@TheCityPop Yeah, at least it is, for now. Geoffrey from Undead Labs said in BlueSky: "Studio is still here, project is still intact, but there are now fewer of us, and the people we lost were GOOD."
Xbox is having a great output in terms of software, and I don't doubt they will show solid games in the event, but I'm not a "hype" person. 7/10, optimistic.
What a day! I love old titles with a visual overhaul. It's a great way to revisit these timeless classics. Never played Oblivion before, so I'm double excited.
I'm using a Retroid Pocket 5 for streaming, when wife is using the TV. It works well, specially for turn based games, with a custom app that supports 1080p.
It's always a joy seeing that small device 'running' the games.
Sales, growth, costumers, value, distribution, partners, blah blah. Everytime this guy opens his mouth is to talk about bussiness. What a hollow brand has Xbox become.
I don't swallow it. I do prefer running games on hardware, natively. The more control I have, the better. I'm not against this "future", but I'm not following it. Gladly, technology give us a lot of alternatives.
Solid B. Great games overall. Glad to see Animal Well coming to Xbox, and Wuchang is looking very good. Remedy's Firebreak could be a hit with my coop partners.

Re: Xbox's Matt Booty Issues Statement On Layoffs And Game Cancellations
I hate this guy. We boo with our friends every time he appears in the Showcases.
Re: Two More Xbox Games Are Being Cancelled, Including Perfect Dark
@NishimuraX It seems that SoD3 is OK, and Undead Labs has been reduced to 80 employees.
Re: Two More Xbox Games Are Being Cancelled, Including Perfect Dark
I just hope State of Decay 3 is OK, or I swear it's the end for me with these clowns.

Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Update '1.3.0' Now Live On Xbox, Here Are The Patch Notes
Act 3 balance was a total joke. I nuked secret boss, even after first StendahI fix. I don’t get how they dropped the ball so hard.
I see they are being more aggressive now with capped damage.

Re: Talking Point: Do You Have High Expectations For The Xbox Games Showcase 2025?

Re: Xbox's 2027 Handheld Expected To Include Nintendo Switch-Like Docking System
@Banjo- yeah, that would be concerning, and a really bad decision.
Re: Xbox's 2027 Handheld Expected To Include Nintendo Switch-Like Docking System
@Banjo- Is there an official confirmation about HDMI ports version in Switch 2 dock?

I can't justify spending that much money in a new system, and games, being I already have a solid catalog to play for years to come.

Sometimes, you have to give that maximum score. And, this is the case.
Re: Indie Dev Defends Xbox Game Pass As Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Sells Most On PS5
We don't know how much Microsoft payed for having the game on Game Pass. Nor we have numbers about player engagement.
Hard to debate without data.
Re: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Is Now Available On Xbox Game Pass
What a day! I love old titles with a visual overhaul. It's a great way to revisit these timeless classics. Never played Oblivion before, so I'm double excited.
Re: Xbox Cloud Gaming Handheld Smashes Kickstarter Target By Over $80K
I'm using a Retroid Pocket 5 for streaming, when wife is using the TV. It works well, specially for turn based games, with a custom app that supports 1080p.
It's always a joy seeing that small device 'running' the games.

@themightyant There's nothing wrong with the logic of the statement, but maybe it was not the best for PR, as we can see.

Power, Battery, Price.

Sales, growth, costumers, value, distribution, partners, blah blah. Everytime this guy opens his mouth is to talk about bussiness. What a hollow brand has Xbox become.
Re: Reaction: Like It Or Not, Xbox Has Gone Full Throttle On Multiplatform
@Utena-mobile Yeah, that's a solid combo.
Re: Reaction: Like It Or Not, Xbox Has Gone Full Throttle On Multiplatform

Re: Microsoft Is Now Advertising Pretty Much Every Gaming Device As An Xbox
No thanks. I don't want everything to be an Xbox, what kind of sad electronics world is that.

@Boldfoxrd sadly, that's the case.

Wow. I was thinking to play it on PlayStation at some point, but now it will be on Xbox, for sure. Great price, too.
