Looking at Turn10, it seemed that fewer people were passionate about cars than before.
The result is Forza Motorsport 2023. It has improved considerably with updates, but like 343 Industries' Halo, it seems that by the time it improved, people had already moved on.

This may have been the biggest surprise at this year's Xbox Games Showcase 2025. I'm delighted that this Xbox 360 masterpiece is making a comeback.

I understand that this is an event aimed at making it the Obsidian Year. However, I think The Outer Worlds 2 is a bit too much to be the highlight of this year.
I wish there had been a little more information about a big title like Call of Duty Black Ops 7.

Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Editions
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine
Barbie Project Friendship

These games have not been translated in my country.

Basically, it's time to play other titles.

I really wanted it, but with the next-generation Xbox on the horizon, I don't want to buy peripheral devices that may not be compatible.
I'll make do with the built-in storage.

In theory, their argument seemed valid. However, in reality, considering the decline in game quality and release frequency of Sony's first-party game studios, it appears that Xbox is in the right.

I'm a big fan of Kinect, so I really want it to make a comeback.

If it is not released to PlayStation, it will not receive due recognition. So I am in for the release of the PlayStation version of Starfield.

It's a good game and definitely an IP that Microsoft should have nurtured. They should invest more in Rare's game titles, including Banjo, Conker, Pinata, etc.

It was the best game. I cleared it with Game Pass, but I will buy the Premium Upgrade when the sale comes.

I like Indiana Jones, DOOM The Dark Ages.

It's just a shame that while Bethesda and Activision Blizzard are great, Xbox Game Studios' titles are not doing so well.

I wish XGS would bring back the glory of the Xbox 360 days.

I have played up to chapter 20 and it is the best game I have played this year.
I find it the most interesting in the series since DOOM 2016.

I liked the old days when you could customize...

I thought it was a great deal because I bought it on launch day and it's an excellent piece of hardware to play game pass

If the next generation consoles are available at the current price, I may not buy one!

I can't wait to play
For some reason, the Asian languages were postponed right before the launch and now it's summer!

We hope that Xbox will return to developing games with an emphasis on entertainment and regain sales.

Gears 3 was great in both campaign and multiplayer. Gears 2 is also great if only for the campaign.

Gears 5 is a good game if you only want to play chapter 1....

January through March were terrible, but April and May look good.

Gears of War Ultimate Edition was not translated. This Gears of War: Reloaded will have Japanese subtitles; the original Gears of War on Xbox 360 is dubbed in Japanese.

Conclusion: Xbox 360 version is still the best in our region.

I bought it on release day, but haven't played it at all, because FM7 is much more fun. But maybe I'll touch it again, just a little...

They removed Japanese language support for Gears of War Ultimate.

Once again I am reminded that Halo 3 music is the best. Those were good times...

Xbox units are not really in stock outside of the US. The decline in hardware sales is understandable since you can't buy a console that you have no intention of selling.

The concept is a great one and I like it very much. However, durability is an area that really needs to be looked at.

I don't really want to disassemble a premium product and change parts to repair it.

Personally, I enjoy using this convenient service, but I also feel that it is not Microsoft that can succeed.

They are extremely poor at expanding globally and their perception of entertainment is often out of sync with the masses.

I am glad to be able to play Oblivion again as Avowed was postponed to August in my area!
I had bought the Premium Edition of Avowed, but I probably won't play Avowed anymore ...

Now that Avowed's translation has suddenly been delayed for six months, I fear that it will be 2026 before I can play The Outer Worlds 2.

There are many IPs that I love at Microsoft, but it seems to me that until Microsoft gets its creativity back, it should not dabble too much in areas such as movies.

Halo had so many influences that it is safe to say there is no FPS in the modern era that has not been influenced by Halo.
There is hardly one that does not employ things like automatic health recovery and a two weapon limit.

It was a mistake to close a large number of studios and treat the games as if they were not axed.

I would have welcomed it if they had focused on entertainment while keeping the games as strong as the Xbox 360.

Halo Infinite definitely cost a lot of money and was a huge flop. Otherwise, the 343 executives would not have been fired en masse.

I would like to see them consider cross play, etc. starting after the new Halo reboot. (If you're asking me what I can expect from Halo Studios right now, I'd say no...)

The Xbox 360 library is great and I still play my Xbox 360 for just that.

There were so few games translated that I hardly played any of them...

March is already over since Avowed suddenly announced in February that it would add more languages to be supported in a month's time and then postponed it.

Here's hoping for the best.

We removed a large number of big-name games and added a few indies and in-house titles.

Most of the recently added titles are not translated, and Microsoft is clearly neglecting some regions.

They decided not to include Japanese and Korean just before the release, and secretly said they would add them in an update a month later. There were no guarantees for those who bought the Early Access rights.

And a month later, no further news.

Most of those games are not translated and can only be played in English-speaking countries.

More than half of this month's Game Pass titles are not available in Japanese.

Reminds me of how cheap Recore was.

Perhaps Microsoft doesn't think it will sell that well. Because this game is clearly not meant to sell games.

Super Duper Graphics
Raytracing (Xbox Series X|S)

Yes, we can trust them.

Monster Hunter: World was released on Xbox in Japan last year. It was simply sold as a carryover bonus for Monster Hunter: Wilds, and there was no way it could sell well.

The input method used in RandnetDD and the Nintendo 64/GameCube versions of Animal Crossing was the fastest way to input commands using a game controller.

@everynowandben It would be a cheat in a competitive game ...

If you look at Game Pass Ultimate, 10 games are removed and 4 are added...

I used to like UBISOFT games, but now I am not interested in them. So I don't think it is a good deal.

In recent months, we have clearly seen a decrease in game pass budgets with games leaving and games being added to the game pass.

The future of Xbox Game Pass is overwhelmingly lacking in casual games.

Games like Just Dance, Rayman, and Rabbids appear to be needed. (If only Microsoft would budget for Crush Bandicoot and Banjo...)

I keep waiting for an update to add languages!

I don't have a gym near my house, so when I exercise, I sometimes play with the Xbox 360 Kinect. Of course, Ring Fit Adventure on Switch is another option, but it is not a replacement for Kinect.

We need ideas like Sega's SEAMAN to fake the macabre.
