Re: Oops, Xbox's Confidential Review Of The Last Of Us 2 Just Leaked

masofdas

What mightyant said this was an interesting review which was rather positive as well with only the one negative which they even turn into positive.

To me if Xbox takes this feedback on board for these internal reviews, what does that mean to a Perfect Dark in terms of VO, Graphics, Story etc but improve on where they feel TLoU is weak with fantastic gunplay then to me, that's good.

Overall better games from all companies is only a good thing.

Re: Rumour: Sony Deal Will Bar Resident Evil Village From Xbox Game Pass

masofdas

I love Game Pass and why Xbox is now my main system now, along with not getting a PS5 at the moment as I'm waiting for the bigger 1st party games for that, as that all I be playing on it.

Yet even if there wasn't a deal I don't expect every game to come to Game Pass or in a timely manner, Res Evil Village is one till today I wouldn't even think about it in regard to Game Pass for a few years at least.

Outriders and MLB has spoiled us, on what we should be expecting.

Re: 'Rumour' Suggests Ubisoft+ Could Join Xbox Game Pass, But Don't Get Your Hopes Up

masofdas

I can see Ubisoft+ being part of a version of Game Pass (maybe like a premium Game Pass which gives DLC for likes of Forza) but otherwise seems too good to be true when Ubisoft+ is £10 a month on its own on PC, Luna and Stadia then to be part of a service with no extra cost like EA Play was only £20ish a year anyway

So if Ubisoft+ comes to console why would anyone Xbox pay just £10 a month for Ubisoft+, if they could get that and more for the same amount

Also, the rest of that list in the tweet seems like hopeful predictions more than anything

Re: Here's The Full List Of Xbox Series X|S Launch Day Titles

masofdas

@BlueOcean its one of those things like maybe if i had sold my Xbox One X instead of my PS4 I'd would go Xbox Series X day one as it does this and this for me, why I kept the One X because of my 400+ games, Game Pass and for 3rd parties at the moment such as Tony Hawk better place to play than PS4

Where I was done with PS4 (I may have played
Fall Guys) and getting what I did for it on ebay was a lot that its paid for the PS5

Re: Here's The Full List Of Xbox Series X|S Launch Day Titles

masofdas

@thejameswhogames If you've not had an Xbox One then getting a Series X or S is the better system even just for Game Pass as you'll have like 200+ games with a bunch looking better on the new systems and you can go back to stuff like Sunset Overdrive that you've missed

@BlueOcean Not sure how many of the 1st party PlayStation Studio games we will see on PC

The timed stuff from others is only really good for people like me, as I get to play Godfall right away and The Medium right away but can see it being annoying for some or swinging them one way as has me as I'm interested in three of the timed exclusives on PlayStation compared to just the one on Xbox this year that we know of

Re: Here's The Full List Of Xbox Series X|S Launch Day Titles

masofdas

@thejameswhogames Where reports it was coming to PC but then after it seems with a mix-up of a video, that is coming to PS5 only.

EDIT just seen the rumours of Demons of PS4 from a store in Hungry, seems odd not to announce it for PS4 when others have such as

The PS4 & PS5 games are confirmed are Miles Morales, Sackboy, Horizon Forbidden West from 1st party then you do have the indies like Bugsnax and Goodbye Volcano High which are PS4/PS5 also sometimes PC as well

As someone that doesn't have a PS4 as I sold mine during lockdown as going for a pretty penny on eBay. That I've got on day one like 6+ new games on the PS5 where on Series X as I have a One X which is my main system why I didn't sell during lockdown there's not a lot of new games at the minute

I'm just really waiting for Halo or another big Xbox game I want to look as good as it can which means playing on a XSX over a One X or a handful of games like The Medium that are just on Series X|S.

Re: Here's The Full List Of Xbox Series X|S Launch Day Titles

masofdas

@BlueOcean Yep Zelda is my fav series and I loathe BotW

@Xiovanni Yep why I'm waiting on the Series X as I've played likes of Gears 5, a lot of 3rd party stuff (which I can get on PS5), where on PS5 I got Miles (I don't have a PS4 sold during lockdown when going for a decent amount of money), Demons, Godfall, Sackboy and don't forget Bugsnax on day one with Ratchet in the launch window

Just waiting for that Halo or another big Xbox game which I want to look best it can or a handful Series only games such as The Medium

Re: Here's The Full List Of Xbox Series X|S Launch Day Titles

masofdas

@Friendly personally feel BotW is maybe the most overrated game ever, also it's on WiiU (where I do own it) so something like Miles Morales is in a similar position to it in that regards. I think Demons Souls will be the closet to it from a critical standpoint.

Big fan of Halo, bought Metroid Prime for my Cube thinking it be Nintendo's Halo. I was very wrong and such a different game

Re: Here's The Full List Of Xbox Series X|S Launch Day Titles

@BlueOcean PS5 Launch line up

Assassin's Creed Valhalla
Astro's Playroom, Built in
Borderlands 3
Bugsnax
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War
Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition
Demon's Souls
Destruction AllStars
Dirt 5
Fortnite
Godfall
Just Dance 2021
Maneater
Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, (Spider-Man Remastered available via Ultimate Edition)
Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate
NBA 2K21
Observer: System Redux
The Pathless
Planet Coaster
Sackboy: A Big Adventure
Watch Dogs: Legion

So yeah about 50% more on Xbox but I would think likes of War Thunder, WRC will be confirmed for PS5 launch now they've been confirmed for Xbox Series X|S. That I would think they'll end up being about the same.

Re: Poll: How Many Xbox Consoles Have You Owned In Total?

masofdas

Personally had:

OG Xbox Black
OG Xbox Crystal
Xbox 360 Core
Xbox 360 Elite
Xbox 360 Slim
Xbox One
Xbox One
Xbox One Forza Blue
Xbox One S

Had those at least then had a market stall where I would have owned Xboxes and got a OG Xbox Crystal at the moment in my collection that I picked up at a boot sale

Re: Codemasters Dev: The Xbox Series S Is An Amazing Piece Of Kit

masofdas

@BlueOcean you say it was assumed but seems it wasn't by some (by the accounts, die hard Xbox fans) and isn't just textures as we have the asset example with the crowd or weather, where the replies etc I got were on lines it be exactly the same even though MS saying up to the devs.

As the interview puts it "Does that matter? And is that really the experience that's aimed at that person that has spent £250 buying a Series S?"

And I think the S will be a huge success, but I was pointing out why I was getting an X at the time

Re: Codemasters Dev: The Xbox Series S Is An Amazing Piece Of Kit

masofdas

@BlueOcean I tweeted similar to what you're saying and had reply after reply saying S will be the same as X but in 1440p, yet this interview and even some Microsoft wording says stuff about assets like in this case with Dirt 5, "the amount of crowd or intensity of weather or shadow quality"

Re: Soapbox: Despite Halo's Delay, I'm Still Stoked For The Xbox Series X Launch

masofdas

I've lost some enthusiasm for the Series X at launch due to lack of Halo.

It's great what MS are doing and I can just play what I've got on my One X but I can't see me going back to Gears 5 etc.

I love Game Pass as well but I don't think the 2020 games coming such as Tetris Effect or Call of the Sea are really going to push the Series X that much more than my One X.

That the real only benefit for myself is it be the best place to play Assassin's Creed, Madden, Cyberpunk etc but as I plan to get a PS5 and sure they won't be as good on that as XSX but still be better on PS5 than my One X.

That for now, I'll be sticking with my One X playing those Game Pass games and waiting to see when Halo arrives, and if it brings a special edition console along with it

Re: Talking Point: Is Microsoft About To Make Xbox Live Multiplayer Free?

masofdas

Hmm see at the moment I pay for Game Pass Ultimate because I get online and game pass but if online were to become free I for instance would just sub to Game Pass and got to be a lot of people that do that and has to be still a lot of people that still sub just to Gold

If I had to guess they'll come a yearly Game Pass Ultimate option instead
