Wish they'd just sell an adapter of some sort and let us pick our own SSD. 2TB models are selling for cheaper than this new 1tb card.

Good, hopefully it'll all be over soon!

Terrific selections for the cover, can't wait to see it in action!

@TakeItEasy definitely don't agree with that at all, but was definitely a poor showing.

Metal Gear for sure, they rest passable. Nothing too exciting from that group

About what I expected out of this one, will wait for it to be half off towards the end of the year

Definitely my most anticipated Xbox game for the year. Hopefully we get a ton of info at the showcase!

Yes, every week! Usually will get a few hours a week or less depending on if I have the cars on offer in the playlist. Still the best racer out there

Awesome news, much more reasonable. Still a bit pricey but moving in the right direction

Just finished watching it, I thought it was a good interview and he took some responsibility. Hopefully he can get things back on track for the rest of the year and beyond. While I'm not overly excited for Starfield, only mildly curious, I really really hope it delivers for everyone!

After 8ish hours I'm not sure there's anything that can drastically improve it, game is just not very good. Outside of a massive DLC expansion that overhauls virtually everything, there's no saving this one imo.

About 4 hours in and I agree with a lot of the criticism. Game just feels rushed and incomplete at times and downright broken occasionally. Loot is rather unexciting and as many have said it sorely needs 60 fps.

Played for about an hour. Was planning on holding off but had nothing better to play so I gave it a go. It's not terrible, feels very Far Cry-ish so far. Dunno how long it'll keep my attention but seems decent so far.

Will get around to it once performance patch is released, no rush

I know it'll never happen but I wish they'd make a complete minimalist option. All I want is a screen with a list of installed games. No pics, no ads just a straight MS DOS like roster of games and let me go on my merry way.

Very surprising, and holding off to tell bad news until 3 weeks before launch usually isn't the best strategy. Game seems undercooked though I hope to be wrong, well see

Constantly in the 90+% range with only 3 or 4 games at a time. Really wish the expansion cards were cheaper

Loving the DLC so far. The navigation callouts got pretty grating after a race or 2, thankfully they can be turned off. Outside of that its been a welcome return to the game!

Played for a couple hours, reminded of why I don't like "souls" games. Just not my cup of tea, looks gorgeous though for sure

I do as well. The Forza Horizon games are the main reason I even have an Xbox at all and while I love 5,really just feels like 4 in a new skin at times. Hoping for a drastic change for the next one in a couple years

Looks like just more of the same for the most part. I'll of course jump back in since its already been purchased but was hoping to be wowed a bit more I guess

Finally!! Seems to be off road focused which should be nice. Hopefully we get a healthy sized campaign

Yeah, think I will upgrade whenever this gem finally drops. Awesome news!

Hardly surprising but good news. Really enjoyed the last 2 and always down for a Ubisoft checklist open world. I feel a Ubisoft direct coming soon

Disappointing but I have no doubt it'll be worth the wait. Definitely my most anticipated of the year thus far

It's pretty good, better than I expected and quite unique. Dunno how much more I'll play but glad people are excited about it!

C for me. Forza stole the show, the minecraft game looks like it'll be a fun romp with the kids for a while, the other 3 didn't do anything for me personally but I thought it was decent overall!

Can't wait to humiliate my kids in this, going to be a blast lol!!

All I need is a deep dive of Forza and I'll be content, anything else is just icing on the cake, excited to watch!

Cool that they're doing official bundles but 6+ months of GPU at that price would be a much better sell imo

I'd go with a B, love our little S makes for a perfect secondary console. Gamepass is basically free and outside of a couple controllers I haven't spent a dime on it since getting it last December. Look forward to the next wave of exclusives!

0, if it's not on GP I'll get it elsewhere or wait.

No company has a better reward program than MS, easy simple way to earn 20-25 bucks a month with little effort! Will check this avenue out, thank you

I'd give to a 6 or 7. Campaign was fine, nothing special. MP was fun for a few hours but definitely not something I'd sink a ton of time into. Still, glad they're sticking with it and hope it improves over time

Not at all. Tried playing myself but found the dialog very grating. My kids have enjoyed it though. It's a decent enough shooter with some neat ideas but the humor just missed the mark with me

Gave it a shot but definitely not for me. Glad it's being well received though!

Very very fun so far! Story and cutscenes are obviously varying levels of cringy but the racing is on point. Look forward to playing more today.

Of the games I played on Xbox probably have to go with TMNT Shredders Revenge. Absolutely perfect nostalgia trip in every way. None of the exclusives (Plague Take, Scorn etc) really clicked with me this year. That being said I'd wager on Elden Ring winning it despite no interest in playing

So tired of hearing about this. Really hope it just gets done and we can all move on

It's a terrific secondary console and a perfect product for someone like myself who will always be a PS player but enjoys a handful of exclusives. And with many multiplayer games going crossplay, makes it much easier to play games like Destiny/Rocket league etc with both my kids together. Really happy they took the risk with it!

@BBB absolutely, I'm sure the backlash is deafening at the moment. Was probably the first thing discussed during the Monday staff meeting lol.

For a brand new AAA game from a huge studio that canceled the last gen version to enhance overall performance, absolutely. I'm not a graphics/frame rate snob in general but it's kind of unacceptable. With the amount of games that have been upgraded and optimized 2 years in this just comes across as "we don't know how to do it" imo.

I'm confident this will eventually be pacthed in and I'm more than happy to wait and scoop it up for $25ish when it does. To only have this news come out somewhat accidentally a week or so before launch is just a bad look all around.

No man's sky I think is one of the best in this category. Though not a game I'm particularly interested in playing, it's comeback arc has been legendary imo

Having played all of them I'd say Hot Pursuit 2 is the peak. Though just by a hair over the Underground games. Lots of up and downs but still one of my favorite franchises in gaming.

These games were great, would love some remakes or at the very least re-release of the older games in the meantime. Hope this leads to something soon!

Really need one of these as we can really only keep 3 or so games on our S at this point, but man they're expensive. Hopefully we get a sizable holiday discount in the states

Great to hear! Since GP is basically free at this point hopefully some of them outside of FM peaks my interest!

It really is great this year, they definitely tweaked more than they typically do. Having a blast with it so far, great "sports-rpg"!

Will be happy when we can one day do whatever we want with the UI on consoles. I mean the backgrounds & icons are neat and all but nowadays just give me a black background and an alphabetical list of what's installed and I'd love it!

Rad Racer on the NES, started a 30+ year love affair with racing games. No chance I could beat it today though lol!
