@Dezzy70 agreed. It’s great having all these studios and game in development but we can’t play them. Halo and FH are great Xbox games but there nothing new. I’m waiting for new ips.
Potentially a great game but right now it’s a mess. Vehicles glitching everywhere, easy sniping shots missing completely, tanks hitting small rocks and bouncing around everywhere and what seems to be a very low res draw distance.
I wasn’t interested until I gave the beta a go. It’s big ridden, low res and has no fov slider, so think it’s based on the Xbox One version at beta but, I’m enjoying some of the modes.
It needs a lot of work before it releases but I was a little more interested until I remember it’s a CoD game and it’ll end up with Fortnite style costumes and guns sooner or later.
@somnambulance I played the infinite flight and loved it but I have to be honest here, Splitgate is more fun. Not sure if I’ll quit it when Infinite launches but I very much doubt it.
@antstephenson Totally agree. The portal mechanic changes everything. Nothing better than being hunted down and portalling(?) behind the enemy for a kill.
Playing Quake and loving it. I fully expected it to feel dated but it just doesn’t. I hope they give it the Doom treatment or release a new game. Also getting back into Battlefield V.
@The_New_Butler I’ve been looking at Death’s Door. How frustrating is it? I get about an hour or 2 in the evening and my job is pretty high stress. I don’t want to spend 2 precious hours picking up pieces of my controller.

Re: Battlefield 2042's Hazard Mode Adds A Battle Royale Twist To The Formula
When the devs of cod and Battlefield watches the Halo flights, they should have announced delays to their games. 343 did good.

Re: Far Cry 6 Seems To Be Going Down Well With Xbox Players So Far
I start Far Cry games, I enjoy them and then I get bored. I get the feeling this will be the same. I’ll pick it up on sale.

It will be great in about 6 months.

So many good times playing GRAW 1 & 2 terrorist hunt with mates.
Re: Xbox Suffers With 'Installation Stopped' & 'Kicked From Party' Issues
@FriendlyOctopus Diesel Stranded. A walk to find fuel in a desolate wasteland aka Tesco car park at 1am on a Sunday morning.
Re: Here Are The Release Times For Back 4 Blood On Xbox Game Pass
@GuyinPA75 Me too. Looking forward to some PvE. I just hope it’s better than the beta.
Re: Halo Infinite's Second Multiplayer Preview Is Now Available For Download
Not exactly Uk friendly times.

Re: Talking Point: Is Xbox Missing Out By Leaving The Superheroes To PlayStation?
Yes. Simple answer. Although short Miles Morales is an excellent game and is was Spider-Man. I can imagine that Wolverine will be as well.

Re: Splitgate Devs: 'Don't Hold Your Breath' For A Battle Royale Mode
@UltimateOtaku91 Easy to get into and a hell of a lot of fun. It’s free so give it a go. I’ve just bought the battle pass.
Re: Splitgate Devs: 'Don't Hold Your Breath' For A Battle Royale Mode
@Liam_Doolan one of the best shooters I’ve played since Titanfall.

Re: The Atari VCS Might Be Getting Support For Xbox Game Pass
@ymo1965 I got Cybermorph at launch. One of the worst games I’ve ever owned.

Playing Quake and loving it. I fully expected it to feel dated but it just doesn’t. I hope they give it the Doom treatment or release a new game. Also getting back into Battlefield V.
Re: SCUF Gaming Unveils New 'High-Performance' Controllers For Xbox Series X, Series S
Just ordered a Pro. My Elite 2 is dying and those mouse button like trigger stops will be perfect for Halo and BF 2042.
Re: CD Projekt Red Outlines What's Coming In Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.3
@OliverOwen I keep loading it up, seeing how bad it looks and then quitting until the update arrives, if it ever does.
Re: PS Store Accidentally Reveals Call Of Duty: Vanguard Reveal Date
I’ve never been so excited to not watch a reveal trailer.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 14-15)
Let’s just say, I’m not allowed to say 🤫
Re: Splitgate Is Getting A Next-Gen Upgrade For Xbox Series X, Series S
Great news. It already plays really well on X so it’ll be great to see what the devs can improve on.
Re: Call Of Duty: Vanguard Images And Details Leak, Reveal Reportedly Taking Place Next Week
Modern warfare gave me hope for the future of CoD, Cold War doused those hopes with a big pile of horse sh*te.
Re: Call Of Duty: Vanguard Images And Details Leak, Reveal Reportedly Taking Place Next Week
@WillQuan with cosmetics on.
Re: Back 4 Blood Dev Talks 'Mind-Blowing' Excitement Of Launching On Xbox Game Pass
Got an invite to the beta and our pretty good. Not much of a challenge so far in PvE but I like the gun play.
Re: EA Play Is Bringing Five Codemasters Games To Xbox Game Pass Ultimate
Value.increasing!
Re: Halo Infinite Players Have Already Eliminated Over Six Million Bots
@Ocat agreed. Battlefield was going to be my game for the next couple of years but 343 have done good.
Re: Halo Infinite Players Have Already Eliminated Over Six Million Bots
@VenomousAlbino definitely more of a challenge on the new map. Can’t wait to face down the Spartans.
Re: Halo Infinite Players Have Already Eliminated Over Six Million Bots
Absolutely loving this so far. The weapons have a good balance, gameplay is classic Halo with a twist and the personal AI cracks me up.
Halo Infinite is gonna be huge this winter.
Re: Xbox Fans Are Really Impressed With The Halo Infinite Technical Preview
Played a lot today and love it. Gunplay is classic Halo as is the one map we’ve got to play. Like the new weapons too and the AI is pretty funny too.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 24th)
Trying to finish Halo MCC before the mad rush of new games. Only a few days left!
Re: Xbox Summer Sale Now Live, 500+ Games Discounted
@The_New_Butler Thanks for the explanation. I think I’ll give it a go.
Much appreciated.

Re: Talking Point: Should Xbox Create A Dedicated Handheld Device?
For cloud gaming? What’s the point? It wouldn’t be portable for the vast majority of the world’s population.
Re: Bethesda's Deathloop Will Be A Timed Exclusive On PS5 Until September 2022
@MaccaMUFC I gave your comment a like before even reading it. That’s what fellow reds do!
Re: Biomutant's Latest Patch (1.5) Increases The Game's Level Cap
I really wanted this game to be as good as I expected it to.
With so many good games on the horizon and my GP backlog, I’ll probably never get round to playing it.
Re: Roundup: Everything That Happened At Today's 'Xbox Games Showcase Extended' Event
@P3nguinprisM No problem. I downloaded the whole thing and then found out. I thought I’d save you some time and space 👍
Re: Roundup: Everything That Happened At Today's 'Xbox Games Showcase Extended' Event
@P3nguinprisM I fell for that. It installs online and then tells you that you have purchase the campaign.
Re: Guide: How To Watch Today's 'Xbox Games Showcase Extended' Event
@FraserG Ah well. Maybe next year. Hellblade 2 is looking good, so will be great to hear and see how it’s progressing.
Re: Guide: How To Watch Today's 'Xbox Games Showcase Extended' Event
What are the chances we will get an update on perfect dark?
That's a game I'm excited for.
Re: Xbox Scoops 'Best Presentation' At E3 2021, Forza Horizon 5 Wins 'Most Anticipated Game'

Re: 343 Industries Is Hiring New Talent To Help Out With Halo
Let’s hope the staff they want to help with Infinite is for future DLC.
Re: EA Confirms Battlefield 2042 Will Have Bigger Maps And More Players On Xbox Series X
Can’t wait. I was getting BF4 vibes from that trailer. I really hope they nail the map design.
Re: Biomutant Is Getting A Wide Range Of Post-Launch Fixes & Changes
That’s great news👍
I’ll pick it up on sale or when it inevitably arrives on Game Pass.
Re: Review: Biomutant - An Ambitious Game Weighed Down By Its Own Ideas
@Cherip-the-Ripper No.release date yet but I'm hoping for some news soon.
Re: Review: Biomutant - An Ambitious Game Weighed Down By Its Own Ideas
@Trmn8r It probably will in autumn.
Re: Review: Biomutant - An Ambitious Game Weighed Down By Its Own Ideas
Sooo glad I didn't pre order. I've got enough on my plate with Rage 2 and Mass Effect LE. I'm still waiting for Black Myth Wukong.
That's a game I'm looking forward too.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (May 22nd)
Mass Effect 1 for me. Taking my time and enjoying it, clunky movement and all.
Re: It's True, Xbox And Bethesda Will Host A Joint E3 Showcase
Can’t wait!! Despite E3 being watered down nowadays, I still look forward to it. Starfield news please 🤞
Re: Biomutant Is Officially Getting An Xbox Series X Version In The Future
I will definitely be buying Biomutant but I’ll wait for the X & S version. If I can resist the temptation.
Re: Talking Point: Looking Back, What's Your First Memory Of The Original Xbox?
Day One for me. That Halo opening tune still gives me chills.
