@JONOFTHEJONS If they switch from Nvidia to AMD it could, the chip is an apu , with CPU and GPU in the same silicon, but I would think Nvidia would make Nintendo an offer they cannot refuse if they were going to switch from supplier.
I found out if that if it's your first game of the day you played, and do the settings changes that were proposed on this site, it doesn't play that bad, actually had a good time playing Redfall for like 2 hours, I then switched over to Ghostwire Tokyo on the X, and boy oh boy , then you really get aware of the missing 60 fps, Ghostwire feels so smooth in comparison , not funny, but like i said, do Redfall as your first of the day....
Well, plan B would be , buy Square, Sega, Embracer, Capcom, Konami for starters and still have lots of money left.... Lol 😆, ahw idk, just go back to the drawing board and see what else is possible.. they want mobile so probably Take2 for the Zynga part
Like all of the comments above I own most of it already, it's a nice list , but besides the board games and trials series i own 90% of it, so not worth that money to me
Damn MSFT, pull out your wallet, fly a bunch of people from the likes of the Coaltion to Austin (or even hire folks from Epic, or wherever), to help them to 60fps before the may 2nd deadline. Still got 19 days to go, on short notice you should be able get some Unreal 4 wizards to help Arkane with the performance mode.
Been to E3 with a press card in the 2000's was awesome surely miss those days, well we still got Gamescom which is awesome too and in my neck of the woods, you all have to come to Europe then 😊
Btw its also for the retail version right , i own Far Cry 5 , completed it for like 70% loved it but shifted to other games, still on my backlog to finish
Man, was just pondering about this news, this is huge, why don't i see this news everywhere else? This has a great impact... probably not ABK related so not news worthy? That almost doubles the countries PC gamepass was in first.... and probably a sign Microsoft is seeing that the ABK deal will close soon.
Happy for the devs with the score, it's definitely not for everyone, but because I enjoyed the demo so much I'm sure I'll enjoy the full game... and will buy it after it leaves gamepass.
Loved the demo , played fantastic, that was the first some time ago, second demo i was told is basically the same, finished first completely, gonna go in with fresh eyes shortly, they polished the game immensely what i saw in trailer but if gameplay hasn't changed, this is Elden Ring meets Nioh meets Dark Souls light, amazing fun i had with the demo
@SAH77777 Yeah... we were late to the party with Hogwarts Legacy, because of my daughters birthday this week, as it was a present we bought it physical , nicer to give, there's 40 gigs on the disc that gets transferred first, and then you have to download the whole game again and then some (about 80 gigs). So took some time for her to be able to play ,got gig internet speed so not a major problem, but for people that have not that great speeds, (buying physical is pure for the box these days , and able to sell i suppose)
@NintendoByNature Played it for nearly 2 hours, it's drop dead gorgeous, they really push the Unreal 4 engine with this game, Coalition type quality, runs smooth on my series X, probably because of vrr got a QHD 165 fps screen hooked up. Game is not that easy, play it on normal, so far has been fun...
@NintendoByNature me too, haven't seen a glimpse of the game, pre downloaded it, wanted to start it up for the first time, and said 70 gigs update, now I have great speed over here, but I was once again, hey time for bed, will try tonight when i get some time.
Wait , with up to 5 friends/family members? that's 6 people, i thought it was 4 , if true it's even more insane value than it already is. But nonetheless awesome more countries are getting it, and for Sweden getting a price hike that softens the blow i guess, great news
Actually quite a few , like the service, it's like an extended trial, but often when i like a free play game i don't rush and buy the game direct after the weekend, i wait for a really good store deal, and then purchase it , the cloudsave remains so progress is always stored
@EliJapan yeah loving it too, sucks you didn't get the just for you deal, i fortunately got it ,10 bucks for Far Cry 6 Gold was a really good deal. But probably going to gamepass pretty soon
Alien Isolation is great, but yeah cheap to buy, Far: Changing Tides is an awesome little game , so if you didn't try it , awesome experience imho. Octopath Traveller while being great, yeah second one seems to skip Xbox entirely, Square Enix is such a strange company.
I bought more games since having gamepass than before I had gamepass, the money seemingly saved I buy stuff that's not (well not in the near future) on gamepass, and if i love a game that much on gamepass i'll buy it when it leaves....
Saw the extended trailer this afternoon, doesn't look half bad, but does not look like an EA game at all, but then i saw KT that's like Koei Tecmo right? , Well installing demo
@BBB Me too, almost bought Mount and Blade 2 day it launched, but was caught up in so many games at the time, still am, but now I can try it in gamepass and see if it's for me, February looking amazing indeed...
Got 6 offers, Ghost Recon Wildlands gold/ultimate (4.20 euro / 10 euro) Ghost Recon Breakpoint gold/ultimate (10 euro/13.20 euro) and Far Cry 6 gold/ultimate (10 euro / 25.20 euro)
I own basic versions of Wildlands and Breakpoint,not gonna pick up those, i bought Far Cry 6 gold, the one far cry i don't own, 10 euro not a bad deal, but yeah propably the whole kit and caboodle soon in GPU i guess.
@Kaloudz yeah what @Gunonaboat says, it's quite unique, I was forgetting to say that it's turn based though, that isn't for everybody, but it's a nice little game, and i'm excited for the second one
Awesome 👍 , first game was a lot of fun , @Kaloudz a fun tactical game where you play on board a giant tank , 2d , you encounter all kinds of enemies, bit of an rpg too...
Love the new format, and thought it was an excellent show, the shadowdropping of Jet Set Ra... i mean Hi-Fi Rush was very cool, very good game btw, played it for an hour before bed, loving it so far. Forza... what to say, it looks gorgeous although no release date, Minecraft Legends is getting my interest too, Redfall I was already hyped for...... I was pleasantly surprised, having little expectations.
