I've just fired it up for another playthrough. No overly flash visuals for my system but really looking forward to some interactions with the police and I think I might be a bit more engaged with skill progression this time around. It was all a bit much to follow before. I've always liked the accessibility of Borderlands in the upgrades.

Yeah mech games would be rad, and Tenchu

Looks like a bit of me

Awesome! Can't wait, really loved snowrunner and it's nice to see no logs haha

Kiwi here, I wasn't even expecting NZ to be on the list and genuinely not surprised we have only just chimed in haha. Reminds me of this ad - https://youtu.be/POVilJye_wc

I'm xbox/PC but how good would a sneaky PS release of Starfield be to blow all the minds. Some crazy negative hype loop flipped on its head.

That's about time miss 3 will be rocking in to my room (5 am) to wake me up so I'd say I'll pop it on the phone while she's cranking Peppa Pig or Bluey

Definitely grabbing myself a GameSir X2 Pro - or keeping my eyes peeled on other new offerings, might as well make the most of my phone!

@FraserG I spend more time on PureXbox and browsing gamepass than I do playing games! haha cheers for the constant updates

@Titntin @FraserG thankyou both for replying, Titntin, you're on the money. I wonder how gaming journalism could possible change tact slightly to report on how the deal is of benefit (or otherwise) to gamers as a whole - actually break it down rather than a quick fire he said she said, where the comments sections fill up with predominatly uninformed and tribalised opinion. With regards to 'what's the feeling in the Push Square comments section' - I knew the answer already, Titntin responded better than I could have composed myself. Keeping these pages separate works for me because I play on XB/PC but that's no reason to keep gamers separate through the journalism on the biggest deal ever proposed that has potential to affect half of us with the largest benefit to a corporation. Journalism for gamers as a whole, curated in to respective sites for the audience required. Not audience(corpo) driven journalism that serves the corpos first, gamers second.

'We didn't come here to ***** spiders' - it's a long game for our corporate overlord.

@FraserG you're doing an awesome job by the way
I have a request - seen as you legends are also Push Square - how about a bit of a report on 'how each community feels about this stuff' - I do not frequent that page as often, but would be of interest to see where the PS and XBOX community themselves stand on this subject. Are gaming communities on the same page or do we have a tendency to support our chosen corporate overlords interests over our own etc?

Looks nice but the GameSir X2 Pro has my attention still. Really cool that we are getting a few new options! I've come to the personal preference of a more 'handheld gaming console' as per switch/vita aesthetic/layout rather than a gaming controller split in half.

Always loved these arcade shooters, modern light gun to get is AimTrak (PC/RPi)

Portal 2 is a must play co op!

Whens co op yappening?

Looks like a load of fun, and I'm rooting for the five devs!
Considering my love of The Ascent visually and audibly from a team of 12 - I hope this passion project is also well received.

Interesting IP, delivered with love and without the corporate influence while delivering top notch experience and visuals - I won't think twice about giving them money for their efforts.

Are game delays part of a marketing strategy these days?

I for one had high hopes, I didn't have much time to take a deep dive in to what I was seeing pre release and thought it looked like it will be a bit of fun. Thanks for the write up, and everyone's piece in the comments section. Genuinely should be proud of the comment section on purexbox it's a bloody good crowd.

Also keen, keen on any co op developments too

My beef is the lack of cross play with ubisoft games I've tried on gamepass (pc). Farcry 6 (free weekend!) and Ghost Recon: Wildlands got me so excited to co op with my friend on xbox but no....

Whaaaat that's awesome Commandos 3! I remember loving the first one. Pumped for a spruced up reminisce

@SpacemanJupiter hope so!

[FARCRY] I'm just gutted it took until after a friend(XSX) and I (PC) finished the relevant missions before starting co op only to find out there is no cross play, what a let down.

@MattWithoutFear I have played co op a while after release and some relevant patches and I don't recall any major issues.

I was obsessed with The Ascent. Not quite 100% on achievements due to it being buggy - need to die 100 times again and thats done. Its been months but still installed waiting for DLC so looking forward to supporting them

Honestly the environment is stunning, and the audio! Far out I've never enjoyed a twin stick isometric like I did this one. The minute I started playing it I fell in love with the aesthetic and audio.

Story was a non event but bloody great otherwise. An awesome achievement for a small team. A more compelling and engaging story and its delivery would really lift this game.

I had to stop reading the comments, positivity overload haha. I have neither but it's nice to know that S owners are genuinely happy with them. I'm not completely up to date with performance outcomes of cloud gaming but would I be right in assuming that the Series S would deliver as good as good as Series X and that your TV and internet connection are now the bottlenecks?

Everyone outside of the board of directors and representatives of the relevant business in negotiation here is just spouting uninformed opinion. As an older gamer I'm not threatened by acquisitions, we the buyers hold them accountable by voting with our money and our ability to absolutely tank something by the use of the tools we are using right now. Don't mess with gamers, you'll get rekt. I'm an xbox/pc user and would go ape ***** on MS/XBOX public threads, and not buy their products to fight for our gaming community, and you all know you would too. Take a look at the recent Wall Street news, the people have the power if they band together. Exclusive rights won't be around for much longer.

@Hexamex-Tex not to mention forcing the installation of their launcher on PC

I'm looking forward to giving Wildlands a hoon, co op campaigns are my jam. Second only to couch co op!

Damn, so not PC?

pretty sure it killed my xbox, but it was fun until then

Is he aussie/kiwi? Really doesn't sound like he's from Kansas as per the Youtube About. But man, I have loved every minute of playing Quake again. Cool vid too.
