Is it too soon to start dreaming about FF7 Remake on Xbox again? 🥹

They should've just called it Game Pass Live.

I'm in Brazil, unfortunately. 😢

I played this game last month and didn't really like it. The graphics and visuals are quite nice, but combat and story are very poor. Definitely a forgettable experience.

Unfortunately getting points is becoming harder. I still do all missions everyday but had to start saving them for games I really wanted instead of getting smaller ones periodically as I used to.

Wasn't there a request by a regulatory entity on some country to analyze Sony's exclusivity contracts? What happened to it? I was kind of hoping we'd see them to know if there was any possibility of these exclusives coming to Xbox one day...

Considering the amount of the showcase advertisements they have been pushing lately, I'd say Microsoft is quite confident about what they have in store.

I. Cannot. Wait. For. This.

Best game of the show!!!

Got 550 points with this. I wonder if they'll renew these missions on a daily/weekly basis?

@GuyinPA75 Mine used to give double input randomly. It seems to have improved lately, but it has also had some rare cases of disconnection during gameplay. Hope they address these matters.

Active hours seems pretty interesting. I intend to use it mainly for getting reward points whenever I'm away from the console.

This sucks. I thought Microsoft wouldn't bother with it, but at least I still have my emulators set up in dev mode.

So Jim Ryan is afraid Microsoft will do the same thing Sony did to PC with the port of The Last of Us? Interesting...

Task 3 is not missing as the guy on the tweet suggested, it simply doesn't exist. It's obvious they removed the achievements task and forgot to rename them properly.

Funny how they have task 1, task 2 and task 4. 😂

Played this game last year on Switch, but performance was a big mess. Hope it's better now on Xbox.

How many people have suggested dropping development for PS4 for holding back the PS5, I wonder?

Because, you know... Games are still releasing on last gen consoles, but I only see these kinds of complaints against the Series S.

I believe Microsoft has enough experience by now to manage GP and sales in a way that neither will be harmed.

I don't think having an indie game on a subscription service means it will necessarily sell fewer copies or anything. Ultimately it will depend on how good their game is. I've played good games on Game Pass that weren't good enough for me to buy them, and I've played good games on there that made outright purchase them.

These approvals might come in handy in court.

I hope they're bringing Metal Gear Solid 4 to the current gen.

@UltimateOtaku91 Code Veronica still deserves a remake.

@Kienda Couldn't have said any better. It hurts me because I love Square Enix games and wish to support them, but I feel like they don't deserve my support. Not when they treat me like some sort of inferior costumer.

I really disliked Control. This is a sequel I'm not looking forward.

Oh sure, after 6 months the game will release on PC, and then maybe even PS4. That's what Sony's exclusivities mean.

It's a crappy move from Sony, unsurprisingly, to make a big title such as Silent Hill 2 exclusive.

However, Xbox is the only current gen console where I can play SH Origins, SH1, SH2 HD, SH3 HD, SH4 and SH Homecoming. It's a shame Downpour isn't on the store, but Xbox is practically the home of Silent Hill by now.

(Obviously Origins, 1 and 4 are playable through emulation, but it still counts!)

I wish Sony would be as friendly as Xbox is to their competitors.

I don't dislike the boot sound, it's just too loud. I wouldn't want to turn it off, simply turn it down a bit.

@UltimateOtaku91 As the guy above said, the games are generally lengthy. As a personal experience, I'd say you will probably end up being drawn to the side content anyways, but don't fret just because of it. These games are so good you will feel that 50 hours just flew by in the blink of an eye. However, even if you just ignore all substories, the main plot has enough to keep your interest throughout the series.

Difficulty wise, I played all of them on normal and they were ok. Except for the secret optional bosses in each game, which were a lot harder yet manageable, fights are generally on the easy side.

@UltimateOtaku91 I would recommend starting with Yakuza 0 as it will make the most sense and it's easy to follow the chronology. The story unfolds in order from 0 to 6 and then Like a Dragon. All the games are on Game Pass so there's no excuse not to play them.

It's horrendous! What were they thinking?!

He plays more than I.

Death Stranding is a game I've always been curious to try but couldn't because I don't own a Sony hardware, and just accepted it wasn't meant to be. Now it's coming to PC Game Pass and I still won't be able to play it because my PC is not good for gaming. I hope they somehow find a way to add it to Cloud Gaming. That would be the only way I could viably play the game.

Console war is cancer, it doesn't help anything or anyone. People are hating on each other because of a hobby that should bring us together. We are living on a moment of intolerance. It's bad socially and it's even worse psychologically.

@GASEOUS Foi a primeira vez que ganhei mano. Parece que estão fazendo isso com alguma frequência, uma hora chega pra vc também!

I'm in Brazil and got one! It was 40 reais (something like 8 USD). Used it to buy Lost Judgment.

@dsar9012 Xbox fans have literally the same things they had before as they didn't lose anything to Sony for making their console more user friendly.

@Decoy_Snake They might've not invented many of these things (and I never stated that), but made them in such a way that compels their competitors to move out of their comfort zones and work in favor of users rather than themselves so they don't fall behind. That's why Sony had to revamp PS Plus and why they're presenting a new rewards program, because these are things that work on the Xbox and weigh on consumers' decision.

@Titntin Maaan... consider starting to use them. I've been doing a "Sales + Gift Card" combos and have saved quite a bit on games purchases!

@Decoy_Snake Yeah, let's pretend Xbox never contributed positively to the industry. 🤦🏻‍♂️

@UltimateOtaku91 I haven't been an Xbox user for long, so I don't know who came up with a rewards program first. However, it's undeniable that this generation Sony has been walking on Xbox path. Studio acquisitions, a rental subscription service on par with Game Pass, first party games on PC, now a rewards program (read on Twitter they had this previously, but it must've been quite obscure, I suppose). I wonder what's next? Maybe we'll see the new PS Plus working on PC and smartphones soon.

PlayStation users have much to thank Xbox for. Sony is turning the PS into an Xbox and they are all very happy with these changes.

I bought them already, but it's good to see these games back on GP.

@Titntin 6/13 to 6/19 = over a month 🙄

In my region I get around 5000 points monthly, except when there is the 10 week bonus of 2500 points.

I got nothing, though today I redeemed some gift cards to purchase Yakuza 0 and Kiwami. Yay! 😁

Would love to see it being announced for Xbox, though I kinda doubt it.

@Verzion214 I noticed this with RE Village. I am in Brazil, so it's not just in UK.

@Banjo- Well I don't know why it's coming to PS4 and not Xbox One, but it's only natural old gen machines will lose support over time.

Maybe the PS4 version is justified by the number of consoles sold and still active, which is obviously much bigger than Xbox One. That doesn't mean Capcom has abandoned Xbox users, and I'm glad for it.

@anoyonmus SF6 is coming to the Series. Xbox One is old generation, you can't expect it to receive new games forever.

I'm happy that Capcom did not abandon their fans on Xbox, unlike some other company that produces RPGs...
