I haven't tried it in the Fire Stick but I've had a few fire sticks in my life and they have never performed particularly well, even when using Netflix or whatnot. Just a cheap, underpowered device.
My launch original Xbox was DOA, so that was fun, but my 360, woof. My Xbox One S and Series X have been incredibly reliable devices thus far. I have a couple original Xboxes around still nowadays that still work well though.
At the beginning, Halo. Got a 360 to stay on that zone but played mostly the Wii and PS3 that gen. Bought a One S to get a 4K Blu-ray player after getting a 4K TV, then found out about the backwards compatibility and stuck with it thus far.
Company I work for has been full remote since 2020, has sold multiple office buildings, has had growth year-over-year, and makes significantly more money than Rockstar but I guess they don't own their office space and are paying for it so why not force the people in when there's layoffs industry-wide and they have no bargaining power.
I don't think making a single-player shooter "in today's market" is a bad idea, as can be shown from numerous successes in that space. But making one that is boring is never a good idea.
I bought my Xbox One S to play 4K blu-rays because my PS4 Pro didn't. Then I remembered how much I preferred the controller, then Game Pass happened, and the backwards compatibility and now I'm an Xbox guy.
Just played through the free update in 23 (using the Game Pass trial) and was pining for the days when I could take Malta through all the qualifiers and all the way to a World Cup win. It's truly a shame all these national teams are missing, as well as the qualifying stages. I would gladly pay full price for a game of just that.
To use their own game, the NBA 2K is partly designed to make more money after the user purchases it. Depending on how you play it, it is loaded with microtransactions. If you up the user base, you have more chances to get that money. The Show has seen this to be the case.
Other games without these microtransactions, of course it doesn't make sense.
If you're so miserable of a person as to the fact other people are enjoying a thing and because of it you need to post on the internet about how angry you are about them enjoying it, you should focus on improving yourself.
Enter the Matrix has not aged well, didn't seem to really know how to do dual analog sticks, but the narrative was super cool. Path of Neo plays better. Both have their strengths and are worth visiting but I voted Neo.
