"A bit of frustration for those who already own Starfield on Xbox or PC and are looking to play on the PlayStation 5, the game does not support cross-saves, I had to start with a new game save"
I don't believe her, or any of them. I think they're trying to quietly sunset hardware and maybe do niche hardware in the future that would be too expensive for the current customer base, and that they will focus on publishing, gamepass, and streaming
Of course they're gonna throw most of their resources at AI like everyone else
Xbox as we've known it is dying. Right now, slowly. Has been for a while. Is what it is
It was fun for a little while but there wasn't enough meat on the bone gameplay wise to keep me interested. The treasure sucked. The story and characters felt like they went through some sort of sterilizing machine and came out very bland
Probably 20%. PS5 is my main console. I've barely touched my switch this year. Recently got a PC and I'm in boomer shooter heaven so I'll be playing that mostly for a while
Avowed is fun but the story and characters are pretty meh.. I hoped it was like a super fleshed out proof of concept for a bigger better sequel, but that didn't go super well for Outer Worlds imo. Outer Worlds 2 is basically just more of the same and the writing just hasn't grabbed me

None of these are for me
Re: You're The Xbox Boss And Need To Figure Out Exclusivity, What Decision Are You Making?

Currently in-between jobs and I think it should be free. Just for me though. The rest of you have to pay
Re: Talking Point: If Someone Was Buying Their First Xbox Today, What Games Would You Recommend?
I would recommend getting a PS5 because there will be no exclusives on Xbox

"A bit of frustration for those who already own Starfield on Xbox or PC and are looking to play on the PlayStation 5, the game does not support cross-saves, I had to start with a new game save"
How many people are honestly dealing with that
Re: Talking Point: How Many Consoles Have You Bought At Launch, And Were They Worth It?

I dunno how I'll survive without it
Re: Starfield Gets Major Free Update & New Expansion Next Month, Alongside PS5 Release
@Shinato2024 I played about 50 hours of it. The problem is that most of that content, at least in my opinion, is generic, bland, and boring
My best memory of the game is going to the Sol system and walking around Mars and Titan and whatnot in our solar system
I didn't hate the game. Maybe this new content will bring me back in
Re: 'It Will Lead In Performance' - Xbox's Price Tag For Project Helix Could Be Pretty High

Re: Obsidian Says Two Of Its 2025 Titles Didn't Meet Sales Targets, Vows To Learn For The Future
I thought avowed was pretty mediocre. Very bland. Didn't play much OW2 but what I did play gave me the same feeling
Re: Talking Point: One Year Later, How Do You Feel About Xbox RPG Avowed?
It was fun for a little while but there wasn't enough meat on the bone gameplay wise to keep me interested. The treasure sucked. The story and characters felt like they went through some sort of sterilizing machine and came out very bland
It was overall just very ok

What a twist, who could have seen that coming
Re: Xbox Gives 'Huge Shoutout' To Obsidian For Their Multiple First-Party Releases In 2025
Avowed gave me 20 hours of enjoyment but I fell off it. Got too repetitive and the story/characters kinda sucked
I didn't give outer worlds 2 much of a chance
Re: The First Gaming Showcase Of 2026 Has Been Revealed, And It's As Soon As Next Week
Good name for that
Re: Talking Point: How Much Time Have You Spent Gaming On Xbox Consoles This Year?
Probably 20%. PS5 is my main console. I've barely touched my switch this year. Recently got a PC and I'm in boomer shooter heaven so I'll be playing that mostly for a while
Re: 15 First-Party Games Released On Xbox In 2025, But Which Was Your Favourite?

@XxEvilAshxX guarantee there'll be an outpost capturing montage
Re: Waiting Patiently For Far Cry 7? Ubisoft Has Just Announced A Far Cry TV Show Instead
Far cry has been slipping since 5. 6 flat out sucked imo. I'm not excited for the series anymore, just like AC.

Re: Rumour: Ex-Obsidian Dev Suggests Avowed 2 Is On The Cards, But 'No Plans' For Outer Worlds 3
Avowed is fun but the story and characters are pretty meh.. I hoped it was like a super fleshed out proof of concept for a bigger better sequel, but that didn't go super well for Outer Worlds imo. Outer Worlds 2 is basically just more of the same and the writing just hasn't grabbed me
Re: Poll: What Are Your Initial Impressions Of The Outer Worlds 2 On Xbox Game Pass?
It's kinda boring and lifeless. Maybe I'm just not far along enough or not in the right mood for it idk

That's a bummer
Re: Is Xbox Down? Huge Azure Server Outage Causes Issues Across Microsoft Services
The outer worlds 2 did it
Re: Microsoft CEO Says Xbox 'Wants To Innovate' With Its Next-Gen Console
@TheMule1983 yes directly but also what I said indirectly
So them saying their biggest competition being anything other than other consoles/PC/mobile just sounds dumb
