The only thing that comes to my mind now is « blablabla… ». They won’t change the way they manage Xbox, prices, exclusives or advertises so it’s gonna be the same story as it is right now.

Good news! But they should really just release a dedicated peripheral. There were tons of accessories for dancing, music, fishing and shooting back in the late 90s and 2000s so why isn’t that a thing anymore? I used to think motion gaming would get amazing with time but turns out online shooters won the gaming war.

Modern gameplay like adaptative trigger and gyro aiming 🌝🌝🌝🌝

@DennisReynolds Cute troll deflection but that’s not an argument, that’s just whataboutism. Try again when you actually have a point 🤭

@DennisReynolds this is not even close to any kind of exclusive deal… lol… Nice try though 🌝

@DennisReynolds except that we all know that MS won’t do it and that shady "exclusive stuff" are now considered "outdated" by MS itself

My goty isn’t on Xbox though :/ It’s Donkey Kong. As for Expedition 33, it’s clearly not in my list… ew… But I know it’s going to win 😒

Psychonauts 2 by ultra mega far! One of the best game I played in the last decade.

« only 4 games »

Consider this the day I stopped listening to MS. I still love Xbox, just not what it’s become.

@BacklogBrad exactly this and us poor Xbox players will get the barely enhanced version for « free » if we bought the first collection so it’ll go down easier… kinda like with another totally minor franchise tied to Xbox called… oh I don’t know, Gears of War?

BTW, it’s seems that we are now in a gen where remasters of remakes is becoming acceptable… wtf. (GOW, Dragon Quest VII…)

I love Virtua Fighter so much. I’m gonna buy it on Switch 2 though… because playing online on Xbox is getting ridiculously expensive.

Well unless it runs at a sh**y res on Switch 2.

LOL… I’m literally speechless. Microsoft’s swimming in cash and these « chair guys » are just greedily topping off their yachts while we pay to feed their exuberant lifestyle.

I’m done and can’t wait for this Gen to end already so I can finally ghost Xbox for good.
Their first party games are not even that great…

lol… the guy is disconnected from reality or what? Even as a teenager I didn’t have that much time to play so many games so that excuse is just absurd...

I prefer to buy discounted games just like we all do on Steam.

Nobody cares about what’s leaving gp anymore

Ubisoft will keep on being Ubisoft… the same tired franchises on repeat, funneling talented developers into making safe, board-approved, mainstream snoozefests with absolutely zero risk. And when they do finally take a (tiny) step toward creativity, like Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown or Fenyx Rising, they go ahead and dismantle the very studios behind them.

It’s frustrating, it’s sad and it’s giving « creativity is a liability » energy. Ubi has the talent but they keep choosing corporate comfort over bold vision.

Nothing’s gonna change.

Essential is rising the price of Core in France! What about the people who ONLY wanna play online without giving a single damn about Game Pass? 8,99€ a month just to play Street Fighter 6 online or even Final Fantasy XIV (which ALREADY has its own sub)? That’s insane.

Microsoft, you’ve officially lost the plot. After years of loyalty, I’m 100% out for next gen.

Nadella is serving full Don Mattrick realness.

PureXbox.com, you can close the website. Xbox is killing itself.

Well… Xbox is out of touch with reality, as always.

For players who just wanna hop online and couldn’t care less about Game Pass, even the basic plan is ridiculously overpriced.

Honestly, I’m slowly dumping Xbox and putting my energy into the Switch 2… because guess what? I can play online there for just 20 bucks a year.

This is so sad

I was happy at first but it seems like you all said that it’s another uncomplete game on a disc… wtf… I’m not gonna buy this.

Lost Odyssey doesn’t really need a remake though… just need a 4k 60fps patch.

Anyway I don’t’ except anything amazing for Xbox players… at best it would probably get a port to PS/Switch… and suddenly the game would be considered an amazing JRPG 🤡

Nope. I have a Switch 2 for portability, I collect physical games and I’m not quite sure to like where Xbox is heading tbh.

Omg… I rolled my eyes so hard they wrapped around my optic nerve three times… stuck staring at my brain right now.

Xbox… seriously…

I travel between France and Belgium and in the latter a major video game seller called FNAC Belgium completely gutted the Xbox section years ago because apparently Xbox is the village joke over there. Say you play Xbox and watch the side eye roll in like you just confessed a crime. Meanwhile in France FNAC still flexes those Xbox branded shelves and games are easy to snag elsewhere.

Elsewhere in Belgium if a store even bothers to stock Xbox games it’s like five overpriced titles max…

Thank u Nadella for channeling your inner Don Mattricks and making sure Xbox remains the punchline of European gaming thx to your disdain for Xbox hardware… ❤️

If the latency remains the same, it’s not yet ready for me, sadly :/

I don’t know how they went from « nobody wants to buy an Xbox anymore » to « we REALLY don’t want YOU buying an Xbox! »

All thanks to the orange disaster himself.

Imagine Sony dropping a PS5 S… it would sell like absolute crazy.

The Xbox Series S is honestly such an outstanding little machine and you can find it easily for dirt cheap (brand new around €200, sometimes even €150 used where I live).

I don’t own one myself but a few of my friends do and they are seriously so happy with it.

I’m always surprised at the quality of the games on this console, it really does have its audience. And let’s be real: resolution and framerate aren’t that important for a huge part of players… just look at the Switch slaying sales numbers…

The mere existence of these options usually kills my enjoyment of a game… it was exactly the same with the ports of FF VII, VIII and IX where you could just activate everything with a single button.

I still have to play my PS4 copy anyway which doesn’t have this feature. It’s totally psychological but for some reason, it just grates on me

@TrollOfWar Mmm I wonder how much Sony really had/has to pay because locking a game away from Xbox must cost way less than locking it away from PS since there are simply fewer sales to compensate for.

It’s too late anyway… Sony already got what they wanted: damaging the Xbox brand for good and made people believe the franchise was a first party exclusive. They don’t even need to lock anything down anymore.

At least, Sony will probably stop locking stuff now that everyone is convinced that Xbox is a brand to avoid 🌝

Thanks to them Phantasy Star Online ep1 & 2 is back to Xbox and playable in 720p widescreen with an obscure patch ❤️

@dskatter just read the reviews on the Xbox store… half of them are saying the game is trash because of « woke »… This has been the gaming internet’s drama for weeks. Even my mom knows about the « woke dragon age scandal »…

@Valhura I’m honestly impressed we made it through seven whole comments before someone dropped the classic « wok is 💩 » take on this game.

At least it seems that Pure Xbox has a rather nice community 😏

It’s a damn good game and let’s be real: we all know why it got mixed reviews from the public... A bunch of people (mostly close-minded straight cis men, you know the type) barely even played it but still wanted to hate it because some youtube haters screamed « omg its wok guyz were gona loose our straight card if we dont publicly spit on it!!!! ». Like… please. The world isn’t just black and white.

People BUYING games on Xbox? NO WAY!

I thought nobody had an Xbox!

gasp in shook

@Kaloudz We already went over this briefly and I don’t feel like debating this game any further tbh

Most people consider the game a masterpiece while a minority is still wondering how it could be so adored. In the end, it all comes down to personal feelings, I guess.

Correction: "ending the Xbox consoles, one grub at a time".

I’ll start seeing these kinds of ports in a positive light for Xbox the day we get… let’s say… The Nathan Drake Collection or literally any other old remastered iconic PlayStation first party franchise landing on Xbox. Until then? Cute try but this suxx imo.

Helldivers 2 is just a breadcrumb compared to the full course meal Microsoft is serving up on PS.

I honestly wasn’t expecting much after the painfully bland Team Sonic Racing but this one actually delivered! It feels way closer to the greatness of Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Tbh I had more fun playing the beta of this than playing Mario Kart World online… which is easily one of the most forgettable entries in the franchise.

Already ordered a Switch copy and I’ll be upgrading the moment that Switch 2 patch drops.

@Kaloudz I couldn’t disagree more, but we’ve already hashed this out. There’s no right or wrong here. I just can’t stand this western wannabe j-rpg.

The original crawled at 30fps on Xbox and for some reason never felt ok at that frame rate. So yeah, it was crying for at least a little upgrade.

I own the physical copy so I guess I’m just screwed. Oh well… it’ll be sitting in the bargain bin for 5 bucks in a year or two anyway…

Omg… even more bland boringness in the universe of this « oui-oui baguette » Final Fantasy western parody.

Well… a lot of people seem happy with this overhyped title so I guess I’m happy for them…

I used to be a big defender of the Xbox dashboard but I really got tired of the changes, especially when they decided to put one to TWO rows of game ads before I can reach my pins. This is total BS.

This is just one of many reasons why I am focusing more on the Switch 2 now.

(Yeah people can get really mad at these stupid ads)

@Millionski not automatically. Tons of gamers simply don’t like the other brand. Even if they would be the perfect public for let’s say Forza or Halo, they will always refuse to buy an Xbox and will only play these games once they land on their system.

« Good idea! It’s a first step to make it easier for Xbox players to swallow the announcement of Halo coming to PlayStation next year »

I don’t expect any AAA single player title from Sony’s first party catalogue to come to Xbox.

Taiko no Tatsujin is such an incredible franchise

Valhalla was the most boring AC I ever played. I’m glad they came back to the old formula for an episode.

Yeah yeah blabla mikrosoft is poop sony has never been a toxic videogame company n they are poor with sony picture sony muzic they donot have inkomes they fight for us

Embarrassing

@DaveTheRave Ugh, not me having to explain my « joke » about PS being MS’s main system now 😩😩

Oh sure, let’s all praise Sony for this one and only kind gesture after decades of locking out third parties, trying to bury the Xbox brand and crushing SEGA. Iconic ❤️

@DaveTheRave I dislike Gran Turismo so much that I could go as far as saying that I hate it. Without a doubt, the most boring racing franchise I’ve ever played in my life. And I bet that most of these « YouTubers » are basic men? Ew…

It’s okay, Microsoft has Gran Turismo on its main system anyway… … … 🌝
