dreadful

Fabe, Perfect Dark and State of Decay are vaporware.

What a ***** disaster.

Is State of Decay and Fable also never coming out? Why do games take so long to make these days? What's the excuse?

Ugly stupid game nobody asked for.

Too many games being greenlit that have no chance of success.

It was always vaporware

If they made all their software Xbox exclusive it would single handedly turn the entire brand around.

Want to play doom, halo, Minecraft, Forza, call of duty? Get an Xbox. Simple as.

I watched a trailer for this earlier today and it just said PC and I went "aww man this looked cool I wish it was on xbox 😧"

Well, I didn't know it was and Gamepass too! Epic!

Could be Heretic and Hexen as MS now own the rights to those series.

Heretic 2 and Hexen 2 would be sick but the first games would make more sense.

The game was never real to begin with

Every single western person laid off will be replaced by cheap Indian labor.

This is just the modern day sweat shoppifying of the gaming industry.

All these big mega corps will just outsource their work to South America, India and China. You can pay poorer third world country people pennies instead of first world wages and all the benefits.

All your clothes and electronics are made by slave labor for pennies on the dollar. And so too are they making the moves to sweatshop your videogames.

It's weird to say "they ARE very talented despite...."

Like.... How do you know, dude? Do you know the devs personally?

Doesn't this game have like 100 players on steam lol

@smellyplaymarky really? You gave it that little chance? It takes a few hours to even grasp all the controls and the camera. You need to "let it cook" as gen z would say.

No idea how people are passing so accurately to each other. For me passing is incredibly difficult.

Giga flop. Sad.

They turned rocket league into some sort of sport. What a strange concept. What will they think of next!?

This franchise is dead.

NOBODY under 30 cares about Final Fantasy. It had a good run but franchises can't run forever.

3 price increases in one year? Not good. It's become rapidly not worth the asking price.

Why on EARTH would anyone buy a PS6 or new Xbox so soon? This has been the worst and most delayed generation ever. Almost no games actually max out the hardware. I wouldn't see any need to upgrade until after 2030.

@HylianWxo this right here. Bro, have you seen the image that shows how many games have released every year on Steam? It's actually crazy.

2025: 18,759

People that won't buy your game because it's on game pass wouldn't buy your game to begin with. It's not a lost sale.

@Kaloudz MS outsource massive amounts of work to for hire Devs in cheap labor countries.

Look it up. Halo Infinites engine was an absolute ***** mess because they got cheap Indian programmers to work on it and it's such a Hodge podged spaghetti code engine that they literally couldn't even add basic content without the entire game breaking.

It took over a year just to make different armour items equippable. One of the game modes was broken for 3 months and they struggled to fix it.

This outsourcing happens for every game basically. You can look up the credits of any modern AAA game and youll see giant walls of Indian and/or Chinese names.

@Kaloudz they HAVE found a way to cut costs. And that's by laying off thousands of staff and then outsourcing the jobs cheap in India and China and South America.

The videogame industry is creating sweatshop slave labor across the board. Why pay 100 employees in the US, Canada or UK first world wages when you can pay 1000 Indians or Chinese developers for the same cost as 100 people?

Look at how many Devs the different Rockstar studios have. 150-200 staff. Rockstar India has 1500 staff. If there was a rockstar China, which will actually probably happen. They would have 2500.

@Kaloudz yeah but I wanna see gameplay of these games announced literally 5 years ago

No perfect dark
No fable
No gears eday
No state of decay 3
No elder scrolls

What a ***** mess.

This year has actually been insane. I think it's easily the best year of gamepass to date and it's only JUNE!

They're actually going to show some gameplay of the game they announced 5 years ago. Wow.

What would they even show? They've had nothing but big flops and failures lately.

No difficulty changes? Normal is too easy. Expert is too hard.

I'm just going to uninstall it's taking up 120gb on my ssd

Spez Muhreen, Lost in random rogulike and even the soccer rocket league game all look great!

This is, simply, without a doubt, comma, THE, BEST year of Game pass to date, hands down.

Inb4 they all get laid off and those jobs outsourced to India at 90% less wages

Game flopped.

***** or get off the pot Microsoft, god damn

So a 2033 release then?

Oh goodie another £150 controller with no gyro

Duke Nukem is a must have for a quid fifty.
Witcher 3 for £2.50 might get bought. I had it on PS4 back in the day but it made my PS4 turn into a mini nuclear reactor.

Also the battle royale PacMan game dropping all the way to only £2.50 is huge. Gotta snap it up at that price. I wonder if the online completely dead?

Nah. Switch 2 and Series X combo will do me happily until like 2030+ 😎

Some really cool stuff in this showcase. Boltgun 2!!

I was actually stunned and amazed that not a SINGLE ONE of the 20+ games shown were available on Switch 1 or 2. Very quite strange yes? Thankfully I have a Xbox if they really do never make it over.

Dude, Gamepass has actually been insane this year! And it's only May!

@RetroMan71 and you're a fan of RoboCop 2 too right? RIGHT?!

I bought it for £8 a few weeks ago I'm absolutely FUMING right now 😡😡😡😉

How about they reduce the 15 lines of ads that they have pushed onto us on the home screen?

Game budgets STILL increasing.
Game prices increasing meaning more people either waiting for sales or just avoiding games entirely.

You thought the mega flops and dead studios were bad now? Baby, were only getting started.

Flop Era 2.0 is coming.

I wonder how much these codes will be from scalpers?

1000000% getting a Switch 2 whenever they're available. I imagine they'll be sold out for a long time like Series X was.

This is epic. Ill probably double dip on xbawx version and Switch 2 version.

Crossplay is the reason I'll double dip. Gotta support it for adding that. Should be standard for ALL fighting game releases cough cough capcom

Soccer Rocket League is like a full circle moment.

It actually looks really cool and I'm so happy it's a free game pass game so I'm definitely going to try it out

Never played any

I'm fully erect right now

Shocking amount of games that had little to no impact on this list.
