I don't mind if those games were exclusive coz I don't care about those games. I only care about JRPGs. As long as it's available on PC, I'll be happy. I do hate exclusives tho, when it's by third party companies sticking to 1 platform only.
I think steam reviews are more reliable than that where anyone can just leave a bad review, even if they've never played the game. On steam, you at least know they've bought the game.
Quick resume hasn't worked for me in ages. Everytime I turn off the console by the switch. Turn it back on, quick resume isn't there. It used to work before when I first got the console.
I hope black desert comes back. I might wanna play that again. I bought it on PS4 tho and own it on PC, but I made the most progress on the xbox game pass version.
@Princessmadllama That's because the lower end PC would make sacrifices to quality or performance. They can't do that on a console. On consoles, it would need to look good and perform well. If it doesn't, no one would buy the game.
I'm sure it depends on the severity of the crime. Like if they broke the rules and it's only a minor offence, then yeah, 8 strikes would be ok. And if it's a really bad offense, I'm sure xbox will give them a year ban straight away. Tho I can't imagine what someone could do that would be such a bad offense in a video game.
I remember buying a physical copy of this game when it came out and then found out it was a pay monthly game. I didn't know that before buying. So I returned it. It became free to play after, but I never really tried it.
Yeah I think its because of the series s. Seems like it can't handle split screen maybe. Why can't they just disable split screen only on series s and then add it later when it can?
I think maybe they should have an option to stream games without having ultimate. Like for people who don't have an xbox, but want to stream game pass games on their phone or other streaming device. A cheap subscription for cloud streaming only.
I'd like to feel the haptics for myself before I can say anything. But I think it would be nice. I have a dual sence controller, but I use it on PC and haven't played a game that supports it yet.
Well since I already have a series x with a disc drive, I wouldn't need another one. I rarely even use this one. Tho I think they should have released a discless version from the start.
@BeerIsAwesome I thought it was because xbox didn't want crossplatform back then. That was why I thought it never came to xbox. When it came out on PS3 and PC, playstation strongly wanted to support crossplay. Xbox did not at the time. I'm not sure how playstation feels about crossplay now, but it felt like they've been against it a little after the PS4 launched.
@BeerIsAwesome I think the reason they scrapped the eso monthly subscription was because of xbox. I think they wanted xbox to not require xbox live. But that didn't work out, so there was a change of plans.
@BeerIsAwesome I had ESO a couple years ago on PS4 and you needed ps plus to play. I think its only f2p games and games with a subscription service like ff14 that don't require ps plus.
ESO did plan on releasing with a monthly subscription, that is why there's mentions of it saying ps plus is not needed before it was released. But they scrapped that decision and went with only needing ps plus and xbox live only for consoles and nothing for pc. And the monthly eso subscription became optional.
@Utena-mobile it didn't work for me. It says I've had a free trial already. The only free trial I had was when I signed up. So not sure why it doesn't let me.

Re: Oh Look, Starfield Is Getting Review Bombed On Metacritic
I think steam reviews are more reliable than that where anyone can just leave a bad review, even if they've never played the game. On steam, you at least know they've bought the game.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Confirmed For Xbox In 2023, Series S Version Ditching Local Co-Op
@Princessmadllama That's because the lower end PC would make sacrifices to quality or performance. They can't do that on a console. On consoles, it would need to look good and perform well. If it doesn't, no one would buy the game.
Re: Phil Spencer 'Would Love To Find Solutions' For Xbox 360 Games Being Delisted In 2024

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Confirmed For Xbox In 2023, Series S Version Ditching Local Co-Op

Re: Phil Spencer Responds To Concerns Over New Xbox Enforcement System

Re: Forza Motorsport's Multiplayer Looks Awesome, But Split-Screen Didn't Make The Cut
Yeah I think its because of the series s. Seems like it can't handle split screen maybe. Why can't they just disable split screen only on series s and then add it later when it can?
Re: Talking Point: What Would Convince You To Use Xbox Cloud Gaming More Often?
I think maybe they should have an option to stream games without having ultimate. Like for people who don't have an xbox, but want to stream game pass games on their phone or other streaming device. A cheap subscription for cloud streaming only.
Re: Talking Point: Should Xbox Make A Revised Controller With Haptic Feedback?
I'd like to feel the haptics for myself before I can say anything. But I think it would be nice. I have a dual sence controller, but I use it on PC and haven't played a game that supports it yet.
Re: Video: Here Are 20+ Fantastic-Looking Single Player Games Still Coming To Xbox In 2023

Re: It's Finally Here! The New Xbox Dashboard Has Arrived
PlayStation has had the game art in background for years, also it plays it's theme music along with the art.

Re: Xbox Adds More Perks For Game Pass Ultimate Members (July 2023)
Crunchyroll - "not valid for previous trial users in the past year."
But what about people who had paid subscription for years and never a free trial?
