If they release halo on PlayStation I doubt it’ll be the mcc collection when they would make more money with individual remasters. They are working on multiple projects so they’re probably remastering each in UE5
@Kaloudz I want to see more fable but more details on the mechanics and not just another trailer that they’ve been doing even though I like them. It’ll be good to see the morality system, buying property, etc
@Moparhippy420 if you don’t include games that haven’t been announced there’s still project Mara from ninja theory, whatever halo studios is working on, the new ip from zenimax online, fh6( which would be a stretch I think), obsidian has other projects they’re working on, the next call of duty and what double fine is working on. If you include revealed games there’s OD, blade, clockwork revolution, and a bunch others. They have a lot of games coming out
@NishimuraX I don’t think sales is the big thing they focus on, of course it’s definitely a good part of it but game pass probably makes up for the sales for the smaller games
I think this was the footage Jez cordon was talking about and that was 6 months ago so from then to release it’ll be probably 2 years development so a lot can change
I’ve played around 10 hours so far and it’s great, combat feels really good. One thing I would say could be better is the loot, every chest just gives material for crafting and a random base weapon, I’d like to see better weapon variety in chests
@swedetrap does that go for Indiana jones, hellblade 2, black ops 6, and starfield I don’t remember those games getting mid 70’s but I remember concord being a ps game and that was 62
@Bobski as much as I’d like for a new console to be shown I don’t think it’ll be this year maybe next year and I really hope it allows other apps like steam and GoG on it. And I agree I played Indiana jones and enjoyed it, not once was thinking I can’t believe ps is getting this, I got to play it that’s what matters
@Daniel1221i do agree that they’re messaging us pretty bad and a case by case basis is why it is. But why does it matter if it’s day and date on everything but on game pass game is is what keeps me on Xbox and a lot of people
@Isolte what do you think about a one year exclusive for all games, I’m good with timed exclusives but I think Xbox should make it clear that all games go over but at a certain time, a case to case basis just makes it all more confusing
@Isolte well more money = more money spent on games and game pass. Seems pretty simple if you think about it. Xbox is just a platform for game pass to be played on so it’s vital
@VoidPunk for me it’s game pass, I would not be able to afford every game if I bought them full price so game pass is very nice and there are a couple games a year that I’ve played but wouldn’t have if it weren’t for game pass
@Fiendish-Beaver also idk if this applies but if everyone would just buy at where it’s cheaper than nobody would buy on Xbox or steam because you can get cheaper keys on CD keys or eneba but since it’s easier on steam or Xbox I think convenience adds a big part. If I can buy Xbox and steam games on one console not having to deal with the upkeep a pc requires that is more enticing for me
@Fiendish-Beaver are you able to give some examples, I looked up doom the dark ages, avowed and south of midnight since they’re first party and they are selling for the same price as on Xbox
I could be wrong but I don’t think was just the name that he was saying was false but also the date, I think the console will come out in 2027 and elder scrolls 6 will be the launch title
@Medic_alert how do you know this plan won’t work more than the literal head of Xbox who knows all the numbers and knows if it’s profitable, if it’s not profitable it won’t be here simple as that
@Llamageddon Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer in an interview Windows Central revealed Xbox spends over $1 billion a year on third-party content for Xbox Game Pass and the service itself is profitable.
"We have a service that is financially viable, meaning it makes money, in Game Pass," said Spencer This is what I have for the profitable part of they were losing money for this long game pass wouldn’t still be around and as far as subscriber increase they said cod had the most subscriber increase they’ve had, time will tell if those subscribers stay but the only way subscribers will stay if there is a steady plan of releases which they’ve lacked for so long
@Boogaloo_Jenkins game pass has proven to be profitable during a pretty slow couple of years so as the games coming starts to ramp up we will see an increase in game pass subscribers
@Kaloudz even PlayStation is saying that they’re games are getting more expensive and had to release on Pc, sure it’s not as drastic as Xbox but it’s definitely going to increase as games are becoming more expensive
@DennisReynolds I will agree this gen wasn’t great with games but their line up is promising now. I’m predicting game pass will grow as more games start being produced
I think that there are too many games coming out this year because we can have a year like 2023 and then 2024 won’t be as plentiful when it can be spread through more years

Re: Soapbox: As A Huge Forza Fan, I'm Fine With Horizon 5 Going To PS5
@NeoRatt to be fair the amount of people who complain is a small percentage of the overall fan base. You only hear them because they’re the most vocal
Re: Soapbox: As A Huge Forza Fan, I'm Fine With Horizon 5 Going To PS5
@armondo36 I think they would’ve ported to Xbox if Xbox sold more consoles but it’s way more valuable to port to pc and for Xbox to port to ps
