Mixtape !! ???
This "game" ? Sorry but it's more ... a "movie for people teenagers in the 90ies" than a real game !!
This was NOT a game for me.... a boring walking simulator on automatic .... Music was really good but.. that's it !!

I won't burn my hard money on a "NDE" studio. Some players here think there will be patches ....
I'm sorry but Samson on PC is pretty awful and is not a new GTA like game !!
I HATE this century, where studios launch unfinished games , expecting player to buy those games "day one" and patiently wait for patches to fix the "mess".... Awful !!
Sorry, but I started with cartridges video games. There were bugs , back then , but very few.. because people care about their work !!
It's not NORMAL to buy a game "broken" day one. I'm sorry for this studio, but I think that this "running forward" movement to convert this game from PC to console, EVEN if the PC game is still a mess, is NOT the right answer.

Good for owners of serie S !!
I still have some trouble with some quests (hard Time, on Skellig)..
Strangely, it didn't work , back in the days and .. It still doesn't work for me, with this new "remastered" version.

And what is the point to broadcast cancelled game ?
none !!
You could have this.... but you won't !!

what about the follow-up ?
Can we expect some patches after the "day one" ?
I really hope....
The state of video games at launch is... abyssal , to stay polite !!

I owned elite 1 and 2. Big disappointment.
Now, I only play with Gamesir controllers.
They are well finished and you find those controllers cheaper... Look at G7 Pro.
Mechanical buttons and D pad.
TMR joysticks. 2 back buttons and 2 extra buttons in the front.
sorry Microsoft, I'm not burning 200 euros for your controller...

@Balaam_ you are serious?
You didn't play / finish the game because of combat ?? Wow.. 🤔

oh My... I saw Alien breed collection...
it's rather funny for me , because I was already there, back in the days, with amiga.... So I know those games .. which are really old in 2026. I'm a nostalgic gamer (because some old type of games are not produced anymore in 2026).. but here it's really too old for me...
I still have a fond memory of Sin.. So I'll check this reloaded version.

I guess Ubisoft needs some fresh cash...

Well... When a studio is lowering its target price, it's not always a good sign !
I won't hold my breath on this one.

@Banjo- " Fatal Frame II Crimson Butterfly Remake, which I hope gets a 60fps update on Series X or Helix."
Don't get too excited. I don't think we will get a 60 FPS, especially with this studio !!!

@wildcat_kickz OK I can understand..
But the market of video games is very special. You have a specific slot in time to launch your game. IF.. your game is in an awful state.. well maybe everything is not over yet, but your public image as a studios is completely wrecked !!

And I must also add that each new game will erase the old ones. always.
Trying to"re launch" your game, 3 / 4 months after release (and tons of patches) is a kind of "Impossible mission".
Anyway, good luck to this studio.....

Well.. I saw it on PC...
I know I know: it's 2026 and studios don't care to launch a broken game , day one...
I'll sound harsh: I'm pretty sure it will end like MindsEye. You can save a game IF you have a good story (it's a solo game..). Yes I'm looking at you, cyberpunk. Here, it's too generic!!
Again, I'm surprised why studios never think to postpone a game when it's not ready!!
It's roughly a beat them up, here. You won't sale your game for years, like Fallout 4 or cyberpunk 2077. Too late guys !! And GTA 6 is around the corner... Too late. !!

@agenttrav NOPE, It won't !!

I love rolling thunder or Rave racer.
I'm the target of those old games, but those games are really too expensive (due to licence rights...).
Sadly, there is BIG difference between PS5 and Xbox : we don't get all the good stuff !!
I'm a big fan of Vendetta... Not on Xbox!

What ???!!!
Carrier Command 2 ??? Terranigma ???
Oh my ... is this a "back to the future" effect ???
Hello creative people !!! NO new ideas ? oh my .. we are f.....

Next model: A Big Mac with french fries and a Coke in plastic... 400 euros.
Sometimes, I wonder about Humans...

I started with the good old fat black xbox , back in the days..
I clearly understand that this controller is the "usual" one with a nicer skin.. ok.. But .. Still NO TMR joysticks ?? Really ???!!!

Fresh idea. Fresh presentation.
Not very expensive.... Why not??!

Since when Famitsu is a reliable source ??
Never. I remember an article in the 99ies from French journalists who met some famous studios in Japan. The first question, from studios was always the same: "How much do you want for this article?"... That's why I never trusted Famitsu. This media is still here, after decades of work... You need to be "flexible", I guess...

Well.. you have two "schools" here :
1 you are an old schmuck who played Halo since the beginning of time
2 you are a gen Z....
Sorry but this "remaster" is just a REGRESSION of Halo CE.
it's now 25 years old , you don't have MP, you have to suffer some "anti male" / woke cut scenes and you pay ... 70 euros !!
Marvelous ?!
Oh the ONLY difference in gameplay is the possibility to RUN.
How many months did they spend when they outsource this game to other studios ? 9 ? 12 months ?
I know that gen Z is .. let's say "precious" now. OK, youngsters are the future , bla bla bla.
But for me , there is only ONE good way with Halo : BUY the Master Chief collection.
And Microsoft : try to develop a NEW episode. Just saying...

Well... Thanks, but NO thanks.
I fired up, again the Master Chief collection on my série X and... I won't buy Halo CE remastered. I don't want to face this woke/ anti male new story.
Oh and ... What about a REAL new episode of Halo ? I'm fed up with "remastered versions".
Be honest : you have NO Idea for a new episode....

You want me to me pay extra money in order to DEBUG the game ? Do you really think I'm that stupid ?
But yeah : people who get the premium edition, I salute you !
And please play a lot before the 28th... that way we will get a nice and juicy "day one" patch !!!

Oh .. Joy ... We will get a Woke Fallout !
Groovy !

@acmiguens me too ! 👍

Too much deja vu here.
Same old, same old...

Bloody Hell... Fix Oblivion remastered fir God sake!!!

Well very specialized controller and it's rather cheap. Try any serious controller on PC and you'll know how it can be very expensive ...
Still it's very unique ... Like the controller of
Steel Battalion, back in the days.

@Savex +1! They never fixed those games for consoles versions... Shabby, if you ask me.

@InterceptorAlpha"Then 60 on Helix, PS6"
You mean when Rockstar will re launch a GTA 6 remastered, in few years ?? Good luck with that....
This generation of consoles was really awful regarding optimization. And the hegemony of Unreal engine 6 , on the next gen of consoles will be even worse ....
Future is not what it used to be...

@Smify Sadly I'm looking for a "bright future" regarding players who like physical games.
Digital games are getting stronger and stronger, each year.
The future new GTA 6 will have key code inside the boxes... yuk !!

It's rather expensive for skeleton machine.
I have a serie X already and... This console is now "hasbeen". It's still ok for indie games...
Gta6 in 4k 60 Hz ? Yeah, it's good to dream about it... But it's a dream.
Few games were really optimised for this machine and it's sad.
I won't hold my breath for Oblivion remastered, for example... And It's a Microsoft studio...
And don't see the point to collect many different Xbox serie X.. one is enough!

Euro Truck Simulator 2 ????
One of my friend is a truck driver, so maybe is the target of this game.... But frankly... not my cup of tea !!

None of them...
I waste my free time differently now..

@Master_Cthulhu70 Fair enough !

I think I already got all the "good stuff" from Xbox store (15 years with Xbox...).
Hell : there are not enough shmups on Xbox..
Sadly, the PS5 is perfect for shmups....

well... I have both PS5 PRO and serie X...
I won't waste my time on the xbox serie X , regarding this game....
And even with a P5O PRO, I 'm not sure we will get 60 Hz.

Strange how people think that, when it's "artistic" business, there is No economical constraints... I worked in a company which went bankrupt. Of course I loose my job... Then took another one in another company. Real gifted artists will find another job. I really think that this entertainment business hired too much people, after the golden year of COVID. Then the party was over... Look at Sony : they also closed studios. It's a very standard business : no money = no more job in the long term.
As an old schmuck, I can see that there is too much new games , each month.
Worth : too much games are launched unfinished...
The real question is how many games are profitable??

I really like Microsoft , but here.... NO !
if at least we get 2 To or 4 To for the internal SSD... but NOOOOO.
Too expensive for a customs console....
I still have my green xbox from early 21th century.
I'm ok, thanks !!!

Yeah it sounds interesting..
I've checked Gothic 1 remake = it"s a purge !
30 fps in 2026. Thank you , Unreal Engine 5 !
Maybe Unreal engine 5 doesn't fit on current gen, or.... this graphical engine is NOT optimized at all...
I'll look at those projects, but if it's "made with Unreal Engine 5"
I 'll wait a long time before buying... I'm not sure that the next helix console will change something in the end...

wow.... !! it's pretty cool to test the game before buying !!
Nice !

Serie S is now the weak link for Microsoft... But I know few friends bought it, so...

@RegnumSolipsi I agree. I still have memories of Psi-Ops.
