@GASEOUS I don't know maybe if you're blasting through it? I always take the time to take in a tune I love or go discovering maybe even a stranger mission? A game like this comes along once a decade now! I'll be taking my sweet ass time on this one no doubt! It looks spectacular!
The longer the better it looks like the step up in gaming that GTA V was when it launched on the 360! All I will say is Jason sounds like an idiot don't like the tone of his voice! But then again I'm a fussy mofo π
@stinkyx You would probably like the mafia games so with speed limits and the like on higher difficulties. Gta though is supposed to be fun and a power fantasy.
@FraserG Jason came across like a husky idiot to me so I hear you my friend. Lucia though looks like she could be funny and the personality. But as a straight male my mind is programmed to think that way by nature! Hahaha π The game itself and performance in 30fps looks very good. Wrestling racing shooting range lots too do do!
@oopsiezz Yup looks pretty great in my opinion only thing I would say is Jason's voice is annoying but Lucia is purdy hahaha π Looks like the next step in gaming tbh like GTA 5 was when it launched!
@dkxcalibur There you go because the standard version and it's dlc and the complete edition are separate games as they have the different achievement lists on Xbox. Hopefully you can pick up the complete edition anyways to get the upgrade and hopefully we both get past the starting area this time haha π
@Decoy_Snake Yeah sure why not seems you can do so much in the game! Family and kids in each town sounds hard though haha π Even playing as an evil character could be fun put the rents up high make the whole town homeless haha!
I'll pick up something cheap next time I'm around some physical games and hope my disc drive works hahaha π my hopes aren't high though! I must have some electromagnetic field around me or something my disc drives always die haha π
@oopsiezz Thank for that info my friend. Do you have any idea if there will be a difference the current versions having access to the upgrade I own the complete edition and there the standard version aswell without the dlc,s all be it they are free now. Both versions would get the new upgrade yes?? Sorry if I'm being idiotic with my questions hahaha π
@HelloCraigo Do you know if the new dlc is also part of the free upgrade for existing owners or will that be separate to purchase once the game releases?
@Rimebreaker wow!
That's really something alright!!
I own the game years now but never played past the starting area.
Maybe I'll start fresh when this drops now!
Thanks for that great news!
But yeah I'd say it will work like the mafia definition Edition versions currently up now!
Still can't believe this is free hahaha π
@Rimebreaker I'd imagine it will be done similar to the new mafia definition Edition remaster for current gen. It will be a sperate edition also I'm pretty sure this remastered version of the Witcher 3 will have to be bought not a free upgrade
That's a really nice thing to do! Well done to them a gaming company doing something for the consumer just to do it! Others monitize game trailers nowadays or keep dlc full price for a decade! These guys give out free top quality dlc for nothing!
@Decoy_Snake I can see myself properly getting lost in this game when it drops! Obviously the campaign side quests are the priority but my main overall goal is to own every building in Albion eventually!
It's more just the principal of it this game will have record profits without this deal which has held back trailers and footage to be monitized for profit they don't really need as the game will make triple it's Money back if they are unlucky that is realistically it will do better. I've been gaming since the late 80s myself so I've seen most of it myself but this just stinks to me! Two hours into it's release it will probably make more profit for rockstar then most games could ask for over there lifetime. This Netflix exclusive isn't for us consumers it's for shareholders which is my problem.
God bless the swedish they made a great furniture shop the only bad thing is the one way system to walk in the shop! If you ever have to walk against to flow in the shop it feels shameful haha everyone judging you and stuff not great Haha
@Teclo I honestly didn't know about the food the first time I went in haha couldn't believe it! I have only been up a couple times but yeah it's hard not to get something out of the canteen when you do. They are practically giving it away haha
@IronCrow86 Because it's monitizing a trailer!
Next step is Netflix exclusive trailers or dlc there's no need for it especially with a cash cow game like this.
I have a Netflix account I won't be watching it on that out of principal.
If you are happy with how they are doing things good for you my friendπ
@Kloppo Different strokes for different folks I'm glad I'm not sensitive to things like that. 30fps 60fps I still have fun and don't need to worry about what frame rate any game hits. Handy job!
@tangeraniummm Braindead is a bit offensive to be honest because everything I'm saying is the truth those are the facts!
Trailers have been ready for months my friend not just now recently.
Also why is it the initial launch is on Netflix is it for the good of the consumer or there bank balance?
I have a Netflix account but I'll definitely just wait to watch it on YouTube out of principal like I stated was the problem the principal of it them doing this deal with Netflix is money hungry!
Obviously you mustn't understand with a response like that it's not about having the patience to wait it's about them exploiting the people who don't have that patience to wait for more financial gain!
Not a good look really is it?
@IronCrow86 The initial first look is behind a paywall that's just fact they could of dropped trailers months ago but it's there choice to monitize trailers and gameplay footage too make more money off the back of what will be a money machine for the next decade for them. It's the principal of it surely you can see that?
If they are sorry why put the extended look behind a paywall?? Also the game being delayed is fine but don't act your not sitting on a load of trailers or gameplay looks that could of been released months ago!! That apology isn't sincere at all in my opinion! The leaks wont effect a thing in terms of sales of this game but maybe it effects how much Netflix has to pay them now for the extended look? Probably less considering the leaks? Full of bull in my opinion the leaks happened because rockstar refused the show anything about the game without making money off it like the Netflix deal! Horrible terrible marketing this game has had!
My daughter would love the controller cushions! I literally live a 5 minute walk from an Ikea I might have a ramble up ina couple days see if they have any in yet! I'll get myself a hotdog aswell π
@Kilamanjaro I'm pretty sure whoever made these just had a license to produce Xbox themed products and wouldn't be working directly for Microsoft or Xbox
@Evilinsane Yeah I played a bit on gamepass before I knew about the funding aswell but it was garbage anyway with an orgasmic vending machine I uninstalled it after that madness!
It should be well known who stands to profit from sales of this game!
No criticism on pure Xbox with this because it's available everywhere tbh they are just reporting deals!
But for those who don't know and if that fact possibly could effect weather you purchase it or not there you go!
I'm sure there is some stipulation that there games will launch on gamepass aswell if not all day one down the line. Assuming they last long enough which hopefully they do βοΈ
@Fiendish-Beaver I'd say near enough 95 to 100 quid?? That's what it would be about in euros you can check on your Xbox through the rewards section. You put in the amount of reward points you have and it shows the monetary value to the nearest pound euro dollar whatever.
@FraserG I have a good few thousand points worked up myself now. Would you recommend cashing in the amount I have now in store credit or just letting it build up with the reward points?? I have near enough 30 quid worth now but if the conversation rate is going to change between now and the GTA release I'd probably be better cashing those reward points in now maybe??
@smoreon It's just fps in gaming I wouldn't look that deep into it some games I prefer 60fps others 30fps.
Nobody is wrong at the end of the day it's personally preference and they give us the option in most games so it's a case by case basis.
I'm glad I don't mind either way as it's something I never really need to think or worry about in games either way my of it enjoyment won't be effected π
@Fiendish-Beaver Apart from medical issues it's just a preference in my opinion like you said 30fps was perfectly fine for years and years but now 60fps is an option that's what most want and 30fps is unplayable for some and I'd agree with you 60fps will probably be unplayable to 120fps lovers when that becomes the "norm". Personally I worry more about resolution than frame rates. If a game goes down to around 720p just for 60 fps it's not worth it in most cases to me as that's 360 resolutions in 2026 on a series x for gods sake! Mafia the old country I recently played 30fps throughout after playing a bit on 60fps because it improves resolution lighting effects and the game is so cinematic aswell it improved the experience playing it on a whole for me!
