Wow way news to wake up to fantastic I can't wait for this!!

@Kaloudz Thanks my friend right back at you top tier you are!💪

Well to be honest Xbox needs some sort of reset to move forward.
It would probably take over a decade for Xbox to become the top gaming company but one thing is for sure now Microsoft aren't going to be sunsetting Xbox any time soon.
Also with a new generation coming it an opportunity to chance the narrative around the brand and it's consoles.
Microsoft need to hit the ground running with next gen.

Go Sharma most gamers won't just be mindless cash cows and just pay whatever especially for an Xbox at this time in the world.
If they utilize upscalers like someone mentioned here before that's a great way to keep the price down.
I hope they can pull it off maybe another series s/x situation I know the series s is starting to show it's weakness this late in the gen but we are 6 years in even the series x struggles with the odd game.
Also they could probably make a different version of the console without steam or other storefronts make it like consoles now with just the Xbox store??
Whatever they come up with it's good to know they are actively trying to get the price down now before launch

@Fiendish-Beaver Yeah horde mode is the best it's proper fun especially now there's a couple modes of it.
I remember staying up way too late on gears 2 and 3 getting the 50 waves with friends.
That whole shield glitch in gears 2 started the forafacations in the later game's!
I've done blood drive so many times in every game it's crazy haha 😂
To be honest I'm looking forward to horde most after the campaign of e day.
Hopefully we can have a game sometime when it drops is your gamertag the same as your profile on here?

@Markatron84 You sly devil you!!

@Tasuki Yeah I get that I sort of trained myself to play cockpit view when it first came into racers years back I always thought before that would be the perfect view haha 😂
It is ina sense but you just miss out on to much visuals back when it came in on 360 I always always used it.

@Tasuki I'm jealous dude I'm trying lately to play out of car I'm getting better but when I need to actually try to win against the AI drivers I go back into the cockpit!
The game is in another world outside the cockpit you see everything looks so much better you don't see anything inside the car.

@Fiendish-Beaver I've beaten all of the 360 gears on insane everything after that was hardcore I didn't have the friends to get online to complete the games online we all had kids in between no time to play properly.
I was more about the multiplayer on gears 2 and 3 I was in a clan having battles against other clans in online competitions and stuff we were good but not near the best.
Gear's 4 in fairness was a very good game I did enjoy it the multiplayer was vastly improved and the campaign was good but gears 5 was for me a let down I didn't really enjoy the campaign but the horde mode is the best version no doubt.

@BacklogBrad Yeah that is annoying having to go back to a house or festival to upgrade cars it really is annoying!
I'm ok on the rally and road races on tarmac on highly skilled most of the time but anything other than that and im smoked!

@GuyinPA75 You got it my friend that's exactly right!
To be honest I don't like farcry games at all the only ones I enjoyed was farcry 3 and blood dragon after I couldn't play the through I got bord quick.
But if you like that gameplay and there's a halo game doing it happy days!

@Markatron84 Only level 21 after 54 out of 57 achievements how you do that bud??
If it was someone else I'd call bull but I trust your funny ass🤙
As in your a funny dude if that comes across wrong ha!

@BacklogBrad Upgrade your car on what it feels like you're lacking control, top speed, acceleration or braking my might help??
And I've only ever once had the game crash by fast travelling.
Maybe restart your console also deleting your 360 and local saves on the console should help if you are experiencing crashes.
Every save for a game gets loaded back on the console when you start it after that hope that works for you.

I like this article I'm 120 or there abouts 104 cars I think?
Just popped the 100 cars achievement tonight!
Also while this is a Forza horizon love in what view does everyone play in??
I play in cockpit view but wish it wasn't my go to one I miss so much of what's going on in the game!!
I tried other views but that view I do the best on and it feels most natural it's crap!!!😥😂

@themightyant Exactly the same formula but don't worse how can that be enough for Microsoft's favorite child it felt lazy to me compared to the previous games.
Apart from most of the main campaign it was basically copy paste unfortunately.

@GuyinPA75 I know what you are saying but I want my halo to be cinematic like a 90s action movie a want set pieces!
Halo reach for me was peak halo I only played it about a year ago and it renforced my belief but guardians or 3 would be second.
I'm all for halo changing up gameplay but farcry style for me is the wrong way to go in my opinion.

@Fiendish-Beaver I'd agree with you there somewhat maybe my expectations are too high for these games gears 4 and 5 were good games but they could and in my mind should of been better games gears 5 more so I hated the open world parts similarly to infinite.
To be honest I enjoyed gears 4 and halo guardians a lot more than there sequels.
Infinite for me was like playing farcry I tried so hard to enjoy it but it was disappointing I really think Microsoft dropped the ball big time with those two franchises.
For me the best gears and halo games are still gears 3 and halo reach.
Gears alone is the reason I game on Xbox.
And the will to add to those franchises over the years has been non existent.
We should of had at least one game each from both franchises and another gears tactics.
Especially with how popular these games where in the 360 era people bought Xbox consoles for these games I was one haha

@IronMan30 Xbox have done a terrible job with both halo and gears since Bungie and epic stopped making the games.
Far too long between sequels and when they did release the games they where lackluster!
Halo infinite particularly was terrible in my opinion basically a farcry game with a halo skin!

Well that's a decent jump for Xbox in sales!
Maybe quality exclusives can bring people back to the system very interesting!
I wonder what the numbers are for everywhere else?

@Kaloudz You can't throw something like that at someone because they don't like a game even here to be honest.
Your a good dude that's well established here on this site that bloke got it totally wrong in fairness!

@ILIKECARGAME Kaloudz is a decent guy I have to say I don't think he has any problems with stuff like that.
It's different strokes for different folks some things people love others don't I'd say that's just the case here

@Romans12 Very relevant for an Xbox site if people don't know the 2 day early access doesn't apply to Xbox consoles!!

I loved both Alan wake games didn't like control at all!
But I hope this does very well so I get more Alan wake games😊
Most likely remedy got a decent sum to make this early access exclusive to playstation I don't blame them personally it's a trivial perk too most and free money for them why not??
The Xbox population is by far smaller than playstation they can get these things.
In reality it's nothing.

@joeyflannel Eventually depends if you enjoy the challenge to begin with.
A tip for career mode always negotiate the fight deal for better terms.
Try get a home fight for tight fights.
Always get maximum weeks for training for a fight.
Jab is key to winning tight fights with hits alone.

@Jonnybekeww It's good in my opinion dude that's all I don't care about review scores only what I'm actually playing and experiencing.
I only tought it could be a skill issue because I was crap for about 20 fights at first even when winning not enjoying the gameplay and wanted to give up and then the game clicked with me now i have great fights in the game wins and losses!
Proper slugfests and tactical fights.
I'd say if you're a boxing fan like me give it a go the roster is very good the gameplay is tricky at first but amazing when it clicks.
Only thing no Chris Eubank snr!!
A disgrace!!

Sounds unique I'll give it a go!

@FraserG Exactly 💯

@Jonnybekeww Well I've put a lot of hours into both games so it's not a ignorant opinion I know what I'm talking about.
It's a lot more tactical and more like real life boxing not every fight will end in knock out sometimes you have to box smart.
There's a much higher learning curve to undisputed aswell at the start fights are difficult.
Keeping you stamina is key to the game.
It all depends on what you want from a boxing game the more arcadey fight night or more sim style undisputed!
I think people bounced off it due to the learning curve more than anything once you get the hang of it your flying.

Undisputed is very good a lot deeper boxing games over a fight night and the fighters look great!
I might be able to get a couple of those online achievements now the game is coming to gamepass!

Looks very good is the a soul like game??
I'll have to download the demo give it a go!

@awp69 Just downloaded it myself playing it now great fun I can only imagine how good a current gen version will look!
I even popped an achievement or two great fun🤙

Dune and stuntman are my favorite ones

Used to love the stuntman games always great fun and of course I own the 360 version when that game came out I was blown away with how it looked

Even Xbox one x is getting an upgrade nice to see!

Wow for some reason I was thinking about playing a bug's life game on ps1 back when the other day and how it was so difficult it just popped in there for some reason haha 😂
Crazy when things like this happen they are a bit overpriced to be honest but I might pick up a bug's life.

@ZeD Yeah exactly I've become very knit picky on the wording of things as I'm getting older.
The whole Xbox logo update change whatever thing annoyed the life out of me with wording and language around it stupid and pointless I know but it is what it is haha my cross to bear.

@ZeD Proves my point even more nothing wrong at all with it just clever wording from them.

Really your paying for both games though aren't we but that's a good way to spin it alright so I don't really blame Ubisoft saying the other game is "free"

Poor man's Forza horizon!

@Fiendish-Beaver Yeah I'd love that aswell it's a great game with a solid campaign really enjoyable!

@Markatron84 That looks like some Columbian salt to me haha 😂

@FarmDog08 That's good news then I don't want to hear about anything over a year away.

Hopefully what is announced is going to come out soon I can't get excited for things years away unfortunately it's more annoying than anything else

@Markatron84 No doubt about it I like to imagine that your profile pic is your "climax" face hahaha 😂🤣

Looking forward to seeing what is in the game in terms of modes horde has to be included and improved upon.
Also the campaign need to feel like gears of war of old I haven't liked the direction the coalition have taken the game since taking over so hopefully this is a return to form for the franchise it desperately needs it!

@Fiendish-Beaver Yeah I get that a lot aswell no point in giving you a great deal on games you already own it's literally pointless.
That should be something they update for sure.

@Fiendish-Beaver Yeah see it's just stupid isn't it they should let you gift it in fairness I'd say it's a bug or something with the store.
I still get the upgrade prompt for Hogwarts legacy despite owning the series and Xbox ones versions.
Hopefully they give the store some updates and love with all these updates lately!

I can imagine how much extra they will charge for that couple extra inches like a highly paid male escort they charge by the inch haha 😂

I use quick resume the odd time or when I forget to close a game it's a handy feature and I'd miss it if it was gone but not something I actively use.
But if it works well for Forza I could just use it for that??
Great article 🤙

@Fiendish-Beaver It would be nice if they allowed you to gift it to someone considering you already own it.
But I'd say you probably can't unfortunately.
