To bring all their games to PlayStation 5 and 6 and the Nintendo Switch 2 🤣

Honestly Forza Horizon 6 might be one of the last games I’ll play on my XSX if everything comes to PlayStation and Nintendo. Outside of BC games ofcourse.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, first time I’m using my Ps5 since I beat Uncharted Lost Legacy January 2026.

Besides that I just beat Azure Striker Gunvolt Enhanced Edition and Yakuza Dark Ties on my Switch 2.

I might also start Resident Evil Village or Street Fighter 6’s World Tour Mode.

@fatpunkslim @DennisReynolds Schreier didn’t say GTA 6 would get a delay to 2027, Schreier said GTA is on track for its November 2026 release date but could see a final delay potentially depending on how things go. Other websites changed that quote into saying it’s gonna get delayed again. Schreier has called out websites for pulling what he said out of context.

.+ schreier said it off the record in a podcast, not in an article.

I beat Yakuza Kiwami 3 literally while Resident Evil Requiem was installing yesterday so I’ll be playing that one.
Also I’ll be running through another Capcom Belt Action Collection Beat Em Up with an American friend of mine like we’ve done every Saturday for the past 3 weeks now.

@RiverGenie Sony does not own spider-man
Sony owns the movie rights and that’s it.
Disney owns the TV, videogame, merchandise, comics, toys and marketing rights.
Disney licenses spider-man to Sony for the video games just like they do wolverine to sony and indiana jones and blade to Microsoft.

When this licensing deal expires Disney has the right to port the 3 spider-man games to switch and xbox.

TBF from what I understand Kena 2 is being published by Sony.

Like @Questionable_Duck said. He’s referring to ps4/5 and not Xbox. Edmund isn’t a fan of game consoles at all especially Xbox. IIRC he’s been burned on Xbox through his experience with XBLA on 360.

Edit: also “so they surely won't want to leave money on the table by avoiding Xbox.”
I don’t think Edmund cares about money at all. He made Isaac Repentance because he got too much money from a kickstarter campaign.

@LordDieALot they only play if they’re downloaded. Not if they’re streamed.

I just had to delete 160gb of data to install Quantum Break (85gb) and its tv show episodes (75gb) 😭
The episodes aren’t streamable anymore sadly.

I pre ordered the gold edition for NS2 (well I pre ordered the €90 RE9 CE that comes with 7 gold and 8 gold) so I’ll be playing there but that’s a cool addition.

Happy new year for everyone at NintendoLife, PureXbox and PushSquare!

May GTA VI finally release! May Pragmata be an amazing new IP! May Ace Attorney 7 finally be announced! May we get some amazing first party games from Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony! And most of all, may we see little to none layoffs and may the AI bubble burst!

The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask on Nintendo Switch Online. Also finally started Once Upon a Katamari on Switch 2

Still slowly working through Powerwash Simulator too. And been thinking about starting Resident Evil Revelations and Star Wars Outlaws.

Alan Wake Remastered, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3+4 and Oblivion Remastered.
I was very occupied with my Switch 2 this year.

10 OG Xbox games, 3 Xbox One games, 2 XSX games and 1 Xbox 360 game.

Only 1 was digital.

Edit: for Nintendo it was a good 150+ games, 85 of which physical and for Sony it was exactly 80 games, 0 of which digital.

@Titntin realistically games made for ps4 and Xone with no Ps5 and XSX version that get ported to NS2 should run and play best on NS2 since it’s the most powerful of the 3 (it’s a ps4 pro/Xone X with DLSS support) so Tomb Raider 2013 should’ve been a slamdunk on NS2.
The NS2 version being significantly worse than ps3 and 360 is just insanely lazy.

@Kezelpaso well then wikipedia NL is wrong because it says 16th of November 🙂

Funny posting this anniversary post a day before the 360’s 20th anniversary

It’s a shame FM8 wasn’t given a second chance through a Ps5 port. It deserved better.
I’ve always been a PlayStation/Nintendo fan(girl) but Forza is still my reason to get an Xbox. To many it’s Halo and Gears but to me Forza (and Fable) is what Xbox is.

At this point they’ll remake Survivor, Dead Aim and Degeneration before they’ll remake Code Veronica.

@fatpunkslim I mean CostCo and EB Games actually pulled their Xbox offerings worldwide just last month.
It’s not weird to think more stores will follow.

So since these are day 1 launches they’re all ultimate except for the PC game right?

While I already stopped renewing monthly I still got gamepass bi monthly.
They have now lost me as a customer entirely. Was good while it lasted.

@NobodyDom search engine optimization. Sad reality of modern journalism but sadly a requirement with how horrible google’s algorithm is. A need for PureXbox to stay visible and gather new readers (and NintendoLife and PushSquare.)

@RetroMan71 do you mean Hollow Knight is highly praised?
Silksong hasn’t released yet so people can’t know if it’s good yet. Reviews aren’t out yet either.

@kezelpaso Ninja Gaiden 4 is not a first party game. It’s developed by Team Ninja, Platinum Games and Koei Tecmo. Microsoft only does the publishing. It’s like calling Dragon Quest 11 a first party Nintendo game because Nintendo published it on Switch.

@BAMozzy it’s sad and completely unnecessary. When children do it I understand, they can’t just go “I’ll play on everything and then some” but adults (that aren’t in a poor financial situation) absolutely have the ability to play on anything and no reason to argue out of brand loyalty.

Saw a post on r/gamecollecting recently about a guy saying with rumors the next xbox is all digital they feel like they bet on the wrong horse and people told him to collect multiplatform and he kept responding that he’d never buy PlayStation or Nintendo because he’s loyal to xbox and always will be, said he’d quit gaming before collecting for the “other teams”.

I’ll rewrite my comment more “nicely”
The console wars aren’t a thing, haven’t been for years. Some people convince themselves they exist for various reasons but it’s unnecessary, the only actual console wars that happened was the SNES v Mega Drive. Most people these days either own all platforms, a PC or just don’t care about waging a “war”. And that’s a good thing.

@Elbow the peacemaker leak is 9 months old now and likely fake
Gorillaz and B&B where based on datamines while Peacemaker is “insider info” and 9/10 times “insider info” leaks are fake, even coming from the big 3 leakers.

@Elbow assuming you are playing it yet, gonna play Fortnite for the current Gorillaz collab and the leaked Beavis & Butthead collab?

I’ll stick with the Switch 2 TYVM
Call me when PlayStation and Xbox make genuine handheld consoles instead of a screen share tablet and a pc.

As long as these age old games are cloud based and not native emulation I don’t care.
I’ve seen footage of this at ok internet speeds and a few kb atari 2.600 games should not have buffer and render issues and cost lots of data to play.

@FraserG yeah I meant Capcom using that term in the title is misleading

@FraserG @Fiendish-Beaver headsup the “remaster” terminology is misleading. It’s a full on remake.

Yet it’s gonna be €80 in Europe according to leaks which translates to about $95 USD.

@Kaloudz well because 1.) the Tolkien estate is squeezing money out of the IP atm and 2.) I think if they would wait on the IP to lapse they still couldn’t air it in the US without licensing it.

It’s the same reason why Sherlock Holmes has to be renamed to Herlock Sholmes so often. The books have been public domain worldwide for years except for in the US where the Arthur Conan Doyle estate still owns the character.

@Kaloudz correct. In Europe and most of the world tolkien’s works are entering public domain soon. In the US it will take a few more years and it’ll be a book by book situation rather than all his works like in most of the world.

I like THPS3+4. Solid 9/10 but could’ve been a 10/10 with just a bit more care, especially in 4’s regard.

@Tasuki this isn’t that kind if a petition
If this reaches 1m signatures the EU is obligated by law to seriously consider and debate this subject and it’s a topic that already has a lot of support within the EU senate.

So opposite of a waste of time.

@Kaloudz they’re hoping the EU will force always online games that go offline permanently to either add offline capability if the game supports single player, add peer to peer capabilities so people can continue playing online or make the servers open source so fans can continue to run servers.

Jez Cordon is a grifter. I don’t see why we keep acting like he’s in the know when 9/10 times he’s incorrect

This seems to be a 1/10 situation where he’s right but that shouldn’t give his “leaks” any merit or power.

@SingleStooge mario Kart World definitely doesn’t look like one but when you’re actually playing it it sure feels like one.
Still doesn’t justify it but damn is MKW a high quality product.

@JumpingJackson sadly this and all future Xbox Game Studio games have been announced to be a code in a box on all platforms starting with Outer Worlds 2. No more second hand buying 😢

I wouldn’t call pre production “proper development”
I mean it’s in the name, pre production. It’s in the very early planning stages.

@Lup are you playing all 8 God of War games or just the 5 games made by Santa Monica?
If the latter I would atleast recommend Ghost of Sparta as it’s amazing.

Hotel Dusk on the DS and Fortnite on the Switch and Ps5.

Not much in anticipation for the Switch 2. Gonna be a slow 12 days.

That’s big for what’s supposedly a near 1:1 remake in a new engine.

@Fiddleroyolanda @FraserG it’s a remake that calls itself a remaster like similar games (crash bandicoot, spyro, spongebob, THPS, Dead Rising)

It’s a trend that started after Resident Evil 2 and FF7R where companies started calling remakes “remasters” if it didn’t completely change the gameplay and story

Honest answer? They still sell well, especially CoD, and adding them to gamepass would impact those sales.

@Kaloudz difference is Microsoft is porting their newest games.
Sony is porting 10 to 20 year old psp and psvita games.
