@Elbow Oh my! Don't dare speak the truth of Series S being terrible idea and even more terrible console. The Series S fanboys will bring out the pitchforks and torches.

@cburg 2nd largest gaming company in the world....that will no longer put out a console to sell.

Nadella is the video game equivalent of Mike Tomlin. Gets handed an incredible Steelers team but slowly takes them to mediocrity and horrible playoff record.

@Millionski Nope. This what Nadella does to a company. Every day I wish he would step down and leave Microsoft.

@fatpunkslim ...and every game you mentioned probably launches on PS5 same day or within the year.

I'm so very disappointed with what's being done to Xbox. I've been with Xbox since that very first day on 11/15/01. Such glorious time be Xbox fan back then.

"we're even hearing rumours about it potentially coming to PS5."

At this point in time with how Xbox being handled. It's like saying, we're hearing McDonald's potentially going to offer the Shamrock Shake again this year.

Super lame. Played tons of Destiny 1 and 2. And, noooooope. Deal not offered to me.

Those Just For You deals are always garbage for me. They will have like 10 being offered at great price. But I ALWAYS own all 15 games offered.

Yes. I did type 15. It is that frustrating for me.

Looking forward to playing this. Hopefully does not have the usual stiff and rigid Bandai Namco camera and controls.

Really enjoy their games but camera and controls leave me never wanting to finish the game.

@Ricky-Spanish Honestly didn't even read reviews for Outlaws. Was it bad? Disappointing as really looked forward getting around to it once got thru some backlog.

@Kezelpaso @IOI The amazing and incredible windows phone. The Lumia 950 hands down the best phone I ever had.

Again, I blame Nadella contributing to Microsoft's eventual downfall. Heck, Nadella ran Panay out of Microsoft. Just watch the amazing things he will put out at Amazon.

Nadella needs to be gone from Microsoft like Tomlin needs to be gone from the Steelers!

@Ricky-Spanish @Lup I'm with Ricky on this one. I stopped playing those kinds of games decades ago. Jumping over lava pits no longer interests me.

Shame because hear nothing but great things about that game.

@BacklogBrad I would just love see another ghost recon wildlands. That game was incredible and lots fun.

First one to go should be Nadella.

I've said numerous times on this site and others, Nadella only cares about the cloud and creating as many over priced subscriptions possibly can.

Nice to see my belief always been accurate. Hopefully he steps down soon or is, some how, some way, internally ousted. He is hurting Microsoft more by the day.

@BacklogBrad sigh This is so awful tiring. I'm not a psychologist, but projection can often be found in internet forums. Have a good day, sir.

@BacklogBrad If anything, I'd consider the segregation a dream come true for the Master Race PC players.

Having us console players away, would bring such a smile of satisfaction.

@BacklogBrad You're not being punished. Feel free to use mouse and keyboard all you want and to your heart's content.

Just let it be in separate and isolated lobby.

@bazchillin Amen, brother. Was pointless time sink.

I may be in minority, but am so happy and thrilled to see achievements getting less exposure.

Full disclosure, I hate achievements with a firery passion.

Times must be changing. I remember a day when boxing would be more popular than ufc game. Let alone more popular than playing Diablo.

@BacklogBrad Maybe because there are players that absolutely, utterly, completely, detest using a mouse and keyboard for gaming...and is major factoring in those players being on a console.

Players just like me.

I WHOLE HEARTILY support this notion!

Highly doubt this will happen.

But if it does wow be heck of an event. Nintendo and Xbox getting in bed together not be bad thing with how Nadella doing everything possible to hurt Microsoft that in turn hurts Xbox.

@Millionski Nice to see someone that understands.

@electrolite77 @Sol4ris Wait? My statement of Series S being less powerful than Nintendo Switch is false? The Switch is not more powerful? Interesting. Surprised me.

But I do know that I'm correct in saying Series S has lot more issues running games than Nintendo Switch does.

Actually...more think on it. Series S is the only console this generation that has so many issues trying to play games from this generation. Really makes me want to go out and buy one. Heck maybe 2? That way when try play game that's not working properly, I can try it on the other Series S to make sure it's the console and not the game.

Oh, who am I kidding. It's always going to be the console.

@kuu_nousee @Pigrotto @Arcticpandapopz Agree Exoprimal is fun game. No idea why did not find an audience. Being on game pass allows a lot of people to see it. Maybe people thought it was "just another hero shooter or another battle royal game".

If that is the case, definitely understand. Market way over saturated with them.

For something so simple, I had the best time when playing that

I'd love see Shadowrun remaster (preferably remake) from 360 days. That game is without a doubt the best, most fun, most balanced first person shooter ever. Even to this day. Hands down. Full stop.

"we're all slowly getting used to Microsoft's new vision for the brand"

Nope. Not even on a good day. Being FORCED into Microsoft's new vision for the brand is more accurate.

Incredibly sad what Microsoft (well, honestly it's more nadella) are doing to Xbox. Infuriating and sad what Xbox is becoming. A console that essentially changed the industry is becoming a joke in the industry now.

@Balaam_ I agree somewhat.

Using a compete obsolete engine not help at all. Nor does having a apparently nonexistent QA and testing department.

I'd love for fallout 1 remake (not remaster) since never played that one. Fallout 2 also.

Oblivion remake be awesome too. Had waaaaaaay too many game breaking and game progression bugs that stopped me from finishing it. Well? What am I thinking. It's a bugthesda game. That's like saying, did you hear the sun is actually quite hot.

@HonestHick Sounds like someone listens to the IGN Xbox podcast. They spent good chunk of show preaching this exact thing. Even the COD part.

They aren't wrong. Not at all.

@Prestige-worldwide I'd say only has that description since not really "free" open world since have to complete story kinda in order. Not super strict format. Maybe comparable to Zelda game progression. Guess in way it really is actually Xbox's Zelda.

My expectations on Fable are since British developer they will nail the cheeky humor (and hopefully the charm) of past Fable games but will fail at the gameplay portion. Hope I'm wrong.

Kingdom Come 2 have almost zero interest since first game people hated for all the loooooooooong periods between save points and even save game issues.

Avowed I'm excited for. Really think will be enjoyable but quite short for today's open world fantasy game standards.

Borderlands 4 I'm pumped for and most likely end up pre-ordering ONLY just to make sure I buy yet another loot crate edition. Really enjoyed all Borderlands games except Pre Sequel. To this day still not finished it.

I completely and totally and absolutely loved the 2 or 3 games that think was Full Moon Studios put out for Xbox One or 360. Really felt like a Transformer playing those.

I need play this game. But will need to back and replay Dishonored 1 again before so.

@Millionski People should absolutely buy the Series X over Series S every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

For starters it's the superior console without the issues we read about Series S on weekly basis.

@RadioHedgeFund And that is exactly why and how the Series S has held back the Series X from reaching is full potential.

Actually the Series S should have a big impact on the Switch 1.

Considering the Switch 1 is more powerful than Series S. Less issues too.

Would LOVE to play this game and games like it.....when they finally put in an easy mode (or what is, normal mode, for any other game on the planet).

When they do this, I guarantee their sales go up at least 30% as well.

@Ricky-Spanish Sadly 100% correct. A lot of it went to how 343i treated their fans. Especially in the forums. That snickerdoodle girl was atrocious to people and they gave her a PROMOTION last time I saw. I was like, what?!? Then didn't let her go when 343i made all those layoffs. I was then like WTF?!?

For fans of the games seems the first big fail was halo 4 multiplayer. Ironically that was only halo multiplayer I enjoyed and played heck out of. Halo 4 big team death match was amazing! Easily put hundreds of hours into it playing it every night for have say at least over a year.

Guess next advertisement will feature a Playstation and say, "This is an Xbox".

@Ricky-Spanish Taking it disagree with that thought?

But I do honestly prefer Xbox Live and wish game pass never happened. Was much cheaper, at least for me, overall.

The daily achievement was absolutely one of the most obnoxious ones.

But at least gave me a chuckle, knowing there were complete and total sweaty award point chasers going for that daily.

Just another example of why Xbox Live was vastly superior to game pass and never should been discontinued.

I will continue to believe interest in Xbox handheld is being drastically over inflated. Very well could be incorrect and they will fly off the shelves. But just not see it happening.

Another thing to factor in, just how bad Microsoft is in promoting any of their products. Over the years Microsoft have put out incredible products. Only to see the marketing and messaging completely off.

@jesse_dylan Sierra back in the day (go with mid to late 80s into early 90s) made incredible games for that era. All their games were tons of fun.

The first person shooter boom came and I feel really hurt that genre Sierra was known for.

Due to all the constant issues, which seem to be on weekly basis, hopefully Microsoft are smart enough know what a huge mistake Series S, is and was, never to release another abomination like that, ever again.

Microsoft are slowly making the Reward Program more of grind to earn points than it is to grind for ANYTHING in Korean free-to-play MMO.

That's saying something.

@Fiendish-Beaver I agree with you, only because it a terrible decision for Microsoft to release a new console this soon. And as we all know, Microsoft LOVES to do the absolute worst decision making for their products.

Granted, if Microsoft is going to go the Nintendo route of releasing things at their own cadence, I could see as smart move.

If they can pull it off.

Xbox Series X across the board. Because it is really the only true next gen console.

Saying that, would love play some Playstation, if — and ONLY if, --a company would make an affordable, wireless, Xbox style controller for Playstation.

I've tried, but that Playstation controller is uncomfortable, difficult to use. Simply does not feel right in my hands.

At least, last few I've played , Robin hood games are cursed to be pretty bad.
