Wait, I picked up the Witcher 3 on sale a bit back for the sole reason that it was getting a next gen upgrade...that's still happening for current owners of the game, right?
I just picked up a halo elite controller, it’s a little unresponsive with the main button something.
ALSO, a few times it’s totally disconnected while I’m playing a game. Battery hasn’t been low when it happens. Is that a known issue with the elite controllers?
I’m very curious as to how the PS5 has outsold the Xbox Series X/S when it’s old out everywhere and supplies are so chocked. Has Sony just been able to make double the hardware over Microsoft due to them doing a conservative manufacturing order because the One was such a slow seller???
I'm surprised its only a frame rate difference between the One X and the Series X, I would have thought it would be res too. Maybe the textures will be more and the ray tracing patch will make a huge difference? Guess we'll seen. Totally fine waiting awhile to play this one.
Mostly playing psychonauts 2 and the ascent. Slowly working my way through MCC in anticipation of halo infinite and playing Pokémon Unite with friends here and there. Car is in the shop so I’m just saying home and gaming baby!
@themightyant expandable storage. Problem solved!
Unless a game is going to take up more than the full available internal storage of a console, it doesn’t matter. People will download/install huge files and delete what they need to in order to make room until the next game they wanna play, simply rinse and repeat.
Some really valid issues here that need to be addressed.
I find it very encouraging and even refreshing that the xbox team acknowledged this so quickly!
What really surprised me was how much I wanted to go back and play my older games just for the fast loading times and, when applicable, higher frame rates. I’ve always been a one time experience and that’s enough person, but I’m SO into going back to older titles now. Really glad I started on Xbox this gen. It’s nice to see someone other than Nintendo champion backwards compatibility for once.
@ThanosReXXX @Mingus I fully understand what it implies. What I’m getting at, we need a different word to describe games coming to Xbox and PC. Exclusive doesn’t mean multiple. When someone says exclusive, I expect it to only be available in one place.
Even this article is confusing, it says “only coming to Xbox series X|S” when it’s in fact coming to PC too. So I’m like, oh so this is a real exclusive? Nope.
Am I the only one that thinks calling something exclusive should mean it’s only coming out on one platform? Sooooo this game being a PC release too, means it’s not an Xbox exclusive…

When are they gonna fix the UHD Blu Ray player?!
Re: Digital Foundry Questions The Need For Mid-Gen Console Upgrades
I’d bet money it’s a redesign, like a slim/smaller version that will MAYBE have more internal storage, but no GPU or CPU upgrade.

Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer Confirms Plans To Keep Call Of Duty On PlayStation

Re: Some Xbox Series X Owners Are Having Major Problems With 4K Blu-Rays
I have like 8 4K blu rays and about half of them have playback issues. The XSX sucks for UHD discs. It’s really inexcusable.

@rjc-32 @FraserG oh snap!!! I guess I missed that news. Thanks guys!!!!
Re: These 74 Games Are Getting FPS Boosts On Xbox Series X
This is a great list! I’m really sad FC4 didn’t make in there. I would replay that game in a heartbeat if it got a frame rate enhancement.
