I swear that whenever Sony or Microsoft have a big release, people pre-emptive call it a GOTY contender and then when it isn't, there has to be some conspiracy.
Still don't understand why gamers care about TGA honestly.
Personally I don't see this winning GOTY and I'd be surprised if it got a nomination outside of the RPG category.
@Skedaddle no, I just don't praise everything that MS does and my posts tend to be replies to users like fatpunkslim who have a nasty habit of console warring.
Also, even if I said I was buying it, I'd get replies telling me to use subscriptions when I don't want too.

Re: Microsoft CFO Admits Xbox Revenue Was 'Below Expectations' In FY26 Q2
@Godot25 Everyone was down in November but it was a disastrous month across the board. December was a healthier month for consoles and hardware.

Re: In The US, 66% Of Xbox Series X|S Sales Were Digital-Only In 2025
If the next Xbox doesn't have a disc drive then the Series X is my last Xbox.
I've got a collection of backwards compatible games that I'm not losing access too.
Re: Fable Likely To Be A Huge Hit On PS5 As Sony-Hosted Trailer Hits 1 Million Views
@Sindayl right but as I said, cinematic games are bad when Sony does them but A-OK if it's Xbox.
Re: Fable Likely To Be A Huge Hit On PS5 As Sony-Hosted Trailer Hits 1 Million Views
@Sindayl really cause all I saw before and after launch was how amazing the visuals were.
The same complaints I see towards Sony games.
Re: Fable Likely To Be A Huge Hit On PS5 As Sony-Hosted Trailer Hits 1 Million Views
@Sindayl Cinematic games were bad until Hellblade 2 released.
We can both play this game.

Re: Xbox Exec Explains Why Some Games Are 'Day One' For PS5, And Others Aren't
@fatpunkslim Xbox fans STILL calling PC "Xbox" is ridiculous.
Re: Forza Horizon 6's Controversial Game Pass Upgrade Costs As Much As The Game Itself
@FraserG So if you've never played any, is it worth the £42.95 for the Premium Edition?
Re: Forza Horizon 6's Controversial Game Pass Upgrade Costs As Much As The Game Itself
Controversy aside, this game looks pretty darn great.
I don't really play racers but if 5 worth picking up because I've heard some mixed things.

Definitely picking this up on PS5 Pro, looks excellent.
Re: Roundup: The First Reviews Are In For Final Fantasy 7 Remake On Xbox Series X
@Questionable_Duck so....it's better on PC, got it.
Re: Roundup: The First Reviews Are In For Final Fantasy 7 Remake On Xbox Series X
Expecting Jez Corden to not oversell an Xbox version is hilarious.
Best version is the PC version, sorry Jezzy.
Anyway game was always mediocre and REBIRTH is somehow worse.

@cornholio005 not as daft as people saying exclusives are bad but cheering at potentially exclusive Activision.

Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer Shares Lengthy Video Message After Winning 'Industry Icon' Award
Spencer is the single most useless CEO I've seen from the gaming industry followed closely by Jim Ryan.
The only things he has done that was a positive was backwards compatibility whereas everything else has been insane brand destruction.

@Nighto4 yes, I played both parts on PC. Rebirth especially is a dumpster fire.

Re: The Much-Hyped Action-RPG 'Phantom Blade Zero' Officially Has One Year Of PS5 Exclusivity
@BrownOwl exclusives are only good if it's Xbox, tolerated if Nintendo and the most sinful thing known to man if Sony.

@Chip-Douglas then...why comment?
Re: The Much-Hyped Action-RPG 'Phantom Blade Zero' Officially Has One Year Of PS5 Exclusivity
@Chip-Douglas I've read them and they're irrelevant. Why does Sony need to operate differently because Microsoft fumbled?
You know full well that people here would be crapping on Sony if Microsoft were doing timed deals.
Microsoft and Sony both do these. Microsoft had exclusive SoD for 2024 and most of 2025 while Sony has this for 2026 and most of 2027.
Re: The Much-Hyped Action-RPG 'Phantom Blade Zero' Officially Has One Year Of PS5 Exclusivity
@Chip-Douglas so basically...it's fine when Microsoft does it but not Sony.
Gotcha.
