The pot calling kettle black, do microsoft want their console exclusives to be playable on psplus? Of course not, they (sony and microsoft) are both guilty of this.
@Bleachedsmiles I think that full reviews should be on games forums, not on the game reviews pages. And about the player base, microsoft should copy steam, where gamers can see how many players each game has in the store website/digital store.
The review should be a 1-5 star point for: Graphics, Audio, Gameplay, and Story, no word needed. And gave xbox players some points (like nintendo points) so gamers like to review the games.
Microsoft will win usa market if they make call of duty exclusive to their console, of course cod make so much money on playstation so they didn't want to do that.
Exclusive perk to xbox and making xbox the primary console for cod tournament will make some players choose xbox instead of playstation I think. And of course there's gamepass, getting cod "free" on xbox ecosystem will be huge for microsoft.
It's a strategy to challenge the the market leader publicly so people talk about it, sony did it with nintendo back in psone era (in crash bandicoot tv commercial and ff7 magazine advertisement), samsung did it with iphone back the in galaxy s1 era, usually this stop after the challenger get it's own style/design.
I definitely buy handheld xbox (if it priced correctly) so I can play xbox games in portable mode when I have times, and continue it at night on tv with my series x đ
It will be cool if at least the portable has the same power as the 2013 xbox one. I don't have problem if it's a full digital portable because xbox is pretty good with legacy games.
Still playing lost ruins, just defeated the second boss and got the magical flying meat for my secondary weapons, coupled with artifact that gave me 100% damage to flying weapon, I feels pretty invicible now lol.
The reason I'm back to xbox after xbox one fiasco is because gamepass looks good and xbox series s isn't expensive, so although I already have ps5, I still want to try series s. After trying the console about 1-2 month, I'm back to xbox ecosystem again
Gamepass is really great, I like that the cloud safe is free, and the console can play dolby atmos in games and netflix, so in the end I bought series x and made it my main console this gen.
That's not how to talk to your customer, the reason the game still running is because people still support it. Is it that hard for game devs to ask politely why people don't like it rather than berating their paying customer?
Bought it after I have a ps5, really liking it but sold it after 1 or 2 month, there's no way I can use this gamepass console with that amount of storage lol. The (proprietary) expansion is really expensive so I bought series x instead, now series x is my main console this gen đ
I wish microsoft release a white, discless series x though. I like the white colour of series s and it's gamepad so much that I bought the white gamepad for my series x.
Just bought lost ruins a couple of days ago, it's pretty good. Also playing castlevania sotn, dead cells, huntdown, klonoa demo, and horizon chase turbo.
I enjoyed the single player since the gameplay are great, I wish the story is told better though, like rather than audio log maybe make the marine that the chief helped told the story. And don't make player had to read the books to know the story.
The reason I pick series x rather than ps5 for my main console this gen is because gamepass is awesome and series x is the only this gen console that support dolby atmos đ
I do hope microsoft release a disc less series x since I didn't use the disc at all. And maybe non-proprietary ssd nvme upgrade like ps5.
The search function on the xbox app is garbage, I usually just search the game on google (xbox "game name") and install the game using web browser on microsoft web store.
Playing lost ruins and metal hellsinger demo. I'm actually surprised that lost ruins actually a metroidvania survival horror game, it's hard compared to other metroidvania games but I like it.
Also the game sounds effect are amazing, I have 5.1 surround and the game clearly differentiate the sound of footstep to my back left and right speaker, while waterfall sound and other environment (plus weapon) sound is in the front speaker.
I'm disappointed in metal hellsinger, the gameplay is good, the music is great but I didn't know this is a rhythm based game. I just want normal fps game with good gameplay and great music without the rhythm part đ
As an asian dude that live on asian country, I sort of don't care about inclusivity or whatever, for me it's all about the games, if the games are there, I'm in, if not, then I'm out.
The reason I bought series x and make it my main console this gen is because gamepass is awesome, and the console support dolby atmos.
Playing tmnt (of course) and river city girls since I just bought a couple of 2D games for my series x (river city girls, shantae 7 sirens, and bloodstained).
I enjoyed river city girls (silly and funny) story, upgradeable characters (moves and equipment), and cameo more, but I still like this game, if I got to gave this game a score, I think it's a 8.5
I played this game nearly 100 hours on steam (still haven't seen the second boss), it's a really addicting games even though I didn't like survival games
Nice, I do hope p3 and p4 will come to switch since portable games are best played on portable console. And it will be really cool if p5 royal has dolby atmos support đ
Making great exclusives is hard, painting controller with colours is easy, I guess microsoft choose the easy way out. And for business to berate their customers is weird, but I guess that's the state of america company right now.
Rather than microsoft destroying haters, I think it's more like microsoft berated their paying customer.
Edit: So it's only pc gamepass, not xbox gamepass or gamepass ultimate, sigh.
Granted, xbox consoles aren't officially available in here (I bought it imported) but since playstation already here from ps4 era, I hope xbox will officially sells xbox series consoles in here too.
I think we're gonna get slim revision and storage upgrade / options (like iphones), but I don't think we'll get another power upgrade like ps4 pro, not when most games still released on 9 years old console.
Besides, what are the marketing point of the new upgrade? Many people still haven't got 8K tv, and didn't care for 120hz gaming. I'm more interested in portable, steam deck like machine from microsoft.
