I would assume the sticks would wear out before the internal battery. How about just better replaceable parts in general?

@Kaloudz Agree to disagree. I haven't heard of 95% of the games on this list.

@AgnosticGamer No attitude at all. A simple request to not include personal opinion inserts into News articles is all that was requested.

@Kaloudz For opinions pieces yes, for News articles no. Discussions are indeed welcome which is why there is a comment section. However, personal opinions have no place in News articles-unless you're Fox News of course.

It's a shame that readers can't express constructive criticism without other readers getting on their high horse and losing their minds.

Maybe a section after the article broken with a horizontal break labeling it as the authour's personal opinion is needed if the authour wishes to add their opinions on News items.

"...including this month's big release Mafia: The Old Country. The rest of the list is perhaps a little less exciting..."

Please don't add personal opinions to 'News' articles. Be better.

Gradius Origins, Gungrave G.O.R.E, Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid, and others are fun games that some will find "more exciting."

This comment has been edited slightly. Cheers.

@dodgykebaab @HardRockGamer Yup

@Zenszulu I'm not criticizing them. I said I don't listen to them anymore because I want a full representation of the product they are advertising. I also said "those are important things" that they cover.

It's fine if others want to only know about a portion of the product they're covering. You people need to learn how to read the context of comments on here.

@Exerion76 @AliceInChains Exactly. They don't talk about the complete games themselves. The art, sound, controls, playability, etc. They care about framerates, performance, and the like.

It's not a full representation of a product they are advertising. At the end of the day they are advertisers and the majority of their comments are not about the complete product.

People can watch whatever they like, clearly, but they need to remember they're not getting the full picture for, again, the majority of the advertisement. Make no mistake, any text, audio, or video about a product you can buy is an advertisement.

I stopped listening to Digital Foundry awhile back. They show no interest in how the gameplay is. All they care about is visuals and performance. They should cover paintings.

With that said, those are important things but holy ***** does their bias show. When I did listen they came off as snooty and pertinacious with little to nothing positive to say about the Xbox platform. In the end I found little value from their work.

Even in this post there is ZERO mention of how the game actually plays/handles. Again, if all you care about is visuals and performance follow their work. If you care about gameplay and, looking back to GamePro reviews, the fun factor-look elsewhere.

@dreadful I think in two generations we won't have to worry about hardware anymore. If anything MS/Xbox knows this and they're getting ahead of everyone.

Xbox has had a few missteps.

@Lup I wasn't allowed to say what sexual acts we should be allowed to do to the strippers in the game.

Make cross buy the standard. Please.

Don't ever stop being on sale XCOM 2. It's expected of you to be on these lists every time there's a sale.

@Kezelpaso Canada would love to be included if you do move forward with adding the prices.

Oh Antstream Arcade. The video stream uses more bandwidth than the actual size of the game. It's a service that works but is a huge waste of...everything.

I'm going to grab it on Steam when there's a 20% sale. No hurry at all. With that said, I really wish play anywhere/cross-buy was better.

Would be nice to see Canadian pricing as well.

If this came bundled together with an Xbox version of the number pad I would grab it in an instant. Also, the cost is very high for what it is.

At the end of the day income is income. I have no interest in this title myself. Happy Xbox is getting more players playing their titles.

@OldGamer999 I remember when people could just sit down and play a game for fun and not complain straightaway.

Ubisoft really needs to make a new Far Cry Instincts. That formula was great. It's a shame they only did one stand alone expansion and a port of them for the 360.

We're all forgetting that in two years Nintendo is going to release the Nintendo Switch 2 Lite? That's the product they should have released at the same time as the NS2. Also, then in another two years the Nintendo Switch 2 OLED is going to come?

I loved the first Lego Marvel game BUT you were unable to invert any of the axis'. Shame really.

Everyone here has a backlog bigger than the list of games shown during the direct. We're not in a hurry.

FromSoftware needs to redeem themselves and make another Steel Battalion.

There are countless ways to play the game. I'm good.

Bring back Star War Galaxies you cowards!

@Aidax89 I really enjoy Guild Wars 2, but hot damn-the first Guild Wars is my jam. I love the fact when you leave the city it felt like PSO. The whole world to yourself and your group. If/when they shut it down I'm going to be gutted. Hopefully they'll allow players to host a server themselves.

Edit, with that said add PSOv2. This should have been backwards compatible.

$180.80 Canadian before shipping. ***** off.

@LogicStrikesAgain They're all guilty, some more than others. Let's not forget that the only reason why Sony is in the game business because of spite.

Are people forgetting how petty Sony is? They paid, for years, for games not to be on other consoles. They are anti-competition.

At this point it doesn't matter. We have enough games to play until we die. The videogame industry is a ***** show as it is. No matter what happens no one will be happy.

I just want an Xbox that will let me play all the digital games I've purchased from the Xbox 360 forward. How many titles have we bought that we either don't play or can't play?

Just get a PC and save your money by pirating like a there's no tomorrow.

I'm not a fan of sport games that I can physically do. So no.

They did it! And wow!

You know, if I could link my Steam account to my Xbox account and get 'Xbox Play Anywhere' access to the games I've already purchased on Steam that would be great.

We need cross-buy for all platforms. Greed is the reason why we don't.

Poor AI Shark. Microsoft is way ahead of them. For those that may not know, the founder of InterAct Accessories was promoting this exact same thing.

If the handheld isn't full featured at launch it might just be dead in the water.

I'm personally not going to buy a device when it comes out just so I can wait for it to maybe play my games.

@UnusedBabyWipes I worked 18 years, 2003-2011, at EBGames Canada and you would not, well you probably would, believe how toxic the PlayStation user base was compared to every other player base combined.

When kids-adults would ask me what I thought was better I always said "As long as you're having fun, that's all that maters." When they followed up asking what I was playing right now I would normally answer with the 'Sword of the Berserk; Guts Rage' on Dreamcast, because come 'on it's Berserk.

PlayStation fans are only happy when others fan groups are miserable.

I just want new remaster of Far Cry Instincts.

Edit: I'm dreading Push Square posting their own article. The comments are going to be a ***** show.

The odds of someone not having a Microsoft account are much lower than someone not having a PSN account. Brand accounts will always be here, like it or not.

Remember when digital movies tried to have a single account? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UltraViolet_(website)

I could care less about a service that will one day be turned off. Even before then no one will be on for matchmaking.

People will want it as a day one feature again players but will just go back to other games anyways. Just make it single player and COUCH multiplayer.

Can't wait for a big sale to purchase this when I have time to play it.

I'm probably done buying consoles. I have an X1X and haven't found the need to move over to the X|S. If the new Xbox offers something like full backwards compatibility with your 360+ digital library and OGX+ discs, OR access to your Steam library then I'm down. But I don't see the need right now.

Just pack in a digital code for the game with a Series S with no discount and toss some stickers in the box as well.

The gaming industry really needs a universal cross-buy system.

I don't see why every single time a game is announced for PlayStation it needs a post. It's nice that others can play these games and generate revenue for Xbox but holyshit, stop "News" spamming the website. This doesn't affect Xbox console gamers at all.

I honestly don't own either console. If their games were all 1080p/60fps I would be happy with that. I don't care about ray tracing, ai garbage, or the like.

We're at the point where we have hundreds and hundreds of titles available and we'll never actually play all the titles we purchase.

Far Cry Instincts 2. F'N do it you cowards!

Ah, I see the mistake that was made. This was posted on Twitter.
