Hope this isnt a knee jerk reaction to the reveal debacle. What can you do to fix a game already 8 yrs into development in just six months? Gonna be taking the L on this Rocksteady/Warner bros - prepare yourselves.
@jrt87 I'm strangely immune to technical stutters and stuff. It's weird, I just don't notice things that really bother other people. But, on the other hand, I don't notice them difference between 1080p & 4k either.
Xbox are like that teen beauty queen that decided to fly to Japan and spend the summer there, because they kinda liked Hello Kitty. They've finally gone, but now every fella in Tokyo has an shifty grin and a knowing glint in their eyes.
I was laughing my rear off at Sony when this all began. Not a legal leg to stand on. What they've achieved with some fancy lawyers, loads of crying & whining + Jim air miles, is quite frankly astonishing. The letter of law and regulation no longer seems to count for anything at all. Hats off to them, seriously.
I hope now, Phil Spencer realises that Sony & he are not bestest bestest friends. In fact, they never were. Probably still get the obligatory "Spider man 2 is the absolute bestest game ever!!!!" Tweet from old Phil tho.
@Snake_V5 Bizarrely, I think you're actually right. This modern Microsoft is run by tech hippies and, compared to xb 360 era, weak AF. I bet they sign over all Activision games to Sony for 20 yrs AND put COD on ps plus too. It would be a cuck move, but xbox have no balls anymore.
Please delete this post: but wanted to say, we'll done for deleting both sides of a conversation that Pure Xbox doesn't want here. You were clear in your statement & have now been clear in moderation. Thank you.
@OM1993 same as Deathloop, they can't even talk about Ghostwire on xbox until the Sony deal expires. As we know, with Deathloop they elected to just release the game.
Redfall for me. Love Arkane Austin games. Prey was great. Was worried about co op dominating Redfall (not a fan of MP) but apparently it plays just fine as a sp game.
@Kaloudz it's kind of unintentionally woke, if that makes sense? Because you're constantly taking control of new NPC's, they vary those skins quite a bit.
Fair enough I suppose, for those forking out the full 70. Probably a really good system actually. Why shouldn't there be a reward for those buying it outright. Happy to wait for Gamepass here though.
How many times do we see game reveals, and everybody is blown away by how good they look, only for them to release 3-4 years later and look no better than anything else released around that time?
My goty. I always wanted to enjoy Pikmin, but for whatever reason it never clicked with me. Tinykin is a breeze - so easy to get into & hooked upon. I'd like a sequel already. For an example of just how much I love this game, we have five xbox accounts in our household, I've played it on all five.

Re: These Six Games Are Coming To Xbox Game Pass (March 7-21)
Adding games to cloud and counting them as GP additions still feels like cheating to me.
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Discusses The Importance Of Platform Exclusives
Beats around the bush a lot ole Phil. Just give it straight "Starfield is exclusive to Xbox, like Spider-man is exclusive to PlayStation."

Re: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Release Date, Release Times & Preload Details On Xbox Game Pass
Finished the demo tonight. My advise: give the bosses some space. Counter, when u can, then counter red long range attacks.

Desperate to start this, but Hogwarts legacy is taking forever. So much side content!

I pray they prove me wrong.
Re: UK Authority Proposes Excluding Call Of Duty From Xbox Activision Blizzard Deal
OK, sure. Split it up and just buy COD. That would make "lyin' flyin'" Jim Ryan - "cryin'" Jim Ryan.

Re: Hogwarts Legacy Has Five Different Performance Modes On Xbox Series X
I upgraded to 4k TV when I bought my series x. Honestly wish I'd stuck to 1080p because I prefer performance.
Re: Xbox Leak Reveals Ubisoft+ Will Include 60+ Games, Here's The Full List So Far
If they wanted people to subscribe, they shouldn't try to give their games away for peanuts at every turn.
Re: Rumour: Gears 6 Development Has 'Begun In Full' Within The Last Year
You think Xbox has changed, then lay-offs, price hikes and the cancellation of new ips.....
Re: New Xbox Games Release Dates In 2023
Missed Star trek Resurgence - April
Re: Redfall Requires 'Persistent' Online Connection Even In Single-Player
I don't like it, but it's par for this course thesedays.
Re: Xbox Exclusive Starfield Is Apparently 'Playable In Full From Start To Finish'
Didn't somebody from The Initiative say that Perfect dark was playable start to finish, like 2 yrs ago?
Re: Redfall's 'Bite Back Upgrade' Looks A Hard Sell Even For Xbox Game Pass Members
Maybe new areas for the new characters?
But if that's case, then they should just say so, I guess?
Re: Poll: How Would You Grade January's Xbox Developer Direct?
@OM1993 of course lol. Ghostwire is OK BTW. I went thru it a bit on ps5 (borrowed it from a mate) decided to wait and do the whole thing on series x.
Re: Poll: How Would You Grade January's Xbox Developer Direct?
Good overall. But, for me, no date for Forza was criminal. Should have been left out altogether.

Re: Redfall 'Deluxe Upgrade' Leak Gives Us First Evidence Of Xbox Price Increases
@Tharsman I mean a purposely stripped back version. Like ps plus tried to pull with driveclub & Godfall.
Re: Redfall 'Deluxe Upgrade' Leak Gives Us First Evidence Of Xbox Price Increases
How long before were basically getting barebones versions released on gamepass, w/ the expectation you'll pay an upgrade fee?
Re: Xbox Exec Wants Fans To Keep Developer_Direct Expectations In Check
"anything else would be a bonus" - still doing it. It's just the FOUR games.
Re: These Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (January 16-20)
@ParsnipHero Rise is very good for MH newbies.
Re: Pick One: Which Game Are You Most Excited For At The Xbox 'Developer_ Direct' Event?
Redfall for me. Love Arkane Austin games. Prey was great. Was worried about co op dominating Redfall (not a fan of MP) but apparently it plays just fine as a sp game.
Re: Ubisoft Plus Gearing Up For Release On Xbox, First 20+ Games Revealed
@Kaloudz Well it's subjective. I just felt, having frequented London many many times, the pool of NPC's is entirely accurate.

Re: Ubisoft Plus Gearing Up For Release On Xbox, First 20+ Games Revealed
I mean, a year ago, when u announced this, you could have had me Ubisoft. But since then I've bought everything on that list I care about.
Re: Poll: What Will Be Xbox 'Game Of The Year' In 2023?
@Berserker7 Looking better every time we see it.
Re: Launching On Xbox Game Pass Is 'Scary', Says Redfall Dev Arkane
@Dezzy70 I just hope the game us good. If it's good, I don't care what the stats are, they're not going to effect my enjoyment of Redfall either way.
Re: Xbox Game Pass Shooter Atomic Heart Is 'Entirely Single-Player', Story DLCs Planned
Fingers crossed this isnt another Callisto protocol disappointment.
Re: 'System Shock' Is Finally Heading To Xbox In March 2023
I'm so glad that I have Gamepass and a game rental service, 2023 would bankrupt me.
Re: Report: Redfall Targeting May 2023 Release On Xbox Game Pass
@Romans12 My thoughts exactly. I think Atomic heart is going to be another High on life size hit though.

Re: CMA Reveals Public Feedback Has Been Mostly In Favour Of Xbox's ActiBlizz Acquisition
@UltimateOtaku91 They could buy EA, but would need to borrow heavily. Big risk on their part. Sony corps net worth is only $95bn total.
Re: Hideo Kojima Reveals More About His 'Unusual' New Xbox Project
@StylesT Interesting that. Not saying you're right or wrong, but most see that the other way round.

I'm about as excited as I can get based on just 1 trailer. I pray this is good. Rockstar could do with competition imo.
