@nomither6 Yeah I have zero faith in today's Ubisoft to produce anything I will want anymore. All of their new games seem to be ruined by needless live service requirements anyways.

@joey302 A lot of 360 games won't show up on Xbox One or Series consoles as they were never made backwards compatible.

I don't think I'd be looking forward to anything that anyone who was responsible for Redfall could be working on.

@OldGamer999 Yeah I couldn't agree more. The fans will defend the difficulty as they do, but it's always been a real turnoff for me. The entire mentality behind defending the difficulty basically just reminds me of why providing options is such an important thing. Sure they might love the hardcore challenge and repetition in trying to overcome the difficulty, but that is exactly why games have hard modes in the first place, to please that sort of person. Meanwhile offering a medium or easy difficulty opens it up to people who might not enjoy that.

Restricting it to such hard difficulty basically comes off as sort of an elitist situation to me. Forcing people to play their way because they think it's the ultimate way to play video games or something. While that's fine for them there's a good reason why most video games try to provide more accessibility, not everyone is a hardcore gamer, and not everyone is capable of hardcore challenges. I always felt like video games should be enjoyable for anyone, not just the most capable and elite at playing them.

I think I'll be fine with the old HD version. This game is so old that I really don't see the need for more enhancement.

Honestly this game got really unfairly attacked and criticized by video games journalists. I got it on a sale a while back and I had a blast playing it, enjoying it far more than most games these critics seem to praise these days.

@Fenbops I've seen this happening a lot lately, they take real actors and claim to model the video game character after them, yet they make a lot of changes to their face that results in them no longer resembling the aforementioned actor. It seems especially common among female characters with them looking more masculine than the reference actor.

I also don't get the mentality of implying feminine characteristics are somehow unrealistic. There's no shortage of feminine looking women out there, seems asinine to deny their existence while spouting off the values of representation.

She looks like a female Brock Lesnar, wonder if she fights like one as well.

This game seems like it's going to be bad.

This trend is basically speeding up my loss of interest in new AAA games.

@IOI Except it wasn't.

So I imagine this will just be an update for the current version of Flight Simulator?

Got this and I can definitely tell it's an iOS game. Feels very mobile phone. Not much to it or the content either. Definitely not an 8, I would maybe give it a 6 if I'm feeling generous.

@theduckofdeath I think the only real reason so many gamers got so worked up over Tango closing is because it's been one of the latest excuses to hate on Xbox. Most of them never even cared about Tango.

I loved high on life, if it's cheap enough on sale I might get it to play it again and the DLC.

@theduckofdeath Look into it, most of the main talent left. One of the lead figures started their own studio.

I can wait for a deeper sale, I played the game on Switch and it was alright. I'm sure it's better now though.

@IOI Most of the talent at Tango left on their own before that to form a new studio. It was basically a shell of a studio when Microsoft closed it.

This is going to make Xbox consoles far more appealing to the casual COD player.

Well that took a while. I played this on Switch for a while, but it was lacking polish. Willing to get back into it on Xbox though if it's much improved.

Sounds like it should be pretty similar to Cold War

@nomither6 Yeah Xbox controllers have basically become the standard for PC gaming. Yeah you can use a PS controller, but most PC games are designed with the Xbox controller in mind, and Xbox controllers have native compatibility with Windows, everything just works. They are definitely sold to a wider audience than just Xbox consoles.

@Secryt It's "childish to imagine pricing would stay the same forever" is a ridiculous statement to make when there has already been recent price hikes. This is just entertainment after all, you can only increase the price so much until people think it isn't worth it.

The industry really needs to cool it on these service price hikes, it's already at the point where they're getting hard to justify. Any more expensive and you might as well just use that money to buy games and actually own them.

They basically killed this game with a combination of making it overpriced, broken upon release, and lacking crossplay.

Definitely not for me.

Pretty sure this was already decided before it even premiered.

More 360 games and more FPS boosted games.

I'd say it's a lot more like the first two Flatout games than Wreckfest, if you played them and note the differences. I really enjoyed it on PC for what it is, and Xbox seems like a better place to play it.

Amazing how the FTC is still trying to waste time and resources fighting this. It's done, over, time to put their pride aside, admit defeat, and focus on something more important.

Very artsy, very cool looking.

To be honest the Xbox One's backwards compatibility was so good that it completely replaced the need for my old Xbox One consoles. With the Series X only adding to that it has been easy for me to retire my old 360's.

I loved Sniper Elite 5. Great stealth action game.

@PapaGlitch Walmart is pretty far from just being a supermarket, in the US at least it's probably Amazon's #1 competitor.

Hate it when they only have these deals for new subscribers.

I think the only time I preferred long games was when I was a teenager and had all day to just play games. Now a days I just never seem to have the time to get through big long epics. The only games I put a ton of time into are the kind of games I can just keep chipping away at and playing whenever I am in the mood such as racing and sports titles.

Been playing Trail Out on PC for a while now, it's a very fun Burnout/Flatout-esque racing game.

The gaming industry sure isn't what it used to be. I remember when the top 10 was dominated by new releases. Says a lot about the type of games people want to play today, as well as the pace of popular releases among the general public. So much in the way of new hype seems to revolve around games only the hardcore gamer community is into.

@JoakimZ Same. No point in buying any more controllers until the new one releases.

It's just a worse version of what I already have.

This is a good example of the type of game I would never want to play.

Now that's cool, would love to have that vault. The console is nice as well.

I didn't think much of it, kind of a weird game that didn't do much for me or really make me want to keep playing.

I wasn't really impressed by their game to be honest, so not that surprised.

I can't justify the space this game takes up. 2K19 was the last good one.

I was wondering when the console versions would release, it's been TBA for a long time.

@Spider-Kev Honestly it might as well be.

They are finally starting to make this the game it should have been.

That show has STILL been going on? Remember it from the 360 era lol.
