I enjoy CoD a lot and I don't need Game Pass for it. It's my most played online game in the last years, so I buy these games. The price increase is through and I hope it finally pushes classic sales again.
It's great. I feared that the multiplayer will be too hard, but it's not. It's a good step up from Black Ops 6. Finally bigger maps again and a lower time to kill. Also the speed seems to be a bit lower. I also enjoy this new kick of from wall thing. Game is pre-ordered and I'm excited for November.
I can't pop my game Discs into that device. So it's pretty useless to me. And I don't plan going full digital. But I guess, there will be a market for this thing.
@DeadSpace I'm just around 2 hours in so far. Got the game pretty late and I was pretty busy. But so far, no, I wasn't able to do any of this. Didn't even know yet, that it's possible.
Let's be honest. It's a simulator, not many people are interested in this. I don't think it sold that well. So it's ok, if it's reaching a bigger audience. It's way more absurd, that Gears Reloaded came to the thankless PS players.
They are really returning to the days of Black Ops 3 and Advanced Warfare. Well, I hope the Multiplayer will be good. The current Black Ops 6 has its strong points, but also weaknesses. Too many small maps, too fast and little time to kill. The combination isn't great and not as good as MW2 and MW3 before. I hope for Black Ops 7, even with wall running and the omni movement, that the maps at least are bigger again and matches are more interesting. I bet the campaign will be nice.
@AgentCooper yeah, it's really a great system. I buy most games on XBox, it's just awesome in every way I think. Better than PS5 in my opinion, even if the PS5 is also a pretty good system.
@AgentCooper Thank you very much. I already had the standard Series X for about 2 years and 9 months. A friend of mine will buy my old model. It's maybe luxury, but I was so hooked about the galaxy edition since it's release. And with the price increases and all and 2TB SSDs are still pretty expensive. I was happy, that the Galaxy Edition was available again.
I will enjoy my new Series X Galaxy Edition a bit. I guess Metal Gear Solid Delta and maybe some Black Ops 6. On Switch 2 Kirby and the forgotten Land.
@Cakefish what are you talking??? It's not just the CPU in the Series S, which is a bit weaker. Especially the GPU is way weaker than Series X. It also has only 10GB RAM and not 16GB like Series X. The Series S is a cheapshot model, which was designed to sell more subscriptions to people with a smaller budget.
@Ricky-Spanish well it's a question about the perspective. I own a Switch 2 and I like it. I'm pretty amazed how Sonic X Shadow and Hitman are running on it.
But I've seen enough comparisons in the meantime, how Series S version run on demanding games. I'm not even talking about the framerate.
But resolutions reaching to 720p or even less, low detail geometry and more aren't something I would call: "it runs great"
I will always prefer the stronger console versions with games like these.
This remake is so awesome, easily one of my games of the year so far. Also one of the absolute visual bangers of this Gen. I'm playing on Series X in visual mode, the 30fps are fine for me since this is a slow paced game.

Re: Everwild Screenshots Leak Online Several Months After Xbox Cancellation
What was this suppto be? A garden simulator??
I don't think we missed something.
I'm still sad about Perfect Dark.
Re: Poll: Are You Buying Battlefield 6 For Xbox On Launch Weekend?
No interest at all.
I pre-ordered Black Ops 7 and will have a blast with that game.
Re: If Your Battlefield 6 Crew Plays On Xbox, It'll Earn Less XP Than On PlayStation
Since I'm not into Battlefield, I don't care. I play CoD instead.
Re: Pick One: Which Is Your Favourite Double Fine Game On Xbox?
I chose Psychonauts 2 since it's like the only game I have from these
Re: Talking Point: Would You Still Buy An Elite Series 3 Controller For Xbox Series X|S?
Would be a question, what it has on offer. Right now, there are better alternatives than Microsofts expensive controllers from 3rds.
Re: Battlefield 6's Xbox File Size Is Much Smaller On Series S Than Series X
Is this a surprise? Lower resolution and details makes smaller file sizes.

Nice, didn't see that coming

Re: Black Ops 7 Beta Review (Xbox) - A Bit Of A Re-Skin, But Zombies Mode Shines
I like it so far and looking forward to the full game.
Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions Of The Black Ops 7 Beta On Xbox?
@Ricky-Spanish no my friend, it's a big improvement over Black Ops 6.
Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions Of The Black Ops 7 Beta On Xbox?
@TrevorP86 you should have tried more. It's much fun and fits well into the gameplay.
Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions Of The Black Ops 7 Beta On Xbox?

Re: 'Price Increases Are Never Fun For Anybody' Says Xbox Exec Defending Game Pass Changes
That's a real lame excuse from him.
And I'm not even hurt, since I don't use GP Ultimate. But the value is something, many people didn't ask for.
Re: Poll: What Are Your Plans For Xbox Game Pass After This Week's News?
I'll stick with Core(Essential now) and grabbed another year. I was done with Ultimate either way.
Re: Xbox Game Pass Premium May Be The Best-Value Tier Right Now, With Almost 50 Games Added
@FraserG yeah absolutely. And I believe, many users will quit Ultimate now.
Re: Oblivion Remastered Is Getting A Physical Release For Xbox Series X
Wonders still happen. Sadly it's a game I have 0 interest in.
I would party a disc version of Hi-Fi Rush.
Re: First ROG Xbox Ally Unboxing Appears Online Prior To Release
I can't pop my game Discs into that device. So it's pretty useless to me. And I don't plan going full digital.
But I guess, there will be a market for this thing.
Re: Silent Hill F Hits Impressive Sales Milestone Just One Day After Multiplatform Release
I'm one of the XBox physical buyers. Love it so far.
Some new unusual things and it still feels totally like a Silent Hill game.
Re: Silent Hill F Hits Impressive Sales Milestone Just One Day After Multiplatform Release
@Fiendish-Beaver which will take some time. Why did you buy it at release than? 😅
Re: Review: Silent Hill F (Xbox) - A New Front For Konami As Silent Hill Makes Its Return

Re: Review: Silent Hill F (Xbox) - A New Front For Konami As Silent Hill Makes Its Return

Re: Xbox Is Looking For Fans Who Want To Take Part In 'Research Opportunities'
They really should research, how to make the XBox Series more appealing again to the world market.
Re: Poll: How Would You Grade Xbox's Tokyo Game Show 2025 Event?
@ElkinFencer10 yeah man, would love to have it too.
Re: Poll: How Would You Grade Xbox's Tokyo Game Show 2025 Event?
C for me. It was more appealing than Sonys stream, but also not that exciting.
Forza Horizon 6 war clearly the highlight.
And Ninja Gaiden 4 isn't far anymore.
Re: Forza Horizon 6 Heads To Japan In 2026, Day One On Xbox Game Pass
Great news, can't wait. And I'm glad that it's at least coming later to PS5. Microsoft should push their consoles more.
Re: Xbox Makes Its First State Of Play Appearance As Microsoft Flight Sim 2024 Jets Off To PS5
Let's be honest. It's a simulator, not many people are interested in this. I don't think it sold that well.
So it's ok, if it's reaching a bigger audience.
It's way more absurd, that Gears Reloaded came to the thankless PS players.
Re: Ampere Analysis: Xbox Users Play More Games, But For A Shorter Amount Of Time
Well, some people go working. And others suffer from the exhaustion selection of Ultimate. It's always funny how many people don't complete games.
Re: Xbox Fan Gets Physical Refund From Bethesda Over Cancelled Redfall DLC
Is Redfall recommendable? I never played it so far and it's very cheap.
Re: Xbox Fan Gets Physical Refund From Bethesda Over Cancelled Redfall DLC
@Kaloudz that would be fine with the Buffy games. I miss these simple action games these days.
Re: Review: Silent Hill F (Xbox) - A New Front For Konami As Silent Hill Makes Its Return
Great, that it was reviewed on PS5 on a Xbox site. 😄
I pre ordered on XBox, of course.
Re: Activision Shows Off First Proper Look At COD: Black Ops 7 Multiplayer
They are really returning to the days of Black Ops 3 and Advanced Warfare.
Well, I hope the Multiplayer will be good. The current Black Ops 6 has its strong points, but also weaknesses. Too many small maps, too fast and little time to kill. The combination isn't great and not as good as MW2 and MW3 before.
I hope for Black Ops 7, even with wall running and the omni movement, that the maps at least are bigger again and matches are more interesting.
I bet the campaign will be nice.

Re: Unnamed Xbox Game Studios Title Shows Up On Tokyo Game Show's 2025 Schedule
Forza Horizon Tokyo Drift.
Re: Halo: The Master Chief Collection Gets Surprise Update On Xbox & PC
I guess they didn't fix the biggest issue:
Only the Halo 3 and Halo 3 ODST campaigns are playable through coop Crossplay.
Re: Two Big Free Demos Are Now Live On The Xbox Store
I'm really disappointed, that the game isn't playable in couch coop.
Re: First Silent Hill F Review Suggests The Series' Return To Xbox Has Been Worth The Wait

Re: Another Three Titles Are Joining Xbox Game Pass Core This October
Yay. Finally my subscription gets new games, which I probably will never play. 😁
Re: Borderlands 4 Comparison Shows Difference Between Xbox Series X And Series S

It's a very good game. Got it at the beginning of this year very cheap and played it for a good amount of time. Sadly I'm not yet finished.

Re: Star Wars Outlaws Compared Across Switch 2 & Xbox Series S, And The Results Are Interesting
Nintendo really reached Series "S" power, yay.
But at least it's very cheap on voltage and the Nintendo games look superb.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Delta Update Improves Textures & Models On Xbox, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

Also one of the absolute visual bangers of this Gen. I'm playing on Series X in visual mode, the 30fps are fine for me since this is a slow paced game.
Re: Xbox Dev MachineGames Hints At Wolfenstein 3 Following Indiana Jones DLC
@RiverGenie same.
I would prefer a new Wolfenstein to the boring Indiana Jones game.
