Has your opinion changed since January 18th?
It might not seem like it, but it's already been 10 full days since Microsoft announced its intent to acquire Activision Blizzard for a little under $70 billion, and we've learned a fair few things about the deal in the days since.

Talking Point Will Call Of Duty Become An Xbox Exclusive In The Future?
It's up to Phil & Co
And breathe! Today's news that Microsoft is purchasing Activision Blizzard has got us all flustered here at Pure Xbox, and although we know some of the details of the acquisition already, we've still got tons of questions that are being left unanswered — or vaguely answered — for the time being.

Talking Point Is Forced Cross-Play On Xbox Becoming A Huge Issue?
Cheating, cheating never changes
Cross-play was supposed to usher in a friendlier, more collaborative era of online gaming. PlayStation and Xbox players could finally unite regardless of console, and PC players could get in on the act too. However, it's not really played out that way so far, especially when the PC community is factored in. Reddit,...

Starfield? Elden Ring? Hogwarts Legacy?
Xbox undoubtedly had a fantastic year in 2021 — Xbox Game Pass enjoyed its best 12 months in existence, the likes of Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5 lived up to expectations, and the Series X and S continued to receive great reports from fans and critics alike.

Poll How Would You Grade Xbox Games With Gold In 2021?
Has it been a good or bad year for GwG?
Microsoft recently unveiled the final batch of Xbox Games with Gold titles for 2021, so this gives us a good opportunity to look back on the past year of the program and ultimately give our verdict on the 12 months as a whole. It's fair to say there's been some disgruntlement about GwG throughout the year,...

Talking Point What's On Your Forza Horizon 5 Number Plate?
Hope you're keeping it clean!
You know what we really wanted to pick for our number plate in Forza Horizon 5? I.P. Freely. Yeah, we're immature like that (and big Simpsons fans).

Talking Point What's Your Most Anticipated 2022 Video Game Release?
It's a big year ahead
Arguably, 2021 has been a bit of a quiet year in terms of major new game releases. If anything, it's been a time for indies to shine and for the next-gen systems to push out some new, nifty features.

Talking Point What’s Your Scariest Video Game Moment?
Camp fire stories
There's something different about playing a horror game rather than watching a scary movie. Being in direct control of the action and physically having to push your character forward is a daunting experience, putting you in the director's seat, rather than simply watching the action unfold on screen. Knowing the horror won't happen...

Talking Point Is Xbox Missing Out By Leaving The Superheroes To PlayStation?
What do you think?
Following Sony's double punch of Marvel's Wolverine and Spider-Man 2 last week, some Xbox fans have felt left out of the comic book universe.

"To have a beginning you need to pick a moment..."
We were presented with the disappointing news earlier this week that Halo Infinite won't include either campaign co-op or Forge at launch later this year, with both features set to arrive as seasonal post-launch updates.

Talking Point Which Game Has The Best Photo Mode?
Snapshot!
This week we've been jumping into the Xbox Series X version of Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, and while it's been great to experience the game again, it's been just as satisfying playing around with the game's photo mode.
