What they usually do in every Forza Horizon presentation, the intention there was to give a sample of the game's huge map and a first look at the city of Tokyo.

@Jenkinss There's a mod for that on both console and PC, and it's never bothered me personally.

@GamingGod Much more open and with much more content. You have to like the space theme. And not mind 2-second loading times to go through some doors.

@GamingGod Yes. The game is very good, but be aware that it has a very slow start.

@BethesdaBoyz It's really great. I still discover awesome side quests in it to this day. I hope the next expansion lets you kill the Neon boss and take his place.

It's a great game, but you have to be patient with its slow start and try not to focus 100% on the campaign. The game has too much content and can leave you lost. If you want to become really overpowered in the game, you'll have to play it 11 times. Don't worry, you can cut a good part of the campaign on subsequent playthroughs. The annoying part is having to go after each temple every time you play through it, and there are more than 20.

@JustinSane Technically speaking, it's quite limited.

It looks like the result turned out very well, but we'll have to wait. Currently I'm playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance, the first game, which is quite limited; I hope the second one is much better.

@GamingGod Playstation faz mais receita mas lucra menos que Nintendo e Xbox. isso foi discutindo no tribunal durante a aquisição da abk.

And once again, Phil Space was right when he talked about the industry's problems. Just read the letter that shut down Blue Point. The problem is that many people don't want to listen to a guy who is now the CEO of the biggest game publisher on the market. He's been talking about these problems since 2017, and it's going to get worse.

A resource that had its reason for existing in the past but no longer has any reason to exist today. It's just an unnecessary expense within the company. And here comes the doomsday crowd complaining about the end of a resource they probably never used or used very little. Any rational person understands that there's no longer any reason for such a thing to exist.

@Blurd Based on the launch price of the PS5 Pro, you can get an idea of ​​the price of the next generation. Just add another $100.

I doubt it will be released in 2027 with this memory crisis. It was probably delayed to 2028 unless Microsoft has already reserved memory for the new Xbox consoles. Remember that when changing generations, they also have the costs of replacing the cloud blades. So they need memory for both the consoles and the cloud.

We know that Microsoft made a reservation like that, but it was related to AI.

With this memory crisis caused by artificial intelligence, all next-generation plans are on hold. Maybe by the end of 2028, which, incidentally, was the year Phil spoke in court.

Starfield's spaceship combat is a thousand times better. I just wish I could zoom the camera out more from the ship in third-person mode.

@Questionable_Duck Seriously, you're still crying about this? It's thanks to no longer having that exclusivity that Microsoft can release so many games per year. Go see how the competition is doing. One big game a year from their own studios and some partnerships for smaller games.

@Lup You can change where they appear in the console settings. I set mine to appear at the top right corner. Only in some games does the game force the default to appear at the bottom middle.

Most Souls games are repetitive.

"Disappointed to be losing either of these games on Xbox?"

No.

1. WoW Consoles and new DLC.
2. Diablo 1 Remake.
3. Overwatch 2: new heroes and game modes, and resumption of campaign mode development.
4. Hearthstone updates.

@Fiendish-Beaver This year there's BlizzCon, rumors are talking about a Starcraft FPS.

This year there's Iicon in April, from the 27th to the 30th (formerly E3), with the showcase in June. I think it's unlikely there will be another gaming event before those two.

As long as most of the media and those who vote at the TGA are Sony fans and people who hate Microsoft, what is reflected in Xbox won't happen. Just look at the GOTY nominees at the TGA year by year and you'll easily notice this.

Those who don't want to see it can remain in the dark.

Double Fine and his craziness, but it actually seems fun.

"A" without a doubt, Fable and Forza Horizon 6 are amazing.

Forza Horizon 6. And Japan, damn it. The most requested destination for years.

Fable e Forza Horizon 6.I've finished the year and there are still many awesome Xbox games to be released like Gears of War E-Day and the Halo 1 remake.

Wolfenstein 3 yes

There are a lot of people here who seem to hate on games. They criticize any game. I'd like to know what these people are playing.

It's great that they keep adding more games to the cloud, after all, that's the future. Unfortunately, it's not possible to bring them all because that requires agreements with the companies, but Microsoft's ultimate goal is to bring them all by gradually convincing the companies. Microsoft's "play anywhere" proposition is better for the future of gaming. For those still stuck in the 90s and 2000s model, I'm sorry, you're becoming outdated.

@themightyant I think Fable will be released in September, the same month as the first one. Game companies like to do this kind of thing, releasing new games in the same month as the first one.

They will probably receive a demo. Unfortunately, there probably won't be a public demo.

As for the release month, I believe it will be in May, the release month of the first Forza game (Forza Motorsport).

How can anyone take such nonsense seriously? The Xbox division is worth 3 to 4 times more than Nintendo.

Avowed is really very good, I would only change a few things there. Things that are present in The Other World 2.

Use Microsoft's authenticator on your smartphones and rest assured about your account. Having multiple passwords or creating strong passwords is pointless because these things often leak from within the company. When you install Microsoft's authenticator, you'll see how many attempts are made to hack your accounts every day.

While journalists who support Sony fanboys are the ones who choose the Game of the Year, they don't get to choose. They could release the best game in the universe and it wouldn't win. In the case of Xbox, it's not just that they're Sony fanboys; the journalistic class has harbored a hatred for Microsoft for years. So, everything Microsoft does, they criticize.

They could have found a taller guy to be the chief.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this game, a game made in Unreal Engine 5 by masters of the engine. PIC could use this game to demonstrate that the problems with UE5 are the developers' fault.

And it's about time for a Gears game; the last one was Gears 5 in 2019 with a short DLC in 2020. Next year will mark 7 years without a new game in the franchise.

No gaming company has ever released as much content as Microsoft has this year. And next year, by all indications, will be even more incredible.

Happy holidays!

It's impossible to choose just one.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Avowed, The Outer Worlds 2

A great year for RPG fans.

Rumors point to something related to Starcraft.

The impressive Black Ops 6, released in 2024, is still the 8th best-selling game of the year in November 2025. Black Ops 7, also recently released, is already appearing on the list as the 7th best-selling game of 2025.

I'm eagerly awaiting this show after my more than 500 hours in Starfield, and I still haven't done everything. The game has many awesome side missions besides the incredible faction missions.

The reason for Arkane Austin's closure wasn't Redfall. The reason, as many may not know, was the departure of several developers during Redfall's development. Some left even before the Bethesda acquisition because they didn't want to work on Redfall, which was a Bethesda requirement. The original game was intended to be a "game as a service," but after the Microsoft acquisition, it became a single-player cooperative game. After Redfall's release, the remaining developers lost confidence after receiving so much criticism and even threats. It was then decided to close the studio and send some of the developers to other Bethesda studios.

They're saying it will be an open-world RPG.

@Fiendish-Beaver But I'm talking about personal taste, and I'm talking about yours. DF made a technical decision. You only take into account the art direction of a game, which is purely personal taste. DF does a technical analysis taking into account the graphics of a game, which includes aspects like lighting, shadows, textures, etc. In all of that, the top 3 is far superior to Ghost of Yotei, which, by the way, is quite close to the PS5 version of Ghost of Tsushima graphically.

@Amin1998 Since last year, Microsoft has been distancing itself from the TGA, preferring to hold its own events.

@Fiendish-Beaver You only consider the art direction, but Digital Founder really considers the graphics for this award, such as shadows, lighting, textures, vegetation, object quality, etc. In all of that, Doom easily stands out, as do the other two in the top three. And art direction is purely a matter of personal taste.

@Fiendish-Beaver How long after did you play those Sony games? Because at launch they were full of bugs, and you can easily find information about them online. Some of them still have bugs today.

Congratulations to the Id Tech engine and the incredible team that developed it for winning their second championship. With Indiana Jones last year and now with Doom Dark Age.
