As long as Microsoft can keep the Japanese games coming on Xbox then more and more people in Japan will be encouraged to buy the console. They just need more games that appeal to the Japanese tastes.
I mean, I love Xbox but my gripe with it from day one is the lack of Japanese game support and I'm not even Japanese myself. That's one of the reasons why I've always preferred PlayStation more, it has more Japanese games. I've always said time and time again that if Xbox had most the Japanese games that PlayStation does, it would more or less be the ultimate console.
@LX_FENIX I agree. I don't want Microsoft to be doing this just for the 20th anniversary of Xbox. I hope Microsoft are going to continue to do this anyway.
I'm really glad to hear this. One of my biggest issues with Xbox and always has been is the lack of Japanese game support, it's one of the major reasons I've always preferred PlayStation over Xbox. Xbox is slowly improving with the Japanese game support but they still just don't quite get them all, there's still a lot of Japanese games that don't quite make it onto Xbox.
@Rural-Bandit Yeah, I just find it hard to believe that they corrected it on the website and app without realising its not right on the console itself? I've even posted this on the Xbox submit idea thing too.
Something that needs correcting is your Gamerscore on the Xbox console dashboard to be displayed correctly with the commas in the appropriate places.
For example, if your gamerscore is 20,000. That's the correct way for it to be displayed but it's like this instead, 20000. It's all displayed in one long number, it can make it difficult to read the gamerscore.
On the Xbox app though it has the commas in the correct places but on the console dashboard it doesn't.
@Fenbops Well I took a look at game mode on my TV and now there's a whole bunch of advance settings like sharpness etc. I don't know what all these settings should be set to, I'm just going to leave my TV alone.
@Fenbops I did a little research and I was right. Game mode does lower the graphics as the TV will turn off some of the processing that makes the graphics better.
I have a question guys. I've never ever in my life used the gaming mode setting on my TV input with consoles. By right, are you supposed to do it? What does it do?
So disc 1 is Xbox One and Disc 2 is Series X? I didn't think there were any cross games on Xbox that have multiple achievement lists for the same game. Do you have to buy Xbox One version for both discs?
They do need to add more Xbox 360 games, I hope they do in the future. I know that made a lot of them backwards compatible but there's also a lot they didn't do too.
@Originut Thank you. I asked because I read somewhere that it's if you enable it manually that it doesn't affect resolution, the articles was backwards.
Oh, the auto HDR wouldn't lower resolution would it either?
Does anyone here know much about the Series X FPS Boost? There is something that I'd like cleared up about it.
I heard that if it is automatically enabled, it doesn't lower the games resolution. If you have had to enable it yourself manually, then it does lower the games resolution.
Is what I just said correct? It's only resolution lowering if you had to enable it yourself?
@Halucigens Every wired headset I've used is exactly the same. They all every time I speak have a weird noise as I speak. I've recorded my voice and played it back and I can hear it. I've even tried my PlayStation Gold Headset wired with it and still the same. I've even tried my Samsung Galaxy AKG earphones and it's still there.
How can you guys prefer wired headsets with Xbox? Whenever I try to use a wired headset with my Xbox I can hear every time I speak static and a weird sound. Wired is rubbish with Xbox.
@PullnPray Well I know for me personally if Game Pass was on PlayStation, I wouldn't ever touch it no. I don't want my PlayStation turning into an Xbox, it's a PlayStation for a reason.
I agree that Game Pass is great right now for indie games but I don't want Game Pass to be only indies for the most part. I don't want Game Pass being known as Indie Pass so to speak. People want quality over quantity (not that I'm saying indie games can't be good).
Almost certainly this will be GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas. I think they would go with these games because it's the safer bet. I couldn't imagine if it were Max Payne that it would sell as much as what GTA would.
@SplooshDmg I don't really understand what monopoly is? Is that where someone or company tried to own everything? If so, what's the problem with that? I mean, if the person or company can afford it then what does it matter.

I got the Series X version of this with 2 discs, it's not giving me the option to install the Xbox One version?
Re: Interestingly, Tales Of Arise Doesn't Support Smart Delivery On Xbox

They do need to add more Xbox 360 games, I hope they do in the future. I know that made a lot of them backwards compatible but there's also a lot they didn't do too.

Re: Xbox Unveils New Stereo Headset, Launching This September
I'll probably just buy a wireless headset instead.
Re: Xbox Unveils New Stereo Headset, Launching This September
@DaverDaver No, my controller is new. It did the same thing when I tried it on my Xbox One S too.

Re: Phil Spencer Suggests Nintendo & PlayStation 'Don't Want' To Support Xbox Game Pass
@PullnPray They would lose reputation if that happened. I'm sure people who hate Xbox but love PlayStation would be happy about that.

@Dezzy70 I understand what you mean but there competitors, having your competition on your own platform is ridiculous.

And why the hell would Sony and Nintendo want that on there platforms? I think it's obvious and goes without saying....
