It would be in my top 5 list of GOTY but it was so buggy at launch that I had a broken save. I restarted two weeks ago and had a blast but ran into a few bugs. Enemies getting knocked out of the map and I couldn't move on because I couldn't kill them. Still a super great game.
At least he’s giving fair warning. Still no date but most things are getting hit by inflation. I work in produce and we are seeing all time highs on product when demand spikes and their are shortages. If game pass does go up then I’ll cut a different streaming platform from my budget. My entertainment roi beats any other platform I’m subscribed to.
I started off on pc and was happy it was on game pass when I decided to get an X. I found a way to transfer my save from pc to console. Such a great game. Great community and developers.
I liked the grid legends trial through ea play but really couldn’t imagine buying another racing game. now that it will be on game pass I’ll be using it to get in race mode waiting for FM.
My only gripe is things not registering. Rewards are already a bonus so i try not to linger in the negativity. I’ve had sale items not register and have contacted support about it with no action. Preorders and deluxe bundles haven’t worked before. The rewards themselves are super easy and I use them to pay for game pass. It’s a pretty good service despite the bugs.
Super excited for the release. Shared worlds is going to definitely help bring some of my friends over. Can see really could implantation and really crazy worlds in the future.
No issue here. Love trying all the games that come to game pass. If I see something I like that’s not on game pass I buy it. If there is a good sale on older games I buy them. Game pass brought me back into gaming hardcore. I just use my reward points for three months of game pass and I’ve paid 20 bucks for 18 months of game pass. I’ve bought plenty of games too.
Got it. It’s great. My partner loves it too. It’s like a rogue like with animal crossing/stardew valley vibes if you were the mayor or Tom Nook. Art design is great too. One of the best games off my Phillips hue.
Yeah I bought the founders edition. I’ve been loving the characters movesets and the fun. Just beat the prerelease battle pass last night so I can dive deep into the new sea of thieves season seven.
I saw these in the shop for 10-20 bucks and I didn’t want to rebuy them again so I’m glad they are up on the perks. Hopefully I get into the alpha test too.
It plays really well. I’m a huge smash fan since n64. I like the character selection and how everyone I’ve played so far feels really different. Free to play will turn off some but it follows standard league of legends progression with a season pass as well. I bought the founders bundle because I’ll be playing this all generation. Easy to pick up, cross play and just fun. Buy what you want and play how you want. All characters are unlockable through in game coins. Some emotes and cosmetics are pay only. Some you only get through the season pass. I like it and I can see them making a ton of money and the content expanding.
I tried pc game pass and loved having a great catalogue of games to try. My laptop handled games around 30-40 fps. I loved the Xbox showcase and knew I wanted the X series. It’d play the games I was enjoying way better and I upgraded my tv too. So far it’s been amazing. Playing new games playing last gen games and playing retro games. Nintendo, PC, and Sony are going to have to do a lot to get me to switch. The marketplace ecosystem makes sense to me. Play games, get Microsoft rewards to play more games. The other two console manufacturers are money hungry. Switch was making too many remakes and Sony only really specialized in single player games.
@Bleachedsmiles Yeah even Nintendo has one with their gold coins. I don’t get the same value out of it because it’s based on purchases only but it’s always nice buying a game using existing coin.
I’ve been using my points from rewards to pay for game pass since august of last year. I have it till December of this year already. You get a points break if you do 3 months. If you game everyday and check game pass quests and the rewards app it’s relatively easy. I also buy some games or utilize sales to get the big point drops. I really enjoy it because it incentivizes much game time and has me try new games.
@Would_you_kindly Yeah because it was an Xbox presentation. Both are coming to PlayStation. PlayStation has shown both games on their YouTube channel after the presentation with the new trailers. And both game websites include ps.
@tatsumi just set your expectations that anything can happen. It really sucks losing loot but the game can feel like a story book.
I love sea of thieves. Great times and memories with myself and with friends and loved ones. I really enjoyed that they gave Xbox communities like sea of thieves, elder scrolls, fall out 76 and MFSM some love. I think live service games get a lot of hate but these games are fantastic by yourself and with friends and with the communities involved.
Really good show. A huge variety of games coming to game pass. I like the focus just need to honor it. I like they still showed off updates to games like sea of thieves and elder scrolls and fall out. These games have huge active communities. Glad to be on Xbox.
I’ve gotten good use out of the trial weekends and their summer demo fests. If a demo interests me I check it out and wait for release. Brings me back to the demo days on discs.
I bought the digital deluxe. I’ve played a lot with my friends. We are all on the edge. Going to see if the season is worth it with the new map and specialist and how they do their season pass. Pretty sure I’m uninstalling it. Their bug fixes introduced new bugs. Their balance fixes had made it worse.
I love when they talk with the developers and community managers and we get to see their passion behind the game. Really glad this is coming back. I really enjoyed listening to the age of empire team and Microsoft flight simulator team last year.
Definitely picking up that controller. Love all the perks they do for games. Got a bunch of banners last year in gears. Anyway to show my solidarity with my friends and family.
It’s really good. One of the first games I beat on my series X. The childrens book in the game is fantastic. Lots of Easter eggs and collectibles that actually complete the story.

Re: Phil Spencer Can't Get Enough Of 'Satanic Animal Crossing' On Xbox
It would be in my top 5 list of GOTY but it was so buggy at launch that I had a broken save. I restarted two weeks ago and had a blast but ran into a few bugs. Enemies getting knocked out of the map and I couldn't move on because I couldn't kill them. Still a super great game.

Re: Xbox Game Pass Is Hurting Right Now, But Larger Forces Are At Play

I bought the digital deluxe. I’ve played a lot with my friends. We are all on the edge. Going to see if the season is worth it with the new map and specialist and how they do their season pass. Pretty sure I’m uninstalling it. Their bug fixes introduced new bugs. Their balance fixes had made it worse.
