This one caught me completely off guard! Loved loved loved the first one. And it’s on game pass too? Unreal.

Looks phenomenal! But I am worried about the price!

@TruestoryYep Agreed. I will be eagerly awaiting this game, but even when it releases… I will be waiting maybe a month or two until it is fixed.

I have my doubts about this releasing as good on ps5 and series x. I have a feeling it will be better suited for the next xbox and ps6, I hope I am wrong! The videos looked fantastic! I am such a huge fan of the witcher, cannot wait for this!

The new console is wishful thinking, although I for sure would love a new all powerful Xbox console to compete with the PlayStation.

Also… no mention of Fable here??!

I just want them to focus on releasing a quality next gen console.

I know one thing we definitely won’t see….. “Xbox Exclusive”.

Seriously though, just give me Fable & Gears E-Day gameplay and release window and I am happy.

There’s definitely a catch, one we will not find out so easily. And also, would it then mean that any PlayStation games on the PC would then be available to play on the new Xbox? I don’t see it happening.

I always look forward to the June event, I get so excited, but I also usually get disappointed… but this year is gonna be different right?… right??!

Game pass price increase news incoming. You can all but guarantee it.

@Lrapsody Cool story bro 👍

@Ricky-Spanish Lmao! Keep dreaming. Microsoft don't give a damn about us, they just want every penny that they can squeeze from us. Price increase definitely incoming soon.

Anyone who thinks $600 for an Xbox series X now is ‘great value’ seriously needs to have their head checked.

@K1LLEGAL genuine question.. why is it even going up in price outside of US? .. like for example, you said its £40 increase in UK, but why? Is it simply MS just chancing their arm?

@Fiendish-Beaver again, nail on the head. I really don’t know where I will be gaming in a year or two’s time.

@Fiendish-Beaver Correct and right you are. It is difficult to know where to go from here, gaming is becoming very expensive. If they had said the next Xbox will be 600-700 I would have most likely saved up and went for it, but now I am guessing it will be 900-1000. What's the alternative? PC gaming? Sure GPU's cost an arm and a leg as is.. I just like the simplicity of a console.

Disgusting. They absolutely do not need to be raising the prices, especially by that much! 100e increase for a Series X?.. Sorry but that's not acceptable.

@Kaloudz I’m quite sure that some companies are definitely altering their plans around GTA 6’s release window.

I get so fed up seeing so many editions of games. Just looking at this list we have standard edition, special, ultimate, deluxe, premium, definitive … give us a break!

Shout out to the beta testers who pay to test it early for the rest of us!

@Toot1st I can dream

I want to see info about the new handheld, but I have a feeling that will get it's own seperate announcement. For the event I would love to see:

• Fable - New gameplay & Release date.
• Gears E-Day - New gameplay & Release date.
• Gears Collection - Release date.
• Clockwork Revolution - Gameplay & Release window.
• Perfect Dark - Gameplay & Release window.

I am for sure dreaming big but what an event that would be.

Would love a number 3! 2 had such a great campaign

Well yeee haww! I love the summer showcase. I wonder what will be announced.. perhaps the Asus handheld device will be officially announced?

I didn’t realise there was a new talon principle game coming. I would be absolutely terrible at creating puzzles but would love to see what gamers can come up with!

@RiverGenie Thanks for being our Beta tester bro! We appreciate your hard work!

Big shout out to the Beta testers who paid $30 to play this early, thanks guys!

@Nintendo4Sonic blindly? No, it’s called proof. Games that are developed poorly are believe it or not.. the developers doing. End of discussion.

@Nintendo4Sonic so Dragon age has released in a good state, good on them. What about the vast majority of games beforehand that have released a broken buggy mess? Are we to forget about all of those games just because Dragon Age plays well?? People don’t like spending their hard earned money on broken games. Us gamers have been burned too many times. If you are looking for someone to blame, then blame the thrashy lazy developers & producers that release broken games. Just don’t point the finger at gamers and call us/them ‘stingy’.

@Nintendo4Sonic "People are way too stingy these days with games"

Ehh, no. People are just sick and tired of paying €70 for a broken game on launch that needs multiple patches before it becomes a game in a playable state. This has a knock on effect, people get sick of being shafted and are learning to vote with their wallets.

Happy to hear this. I play 2K23 quite a lot with my friend, but I won’t be buying this until a few months after launch. I’ll wait for it to go down in price and get patched up.

@DoctorJohnDisco Cool, thanks for letting us know!

Yeah, nobody is surprised by this. Their lack of clear communication and direction has pushed potential buyers away. I love Xbox (and PlayStation) but I worry about what their next gen will be like. I don’t want to move to cloud gaming. I really hope that Xbox’s next console is an ultra powered, kick ass, physical machine with great games to play.

I am absolutely buzzing for this! I seriously cannot wait.

Was disappointed when I saw the score here, but on Opencritic it has a ‘Mighty’ 86 score. So that’s made me feel better! Looking forward to playing this.

Please don’t be a buggy train wreck! Please don’t be a buggy train wreck! Please don’t be a buggy train wreck!

There should be another option for the vote:

‘I’m excited for the game but will wait to see whether it releases as a buggy mess’.

@OldGamer999 same, I am really looking forward to Indy but I will wait first to see if there are bugs/issues galore. I can wait for a better experience if needed.

Genuine question.. how does a game release in such a bad state? Do they seriously not have any testers or quality assurance? It has taken them just one week to release a patch to address these OBVIOUS issues, so how is it that they did not come across the issues before launch? It’s baffling to me.

Looking forward to playing this but, like with all new releases, I will be waiting 3-6 months to play it. Gives them time to tidy it up. At least it’s on game pass so I won’t need to wait for a sale!

Big shout out to all the day 1 beta testers!.. oops, i mean day 1 players.

Between Stalker 2 in November & this in December, we are being spoilt. Xmas this year is going to be busy for me gaming wise! Can’t wait!

Ubisoft are just really weird. This game was one of their best in a long time. They keep making ridiculous decisions. Give the gamers what they want… P.S we want Splinter cell.

Aaron Greenberg full of crap as usual. Hyped up day 1 as something that us Xbox fans would be in for a big treat when really the show was total rubbish.

Played multiplayer for the first time in years and I actually really enjoyed it. The only thing I really dislike though is the amount of adware in the menus! There is too much going on for my liking.

@WhiteRabbit Take my upvote and get outta here! Ha

Ugh, what a mess!

Maybe if Microsoft stopped making ridiculous decisions that ***** over their loyal fans, then this might be different.

Am reeeeeally getting tired of Microsoft’s nonsense lately. Like can’t they do anything … just right?! Every single thing from them just seems to be confusing and complicated now. I absolutely love Xbox but it really feels like they are a complete shambles at the moment, and it only looks like getting worse.

Will games that are on sale now.. be possibly further discounted in the main sale? Or is this as good as it’s going to get?
