Can't wait to see how the game is magically awesome when it drops on PS5.

I'm expecting the Series S to struggle with that 30fps, so it makes sense.

Battlefield. Not pre-ordering it because the last couple have been dogwater though. To this day 2042 is still a train wreck.

I only play Cod for four player, splitscreen, zombies. So unless BLOPS7 has this, BLOPS4 is about it for me.

Nadella hates hardware, people, and Xbox.

Done with Microsoft until he gets the ax.

No engine in the world could fix the mess that 343 Halo, including Infinite, was.

Gonna be sitting on the sidelines on this one. Gonna see how it plays before I drop money on it. After all this time 2042 is still a dumpster fire, and I honestly have no hope for this one.

Well yea. We're going to finally get content now that they will have funds from people that actually buy the game instead of Gamepass subs.

I absolutely love Starfield so I guess more content is more content.

I saw "Playstation" exclusive and was tripping because I knew I played this on PC lol.

Horray for the first paragraph.

I hope it was good.

Loved Clive Barker's Jericho, so it is nice to see him dipping back in to games.

I just quit spending money in Xbox in general.

Gamepass ends November. So I'll be done with that. Go me be weird seeing my 19 year badge go away

After which the only time I buy something Microsoft related it will have to be heavily discounted and on Steam

@WildConcept6 I couldn't care less what Sony did.

All I care about is Microsoft made both my Series Xs less valuable to me.

At this point might as well just stick to my PC since it has a BD drive.

Infinite has fine physics.

It is just the net code that sucks.

Making the largest part of the game, since they adandoned the campaign, kinds pointless.

One less reason to use my Xbox. Made a lot of use of this. Just going back to BDs instead.

One more nail in the coffin as they discontinue movie and TV show rental and purchases.

@Stoned_Patrol Sounds like one of us been following the game for years in EA and the other just heard of it though an Xbox website.

Spoilers, I play on PC. 😉

They're delisting it to never be purchased again and it is still £15.74?

Probably gonna be the best joke I've heard all day.

They've cut entire game modes and back pedaled on promised content they were supposed to release.

This is just a cash grab.

Thankfully Steam is fantastic about issuing refunds when developers are scum like this.

@RiverGenie Surely you aren't going to suggest you're ignorant to what you implied by the coaster comment, are you?

My hopes of ever getting another Viva Pinata game are up in smoked after this.

@RiverGenie I take care of things I purchase. Weird you wouldn't.

@RiverGenie Ordered it after seeing this. 🥰

You'd have to pay me to buy from Xbox Drift Labs again.

How, in the year of our Lord, 20 and 25, does a $50, third party controller, have better hardware and more functions?

Sadly, seems as though the definition they took is resulting in my canceling of subscriptions with them and not purchasing their games any longer.

Gonna be weird to see my 20 Year badge disappear.

Already own it on PC and full of Halo mods.

What's funny is my PC version is fully modded with everything replaced with Halo assets.

Something the Xbox version wotn ever see.

Already got it on PC so it'll be a pass for me.

I'm not sure safe and Xbox or Microsoft should be used in the same sentence lol.

Not touching any Microsoft games again until Nadella is axed.

He has been ruining Microsoft since he took over due to his hateboner for hardware.

Not only has Microsoft pushed my back to PC gaming, but they've also made sure that I will not be touching their future releases until Nadella is kicked out.

Oh well, more savings for me!

Microsoft has single handedly killed any interest I might have ever had in any of their IPs with all this BS.

Well yea. QA will be handedled by 3rd party partners that are making Xbox branded hardware.

No need to have your own team when you can toss it to someone else.

Looks like I was right lol

Most people don't. Went back to PC myself because Xbox is providing no benefits with their hardware so it is just another plastic box taking up space.

One of the reasons it is selling so poorly.

And this is coming from someone with two day one Series Xs.

We look forward to continuing the conversation

My friends, the conversation is dead and gone.

Sad thing is the campaign is the only good part of it.

@RegnumSolipsi Cool. That's your opinion.

My opinion is that Halo 4 was the worst story with the godawful, show horned romance.

The sound design was murder on the ears with everything being way too tinny. To the point I had to create an entirely sepeste audio profile to kill the highs a bit. And the multiplayer was awful.

Halo 5 was alright. Especially War zone.

Halo Infinite was back the opposite direction. Desync that still isn't fixed to this day. Player outlines. Terrible mtx system. Unfinished campaign with worse ending than Halo 2's cliffhanger. Missing entire modes and features from previous games. I can go on all day.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner Lijely just keep making Horizon as I'm it sells better.

Retire FM and let Sony have the Sim field with GranTurismo

Given the attitude toward Outer Worlds 2, this isn't information I'd publisize.
Would be one more reason for people to avoid it.

Mentioning 343/Halo studio involvement is a mark against a game until they show they even know how to make a good game.

Pseudo blades.

What a tease.

Fresnel lenses are a joke. They should ajve used whe Quest 3 instead of the 3S. Can even use the 3S without getting a headache because of the a noyngly small sweetspot from the fresnel lenses.

Just like the ROG Ally X, this does not play native Xbox games.

Microsoft was really went "Think X and S naming is complicated? Hold my beer.“

To add, it is the inferior 3S instead if the 3.

I suspect there is a significant overlap in the people saying "Boohoo extra button press" and "Boohoo ads".

Some people have never developed user interfaces and it shows.

The point is to be as quick as possible with as few interactions as possible. Some people are just happy settling for what scraps they can get I guess.

If you did this anywhere in an enterprise setting you'd be fired on the spot. But for consumer? A-Okay because it feeds them more junk.

Thankfully you don't have to deal with all the BS on PC and can disable every thing you don't like.

It sucks it has turned out like it has. Remedy used to be so loved.

After Control and Alan Wake 2 though, Remedy has pretty much lost all goodwill.

They pushed me back to PC. And I use my Series X pretty much just for BlackOps4 4 player splitscreen Zombies.

So I guess I'm part of this metric too lol

I already do this with Steam.

Not sure what this is supposed to do for me.

Only solidified my choice moving back to PC tbh.

Why am I not surprised.
It was doublespeak or a mess up.

So back to it likely being a PC hybrid and only game swith PC versions will be playable on it concerning BC.

Exactly like the Xbox ROG Ally X.

@TheGameThrifter Correct. Just like other backwards compatible games that are no longer sold.

If they let me pop OG Xbox games I to my PC though thay would be game changer.

Well hell.

Color me green and call me a pickle.

Nice news for a chance. Glad for some of my cynicism to be proven wrong.

@TheGameThrifter
Permissions should only be required if they're planning on selling the game. Otherwise should be fine.

The biggest thing is backwards compatible.

"Your existing library" I am willing to bet, at best means current backwards compatible games and not Xbox games ever released. As there are a lot that still aren't backwards compatible.
