I love artists. This looks great.

@WildConcept6 yeah I filtered to games over $40 to see what big companies are there and aside down Microsoft, Square Enix has got to be the biggest supporter. I think Microsoft will eventually include this in contract renewals in the future to make it more prominent or they'll alter their hardware so it's considered a PC in Current contracts so ownership carries over. Interesting to see how they'll work it out, love the concept just think for the hundreds of games I own it's not a fully cleaned out feature by comparison

@WildConcept6 I've used Play Anywhere on a ROG Ally and have been really disappointed with the selection. The GTA reference is a bit odd because there's really not another game like it that drops a billion dollars in sales in 2-3 days. I like the concept but in reality there are hardly any worthwhile games or communities on Xbox Play Anywhere compared to the vast amount that aren't. Those are all fair points & I want it to work but we can see it's under utilized. I did take a look at the latest link above and can see there are a TON more games there than in 2023 so will have to go check it out next chance I get. Fair points,fair points

@Gabrie couldn't agree more. Why would they target multiple systems to be paid once? Nice idea, doesn't work

Really glad they're bringing high value games to this service..oh wait

Note to self: don't name first wireless controller II .
Honestly Hope Xbox allows regular Bluetooth connectivity for their next piece of hardware to avoid minimum pricing of $100 for what should cost $30-50

Hey the Fed might announce interest rate cuts, bet they'll adjust the their pricing based on the next two meetings & some tariff announcements to blow over. Bad timing to launch anything without variable pricing being a thing (which would suck)

Keep the news coming! Think buying a Series S recently to compliment my Series X is the right move to scratch my portability of higher end games I wanna play. I have a carry on bag and access to a TV when traveling so think it makes the most sense for my situation as the Switch 2 can take care of anything portable in between.

So while I've been afainstbyetting any new Xbox hardware, I have also had an ASUS Z1 Xtreme which I didn't like and I've wanted to get new memory for the Series X so I can store more hames on it. So what did I do? Bought a 1 TB Carbon Black Series S that's actually smaller than the ROG (which requires lots of charging when playing the type of games I like it else the battery tocks down like a clock). I'll be using this to store my games, take traveling and still be able to save for a PC build next year. It's really more of just a machine to play 1-2 games I like anyway & PC handhelds haven't really scratched my itch they way I need it yet. Happy theyre launching now so they can improve and lower the price in the future.

I've had probably some of the most immersive experiences of my life at 16 bit, 64 bit and the 360 era. Graphics are only really important for immersion if the gameplay, story and controls are great. I'm all for seeing what their goal is and what new experiences if any they can create

Ohhhh thank you! I'm buying this 100% absolutely love GameSir and have been shopping for this type of controller for MONTHS. it's a a day one controller for me

All Switch 2 needs to do is launch the COD4 remake and a Zombies collection focused on local couch coop and they're fine

That sucked yesterday. Could've at least sent a message about it to our consoles.

Assuming the G7 Pro is Bluetooth without a USB, it will be an instant buy. I love their wired controller which I returned as soon as I learned about a wireless version coming.

I am guessing it was Sony that had the good idea to include ODST here and not the other way around

I wish I never bought this to resell lol

@FMT they're about to layoff the Japanese nugget studio

Hope they have an 8K mode too. In all honesty, I'll take 120fps at 1080p or higher, love me them frame rates

Graphics could be better but MAN is this game a lot of fun. It's exactly what people want from COD without all the silly ass skins and battle royale gameplay. Just fun tactical missions without being too rainbow six-y

This is probably the best year for shooters of all time. Open to other years. Space Marines 2, Ready or Not, Doom The Dark Ages, Ready or Not, Battlefield 6, new COD, Arc Raiders, Helldiver's 2 and then awesome updates across F2P shooters, my favorite shooter Hunt Showdown and many more. This is a great game too, I need more money

The only way Bioshock 1 makes sense is with much more access to Rapture and side stories to playthrough because the Bioshock Collection already looked and played very well. Likely why it was cancelled. If you can get all 3 games for $10 why spend $40-60 for a remake of 1?

Remember unlocking gamer pics for playing games?

They're playing Mecha Break on Gamepass

@Millionski they've added a lot of fun stuff you can play around with for another 4-8 hours. Worth trying it out but not sure the longevity is there beyond it

Please stop supporting the game and release the next one already. There are hardly any players online anymore and some kind lobbies have 3-5 minute plus wait times. I'm a diehard fan and have been playing Infinite for years, they did a lot of work now that should have been the way they supported the game from launch instead of half assing it, dropping seasons and cutscenes and then suddenly putting in really nice updates. Kudos to whoever picked it up but c'mon, the world has moved on 343. Put all this cool content into the next game

They should've had their various twitter releases available for purchase tbh

More companies need to be releasing these and happy to see it's not $150+ like other manufacturers. Bummer is the USB charger for connection, will wait for the GameSir Pro. Was just about to add to cart before seeing that, I need the slot in the front for other accessories so it's a no go, such a shame. Hope Xbox allows for more Bluetooth controllers next gen, this gatekeeping is dumb and expensive for us Xbox users

@Ricky-Spanish if PS5 has faster load times due to its architecture and it includes all the QoL features and DLC it may be the definitive way to play the game. Let's see

Exciting new hardware with new features sounds like a nice thing. I feel it's just at the point where Xbox makes gaming PCs whereas Nintendo and PS are still experimenting with new ways to play or enhancements. I'd like the rumored feature heavy Xbox controller to launch that adds gyro controls and more couch coop games would be welcome moving forward

Man this is an instant buy from me

@CallMeDuraSouka MFA is a joke because it's all getting leaked. Every year it's one or two leaks for my personal data, such a shame. They say don't write down stuff on paper but literally, never had a paper stolen from me 😂 in Germany they do postal verification for stuff and I hate it

I miss the old days where you could just access Xbox Live by going down to the pub and out drinking Microsoft's silly old boys who would then grant you permanent verified access, regardless of age, because they respected you for being a man

This is beyond Xbox gamers and between PC players, let's see who swoops this up aside from influencers

@Martsmall thank you!
I'm not on X , helpful to know it's there if I need it. It'd be nice on console if it was more explicit

I actually played the ROG at Gamescom and I remember it being a lot of fun. The controls and swapping to games wasn't easy so hoping this collab makes the overall ROG handheld PC experience better. There's really not a difference between the regular ROG and Xbox ROG from what's been mentioned so far aside from a button that has Xbox on it

I really dont get all the crap they play with Microsoft insiders, Alpha insiders and only some of each group getting access to features. I've been an insider and I don't know what I'm getting other than Wal Mart ads 😭 thank you guys for posting, I wish Microsoft would hire competent people like you to write their articles and inform the gaming public, thank you Pure Xbox team! 🙏

@Ricky-Spanish of course I will! I'll also throw in Shrek 6-7

Alright I'll buy a PS6 if I must

I remember the Gamescom before Starfield launched, like a few weeks before, watching the in person demo recording. They really paid some random non-gamers to over hype the game and say "Starfield is so effing awesome!" And I remember the skepticism on a lot of the Germans faces and voices 😂 the launch was good imo, I enjoyed the game a lot but it did not meet the hype that first week

I want the GameSir Pro controller for this more than I want the game, it looks so beautiful and they're hall effect joysticks. Really liked the wired variant but the wireless version with the Wuchang design art is sweet

Imagine using a disc for storage! 30+ year old technology can be used by modern man?! I love physical and will always support it

Shane they don't put taking care of their people as one of their priorities. Microsoft is set to add another trillion dollars in valuation by this time next year.

Tactical extraction shooter

@TrollOfWar evercade is awesome

I'm locked in, let's goooo

Hell yeah, I have a Tamagotchi and love their arcade games

@Ben Kerry the real talk of the town is their official wireless controller coming out for this game from GameSir, such good freaking controllers. Link for you and their website has more details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZklIzEYkr0

@Kaloudz it might help if you focus on faction storylines, those are much shorter and will make you feel accomplished. The Vanguard for example or any of the faction questlines. Main story is actually pretty short as well in the grand scheme of things but you won't have fun only focusing on that, it's the weakest part of the game lol

Woohoo! I wanna get back into my long ass playthrough, really hope they keep adding things and making the game run better. More things to do and variety are welcome, I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. They've built an awesome universe and just need to fill it more fun things to do! Let us take ships between playthrough please...

My brain don't do good understanding difference between $69.99 and $79.99 , just know it more cost 🤓🧠💸
