If it's Halo, I'm done permanently with Xbox. the announcement of Gears going to the PS5 was the first mistake for me personally. I no longer have Game Pass because of that. Loyalty is obviously a thing of the past. Halo being ported would be the end for me.
I rarely buy games and when I do, it's for my PS5 pro. I don't even have GP anymore. I just come to this site to see what's new in the world of Xbox. Lately, it's been kinda bad but whatever. I cannot see buying another Xbox based on how I feel Microsoft runs their gaming division. Just my opinion.
Avowed. lol. Already forgotten about this one. Played it for an hour and thought it was horrible. I'm sure the "Ultimate" version will come out in a year or so for the PS5.
@galson Exactly how I feel. I've been looking for games to play on my PS5 pro. For me, my Game Pass subscription expires in two days. Definitely not renewing it right now. Maybe one day. Doubt it though.
Reminds me of when the Killzone trailer for the PS3 was released. Sony was saying "in game engine" and "actual gameplay". When the game came out, I could not stop laughing between the differences. Since then, until I play a game, it's not the game.
@awp69 MOST does not mean ALL. Otherwise, Phil Spencer, the head of XBOX, would not be making any announcement in regards to layoffs. Educate yourself before posting.
Still playing Oblivion on the PS5 pro. Looks and plays better than my Series X version. And yes, some games I love so much, I buy them for both systems.
I'll take more of Sarah Bond. Other than that, nothing. Kinda moved most of my gaming to my PS5 pro. I figure any new game from Xbox will eventually make it's way over there and it will be the best version by then. Cheers.
So once again, it gets a graphical upgrade when it comes out for the PS5 Pro. Lol. And us Xbox owners got the inferior version when it was released. I know I'm in the minority on this one, but I choose to vote with my wallet in the future.
No reason for me to ever purchase another Xbox. I do not approve of their business practices. Microsoft is pathetic.
There are some games I wish I could still play: Escape from Butcher Bay, Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Deus Ex: Invisible War. Gotta check to see if they are playable on the 360. I would buy a 360 just for these three.
This is the pounds amount, so that's over $800 for the cheaper model and over $1200 for the better model in US dollars? Is that accurate? If that's the case, that's insane. A hard no for me.
What he probably means is that it's going to be a real great year for the PS5 due to all the Xbox games being ported. Meaning, it's going to be a real great year for Microsoft due to all the money they will make.
If it's a new Halo game, that would definitely not be coming to the PS5. Halo CE remake is even hard to imagine. If that is the case, I'll be only playing my PS5 and get rid of the Series X. I vote with my wallet and I believe the Halo franchise should stay on the Xbox. If not, I'm moving on. Unless Sony announces that God of War is coming to the Series X.
Not sure what's going on with Halo. Kinda sad. That was Microsoft's number one franchise and they allowed it to be shelved. A new Halo game should come out every three years. As far as ES 6, we won't see anything on that because Bethesda now takes 20 years between games. They went from making games every three years to every other decade. Other than that, I love Game Pass. Tons of stuff to play otherwise.
What does the PS5 console have to do with anything?
1. Xbox is leading the way with Game Pass. 2. Microsoft has more money than almost any company in the world. It's all about money. Microsoft wins. Facts. p.s. absolutely love my PS5 btw.
Tried out Doom. I think it's horrible. Quit, uninstall after about an hour. Other than that, very much invested in the world of Oblivion. I'll be playing that for a while.

Re: Talking Point: So, Are You Buying Mafia: The Old Country On Xbox At Its $50 Price Point?
Two questions:

So, no.

Re: Talking Point: After Almost Two Years, How Do You Feel About Xbox's Starfield In 2025?
I tried multiple times to get into it and it just seemed unfinished. But, I'm sure when it comes out for the PS5, it will be a perfect 10.

Re: Talking Point: What's Your Xbox Game Of The Year For 2025 So Far?
Probably go with Oblivion. I tried every other Game Pass game that has come out this year. They are always ok, but never great enough to blow me away.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 28-29)
Still playing Oblivion on the PS5 pro. Looks and plays better than my Series X version. And yes, some games I love so much, I buy them for both systems.
