Re: Talking Point: What Do You Expect To See From Microsoft's Update On The Future Of Xbox?

@bertraar I thought it would be crispy clean on the steamdeck. My son recently poured water in my series s, and it's toast obviously. But my tv (a samsung, smart, maybe 3 years old) can stream xbox from the cloud. So I do that, and use a ps5 controller to play the games. And surprisingly, the stream is super cleannnnnnnnn. I was sooo surprised. I play Palworld this way too. MS has made amazing strides in terms on cloud streaming and I'm excited to c where it goes.

Re: Xbox Game Pass Feels Like Browsing At Blockbuster, Says Xbox Exec

I kinda get what he is saying. and we are definitely spoiled nowadays with all of the access we have. Its cool, but it doesn't hold that same "buzz" as going to rent a game, having said game in your mind...then getting into the video store to find it, for it to only already be on rent. Then you have to step outta your comfort zone and pick something u weren't initially going to get or go with a familiar favorite. But in both cases, it was such a special experience as a kid, that i made sure to never leave empty handed. And, with it being my family paying for it, it would be a shame for me to not to get as much out of the rental as i could, so i usually could play a rented game for longer periods of time, because it had to go back eventually. good ol times. We also didn't have a blockbuster close by. We had Movie Gallery and Family Video.

Re: Talking Point: Did The Series X|S Bring You Back To Xbox? If So, How Come?

I never really left xbox, but after having to sell my xbo and eventually getting a og ps4, i didnt see myself getting another until about a year ago when i couldnt get my hands ona ps5. So i "settled" and got a series s... and instantly fell in love! xbox series s+gamepass really won me over. It performs well, has a small footprint (next to my ps5 it looks like a toy) and powers on and off quickly. You can even tell google to power it on and off if ya want to. Its super dope, and ill probably get a series x and give the series s to my son.

Re: Hyperkin Is Bringing Back The Original Xbox Duke Controller

Unrelated to the duke controller. I recently got another controller for my series s, its the electric volt green one. The thumbsticks are green as well, and pick up alota dirt and get mad discolored. Within a week of regular use they looked horrible. So i had to put covers over them so i didnt have to look at em all dirty n what not.
