Haha! I like this idea. 😁😂

(Looks for “I hate Dead Rising” option in the poll, but not finding it...... 🤔. Oh well. 🤷🏼‍♂️)

But in all seriousness, I have only played the first Dead Rising on the 360 & hated it so much that I didn’t even bother with the sequels.

@mousieone

Fair enough......

Rule #1 - don’t make games that sexualize children.

Rule #2 - No other rules needed.

Now that’s pretty clear, eh? Lol. 😉

@BeautyandtheBeer

It doesn’t really matter what you or I think (even if we agreed, which we don’t). Microsoft & Sony can say what products are on their stores & what they don’t want. It’s their right.

If you want the game bad enough, you can buy it on Switch or on PC.

@mousieone

I get your point. But Microsoft & Sony have to approve what goes on their stores & machines.

Look at it this way......when we used to rent video tapes from Blockbuster, they didn’t carry porn videos. They aren’t illegal. Blockbuster just chose to not carry them in their stores. That is their choice.

Obviously, Microsoft & Sony are choosing to not let these kinds of games on their stores in their current state. And that is their prerogative. Whether Nintendo allows it or not is their choice too.

@mousieone

Well.....this topic turned into a big can of worms being opened, didn’t it? Lol.

I have never played these games & have no interest in them. But if the games are sexualizing children, then that isn’t going to fly here in the states. And with Microsoft being an American company & Sony focusing almost entirely in the west now, both companies are going to censor it or not release it.

If Japan is ok with sexualizing 13 yr. old girls in their culture, that is their problem. We don’t do that in the U.S. & Microsoft was correct in banning it (if that is the case).

I wonder why this company even bothered with an Xbox version in the first place knowing this. The game wasn’t going to sell anyways, so why bother?

We don’t get Persona on Xbox, but we were gonna get this? 🙄

@JoakimZ

Exactly.

In Phil we trust.

I’ll be playing Banjo-Kazooie as part of Rare Replay.

Meh. I would never play this anyways.

I got 11 out of 20. 🤦‍♂️

@Nermannn

Halo’s campaign is always a huge focus of the games. It’s more like 50/50 with the Halo series. Obviously, the multiplayer is hugely popular, but I wouldn’t call it the “main” focus.

I have no idea how many I have completed, but it’s gotta be 25+. I tend to play games from start to finish before moving on.

Well that settles that.

Now we can all move on with our lives. Lol.

@Xiovanni

The Switch is, basically, if you combine the Vita & the Vita TV into one console. Obviously, the Switch went further with the idea & has some ideas of it’s own.

@JayJ

Preach on, man.

I had to ignore that Jacko troll long ago because he is a waste of oxygen.

My advice would be to do the same.

I’m not surprised it sold so well.

From what I read & hear, it runs great on PC and fine on XSX/S.

It’s PlayStation fans that are losing their minds about the game because it runs like ?!$& on their consoles. And since only about 10% of their own fanbase bought God of War, I’m pretty sure most of them don’t even care because they are too busy playing Fortnite, FIFA, or COD.

Loud minority.

@VenomousAlbino

You speak knowledge & I like it. 👍🏻

@Dezzy70

I completely agree. Playtonic just needs to make it.

And Microsoft could swoop in & buy them & make their Banjo studio, so to speak.

It just makes too much sense.

@Kefka2589

Well said about the Vita.

I had one & absolutely loved it. And I am not even a handheld gamer guy. It was an amazing handheld with great tech. But Sony’s idiotic memory card prices killed it.

Once it didn’t sell well, initially, Sony abandoned by the side of the road like an animal carcass.

They called it a “legacy console” only 2 yrs after launch. It had some amazing games too! But once they stopped 1st party support of it, it was over. It’s still the main reason I’ll never buy a Sony product ever again.

Such a shame. And it even had a great add-on with the Vita TV, where you could play the games on your TV from your couch. Gee.....does that sound familiar?

Switch anyone? Lol.

@Kefka2589

Exactly. And when I was a PS3 owner, I ripped Sony for putting out a half-@$$ product like the PS Move, just to try to copy the Wii. And, of course, they abandoned it leaving the people who paid for it screwed over.

And don’t get me started on their idiotic & hideous treatment of the Vita. 😡

However, in hindsight, they didn’t go “all in” like Microsoft did with the Kinect & it was a smart move in the long term.

I do still find it funny that they got PlayStation fans to buy up a bunch of the old PS Move stock to use on their PSVR. 😂

@xMightyMatt14x

I agree about Game Pass, which Double Fine is perfect for. And thanks for the tips! 👍🏻

@Kefka2589

Exactly. Mattrick’s vision, after he took over, was to pump out Halo, Gears, Fable, & Forza games & rely on 2nd party for exclusives. And like you said, he wanted the Kinect to be huge bc he wanted some of that Wii $$$.

Unfortunately, he was an idiot & didn’t foresee the motion control gaming being a fad on consoles & played it like a long term strategy.

Instead of investing in 1st party studios, they bought 3rd party exclusives. Oh and as we all know as Xbox fans, he almost killed off the entire brand.

Thankfully, Phil Spencer has fixed that idiot’s mistakes. But it’s taken many years to undo the damage.

@Xiovanni

No, it didn’t. Sony did what Microsoft did this last generation & shot themselves in the foot right from the get go with the $600 “get a 2nd job” PS3.

And the 360 had a full year head start too.

I’ve never got into Double Fine’s games before. But I am excited to give them a shot on Game Pass & a first party studio.

@Thwomp_Stomper

You are right. They probably want him to play Halo Infinite when it comes out next year.

@StonyKL

Lol.

To be fair both companies are full of it when it comes to this.

Sony flat out lied about it. And it seems like Microsoft is backpedaling, as almost every new game they have shown lately is an XSX/S exclusive. Halo Infinite could be the last big game for Xbox One, if it indeed releases on the console.

@Bmartin001

You & me both. Lol.

Meh. Not that great looking, in my opinion.

I do love Butterfinger candy though.

I still haven’t tried this game out yet.

I hate the Dead Rising games. And I am only interested in Breakdown of the other three.

I have no interest in these games, except for maybe Breakdown.

@Dezzy70

I do think it’s slick looking......whatever it is. Lol.

I’m confused. What is this thing exactly? And does it actually cook chicken? Lol.

@gollumb82

Agreed.

@JayJ

I like that one.

Even if Sony did give something away, it’d probably be only a timed exclusive giveaway for a year. 😉

Why give this douchey millionaire a free gravity hammer?

Microsoft giving all this cool stuff to rich & famous people is starting to irritate me.

I doubt this means much, as there is probably another team working on the Xbox One version.

@NEStalgia

Sorry, I forgot about that part. 🤦‍♂️ 😉

I just use mine as a Netflix streaming machine only, just like Don Mattrick wanted. 😂

The Halo MCC is fricking amazing. It’s a must-have for any Xbox gamer.

@Kefka2589

If I can bring beer, let’s do this!! Lol.

@Jslade

Exactly! I would love to buy some of this stuff (like the XSX mini-fridge) & this would be amazing to have & I’m not even a huge fan of Jenga. Lol

@RadioHedgeFund

I know, right? 😂

@Kefka2589

If you need help, let me know. Lol.

@LocalPenguin

What is this mystery game that you speak of? It sounds vaguely familiar & quite fun. 😉😂

Game Pass rules.

I have been around this group of websites for a long time now. I was so happy to see Pure Xbox come back, as I am obviously a gigantic Xbox fan.

Keep up the great work!!

Lawyers being lawyers.....

“There is blood in the water. And the sharks will come.”

Halo Infinite should release when it’s ready & not one day before. It’s really that simple.
