Yeah, that's an absolute negative. Obsidian are good at what they do, and need to be left alone, other than given a good budget and creative freedom. That's what Microsoft seems to want to do, but only time will tell.
Ay this point, even a New Vegas remaster would break the internet for a day.
I bought one of the Xbox partnered Samsung tv's the 55" Q80A, and it doesn't support Dolby Vision... but I get 4k @ 120 w HDR via hdmi 2.1. I love this new TV...
Really, the only way I see a dedicated Game Pass handheld working, is if you can download the games.
Otherwise, phones, tablets, PC's and even other Xbox are fine, there's no reason to buy a full dedicated cloud device, if a controller and the device in your pocket does the same thing.
@swagbag713 Yeah, it doesn't seem like anything new or any re-releases that have to do with MGS will be coming anytime soon.
I get that Konami has a bunch of other revenue streams, but damn if they aren't disappointing a LOT of people with all they've done with most their beloved series.
When Skyrim came out 11:11:11, it was when Bethesda was at its best (so far) in my opinion. They perfected the formula they had been working on since Morrowind, and really affected every open world game that came out after.
I think they may even still have better days ahead, as long as they steer away from games as a service, and focus on refining what they do best, as well as innovating like they always have.
I hope that Google Home support is expanded too, and with Microsoft being more open to partners launching apps on their platform and vice versa, I don't see it being far off.
I wonder if the Bethesda acquisition will help Microsoft make first person shooters better? I mean, they can now reference ID Software technology and utilize it as well.
I can't reccommend Black Ops when it still crashes 3/5 time I try and play it. (Yes I tried no ray tracing, and the stupid "fix") Otherwise the list is good.
Watch dogs did benefit from the frame boost, but the 900p resolution does still hold it back. Otherwise, I still ran into the same bugs that game has always suffered.
Sniper Elite on the other hand is enhanced with no question. I had a hard time playing that game on One X because it felt like the frames were all over the place. Now the game is excellent. I was able to pull off some quick shots that would have been impossible without the framerate boost. It made the game SO much more playable and enjoyable.
I bet the announcement will be the first wave of first party Series X/S enhancements are dropping for games from their newly acquired studios.
With all the hype around a supposed 'New Vegas 2', and M*soft owning both Bethesda and Obsidian, I wouldn't be surprised if New Vegas got a One X style enhancement as well. Pretty sure that was one of the most requested titles to be enhanced as well.

Re: Obsidian Was Approached By 'Another Major Publisher' Before The Microsoft Acquisition

Re: Here's Every Game That Supports Dolby Vision On Xbox So Far
I bought one of the Xbox partnered Samsung tv's the 55" Q80A, and it doesn't support Dolby Vision... but I get 4k @ 120 w HDR via hdmi 2.1. I love this new TV...
Am I really missing out without Dolby vision?
Re: Deals: The Best Bargains In The Xbox Summer Sale 2021
Is Metro Exodus any good for Series X? I only got to play it a ti y bit back when it was on gamepass, and not upgraded for next gen yet.
Re: Talking Point: Should Xbox Create A Dedicated Handheld Device?
Really, the only way I see a dedicated Game Pass handheld working, is if you can download the games.

Re: Talking Point: Are Next-Gen Upgrades Worth Getting An Xbox Series X|S For?
@UltimateOtaku91 All I had on PS2 was Mgs2 at launch. All I had on 360 was Cod2 and Oblivion.
Have you not experienced many console launches? 😂
Re: Xbox Hands Out $10 Gift Cards Following Design Lab 'System Error'
I had a system error, and could not even finish customising one, and I was logged in to my profile. No message from Xbox or gift card....
Re: Jungle Survival Sim Green Hell Adventures To Xbox This June
Reminds me of Stranded Deep, which I did get a decent amount of entertainment.
I'm gonna check it out more and may end up getting it for my gf and I. She's into these types of games.
Re: These 'Leaked' Battlefield 6 Images Reveal Explosions And Robot Dogs
My friends and I are excited about this! They've been working on it for a long cycle (for a Battlefield game esp.) and I hope it pays off.
Re: Adidas Is Teaming Up With Xbox To Release Some Cool New Kicks
@StonyKL I'm not ashamed of anything I like. I still wear whatever I want at 31, and don't let people dictate how I should look, unless I'm at work.
Re: Adidas Is Teaming Up With Xbox To Release Some Cool New Kicks
I like them, but a green inlay would have been cool, or just a bit more subtle green somewhere.
I would definitely buy these if they are reasonably priced, which they more than likely won't be.
Also, Adidas does some of the best crossover stuff. Will love Adidas X Star Wars forever. Even the ads are still golden.

The upgrade is not working on Series X at all! Check Twitter and reddit!
Re: Back 4 Blood Has Been Delayed Until October
I hope they take as long as they need, and everything goes well. Cross play with PC would be amazing on this title. 🤞
Re: Pick One: Which Of These Bethesda Games Is Your Favourite?
When Skyrim came out 11:11:11, it was when Bethesda was at its best (so far) in my opinion. They perfected the formula they had been working on since Morrowind, and really affected every open world game that came out after.

Re: Poll: How Full Is Your Xbox Series X|S Internal Storage?
I have the Seagate 1TB, and the green Xbox Seagate 2TB external. I have roughly 4TB total, and less than 300GB open.
I have Game Pass to thank for that.
Re: Guide: Best Xbox Series X Games
I can't reccommend Black Ops when it still crashes 3/5 time I try and play it. (Yes I tried no ray tracing, and the stupid "fix") Otherwise the list is good.
Re: Poll: How Are You Finding FPS Boost On Xbox Series X|S So Far?
I tried Watch Dogs 2 and Sniper Elite.
Watch dogs did benefit from the frame boost, but the 900p resolution does still hold it back. Otherwise, I still ran into the same bugs that game has always suffered.
Sniper Elite on the other hand is enhanced with no question. I had a hard time playing that game on One X because it felt like the frames were all over the place. Now the game is excellent. I was able to pull off some quick shots that would have been impossible without the framerate boost. It made the game SO much more playable and enjoyable.
Re: Talking Point: Which Games Need 'FPS Boosts' For Xbox Series X|S?
My list would be too long, so I'm going top 5 that aren't related to the currently known titles:
MGSV
Bioshock Trilogy
Assasins Creed Black Flag
GTA IV and San Andreas
Jurassic World Evolution
I really want New Vegas to get some love too, after it missed out on the 'One X Enhanced' treatment.
