@Fiendish-Beaver I agree, xbox needs a Platinum equivalent. And also something for earning 100%. And divide "folders" for main game and dlcs, I'd also like one for mp/online achievements. Add a system where common/easy are worth minimum and it would be really awesome.
Yeah. The PS showcase was great for Xbox. I wonder if any of these games will come to Gamepass. A lot of what was shown yesterday were the kind of games I would love to try out but not buy full price.
@The_Pixel_King Nice. The devs recommend playing Hellblade with headphones, so if thats possible you should tried it. Really enhances the game even more imo.
The industry really need to stop announcing games years in advance. They should start promoting once a game goes gold and they have a firm date. That would take some pressure of the devs as well.
@The_Pixel_King Hellblade is definetly worth it. Kind of a short game and combat is a bit repetetive (but not to a point where it gets annoying). Story, sound, vo, music and visuals are top tier. You wont be disapointed.
@Lup I'm right here with you. I've played all these games except Death Loop and Redfall and I didn't really enjoy any of them. I plan to give Redfall a proper shot after Ghostwire though.
I cant wait! Im a sucker for showcases and updating my wishlist. But this year, my biggest hope (on top of games) is the unveiling of a Series X Starfield edition matching that sweet controller they showed earlier.
My rule of thumb is to check Powerpyx walkthrough and if it says there some of the trophies are broken I'll wait till it's patched unless I want to risk it anyway (like I did with Burning Shores but that was just a DLC).
Switch: Xenoblade 3 Future Redeemed. It is sooo good! 10/10. Perfect. Seriously. PS5: Nothing, obviously. Series S: See PS5. Uncle Rex got my full attention.
Series: Halo Infinite and Ghostwire Tokyo, loving it so far! Switch: Fire Emblem Engage DLC. PS5: Just platted Hogwarts Legacy. Waiting on Burning Shores!!!
I don't see the problem here. The settings are there for a reason, use them. If something feels off, that's the first thing I check. I do it all the time. GoWR felt horrible to me until I messed around in the settings a bit, same with HFW and Gears 5. It's no big deal. Good advice in this article though, appreciate it.
Like someone else mentioned. A discless X or a smaller X would be welcome, maybe. But first and foremost they need games and they need to market them properly.
Cool promotion but what I really want is the option to buy these editions in the store like you could with the Halo one. And I hope they make one for Starfield as that would be a no brainer for me.
It's funny. I bought the Series S and a 1tb card thinking I would fill it with games. Which I did in the beginning. But now I only keep Halo Infinite installed and one more game. Finish that game before I install a new one. Oh, and I have completely stopped buying games (I only bought 6 in total). I only use Xbox for GPU.
Series S: Halo Infinite (Season 3 is so good!) Switch: Nothing (waiting for Fire Emblem Engage DLC and TotK) PS5: Hogwarts Legacy. (I'm also considering buying Stray and/or Tchia.)
@Krzzystuff I agree. I also liled the new lone wolf mode they dropped now. If they keep innovating and rotating like this this season will shine all the way through.
This season is by far my favourite so far. Good new maps and modes. No problem finding games and the weekly challenges are very doable and doesn't feel like a waste of time.
@abe_hikura sooo... it took me 62 attempts but I just beat him. Been close sooo many times this week but when I finally did it everything just clicked and he only hit me twice. Really proud of myself and wanted to let you know. Thanks again for your advice. Have a good weekend.
Ive stayed away from Soulslike but because Wo came to gpu I decided to give it a go and I absolutely love the challenge. Im stuck on the first boss but I am determined to beat it. Very satisfying combat.
Series S: I decided to give A Plague Tale Requiem another shot and I'm absolutely loving it. Ps5: Nothing Switch: Xenoblade 3. Gonna mop up the last side quests I got left before the final wave drops later this year. After that, ng+ run.
3600 in a year is impressive. I wonder how much you will produce if Xbox actually release any games. Lol. A whooole lot of overtime Cheers and happy new year!

Re: Talking Point: Would You Like To See More 'Spin-Offs' From Xbox Game Studios?
I'd love Gears Tactics 2. Perhaps a Halo 3rd person game. But what I really want is a DLC for Halo Infinite to wrap up the ending properly.

Re: Ubisoft Plus Launches Today On Xbox, Full Lineup And Price Details Revealed
I have no faith in this price tag at all.

Re: Bethesda's Stunning Redfall Xbox Series X Console Is Up For Grabs
Cool promotion but what I really want is the option to buy these editions in the store like you could with the Halo one. And I hope they make one for Starfield as that would be a no brainer for me.
Re: Why We're Excited For 'Ghostwire: Tokyo' To Hit Xbox Game Pass This Week
I'm really looking forward to playing this game. Gonna skip all the busywork and just focus on the main story. Can't wait!

Re: Ghostwire: Tokyo Preload Now Live Ahead Of Xbox Series X|S Release
I'm looking forward to this game. Cant wait!
Re: Talking Point: Xbox Series X|S Owners, How's Your Storage Looking In 2023?
It's funny. I bought the Series S and a 1tb card thinking I would fill it with games. Which I did in the beginning. But now I only keep Halo Infinite installed and one more game. Finish that game before I install a new one. Oh, and I have completely stopped buying games (I only bought 6 in total). I only use Xbox for GPU.

@ParsnipHero Yes! It's intense. Love it!
Re: Halo Infinite's Free Limited Time 20-Tier Event Pass Starts Today
@Krzzystuff I agree. I also liled the new lone wolf mode they dropped now. If they keep innovating and rotating like this this season will shine all the way through.
Re: 'Tchia' Could Be Heading To Xbox Following Impressive PS5 Reviews
So, back to Tchia. I can't believe the game isn't on Switch. Seems like a perfect fit over there.
Re: Halo Infinite's Free Limited-Time 20-Tier Event Pass Starts Today
This season is by far my favourite so far. Good new maps and modes. No problem finding games and the weekly challenges are very doable and doesn't feel like a waste of time.

Re: Reaction: Should Xbox Produce A Mid-Gen Upgrade If Sony Launches 'PS5 Pro'?
I would rather have more special editions like the X for Halo. I hope they do that for Starfield.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of 'Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty' On Xbox Game Pass?
@abe_hikura sooo... it took me 62 attempts but I just beat him. Been close sooo many times this week but when I finally did it everything just clicked and he only hit me twice. Really proud of myself and wanted to let you know. Thanks again for your advice. Have a good weekend.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of 'Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty' On Xbox Game Pass?
@abe_hikura yeah, deflecting is definetly important. Thanks for your advice. Gonna try beating him again tonight!

Re: New Info Suggests Xbox Developer The Coalition Has 'Cancelled' Two Games Recently
This is good news in my opinion. I love when a company has full focus on one project.
Re: 'Xbox Developer Direct' Event Date, Start Time & Where To Watch
All I want is some release dates. I only activate my game pass when Halo drops a new season and that's saying a lot.
Re: Former Halo Developer Blames 'Incompetent Leadership' For Layoffs At 343 Industries
This isn't a surprise at all. Bad leadership can ruin everything.
Re: 343 Announces Free Limited-Time Halo Infinite Event, Starts Next Week
Nice. Something to do while I wait for season 3.
