
I'll be playing helldivers 2 onwards to cyberstan!!
Arrowhead are really going all out with this story arc with the automations hacking the DSS and also the companion app!
But don't believe there propaganda fellow divers total victory is the only option!
Also playing indika it's dark weird funny and I have no idea whats happening but I love it.
Happy gaming my friends enjoy your weekend.
@Exerion76 Looks pretty good for a console with less power than a Xbox one x which was a last gen machine! Every single new game released won't look as well on the series s it's just a fact now I mostly game on my series x on the big TV but the odd time I use the series s on the smaller TV you can't really see to much of a difference.
Those guys deserve some money back if they dropped money on a special edition of that game!
I played and finished the campaign it wasn't good but I never get things like this for some reason even things in due that other people get.
They still take my money for gamepass though no problem at all every month like clockwork funny isn't it.
Getting Netflix Amazon prime or paramount plus bundle with gamepass would be a great move the other gaming subscriptions on consoles don't excite me though!
@Stocksy Me either and i actually checked up on indika before deciding whether I should play but the company although founded in Russia originally after the war broke out they moved to Kazakhstan and have publicly denounced the war and the murder hungry regime headed by the angry midget Putin!
@Stocksy That's very true I don't normally take such stances but I've been to Ukraine a couple times obviously before the war and I have extended family from Ukraine directly effected by this war with relatives still in Ukraine right now so I couldn't support such a game not because it's Russian made game I'm playing indika right now and love it.
But because atomic heart it funded possibly partially by the russian federation which is there government who are bombing innocent people daily!
I just can't do it but I agree with what you are saying life's to short!
Hopefully please god fallout 3 remaster drops this year I played the original the death when it first came out! But nice to hear that gears E-day will be coming this year I hope it's like the original trilogy.
Looking forward to seeing how these games run in the switch 2 and while I did find starfield a bit dull it's not a terrible game definitely not as bad as some people are making out especially in it's current form!
What happens when this ram shortage ends after the prices had been constantly getting higher I don't think whoever sells/makes them will be in a rush to sell them on the cheap again! Why push out new consoles we don't really need right now where the parts needed cost so much more money than ever before! In ten years when all this is over will we have a new console or whatever is about then come out 400 to 500 quid and drop in price constantly?? I don't think so!
@InterceptorAlpha Thats fair enough my friend and I only mentioned atomic heart because you are boycotting this game over that dude and I wouldn't play atomic heart over that connection. Your free to do as you please but I wouldn't boycott a game because one dude who probably had little to do with the actual making of the game was a pig. But everyone is different you do you buddy
@InterceptorAlpha Just because one dude was pervy and abused his power who was involved in the game doesn't mean you really need to boycott it I'm sure loads of people did far more work on the game than that guy and where lovely people! If any game deserves a boycott it's atomic heart as it's funded by the russian government aka Vladimir Putin!
Nothing ever really there for me now the world of tanks freebies where great back when they gave them away but I don't really play that no more anyways ha.
Fortnite is also mostly the top played game on Xbox so you can see why that deal seemed good for Microsoft it must be a big part of the player base on console and or gamepass.
It's most likely kids being arses on cod or Fortnite giving each other grief!
I remember in the 360 days getting people sending me crazy voice messages going mental playing gears and world of tanks but a haven't gotten anything like that since early Xbox one days.
@Hern4ndeZzz There should be non doubt in my mind people did and are still moaning about the series s but I don't see them moaning as much if it happens again for next gen. We can live in hope buddy ha
@themightyant I'm looking forward to playing it and hopefully it's at least as good as GTA5 was but to be honest I'm more hyped for fable than this game.
@Fiendish-Beaver I'd love it if that was the case if it was less powerful that the pcxbox it would have to at least be a bit more powerful than the series X or there would be no point in releasing it at all but if the new pcXbox is over a grand I can't see it selling better or even the Same as series s/x consoles have so far but i could be wrong.
I'd say this will be everywhere leading up to it's launch I remember before red dead 2 came out the amount of ads billboard bus ads it was everywhere. Imagine it turns out to be a dud game after everything haha Hopefully that's not the case
Hopefully for pricing reasons they do the same as last gen with the series s and make a more affordable less powerful version because I'm not paying anywhere near a grand for a new console in the next few years when the series x still produces amazing looking games!
I'm not really a fan of obsidian to be honest I played outer worlds 2 for a couple hours but I was trying to like it more than actually liking it! Avowed I didn't really try at all.
For the short while I was a pc gamer as a young dude I loved the original game it was such fun hopefully this game lives up to the original at least I can use a controller with this version on Xbox haha
It's not to hard to keep your console clean you simply just have to dust and clean around it like you should with all of your whole house.
Also I don't smoke inside when I do so that's not an issue.
My series s and x have always been silent even my Xbox one never really made much noise except the odd time starting up a game but that was in a dusty area for a bit in fairness.
I really couldn't care less some games are still astonishing looking on current gen machines I'm not going to be running out any time soon to drop hundreds on minimal improvements!
What can a new machine really do but up resolution and FPS oh and slightly better ray tracing wow!
I can still enjoy games on 30fps and I can't notice minimal frame drops so that doesn't effect me.
It's not like years ago with big leaps in quality between gens but the worst by far is the pricing nowadays never has a gen of consoles been more expensive 6 years later than it was at release!
Pirate Yakuza looks very good but with so many drops on gamepass lately I'm interested in I'll have to finish off a couple of those before starting this! Gamepass is starting the year very well!
I gave a B rating I've nearly bought star wars outlaws and Warhammer space marines 2 a couple of times and death stranding is a very nice addition I haven't played much of any of them but I'm sure I'll enjoy them when I get the chance!
@johnK I have a couple of games I started and never finished I'm playing through terminator resistance right now I'm nearly finished but I started it about a year ago and I also started dead rising deluxe remaster around Christmas that I want to finish off before continuing death stranding them two at least anyways and probably indika aswell ha. And to be honest I do forgot how to play them after so long but I quick check of the controller settings and I'm normally ok after getting the feel of it haha
I've only completed the first two chapters but it's enjoyable so far the visuals are stunning and the story is intriguing I just need to get a couple other games chalked off before returning to it.
