@jikflet really? That were 2 chapters with the bigger world. I actually liked them as a mix of gameplay. It played fast and didn't take too much time.

I took Gears 5.
I completed this game last year for the first time and in the end, I was really surprised in how great it was. I didn't believe it, but in terms of graphics, presentation, atmosphere and gameplay variety, I think this was the best of the Gears games.
After 5 comes 2 for me and than 1.

...Some actually chose Judgment. 😁

@GuyinPA75 my talking, pal.

Sounds amazing. I'll be happy to add this to my library in a few days.

Interesting. So physical releases should go through the ceiling on XBox Series X.

I have the disc version of the Ultimate Edition. If I don't get the upgrade free, I won't buy it.
I still can't believe, that Microsoft is really giving this to PlayStation, it feels so wrong.
The only benefit is, that Crossplay is a thing now.
And of course, on Playstation front, they will earn money with this release.
Sony should give XBox audience The Last of Us as a sign of thank.

@ElkinFencer10 that's the modern Microsoft. Hello to PlayStation and middlefinger for their true fans using discs.

So what about disc users???

No I won't install that ssd killer anymore.

Gears on Playstation, this is too much for my heart. My mood is ruined today. This can't be true.

@TheSimulator 2025 is totally fine. Games like this are rare these days and it looks very good.

@Matthewnh yeah the driving at the beginning also reminded me of Watch Dogs 1.
Besides that, I don't think that Watch Dogs was style over substance.
I don't know what some people were expecting, but I absolutely love this game until this day. All 3 Watch Dogs games are worth playing, but 1 is my all time classic.

I don't see Grand theft Auto here. It looks like a story driven, straight forward action game with gunplay and driving and I absolutely want it.

Well, I still think the Series X is the best console right now and it's actually worth its price.
But for someone, who would start now after over 4 years, it's pretty crazy. The next XBox could arrive in 2027.

Also about 70% of players didn't complete the first chapter of Indiana Jones.
I think, if you're actually buying a game, there's more attraction to play it.
In case of Game Pass Ultimate, I guess most people don't know what to play anymore because of the ridiculous amount of games.

This is really heavy. No generation like this before. Even though I would say, the Series X with disc drive is the worth that price.

That's also a reason, I stopped GP Ultimate. I don't have the time for all of this. It took me like a month to complete Indiana Jones. Now I'm waiting for Doom The Dark Ages and I can't decide what to play in the waiting time. I have way more games than I get to play.

@Tasuki thank you for the detailed informations. 🙂

@Ricky-Spanish there even was a pre sequel?

@Tasuki thanks for the advice, mate. I'll keep that in mind.
Was asking myself one day, if Tiny Tinas Wonderland might be good.

Never played any of the games so far. But I really enjoyed that movie. Maybe I'll give Borderlands 4 a try.

No wonder. Series S is a cheap hardware, so it's cheap graphics. Very amusing that people defend that little white box.

@TrevorP86 they are not elite. I also got one of them a was very disappointed.

@Krzzystuff PowerA has made wireless Xbox controllers in the meantime with Hall Effect sticks. I recommend those. They use a USB dongle for wireless play

What a horrible evolution.
Maybe it's also due to the delivery problems with the Series X over some weeks. At least in Germany, it's fixed in the meantime.
But there's no denying that digital has the bigger part of sales today.
I still know why I'm buying games physical, but also, physical means full shelves in the living room, so I started buying "some" games digital.

Wasn't expecting this, wow!
So I'll add this to my collection this year.

@Romans12 I bought it in spring sale. I rather have it digital on XBox than on PS5.
This remaster is awesome so far.

@Fiddleroyolanda and you're perfectly showing, that you are a PS5 fanboy. Which means, you're judging me for something, you're doing yourself.
I hope you're getting banned soon here.

@Fiddleroyolanda I'm am Xbox fan on an Xbox site. I just want Xbox to be as successful as it deserves to be again.
And I'm getting insulted for that as a "loser" from ??? Who are....
I won't get on your low level of behavior, I reported you.

@FraserG yeah, I know what you mean. You're right about that.

Annoying, that PS5 is again immediately supported. XBox should have its absolute domination right now... 😒

Bring a disc version and I'm in. Same goes to Hi-Fi Rush.

Definitely, from the modern MW series, this had the absolutely best campaign.

@Vectrex right, same here. I don't see why I should pay early for this. And I can wait these early 2 or 3 days.

@themightyant yeah, I got it. Thank you.

I'm looking forward to it. Never played any of the 3 so far. This could be an opportunity, that I finally dive in.

I don't get it. What's so special about that?
As far as I know, streaming is already available trough XBox Game Pass Ultimate.
Or is it about games, which are not inside the Game Pass library?
I would enjoy a better option to stream my disc games to my tablet.

@Millionski oh yes, I'm very interested. The thing is, I can't get rid of that: I want to own these games.
So games, I really want, I buy these. It makes me happier than just paying for a subscription. It feels like endless paying.
For the wallet, I guess it's smarter just using Game Pass Ultimate.
And with my physical collection, I'm so busy that i realized, it's not worth it for me.
For some indie games, I say Game Pass is great. For example: Unpacking
I had a great time, great game. It was short, it was fun. I don't need to own this.
But games like Atelier Yumia, Doom The Dark Ages, Indiana Jones, I just need to buy these.

@Millionski I have an opinion about subscriptions. Not that I'm totally against everything.
I think for some people, Game Pass Ultimate is a good deal. And of course stacking is still possible.
For me personally, Ultimate just isn't worth it anymore.

I ordered mine already. The standard Series Wireless one, shut up and take my money.
But they can keep that Elite model, never again will i buy that crap thing.

@FraserG thank you, great to hear. 👍🏼

I play way more than 1 or 2 games a year and still, Gamepass "Ultimate" isn't for me.

OMG, I'm interested.

Still not working.

PS5 gamers can be grateful, that they get to play this game!

I have no special game in mind.
I would absolutely party a new wave of backwards compatible games, some missing ones from OG XBox or some more from 360.
Beyond that, I wish that more people start realizing how great XBox Series X is.

I playing this right now, I'm in the Himalaya chapter. So I played this way more than 70% of XBox gamers who didn't even complete the first chapter. 😁
I like it, even if it has some flaws.

Since I don't use Ultimate anymore, I will wait for a price drop. But I'm really looking forward to it.

That's not easy to say. All I know is, that I have a blast of a time with my Series X and way to many games, which i enjoy and don't have enough time for all of them.

@DalamarX I didn't say, I don't want a Switch 2. I'm just realistic.
I don't care about the 3rd party games on Switch 2, because I have a Series X.
But I want to play Mario Kart and Donkey Kong.
But I won't buy a Switch 2 day 1.
