wow?
I don't see the appeal of Hot wheels , is it me? Hot Wheels is a on rails type of game, your restricted by the track.

Fast and Furious Arcade however does interest me. gives that San Francisco Rush vibe from the looks.

As for SNOOPY , come on we all love Peanuts.

Im hoping to buy a PS5 , as the constant lack of so many physical releases from team Green has soured my buds.

shame as i do like my series X a lot.

just looks like a clear box with loads of junk in it.
be nice if the outfacing plates had some sort of design on them.

Maybe she should concentrate on giving X box owners what they deserve.
How much money does she need. Don't she get enough working at Microsoft.

Greed is a devil

we don't want any of that X shape chlorinated chicken in the UK.

when it hits £29.95 in sale i might bite.

Just not bothered by it now

@Cakefish Yep very true, us in the UK and Europe get well and truly ripped off when compared to the USA on game prices.

when this film came out , i shat my pants watching it. , some of the scenes are enough to give you nightmares for life.

Its horror in a very sadistic manner.

much prefer good old Dracula. or films like the Omen or Suspira.
This is pure Evil.

@themightyant yes i had this problem with Assasins Creed Origins . it insisted on eating up my SSD storage. And it was a big chunk.

its a smart idea !
haha
i always thought that the Xone version was on disc. And you had to download the series X version.
But with Tony hawk it seems the other way.

But what does it mean for the future as far as retro gaming.
can in the future i install the Xone versions on my old Xone in case my series X implodes.
but truthfully , Im redoing my entertainment room. so that i can have my consoles all set up. across the board.
My Xseries X sits in my secondary room. And will remain there as its connected to my router with Lan as the wifi on the series X is useless.

I will use my Xbox One Elite in my main room to play my Xbox games on my projector. So being able to install compatible games to my Xone is imperative.

yes its been around since the dawn of time, but i wouldn't loose my head over it.
HAHA!

only ever used it to see what's new out. never purchased anything on it.

DVD's and Blurays are readily available for most of the films i want to see. And do buy a lot of those . then i use Prime purely because its convenient and you get the free delivery. .

Plus there's nothing like viewing a film at the cinema. which though not cheap anymore, is a nice night out.

As long as you can still access your purchased movies , Not sure how it worked. but if the movie or series is downloaded to your hard drive , can you not just transfer them to a external drive and put them on PC or a media player. amid watch them there.
or do you need a certain program to watch the content ?

Anything that has a physical disc.
Ninja GAIDEN IV floats my boat.
Outer Worlds 2 looks good. but i doubt it will get a physical release, unless it comes to PS5 to.

Ill end up getting a PS5 by Christmas anyway to play exclusives on the platform. so any games not physical on XBOX usually geta physical on PS5.

SO ILL GO THAT ROUTE.
Probably pick up the physical copy of Oblivion for one platform or another.
plus just having got a Switch 2 I shan't be short of new games to play.
Like METROID 4 / Splatoon Raiders and whatever Nintendo unleash over the coming monks.

It was of the games I bought my Series X for. upgrading from my Xone video player.
I enjoyed the game on Gamepass for a bit , but as not a monthly subscriber (i dont like subs and tend to just jump in for a month here and there when there's a few games i want to try) , i waited and purchased a copy for £22 for the base game.

I really liked the game at first , but find that the slog to get anywhere quite tiresome. going to planets and finding you don't have the firepower to overcome the hostiles , resulting in you legging it to another place to find more of the same.

It's like the opportunity to progress is stifled by poor implantation of being able to actually have enough resources to actually complete any missions.
The idea is great but its damn frustrating at times.

FH5 IS FUN, but FH4 is more fun , FH3 is the pinnacle and is more more fun.

I hope the FH6 is more more more fun.
The rumours of Japan being the setting has me curious.

I don't know about all the guys at DF. but Richard Leadbetter is a legend in gaming journalism. been following him for years.

He knows his stuff

All this will be coming from the head of Microsoft , i doubt what ever the likes of Phil Spencer , Bond or Booty say.
when Natty (i cant remember the head guys name) says jump they jump. or its there job will be on the line.

Well i was disillusioned with Xbox of late anyway.
Having just bought a Sw2 , Ill be moving on from buying on Xbox and probably buy a PS5 before Xmas so i can have a game on a disc.

I doubt Xbox will be in my sights next gen. they don't seem to able to get it right. A shame as good competition to Sony and Nintendo is good. But now they seem like the odd one out at a party sitting alone who everyone ridicules.

So basically Rare is no more. once you loose the heart of what made Rare so many years ago.
Being I still have my Ultimate Play the Game games and many of the the N64 titles. when you look at the turnout of the games Rare has released under Microsoft it is dismal.

So is there anybody left at Rare that was with the company prior to the Microsoft buy out. Not including the tea Boy.

@Martsmall +REALLY , I DIDNT KNOW, I SHALL TRY . THANKS

would be nice if it streamed your own games from the Xbox to your Meta 3.AS i have a 3s ALREADY.
iF THE wIIU could stream to the pad , the Xbox should be able to stream to your 3s . get it sorted Microsoft.

Also ending with COD was a soo lame.

From the opening cinema of the final trailer , i was thinking what could this be,

is it Kojima's new XBOX game, a old IP reinvented, ?
Then it went o COD , LAMO

No Perfect Dark was a disappointment, , some nice games shown, but as most are cross platform, (PS5) IT takes the excitement off a bit.

Also how many of these will get physical editions. probably not that many.
so that kind of leaves very few I will play.

Well not until i can grab them in a crazy sale for £20 or under.

I do like this time of year with all the game events.
And this year having a new console will be icing on the cake.
I think.

pick up my Switch 2 Thursday, (fingers crossed)
watch the summer game fest on Friday after work.
Again will watch a slightly delayed rerun on YouTube Sunday Night of Xbox showcase as again work gets in the way.

No , cause it won't have a disc drive. haha

@Millionski yeah be alright with Nintendo games on Switch 2 , but the way its all third party game keys, there gonna be worth zilch.

@Ricky-Spanish , yeah but i hate digital. , i don't mind paying more for a physical release. I only buy games digitally that are under £10 and sometimes i think that's to high.

its why i havent bought Avowed and South of Midnight.
And i dont do gamepass as i dislike subscription services.
And dont game online.

actually i might go for this. as i wont pay the high digital price. .. will have to see how it all pans out. Plus Limited Run still have to send me a bunch of games i ordered.

when not in use i use a BUMB console cover to avoid dust building up when not in use.

I skipped the original Switch, as i thought Kimishima or whatever his name is, screwed WiiU owners , with many games in development for the system transferred to the Switch. Considering WiiU owners where starved of games . I thought nah not gonna give Ni9ntendo money while he's at the reigns .

But with Switch 2 I will take the plunge. and Ill get to play some of those Switch titles I missed by buying them second hand.

Also with the way Microsoft are screwing up physical releases. and with no physical for Avowed or South of Midnight , it looks like My series X will get less use. And I wont be investing in the next Xbox as things look presently.

I don't do subscriptions really, so Gamepass is not for me. As I like to take my time with games. I don't concentrate on one game till i finish it. I often have many on the go across different formats at any one time.

Switch games I will only buy if on the actual cart. so most Nintendo games and the likes of Cyberpunk (which I never got before) .
looks like the Switch 2 will become my new mainline console. While I use the Xbox to finish through the games i do own presently.

Considering I paid £455 for my X with Forza Horizon 5 Digital , if it was say back when i bought my series X a little under 18 months ago.
Would I have paid £499 for the console alone? probably not. But there's always deals on , even if its a free game , a bundle or a small discount . i say if you save , £20- £30 then yeah it's worth it.
And to be honest wait long enough and your grab a deal.
I do think the Series S prices have creeped up to high . £300 for a 512gb model is crazy, cause you know within a month your need extra storage being a digital console.
I paid £122 for my expansion card 1TB. now that makes owning a standard series S £422. you may as well bite the bullet on the series x at that point with a disc drive.

it actually makes the disc drive X look like a bargain, because you have a 4K bluray player. Onboard.
Now everyone likes a Movie and watching in 4K is reall nice.

@TheOldHunter4K watch CEX boost those prices now, i must see what they are tomorrow.

@Nintendo4Sonic yes the extra 1tb is worth it. and it has a disc drive which the Pro doesn't
And as i use my X as a 4k Blu-ray PLAYER , its worth it.

I reckon the S series might go up. it's the cheapest way to play current gen titles. Plus if they throw another £20/ e30 then i think it will still sell. As it will still be the cheapest option for current gen.

I think the X series will stay the same , as hiking it any more would completely halt any sales. especially that the next gen could be only two years away.
No ones gonna spend £500 on a console that will be replaced in two years.

Anyway in the UK there are numerous series S and X out in the WILDS SECOND HAND.

Just pop into any CEX and your see them . and they give a five year warranty on them now.

@OldGamer999 yes but the Switch 2 is both a home console and portable. Now you could say well Xbox will have a portable soon, but that's another outlay. Plus if your into physical media , the new Xbox portable wont play your discs.

People are saying the Switch 2 offers PS4 / Xone style performance, maybe slightly better.
For a handheld at £400. that's pretty good.

@LaurenceJ1987 For me it's Zelda , i have a few Mario games, but Legend of Zelda is what does it for me on Nintendo platforms.
I just wish for a new Wave Race , Fzero and 1080 snowboarding.

@LaurenceJ1987 yep same here, pre-order today. as i never had a Switch , i have loads of games i can buy used as well.

Another good game without a Physical edition. Yeah I'm out.

Shenmue rightly deserved. It pioneered more open worlds in games, a true action RPG with some fine mechanics and firsts. Like the QTE .
There are so many games it has inspired. I doubt where have the Yakuza series as it is without Shenmue.
even the newer Xuan Wan Sword 7 is inspired by it.
Yu Suzuiki is a true pioneer of video gaming.

Super Mario bros of course inspired the many platformers in the past 40 years.
And the Ocarina of time , thrusting Link into a full blown 3d world , I loose count of the time spent on that game.

But as BAFTA are saying the most influential games of all time.
I cant believe the likes of David Braban and Ian Bell Elite game.
Way of the Exploding Fist pioneered modern fighters along with Yie Are Kung Fu.
And forget you NOT Jet Set Willy , Knightlore and JetPac

It's crazy that viewing your own game libraries of games installed on your console and or own is not actually permanently on your actual console. Its basically only a bunch of artwork whether it be digital or a disc based game.
Its like on 360 , no internet connection and you get no icons , just blank blocks.

No disc drive and physical games means i end my relationship with XBOX. I will just game on retro systems which still get a physical games now .

In fact that goes for all the big three. the day they go all digital, I'm not interested anymore.

Sayonara it will be .

Never liked it, tried it at Launch. not for me. I'm a single player game fan. So now they have the next five years planned out. Don't look like Ill be playing any Rare games soon.
And I have been following them since the Spectrum days.
When they really where the ULTIMATE developers.

I would have said Steep. as I love some skiing and snowboarding games. But then don't Microsoft own the AMPED IP ?. Go on Microsoft , give us a new AMPED. love THAT GAME.

maybe we should all patent our ideas and if they choose it where take action.

the XBOX Cast X
Xbox Dream X

Xbox Handy

Xbox Go would have been good but didn't Sony use that

Any handheld would have to support your library of owned games. But of course if you have many physical games then they would need some kind of workaround so that you could download to the handheld via the home console where the disc would provide the license. code which could be wirelessly transferred to your handheld device.
It could be possible. with some clever programming.
it would be a game changer that would entice more purchasers of such a handheld.
I rest my case Microsoft. Get it sorted.

No physical games basically means no , digital games are only worth a ten to twenty pounds to me. . I refuse to pay anymore. With a disc even if the game is part only on disc and the game installed. I have the license on the disc. I can play it when servers are down. and if they all get taken off line.

I haven't bought Avowed because of no physical. And i wont till its dirt cheap in sale. but by then i probably wont bother.
Looks like Ill be getting the new Switch. cause at least it will have a physical library.

Thing is PC gaming is cheaper because of all the deals and humble bundles and such like. I'm sure a more PC like Xbox wont see us getting more affordable games. Often PC versions of games are hugely discounted digitally long before the console versions are.
Maybe I'll just game on my old systems in the future and forget future generations.

It seems to many Microsoft titles are only digital now which I think looses them more sales then they think. Or if they do go physical many are produced in such low numbers that tracking down a copy physical is game in itself.

some nice games, Rennsport, love a racing game
Hell is Us looks interesting as does Edge of Memories

Robocop was at full price for ages, I waited ages before i could geta copy at a decent price. I remember everyone was raving about it. yes its on a big discount now digitally but then many games get crazy deals on the digital shop. And a sequel would only be made if the first one did decent numbers.
but if you haven't yet played Robo then i suggest everyone dive in.
