I totally agree. There are certainly gaps in the XBOX first party portfolio. Rhythm games, board games, puzzle games, Banjo Kazooie etc. It's gonna take time but I'm pretty sure they'll get there.
@K1LLEGAL Exactly. I had a similar situation with Gears 5. Went into Panic mode as I searched frantically for it on the store to find 'Buy now'. I was sure I owned this?
The Avengers and loving it!! Ring of pain, not bad. A Bards Tale 4, wanted to like it but kept crashing, unbalanced combat and awful and confusing menu system/contols.
The best racing on switch has arrived on Xbox! After playing Forza Horizon 4 for the past year and with Horizon 5 on the way hoping I still enjoy Asphalt as much as I used to. The competition is far greater on Xbox.
I loved this game on wii u! I have the special physical edition. Very scary game using the wiiu gamepad gyroscope. Will double dip on Series S and wondering how the game mechanics will translate? Hoping the experience will be as good if not better on Series S.
I have had an Xbox for year now and loving every second I play so far. But there are a lot if shooters out there, we're not short on these.
Xbox defo needs more family, adventure, platform titles. It's weirdly very short on party and rythym titles I feel also.
Groove Coaster from Taito would be perfect for Xbox.
@Dezzy70 I've had a Series S since launch and I love it. I've hardly touched any of the other consoles I own since I bought my Xbox.
The reasons I bought Series S over X are I haven't a tv in the house that would display Series X at full spec, and my first digital only console. I bought a one S last August and couldn't understand the point of owning a disc only to download maybe up to 80 percent of the rest of the game? So therefore decided digital only. Of course the price is also a factor, cheaper than Switch! When I upgrade the tv / moniter I may consider series X or perhaps the discless equivalent of the future. Game pass is amazing by the way!
This game is Great and very scary. I have the collectors edition for WIIU. I intend to buy this again on XBOX Series S so that hopefully, due to XBOX'S stance on backwards compatibility, I will not have to purchase again on future XBOX models. Unlike nintendo.
Looking forward to trying The wild at Heart and knockout City. I definitely need to practice for Knockout City. Played the demo earlier in the year I was useless. Gonna give it a second attempt though.
Got Rid of sky years ago. If you have a good internet and want sky use now tv. It's far cheaper and has all I want from sky. Spend the savings you make on gaming.
