I should bring up that the reason the Switch version is online compatible is because the Nintendo Switch online N64 games are specifically designed to be online as part of the service. This is likely a direct port of the original with no added features, hence why Switch has online but Xbox doesn’t.
I still don’t know why Remake isn’t coming to Xbox. From a business perspective they’re cutting out a large chunk of potential customers, doesn’t make sense.
@Kooky_Daisuke I heard that it was a disappointment. And one of the main complaints I heard was the main character having a voice. I think voiced characters work when the character is a set character with a definable arc. When it’s a character created by the player designed to put themselves in the game, giving the character a voice doesn’t work.
Am I the only one who doesn’t care about big AAA exclusives? I gotta be honest most of Sony and Microsoft’s first party line up doesn’t interest me at all, I’m more interested in the third party and indie stuff. As long as I have something to play I’ll be happy.
I played it recently thanks to Gamepass and thoroughly enjoyed it. I don’t usually go for games like this so Gamepass was the perfect excuse to try it.
Crunch is usually the result of mismanagement. Being “anti crunch” while also not having clearly defined goals or leadership is like making a pencil with no lead to fight lead poisoning.

Re: Many Studios Are Struggling With Xbox Series S Requirements, Claims Developer
This feels more like an optimisation thing. I mean PC developers have to account for weaker versions so why can’t these guys?

Re: Hogwarts Legacy To Include 'PlayStation Exclusive Quest'
That’s a scummy move. Content should not be exclusive between versions unless they all have something exclusive.
Re: Review: Pac-Man World Re-Pac - Classic 3D Pac Is Back After 23 Years
@FraserG at least it’s only £30. That’s a decent price for what it is.
Re: Review: Pac-Man World Re-Pac - Classic 3D Pac Is Back After 23 Years
This was about what I was expecting. The original wasn’t anything spectacular but it was good arcade style fun.
Re: Review: Saints Row - A Truly Disappointing Return For The Saints
Yeah, after that first trailer I saw this coming. It just didn’t look good at all.
Re: Rumour: Immortals Fenyx Rising Could Be Coming To Xbox Game Pass
I keep forgetting this game existed.
Re: SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake Gameplay Shows Super Varied Environments
I swear if there isn’t a pinhead Larry reference in the Wild West level I’ll riot
Re: Digital Foundry: What Remains Of Edith Finch 'Clearly Disappointing' On Xbox Series S
@themightyant I bought a series S because it was cheaper. I don’t care about frame rate or resolution since I don’t have a 4K tv.
Re: Get Ready, Bandai Namco Appears To Have Teased Tekken 8
@Royalblues given how bad tag 2 did that’s not going to happen
Re: Xbox Series X|S Has Outsold PS5 In Japan, Again
What even is this generation. This should not be happening.

Re: Bethesda: Your Starfield Character Won't Have A Voice
Oh thank god. I hate RPGS where your player character has a voice. I’d rather imagine how they sound in my head.
Re: When Is The Xbox Games Showcase Extended 2022?
@Kooky_Daisuke yes because having a voiced main character worked so well for Fallout 4

Re: TNMT: Shredder's Revenge Launches Day One On Xbox Game Pass Next Week
Oh thank you! I’m buying this on Switch but I don’t have the money yet so this will tide me over til then.

Re: Marvel's Avengers Has Delayed Its Next Update
Does anyone even care about this game anymore. If Spider-Man couldn’t save it nothing will.
