@Sheppard I have played some of the first Spider-Man game on PS4 (I have the PC version as well) and I think the game is awesome so far. Huge difference.

@nomither6 I also had and sold all of the other Spider-Man games that are available on all of the Xbox consoles. I was that pissed.

Seeing how all of these companies love money more than anything else, you would think they would all work together to resolve any licensing issues and bring all games to any and every platform possible.

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is an absolutely horrible game and should be ashamed of itself for existing. I couldn’t even finish it. I do not understand how ANYONE can even remotely enjoy that pile of garbage. I was recording my gameplay for my YouTube channel and deleted the videos as well. I had 2 mint CIB copies of that game. I destroyed both of them. I just couldn’t in good conscience bring myself to even sell them to somebody. I could not potentially allow someone to experience such misery. I know it’s a rare game and I know what it’s worth, but it was worth losing the money to know that someone else will not suffer. I paid full price for both of them as well.

@Balaam_ Achievements aren’t that important.

@Leopold Haven’t you heard? AI is god. All hail AI. Resistance is futile.

Everyone dies at the end and ends the series.

I’ll either get it on PC or Series X, whichever one runs it better.

Is the game that bad?

Every game will be on every platform soon enough. Companies like money.

I threw up in my mouth and swallowed it on purpose because it was more enjoyable than playing this game or any of these trash live service games.

@Krzzystuff Actually….. It makes it easier to beat. Hahahaha!!!

@Markatron84 I have a long road ahead of me.

I am determined, that in 2026, I will stop inserting my controllers inside myself.

How the hell did Black Ops 7 get to the top of anything. Oh I get it, I woke up in a parallel reality again. So is Black Ops 7 good in this one, because the last one I was in it was the worse one yet worth all kinds of nonsense. Barely recognizable.

@InfamousOrange Because….digital.

@HonestHick it will probably look as real as a movie and it’ll still be at 30 FPS. Haha

My grandma died, my wife is having sextuplets and I won the lottery. Now this. What a roller coaster week.

@HonestHick RDR 3 release date is 2032.

Exactly. They are never fun for anyone, people don't like doing things that aren't fun, so we won't be doing this. They said it themselves.

I wish they had a tier that only included online multiplayer for the people who have thousands of games already and don't need anything to do with Game pass or cloud streaming. Oh wait, they did and they took it away.

Now I'm starting to feel like I overpaid for Donkey Kong Country, $69.99 in 1994.

@ZuneTattooGuy Gaming since 1982 here. Odyssey 2 and Atari 2600. I did reread your post and saw that you said recently. They need to bring back multi-disc games as standard.

@TapeLoader Incorrect, most games are in a completely broken and unfinished state on the disc nowadays. They require a download to function properly. Or the discs only include a very small portion of the game and the rest needs to be downloaded. I was also in my head thinking about Nintendo switch 2 key cards, and in that case makes my statement completely true.

@Nexozi Awesome. I wouldn't think they would release a game like that in a broken state.

What I think is funny is nowadays when people buy a game on day one they get an unfinished and/or broken product and pay full price for it. When you wait a while, and sometimes not very long if the game was extremely broken during its release, you not only get a discount, you also get in most cases a finished, polished game. What I'm wondering is why doesn't everyone just wait? This has been going on for a very long time and with a lot of games. Common sense would tell you to just wait for every single game to be reduced in price and patched.

@Nexozi There might be something wrong with your Series X, maybe even the HDMI cable or the TV. Maybe see if other people are having the same experience with those games.

@ZuneTattooGuy You must have not been gaming very long. Right off the top of my head thinking back as far as I can in a moment, the first games that I thought of that were multi-disk were Fear Effect and the Final Fantasy games on PlayStation 1. Those were four discs each I believe. There have been so many multi-disc releases it's not even funny. That's what I don't understand about new games. Why aren't they just including multiple discs like they used to? I think I even had some Sega CD and 3DO games that were multi disc.

@Balaam_ different people have different preferences for different experiences. That's why they make all of these different things. Also, you can connect your PC to your "77" 4K 144 HZ OLED".

@Nexozi I think the series X is going to last a lot longer than people realize.

@Ricky-Spanish I don't even need a controller. I just look at the screen like if it doesn't do as I say, there's going to be trouble.

You know the terms of service everyone agrees to before they use anything? You know how they're always sending us updates to these terms of service? They say if we don't agree then we can stop using whatever the terms of service are for. Well, that's not really how it works. If you buy something and it comes with a terms of service, that terms of service can only be changed if both parties agree. They present it to you as if you're not allowed to use the thing you paid for anymore if you disagree with the new terms of service that they have altered. The truth is they are not allowed to change the terms of service unless both parties agree. Most people don't know that a contract between entities or people can only be changed if both parties agree. When they change the terms of service they are voiding the contract if you don't agree. That doesn't mean that you can no longer use the thing that you paid for, it means they are in violation of the contract and you can sue them. Any changes to a contract after the fact are invalid if both parties don't agree. With that being said, if we participate in the manner in which they do, and this is law, if they are able to tell us when a contract changes, we can do the same thing. We can send them a notice of us changing the terms of service and if they don't agree, they can give us our money back. People don't realize they have that power. I hope one day everyone does realize they have that power and these terms of service will be written to benefit everyone and to protect everyone. All you have to do is send them a terms of service that has been updated to change something you want changed, send it notarized, certified with return receipt and state they have 30 days to respond. If they do not respond, you have now updated your contract with that company. If they want to play that game with us, we have the legal right to do the exact same thing. I have already done this multiple times and when you do send something like that, they just throw it in the trash most of the time. I have won multiple times in court doing the exact thing with other companies. So everyone, I suggest everybody start updating the terms of service to something that benefits you.

@CoolDadTx and all this time I thought they made money from the products that they sell us.

@chesheer I like to eat video games as well.

@Ricky-Spanish Yes.

How hard is it to put it back the way it was before the ads and allow us to resize and arrange the tiles the way we like, like how it is on Windows? We know it's possible because of Windows. We know it's possible because the Xbox runs on Windows. I paid good money for the Xboxes that I have. I did not purchase them under a subsidy. I should not have to look at ads. I will not purchase another Microsoft anything that contains ads. Companies need to realize we are either the customer or the product, not both. That's just disrespectful. They also need to make it clear which one we are. If we are the product everything to do with the service should be provided for free. If we are the customer everything should be provided to us at a price. Nowhere in any of the terms of service or purchase agreement or receipt or anything does it say that I am purchasing a product partially subsidized by ads. Any company that behaves this way will not receive my business. If all of us who disagree with the way they do business, made the same decision, they would not be conducting business in that manner. I think companies and customers alike forget that the customers are in control. It's about time we exercise that control. We are willing to pay good money for good products with no bull$hit. If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Buy what you can afford when you can afford it. It's really simple. On a similar note the McDonald's app today asked me if I wanted to finance my order. If I need to finance a McDonald's order I do not need to be ordering McDonald's. That's how I feel about Xbox lately and anything really.

@Ricky-Spanish That's why you are part of the problem. Even if you love the ads you should never speak such things for the sake of the rest of us.

@Fishysensei Especially since we all purchased the hardware absent a subsidy.

@OldGamer999 There is this long lost concept. It is incredibly simple. It is a solution that works every time. Ok, here goes..... If you don't like a product or service..... Don't purchase or use it. Find something that fits your needs, that you enjoy. I really hope this helps. Choice, who would've thunk it?

I will be playing Hairy Ballz: Scratch and Sniff all weekend long. So much scratching, so much sniffing. Such a wonderful experience, I just can't get enough.

Censorship has no place in art.

If I don't own anything that I buy from them, whether it be a physical item or a license to something, I will continue NOT owing anything from them by not buying anything from them. Most of us understand that we are buying a license to a piece of software, but it is implied that the license does not expire unless otherwise stated and we have the expectation that it will be accessable indefinitely. Maybe the money I paid them to BUY the license should be revoked when the license gets revoked.

@RentedPanda haha, I didn't catch that. I fixed it though.
