Xbox Nexus. Lean hard into making the Xbox user experience universal on all devices. Don't just make an app for your modified windows handheld. Bring the console experience and expand it by adding the capabilities of PC. Make this available on any and every device. Focus on quality control. Streaming should feel seamless. The Nexus will be the central hub for your Xbox experience. Utilize the modern hardware available and add compatibility for ALL Xbox disks to run on your central hub. Windows integration into the console similar to the handheld. This allows for seamless emulation. Bind together the ease of access of a console with the opportunities of a gaming PC. The Nexus and any Streaming devices, handheld devices, PC's should have the same experience for the consumer. How you play is completely up the the user.
I absolutely love it. Already owned it. BUT I'm glad more people can play! I used to play these for hours as a kid. Used to get my sister with the "You can play when I die". She's still bitter about it today. LMAO
Sign me up! I've dreamed of this since the 360 days. xCloud is something I've utilized a ton. Love the ability to play away from home so easily. At this time I'm not even considering new hardware in the near future. I'm satisfied with what I'm getting out of my Xbox Series. But this would be a no brainer for me to pick up day one.
Been great so far! Even just being able to play with people who thought to "Move" to New Zealand on release day. Lots of sweaty lobbie. But my brother is coming into town to play this weekend. Gonna be sick.
@Ricky-Spanish I agree. I even looked up the PS5 shells to see if they're the same rip off. Can confirm, they are. Maybe they'll end up worth some money like the Xbox 360 Faceplate.
I've been under the impression the Series S outsold the X by a nice margin. So why do they only offer console wraps for the X? I miss when special edition consoles were available. I HATE contest consoles and accessories. Give people a chance to actually own the stuff. I loved my Halo 3 360. It's a core gaming memory. Sucks people have to buy 3rd party decals to get that kind of experience now. Definitely a miss for Xbox. The three console wraps they offer are constantly on sale. The non-Starfield ones see steep discounts.
Insane we haven't seen more COD on game pass. They could have had a trail of these games all year leading into BO6. All DLC free. The hype would have been wild. Not to mention the huge catalog of other titles they have. Optimistic, but still a bit disappointed. Very excited for BO6 though.
This is great! I've utilized xCloud a ton. Great perk. The latency in single player games has been shockingly good for me. Big multiplayer titles seem to feel significantly worse. BUT still enjoyable if you're not a ranked kinda player. As someone who never played indie games, xCloud changed that. Glad the catalog is growing.
@GeeEssEff This is referring to game streaming. You can't offer up more than 100 games and charge a fee. Apple wants 30% of the value, not the subscription fee. That's what I'm getting out of their legal jargon. Microsoft will bypass IOS hurdles with their own storefront via a dedicated and refined web page. They're not willing to give up 30% of a sale with something like cloud gaming. It's extremely expensive to even run Xcloud on the back end.
