Re: Talking Point: You're The New Head Of Xbox, What Do You Do Now?

  • release one console instead of two
  • free online gaming
  • use ai heavily to release 1st party games quicker ( i don't care if people hate ai, they are clueless )
  • one game pass tier and it will have Spotify model where devs will earn based on the number of minutes their games are played, no fixed payment. But pay them as much as possible per minute.
  • each and every 1st party game gets realesed on every other platform ( pc too ) after 1 year time exclusivity for the xbox console.
  • next console should have no disc drive and no more physical games.
  • quick resume is great, keep it.

Re: Phil Spencer Explains Why 'This Is An Xbox' Will Be Beneficial To Console Owners

It's the other way around :

What people don't understand from the beginning is XBOX console is a pc. They both use windows and dominated by Microsoft.
You go with an xbox or a pc, both have their advantages.

So why would MS releasing all their games on Pc affect my purchase decision between Pc and Xbox? I already have chosen Xbox console since it is plug and play, easier, more comfortable and I use Linux Mint instead of Windows.

And why would you go for PS/Nintendo? Because you hate game pass ( best game service by far ) and you adore their exclusives.

Re: Xbox Is Making It Much Easier To Upload Your Game Captures To OneDrive

Vidorra

I have an interesting problem :

I use an IFTTT applet to automatically transfer videos uploaded to my onedrive account to my telegram account so that i can share it easily in the group with my friends.

But IFTTT has a limit of 20mb per file for that action, and 720p 15 second clips are usually above 20mb so i have to trim them.

I need 10 or 12 seconds capture option to solve my problem, why not?

Re: Review: Matchpoint Tennis Championships - The Sport's First Xbox Game Pass Title

Vidorra

I played this for a few hours yesterday. I did training and some online matches. I like tennis and such a game was surely needed. Even though I had fun I need to point out that this game feels like a beta version. Here are some cons that I remember:

Cons (on series s ):

  • screen tearing and graphical glitches
  • crowd is generic and lifeless
  • no doubles play
  • Players' walk is not natural
  • when I won the point to make the games 6-5 the commentator thought that it was the matchpoint
  • character creation is severely weak, there was no short hair option for example
  • volleys are weird
  • there is no online leaderboard, ok I have an Elo Point after playing 3 ranked matches but where does that puts me? Am I ahead of many players or not?
  • We don't see the Elo of our online opponent. It would be good.
  • The graphics are not looking like 2022, more like 2012
  • Player animations and sounds are not good enough, Top Spin 4 was better now that I'm watching a gameplay video of that game
  • The moment the match ends I would expect to see more excitement and at least a handshake with the opponent to make it more realistic

Conclusion: I am happy to play this on gamepass. Is it worth $45? No! We need an AAA tennis game that deserves that price tag. I hope a big studio starts developing a great tennis game. Microsoft Tennis maybe
