@PsBoxSwitchOwner I'm saying the feature is in the Minority. Please don't mention EG, this is an Xbox centric site. I'm allowed to support Xbox here finally. Also Split is cool, but it's not needed by the masses. Also people seem to forget it will come, chill. It will be coming for BG3 and FORZA MS from what I can see
@PsBoxSwitchOwner it's not vital, we need the game shipped and working online, millions will be playing online dude. Split screen can wait, that is easy to see.
@Kevw2006 No it's hasn't, they need parity, that's all it is. Devs need to figure it out and ask MS for guidance. And send in the Ninjas.
They cannot and will not make exceptions Kev, that is plain to see. It is a good move and important. Best for all involved Xbox users get it at the same time, this has not happened in the past and we don't want staggered realises at all. Would be daft! It might happen one day, but for now it's a contract clause etc.
@Kevw2006 It's not unfair, it's great customer service. These are the rules, they have been in place for years for the Series S and X, it's harsh but makes perfect sense, Series S and X owners are in the same boat and want to enjoy the game at the same time.
@Kaloudz that's a shame, should have invested, S is great, for first timers to Xbox or a 2nd console, but all Xbox nerds should be on the Series X if possible. Save up my friend
@Kaloudz Surely you have a Series X my friend. If so get one! I blame the devs here as in, they need more time etc, to work this out. Series S hasn't had these issues before, runs other more demanding games fine!
@Fiendish-Beaver Don't think it's the Series S at all, it will work, just think it takes more time, Series S is weaker yes, but it runs games that are much more demanding for sure. Dev issue here for me!
@Bruvas Oh I came over a few months ago, it's much more friendly here. The hardcore fans on EG for many Sony are horrendous towards me. Not sure why. It's draining. Here is way more fun
@Dan1283 what a massive over reaction. we have game pass, a far superior service, and at great value. Why are you mentioning PS Plus when Xbox will get 25 games plus too. Chill out!
@iplaygamesnstuff it still works by the way just less 3:2 which is still amazing. I'd urge everyone to stack 2 years now or 3 and get the ratio. Easy to do.
@InterceptorAlpha I gotta ask what the hell are you playing on Xbox. You should have stacked Ultimate and then you can have it all with nothing to worry about. I really don't get why people haven't done this. I pay nothing for years now!
@InterceptorAlpha game pass is amazing. It makes Xbox better. It's not going anywhere. Over 30 Million users. Why haven't you stacked until 2026. You had time and warnings. I really don't understand how people can just ignore it. It's extreme value. I pay nothing until June 2025. I have Unlimate.
@InterceptorAlpha I don't think you understand what is happening. This is better than standard Gold. I've seen you post a few times now. You get all the perks of gold with 25 games off the bat plus more to come. It's great for new comers.
@InterceptorAlpha this isn't a mess at all. It's what all Xbox fans have wanted. Get rid of Gold and have it all in one simple subscription.
Games with Gold had been pretty poor for years now. Game pass is better. This is good value too. 25 titles off the bat is great for new comers and more.
What a crap show, why bother, absolute BS from the FTC, they lost they need to get over it, just delaying tactics, will end up costing them more money and more Egg on their faces!
@Solidchief yep people can't accept positive XBOX and gaming news. Very odd. EG and the Toxic regulars are kicking off. Thankfully mod team is already removing some of the crap they post.
@KilloWertz seems you're not a fan, when you've ignored great games, Pentiment and Hi Fi Rush, Planet of Lana and more. Grounded etc etc.
Xbox is not one game, and it never will be. Also Nintendo hardware is woeful, they are only top because of a few games. Their online and MP experience is last currently.
@Darude84 You get a Heart sir. Of course. I play a lot of online games and active large Triple A with a few party games along side. So I need instance access etc. But yeah hope that helps explain it. I get what you mean one and done games, More a Sony thing. I'm playing for long online games that last for years. I need them ready to go, as I only play 2 hours a night, will be even less in September as my first child arrives haha!
@Darude84 I don't think you realise, If I'm playing Halo and BF2042 most nights, that's 2 large games already.
Add in Forza H5 and FIFA23 and crappy COD. plus smaller Double A games, I need them and indies. I don't want to install or move big games to play. I have a large collection, I want them all ready and organised. Most users will need the expansion especially with Starfield and other big hitters arriving etc.
I have 3 external hard drives attached, as I have my 360 and BC games on different ones. Plus I download games ready.
I need an expansion card badly, but I can cope of course. Having my top 10 games on the Internal is fine, but a new game comes along, boom I'm struggling for space.
@FraserG I I more meant the Amazon delivery. I would go for a WD one as it's cheaper, but that's direct from website, using 10% code which isn't too bad.
Will try and do a comparison price check soon. I do need one!

Re: Forza Motorsport's Multiplayer Looks Awesome, But Split-Screen Didn't Make The Cut
@Titntin it's coming, you don't need this feature off the bat at all.
Game looks amazing!
Re: Forza Motorsport's Multiplayer Looks Awesome, But Split-Screen Didn't Make The Cut
@Cherip-the-Ripper Promised miles back, so not really that bad, Halo should have it, but it's not a massive miss for me.
I have a small box room, no space for people, online gaming with 9 people in a party is far better

Re: Forza Motorsport's Multiplayer Looks Awesome, But Split-Screen Didn't Make The Cut
@somnambulance weird take, it will be there at some point,
99% of people will be playing online.
This shouldn't be turning you off the game, it will come.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Xbox Version Seemingly Pushed To 2024 Due To Series S 'Technical Hurdle'
@Kaloudz Black Friday I got the LG C2 42 for about £700 I was so chuffed, John Lewis and amazing deal.
Best tv ever owned and all it does is play my Series X. Stunning!!
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Xbox Version Seemingly Pushed To 2024 Due To Series S 'Technical Hurdle'
@Kevw2006 Eh? That was a dev mishap, this is different.
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Xbox Version Seemingly Pushed To 2024 Due To Series S 'Technical Hurdle'
@Fenbops You've miss understood why they do it.
Parity etc, it's vital and important. They aren't going to make an exception.
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Xbox Version Seemingly Pushed To 2024 Due To Series S 'Technical Hurdle'
@Fenbops you're in the minority, it's customer service etc.
It's a great policy and will be respected.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Xbox Version Seemingly Pushed To 2024 Due To Series S 'Technical Hurdle'
@InterceptorAlpha it hasn't at all.
Not to this extent at all. Come on now! Most games are fine on it!
99%, this will work, I bet ya!
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Xbox Version Seemingly Pushed To 2024 Due To Series S 'Technical Hurdle'
@Fenbops needs to be launched at the same time.
Xbox is right!
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Xbox Version Seemingly Pushed To 2024 Due To Series S 'Technical Hurdle'
@Kaloudz Surely you have a Series X my friend.
If so get one!

Re: Forza Motorsport Leaked Images Show Off Gorgeous Ray Tracing Features
@Titntin I assumed you missed the walkthrough they did, they've released quite a lot already.
Re: Forza Motorsport Leaked Images Show Off Gorgeous Ray Tracing Features
@BRT15 GT7 has some dodgy visuals too on many tracks I've seen, like the cars are floating etc.

Re: Xbox Games With Gold For August 2023 Announced
Makes sense, get it done and work on Game Pass and more, Games with gold had it's time, it's now done! Which makes sense!
Re: Xbox Games With Gold For August 2023 Announced
@Dan1283 what a massive over reaction.
we have game pass, a far superior service, and at great value.

Game Pass overall is the better service Dan!
Re: Xbox's New Game Pass Tiers Are Causing Confusion Around Online Multiplayer

Re: Xbox's New Game Pass Tiers Are Causing Confusion Around Online Multiplayer
@TJ81 I think you've read it wrong.
Re: Xbox's New Game Pass Tiers Are Causing Confusion Around Online Multiplayer
@iplaygamesnstuff umm you can stack it for 3 years. Or you could easily. Mines until 2025. So don'tet lapse. Sort it now.
Re: Microsoft Confirms Xbox Live Gold Is Being Replaced This September
@GuyinPA75 game pass is gold. So yes there will be deals.

@Somebody GwG has been poor for years though. This is better for me.

I've seen you post a few times now. You get all the perks of gold with 25 games off the bat plus more to come. It's great for new comers.
Re: Microsoft Confirms Xbox Live Gold Is Being Replaced This September
@ChromeMud how is it a poor offering. You're getting more than just gold. Gold is gone. This replaces it for the same price with better games.
Re: Xbox Explains How Games With Gold Titles Carry Over To Game Pass Core
@InterceptorAlpha this isn't a mess at all.
It's what all Xbox fans have wanted. Get rid of Gold and have it all in one simple subscription.

25 titles off the bat is great for new comers and more.
Re: Xbox Explains How Games With Gold Titles Carry Over To Game Pass Core
Looks like a great move to be fair. If that catalogue grows then it's already amazing value.
Re: Xbox 'Game Pass Core' Reportedly Replacing Xbox Live Gold This September
@GADG3Tx87 the loop is still active. If you're quick. My friend has his sorted until 2026. Mine is sorted until 2025. The value is still fantastic.
Re: Xbox 'Game Pass Core' Reportedly Replacing Xbox Live Gold This September
@Grumblevolcano it's great news. We don't want gold anymore. Game with gold is daft. Imagine having game pass and live in one. Will be perfect.
Re: Xbox 'Game Pass Core' Reportedly Replacing Xbox Live Gold This September
@HonestHick why cancel game pass. Just use it and get games on cd keys cheaper.
Re: FTC Appeals Court's Ruling Permitting Microsoft's Acquisition Of Activision Blizzard
@Sol4ris Jim is clueless, he's come out looking the worst out of all this, lying and scheming, piss poor indeed.
Re: FTC Appeals Court's Ruling Permitting Microsoft's Acquisition Of Activision Blizzard
What a crap show, why bother, absolute BS from the FTC, they lost they need to get over it, just delaying tactics, will end up costing them more money and more Egg on their faces!
Re: Xbox Wins FTC Court Case As Judge Denies Preliminary Injunction
@pip_muzz thanks dude good to know
Re: Xbox Wins FTC Court Case As Judge Denies Preliminary Injunction
@Jaxx420 I'm a fan of Xbox!
Re: Xbox Wins FTC Court Case As Judge Denies Preliminary Injunction
@Solidchief yep people can't accept positive XBOX and gaming news. Very odd. EG and the Toxic regulars are kicking off. Thankfully mod team is already removing some of the crap they post.
Re: Xbox Wins FTC Court Case As Judge Denies Preliminary Injunction
Apparently according to a certain User over at EG I'm not welcome at PX? Never read so much horse plop in a while.
Pleased the deal has gone through. The amount of Salt in certain places is crazy.
Let's hope we can all move on now!
Re: Xbox Wins FTC Court Case As Judge Denies Preliminary Injunction
About time, and great news for all gamers I feel, there's a lot of salt over at EG, which I find odd.
It's good for ABK as they need help, re-shape and re-form.
Get it done so we can all move on!
Finally, excited for Gaz sauce video!!
Re: The Xbox Live Gold To Game Pass 'Conversion Ratio' Has Gotten Worse
@KilloWertz seems you're not a fan, when you've ignored great games, Pentiment and Hi Fi Rush, Planet of Lana and more.
Grounded etc etc.
Xbox is not one game, and it never will be. Also Nintendo hardware is woeful, they are only top because of a few games.
Their online and MP experience is last currently.
Re: Xbox Game Pass $1 Deal Reintroduced For New And Returning Subscribers
but the Ratio has changed too, so confusing, so positive news then negative news etc! haha!
Re: The Xbox Live Gold To Game Pass 'Conversion Ratio' Has Gotten Worse
@KilloWertz This has been one of their best generations for me, struggles? Seems a bit harsh, been a strong year already.
Re: The Xbox Live Gold To Game Pass 'Conversion Ratio' Has Gotten Worse
It's still worth stacking 36 months if you can now guys, get it done!
