Re: Forza Horizon Briefly Returns To The Xbox Store

Pichuka97

Maybe it's getting relisted soon? Missed out on the DLC before it was delisted. I've been playing Horizon 2 on 360 off and on and as barebones as it is, it's still pretty fun. People still play that more than the original amazingly

Re: Multiple Xbox 360 Games Suffer Stealth Server Shutdowns

Pichuka97

Man that sucks. Was just playing Far Cry 3 online a few weeks ago. Still had a decent community playing online. I really wish Xbox had a "Community Game Night" they would promote a couple of times a month. They promote an old game and could maybe have it under free to play during the period, then people would go back and enjoy said game. They used to do something similar back in the 360 days, but those were for more recent releases. Could you imagine if they took a dead COD like Ghosts on the One and had a week promotion of it, sales would be way up and those servers would finally have more than 200 people playing at once. Everyone wins c:

Re: Soapbox: Live Service Expectations Are The Issue, Not Halo Infinite

Pichuka97

The core game play is fun, no denying that. I think most people's frustrations come from the game feeling empty compared to prior releases and a 6 year development cycle for the game with that 1 year delay really hasn't shown that 343 gets Halo. It's the missing features, lack of progression for multi-player, and just missing basic features like l co-op. The shop seemingly got the lions share of attention because that's the thing they kept focusing on consistently after launch. I liked the game enough until I finished the battle pass and it's the only one I'm finishing because without paying, it gave ZERO reasons to even finish it. The game played kept me coming back but I'm just burnt out now. The game needs a good recharge but the longer we wait for basic features and less purchasable fluff, the more people will get turned off and leave. It's good that people enjoy it still even if it's not where others are at, hell I love Pac-Man 2 on SNES and most others dump on it but seriously, Halo Infinite doesn't feel like Halo to many anymore for the reasons I listed above and probably more. Game on if you enjoy it, but the people who don't, have valid reasons too and they should be respected. Hopefully "Season 2" brings the game back to where it should be but time will tell

Re: Deals: This Week's Backwards Compatible Offers Include Major Call Of Duty Sale

Pichuka97

Still too high of a price considering a lot of these games multi-player is bugged out one way or another. Heck, even Black Ops 3 on One is having issues these days matching people. I want to keep playing these games with friends but Activision hasn't lifted a finger to address any issues in the last few years. Shame because the actual player base for some of these games is still quite high depending on the platform

Re: Xbox Creator Demands Action As Sexist Xbox Live Recording Goes Viral

Pichuka97

I say report them and be done with it. It sucks when it happens to you but I think everyone has been a victim of this. Honestly, it happens once in a blue moon and doesn't deserve the attention it gets when it blows up. On a separate note, knowing xbox monitors party chat, I fully expect me and my buddy to be banned just for the things we say to each other privately. Gonna be a sad day when we get there. Keep it classy people, what goes around comes around

Re: Hogwarts Legacy Excited To Share 'More News And Updates' Next Year

Pichuka97

@PhileasFragg Nothing she said is wrong at the end of the day, at least to what your refrencing. But like it's been said, she isn't attatched to this game at all so your just holding back for nothing. I'm sure the game will turn out great, I have many Potter friends that are looking forward to this one and I have to say, I'm intrigued as well!

Re: 343 Shifts Halo 360 Online Service Sunset Date To January 2022

Pichuka97

Idk, I get not wanting to pay to keep servers that aren't very populated anymore but Halo 4 and Reach still pull decent numbers for 360 games. After all the kerfuffle that has been 343's handling of Infinites development, I don't buy for a minute that the reason for it is to focus on Infinite. How hard is it to get a couple of people to once in a while poke around the 360 servers and make sure they are ticking nicely? I mean either way, give it enough time and fans should bring the servers back again one day ala Insignia but then I'm losing all my progress and records. Such is life I suppose but 343 doesn't get my respect. Rant over 😋

Re: The New 'Motes' Dynamic Background Is Now Available On Xbox Series X & S

Pichuka97

This really shouldn't be hard to implement. I mean adding new themes. Dynamic or not, the 360 had a ginormous amount for purchase or free even. And you could upload your own like the One and Series offer except those are through the Xbox app now. At least MS aren't pulling a Nintendo when it comes to themes

Edit: @Chaudy you can change the color by changing your profiles personal color in the personalization section of the options. I kind of like light blue or gray for the Motes

Re: Reaction: As The PS3 Store Closes, Xbox Reminds Us How 'Critical' Game Preservation Is

Pichuka97

The PS3 store closure hurts for sure. Like if its not profitable for you, at least get a third party partner to run things or find a way to monetize these legacy stores. Yes, the majority of gamers aren't buying games from legacy stores but many still are, including myself and a few of my friends. Its not like Sony was exactly keeping the store up in tip top shape and they definitely stopped pursuing having sales on these stores so that also hurt them. At least the 360 still has support for its store and services. And I will continue to support the system till it decides to die. Keep it going Microsoft!

Re: 343 Working Hard To Optimise Halo Infinite For All Xbox Consoles & PCs

Pichuka97

This is coming from the people who swore the 2020 demo was just a few months old and the game looked much better than what we saw. Even said it was ready for release that holiday. Then the delay happens and they backtracked. Honestly, I do not trust 343 with Halo but I must be in the minority. It better be a good game considering they are "sunsetting" older games in the series to save some cash and manpower

Re: Xbox Is Officially Trying To Bring Back A Version Of 1 Vs. 100

Pichuka97

Good news to hear for sure. This is why I still stick with Xbox. They seem very passionate about their ecosystem and players. And the fact that they keep going back in the well to bring certain games and services back is just HUGE to me. Like how they still support 360 players to this day, it just makes me happy I'm invested in Xbox. I have no doubt that 1 vs 100 will come back eventually

Re: Poll: Which Has Been Your Favourite Xbox Console To Date?

Pichuka97

360 for me with a tie between the One and the OG Xbox for 2nd place. The 360 feels just more like a games console to me but was still super versatile in what you could with the hardware. Still one of my most played systems to this day. My One/X is great too but I'm super soft on the good old 360. I really hope they continue to keep the servers up. I love logging into 360 and seeing what games I can grab for cheap during a sale. Though the last few months, they haven't been updating the 360 deals tab. Excited to see how they do with Series X

Re: Here's What's Included In The May 2020 Xbox One Update

Pichuka97

The new changes to the community tab are not my cup of tea. I don't want to see anything but what my friends have been up to, not what's on mixer. At least before there was the option to filter your community tab to your preferences in terms of what shows up

Re: The Xbox Series X Will Feature A Revamped Dashboard

Pichuka97

I really hope they dont make it look as plain as the One UI has been since launch. Customizable and functionality is my biggest wish. And for god sakes, they need to stop throwing ads in our face on the dashboard. Or throwing Mixer in wherever. I have no interest in seeing spam from Mixer and other publishers in my Community tab
