Makes sense it’s not the Xbox headset, those would all be in scalpers hands now being limited edition right? Ended up getting one shipped over from family in the US and honestly love it. Don’t have 2 tvs in the lounge so use to laptop a fair bit but use it for about 80% of my gaming now just for the big screen
Got my code, bought the disk originally. No idea if I installed a free digital version from somewhere but other comments sound like disk owners are getting it to!
Would love to see a second! Only played the first because it was Gears and hadn’t really played turn based before but really enjoyed it. Plus there soo much Gears lore I’m sure they’d be able to make the story interesting
Thanks for all the hard work to all the purexbox staff! Other than my morning coffee and Jewel points you’re always the next check-in. Love your work!!!
Can we just get: Hallaffect, Bluetooth, Xbox D-pad, 4x mappable back triggers, all in one! (Trigger stops optional) also, thrustmaster sounds like an adult toy…
Can’t wait for this! Picked up a cheap copy of the physical expansion and fell back in love with the game after a few months off when the DCL trailer came out
Only if I’m super excited about a game and there’s a special edition/ steelbook. Pre-ordered Space Marine 2 recently, but before that don’t think I’d done so since Gears. Most games I’m happy to wait for the price to go down
Most anticipated game of the year for me to! Super-humans fighting monsters, what’s not to love!!! Hoping it will be a good fill in between Gears games
Starts at 3am Monday morning in Australia, but it’s a public holiday! So will be watching live for sure!!! Was lucky enough to see last years at a Microsoft watch party which was epic, no such luck this year so will be watching solo
Gears. Old house mate got me into it, loved it, got my wife into playing co-op and it was literally the only games I played for years. Play everything these days but without gears I probably wouldn’t even be a gamer
Will still be exploring Starfield, and keen to finish Jusant. Hopefully get into Cocoon finally, plus a few I picked up in the sales: Alen Wake 1, Bulletstorm: full clip (looking forward to this one!), After Us, & Blacktail. Happy X-boxmas all!!!
Waited until the next gen version was ready and honestly loved the world they built. Looking forward to having another reason to jump back in! Shame there will be only one but better than none
