Considering the woes that activision are going through, and the gender discrimination lawsuit over at sony, no wonder these companies got along so well.
All joking aside. There is no place, for these kind of acts, workplace or elsewhere.
Well, considering the article that said some stores aren't selling the series x|s' due to gamepass, xcloud being available elsewhere(ie phones, tablets) and on older consoles, I'm surprised it's that high.
@JON22 I had this problem as well, only when using my xbo bt controller on my series s. I updated that xbo bt controller, and haven't had an issue since.
I feel kinect could've been as successful as psvr, if it remained an optional accessory. Kinect 2.0 could've had an AR/VR type headset, that illumi-room thing could've expanded, etc. But once ms started forcing people to buy it, with the underpowered xbo, it was downhill from there.
@Dusk_Actual damn, considering there are 6 more yakuza games after zero, not counting like a dragon or the judgement spinoffs, you may not get to ME this year🤣
@BBB well, I can turn away a "complimentary dog turd", I'm not obligated to accept it. Same with these free games. Don't like them, walk on by. No one was crying about "getting free games", when it wasn't an option. Like the saying goes, "give'em an inch, and they think they're a ruler". I understand "opinions", but being critical is different. People were critical of the xbox live price increase. No one liked it. They changed it. People not liking the free games, is opinion. Cause some like it.
I am getting value, but I'm a gamepass subscriber. But "value" is subjective, right?
You have a great 2022, as well. I'm on the way to grab my serious x. Finally!
People will complain about anything. It's not being "critical". What's next bit•chin about the "free samples" at big box stores?? "I pay a yearly membership to Costco! They need to put out samples I want!" DERP
@The_Pixel_King if you have an abundance of older xbox games on disc and want/need "4k gaming and ray tracing" then a series x is for you. But if not, then the series s will do.
So when I look at my games list, the optimized games usually have the X|S mark on the store page or icon, etc., but I don't see those logos for remnant: from the ashes. Is this optimized for series x, but not s?
I've seen the majority of people, and they fcukin suck. So when they have a platform, that affords them anonymity, of course the vitriol is gonna come out. A lot of pent up frustration, because of their lot in life. You can tell how small, intellectually and physically, some is when they jump straight to racist or homophobic taunts.
Til I get a series x, I'm sticking with the series s. It helps that it has a buttload of games, from the past, to the present. Although, the one thing I do miss from older generations, is the ability to upload music to the console and have it play your songs in games.
@FraserG man, no rest for the weary, huh. I see your mug on more articles than anyone else. Keep up the great work and happy holidays, from the colonies
Man. With the addition of cloud gaming, hitting those weekly gamepass quests are a cinch. No need to download anything, just load up the cloud version, boom unlocked.
Tinfoil hat on: the cyberpunk dystopia I've been reading about, is slowly coming to fruition. With the "metaverse" I see the poorer people "plugging" into their "decks", to escape, etc. With all these ransacked stores, by mass crowds, the corporate police can't be far behind. The vast chasm between the rich and the poor. Robotics advancing at an alarming rate. Reading about it, is more fun than experiencing it...I hope.
Some halo infinite, followed by some assassin's creed odyssey free play day, with some dying light on the switch. Really surprised at how well dying light runs, in handheld mode.
Meh, give it time and it'll be back. Remember when ms said "always online", backtracked, and now the devs are doing it instead of a platform. Like when jim ryan said "generations" then started releasing things on ps4/5. Yeah, "companies" don't care about people, just profits.
Oh, so kind of like how stores have their own generic brand, to go along with the coke's and the pepsi's. That's gonna be this halo. I mean it's not what we've played, nor read.
When this drops, physically ot digitally, with all the previous content, I'll probably...😶.. who am I kidding, I'll probably wait for it to go on sale, still. Too many games to play, but this does look interesting.
Out of left field: ..so, with GoW releasing on pc, soon, with ultra graphics settings, etc., does that mean the series x can play the best version through geforce now?
I got a series s, so most of my gaming is digital, as well as my backlog. But nevertheless, if I bought physical, I would expect to be able to play out of the box. Whether it needed a day one patch or not.
Man, I was looking forward to this, but after the 78 from pcgamer and the 3.5/5 from Tom's guide, whoever that is, I have to say I'm still excited to play this! AAAHHHHaahhhhahhhAHHHHAHHHahhh 😅halo theme, sorry
@S1ayeR74 So... My first experience with gen zero. I create a character, get stuck in the loading screen after the little story of crashing on the shore. Then an achievement pops up, "Fashionista - collect 200 items of apparel" ha! Close game, restart. My second experience, was much better. I went through about 5 "missions" got some weapons, an assault rifle, sniper rifle, shotgun, handgun. Looking for the residents, after the bomb shelter. Thus far, not a bad game. It's fun.
@aj102404 but these aren't emails, they're direct messages. So she probably gets dings and alerts, every min asking for stupid shyte. That can get tiring. With emails, unless notifications is turned on, you can check at your leisure. Yeah, she could turn off notifications for her dms, as well, but she might miss something important, amongst the detritus.

@S1ayeR74 So...
My first experience with gen zero. I create a character, get stuck in the loading screen after the little story of crashing on the shore. Then an achievement pops up, "Fashionista - collect 200 items of apparel" ha!
Close game, restart.
My second experience, was much better. I went through about 5 "missions" got some weapons, an assault rifle, sniper rifle, shotgun, handgun. Looking for the residents, after the bomb shelter.
Thus far, not a bad game. It's fun.
