Mmm, the Trumbull Valley one is better. But, well, I take it.

It’s great to see a positive article that could create traffic and engagement on the site. Good. @FraserG

My last Sony home console was PlayStation 2, from there I was surfing the waves with Wii, then Wii U. Suddenly, me and my friends had more time and money, and wanted to invest in a new main system.

We weren't interested in God of War and such, so we picked Xbox One X, due to a promising service and features, and the many titles we skip before.

In our first years we caught up with Gears, Halo, Forza, Ori, State of Decay, and a some multiplatforms. So, we came for the system aspects, and stayed for the games.

I played Chinatown Wars in DS, and it was fantastic. I have it installed on PSP, with the hope to replay it someday. And that's all my story with GTA. I'm not a follower, but 'm glad for people who will enjoy this new entry.

Hall of Tortured Souls revisited.

This is just console wars fodder. PlayStation has a bigger cultural penetration than Xbox in regions outside US. We have a huge casuals market playing F2P games in mobiles and consoles, some just want to play Fornite in theirs TVs, and PlayStation is the device they know.

In the dedicated segment, off course there are almost no reasons to buy an Xbox (vs PC), except if you want to enjoy the plug-n-play convenience it offers. Their service is top notch, I'd like to remark.

So, the real question if it's Xbox is selling enough to be sustainable, and attractive for third party partners. My impression is that Microsoft will move to PC architecture.

Amazon Studios made that abomination called Rings of Power. Hard pass.

The man would be a legend if he does it.

Sarah Bond talked about 'transition', so I understand they are moving from the classic home console manufacturer to a ubiquitous system ("every screen is an Xbox"). Still, they want to keep being the Xbox brand, so the install base is becoming alienated.

'Great games' mean something different to dedicated players and sales departments. Yes, It seems Microsoft wants to be Andréi Tarkovski and Michael Bay at the same time.

@GamingFan4Lyf I think you are in the right interpretation. And I think that's exactly why they rebooted the Preservation Team.

I’m playing DC Justice League: Cosmic Chaos, and I’m loving it.

But, but, there was nothing wrong with the update. They told us.

He should have left, as Reggie did when there was pressure from Nintendo to pursue copyright infractors. Bowser was the man for that call, and Reggie cared about his style and reputation.

If Phil was gone before ABK adquisition, maybe he would be remembered with high regard.

She is talking about home console, cloud, and a portable device. If we are consistent with everything we know so far. It’s just that.

It looks amazing. I hope to play it at some point. To the wishlist!

I want that portable so badly!

These experts always have a posteriori analysis. I can't remember anyone telling these things during the ABK debacle years.

I think this is the kind of execs that work in these corporations. Always trying to interpret the current data, never having a vision, and wanting to risk money to make it possible. The only plan is making cash.

And that's good! for the marketing and sales deparment, at least. But, you also need the madmen, the dreamers, the storytellers in some key positions.

Well, at least it's not death threats.

What a mess. Xbox brand is truly at their worst. It’s almost a joke at this point.

@theduckofdeath Yeah, I agree with you. My point is how Todd is always cunningly justifying everything. He could be more honest, or just don't say anything. I remember him saying 'Starfield is the game I always wanted to make, it's a dream come true' or something like that. He is very prone to do that kind of PR talking.

@PhileasFragg Yeah. He also justified 30fps: "we do lock it at 30[fps] because we want that fidelity, we want all that stuff. We don't want to sacrifice any of it." Now, it changes. The guy is a peddler.

I’m not interested in the game, but I’m glad to see 40fps VRR mode, and I hope it’ll be a trend.

Are you sure you installed the update, guys? xD
What is this!

"When connected to a 120Hz display, Quality mode will target 40 FPS." Perfect!

I wonder if achivements have been fixed, as well.

A more robust social system.
Make a base anywhere on the map.
More options for base management.
New freaks types.

Or whatever UL wants, I trust this guys. SoD3 is on track to be amazing.

I prefer medium/long games. But, I hate when they are bloated just to meet some quota. Anyway, I play some short games between.

@Kraven I understand. Thanks for your kind reply.

@Kraven You always comment about how much you are enjoying your PlayStation, here in PureXbox, in these very same articles, every week. What's the point? just curious.

I love Shadow of the Tomb Raider and completed the DE. Not hot for me either, but, I have some good titles to play before Eiyuden Chronicle drops.

But, Korsica looks equally sexy in both consoles. At least, Xbots and Ponies could agree on that.

The money ran out. Investors are looking others sectors to play casino.

I’m so ready for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes.

I enjoyed the campaign. I’m not a multiplayer guy, but have heard good things about Infinite lately.

One guy suggests that Xbox is done, and everyone loses their minds.

I'll buy this day 1 if it runs my console games collection natively, as suggested.

The Quarry is a pleasant surprise.
I'm still intrigued by Open Roads, maybe I'll bite.

Low access barrier and discoverability (Game Pass, sales) of many different games. I have found new ones I love.

I can rediscover my favorite titles, presented in a fresh manner with higher resolution, framerate, and deeper colors.

Sharing saves between console and PC allows me to continue my games when I'm not at home.

Unique exclusives like Gears, State of Decay, and Halo, create a place that feels special and different from other platforms.

Naaaa. Currently, everything is overblown in terms of scoring.

Time passes and these rankings being more and more misaligned with my personal experiences. So, I encourage people to follow their instintcts, not these scores.

I played I, II and Xtreme back in the day. Great games, and I have fond memories about the first one. Never played III at the PS2 for different reasons at the time; or the (english patched) GBC Parallel Trippers.

I'm glad to see the title on Xbox. Buying it for sure.

I’ll eventually buy it on Xbox, but I have other things to play before. I love these strategy JRPG.

Great format, and I like the serene masculine voice-over. It creates an interesting atmosphere, besides the current hype culture, where everything has to be over the top and super explosive.

P3R Expansion Pass as a perk for GPU members is crazy.
I can't wait for Kunitsu-Gami, I love the art and premise.
The Alters looks dope, among other good titles for Game Pass.

A.

Yes! I want to know more about Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess.

I played both NNK in Game Pass, and completed the second one, which I liked it more, due to the kingdom management.

I beat the story of the first one, I'll try to rush the post-game before it leaves. Not a bad game at all, but I didn't like it as much as I expected.

Guys, it's too soon to be asking these questions. I don't want to think about it or the time is going to slow down.

Man, I just learn yesterday that Unicorn Overlord is coming to Xbox. Amazing news. I hope it's the first of many other Vanillaware games like 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, and GrimGrimoire OnceMore.

Some people treat Xbox as a religion, they forget it's part of a private company.

First comments are the gold standard in overreacting and Xbox super duper apocalypse.

Dragon Quest and Shin Megami Tensei are my favorite RPG series of all time, and I’m very pleased to see them both on Xbox in these recent years. Keep going!

@Banjo- Same with Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, I completed the original in Wii U, so I skipped the new version. But, I am open to play it someday, same with some 3DS version of Wii/U games I played back in the day: Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World.

Radiant Historia comes to my mind as well. One of my favorite RPGs on the DS, I have a 3DS 'Perfect Chronology' copy waiting for me. I agree with you that there are some RPGs worth to be replayed.
