I tried it and wasn't into it because of the survival aspects. Now that there is a mode where that is scaled back could bring me back in. Get my space itch before Starfield.
He even said that we are the 4th or 5th in publishing and that this deal is going to make them more competitive! I'm excited for what is to come for Xbox!
Have an Elite V2 and have put hundreds of hours into it since getting it last Christmas. Zero issues. It has ruined me. I don't think I can use any other controller anymore lol
Meh. Wasn't that what Anthem was suppose to be? I wish we had more serious protagonists. Iron man will be the typical quippy, sarcastic, joking hero we see in every other game now a days.
With access to Xbox infrastructure via the cloud on a phone, PC, or directly on a T.V., I imagine Playstation only players will be able to reasonably find a way to play COD without owning a console. I think it will be a console exclusive in a few years. Can't let the investment into the cloud be for nothing.
Playground Games is notorious for NOT showing games before they are ready. If Fable is ready to ship, we won't find out until 4 or 5 months before release.
@FraserG Movement and gameplay is similar to the Sniper Elite games (minus the sniping), but I really enjoy the 1930's Egyptian theme. DLC would also be worth it in my opinion.
My battery life lasts so long. I really like not having to worry about batteries. If the battery sucked, i would want batteries, but not for this controller.
It really is not that funny. If you thought the twins in Borderlands 3 were funny, you will think this game is hilarious. Really did not like the vibe of the game, even if the gameplay was good enough.
It was Todd Howard himself that announced the Starfield release date. Each studio head should be aware of where their games are so this doesn't happen. There is a good reason Bethesda got bought. It is because they pull crap like this or release crap games.
The combat and camera looked a bit janky. It looks like most time has been put into the atmosphere and design. Hopefully it plays as well as Arkham Knight.
Looks blocky, but the mechanics are good. If you are an achievement hunter the 1000 gamerscore is pretty easy. The game does well with branching pathways and secret routes to spice things up
I think a Marcus Fenix collection is on its way before Gears 6. Like others have said: Redfall, Starfield, and some Game Pass announcements from 3rd party developers.
I strongly recommend Strange Brigade. It is made by the devs behind Sniper Elite/Zombie Army but Strange Brigade just has the coolest 1930's Egypt vibe

Re: The Xbox Live 1.0 Replacement Is Out Now, And It's Adding 3 More Games Next Week
Star Wars Battlefront 2 was sooo good. I will definitely try this out!
Re: 'Evil West' Runs At 1080P & 30FPS On Xbox Series S, 4K On Xbox One X
I was on the fence. Now it is a wait for a sale. Hopefully they can add a 60fps option.
Re: EU Commission Employee Frustrates Xbox Fans With Ill-Advised Call Of Duty Comment
Just because he isn't part of the decision, that does not mean he doesn't influence decision. Regardless, it is very unprofessional!
Re: Remedy Officially Announces Control 2, Confirmed For Xbox Series X|S
Gameplay and setting were amazing. Story was dumb

Re: 'Evil West' Looks Like The Cowboy Vampire Mashup We Didn't Know We Needed
@ZYDIO If you have it, I wouldn't mind teaming up. It is much more manageable in Co op. Gamertag is Ghanaviking
Re: 'Evil West' Looks Like The Cowboy Vampire Mashup We Didn't Know We Needed
If this looks good to you, try Remnant: From the Ashes. Great game.
Re: Interview: 'High On Life' Dev Talks Xbox, Game Length And Living Up To The Hype
Can't wait to get a break from all the serious games I typically play. Some good humor and good gunplay is just what I need.
Re: Xbox Insists It's 'Not Taking Call Of Duty From PlayStation'
As long as I get it on Game Pass, I don't care if it stays on PS. I can't lie and say I don't enjoy the whining though
Re: N64 Classic 'Glover' Is Coming To Xbox, Along With Many Other Old-School Games
Never heard of any of these.
Re: Xbox Games With Gold For November 2022 Announced
Both are good enough looking for a download!
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Hints At Plans To 'Raise Prices' In The Future
Not surprised. Big sub services are very expensive to maintain. I hope that if Game pass price goes up, the cost to play online will disappear.
Re: Xbox Exclusive 'Redfall' Looks Spookier Than Ever In New Gameplay Trailer
Looks like a First-Person State of Decay with vampires. I am all about it
Re: Gotham Knights Divides Critics, Lots Of Different Review Scores
Hopefully it drops in price for Black Friday. I would pay around $50. $70 seems like a lot.
Re: Talking Point: How Often Do You Actually Buy Xbox Game Pass Games?
The Surge 2, Remnant from the Ashes, Strange Brigade. I bought the DLC when they were on Gamepass and bought the base game after they left.
Re: No Man's Sky Brings Its Waypoint Update To Xbox Game Pass
I tried it and wasn't into it because of the survival aspects. Now that there is a mode where that is scaled back could bring me back in. Get my space itch before Starfield.

Re: EA Is Officially Working On A New Single-Player Iron Man Game
Meh. Wasn't that what Anthem was suppose to be? I wish we had more serious protagonists. Iron man will be the typical quippy, sarcastic, joking hero we see in every other game now a days.
Re: EA Sees 'Tremendous Opportunity' If Call Of Duty Goes Xbox Exclusive

Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Favourite JRPGs On Xbox?
Code Vein was a fun Souls-Like

I want to try Valheim but don't have a pc
Re: Digital Foundry Says Halo Infinite Split-Screen Is 'Excellent', 343 Declines To Comment
If I was an employee at 343 and all that worked got cancelled by upper management, I would be pissed.

Re: Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (September 8-11)
I thought Hunt: Showdown would come to gamepass eventually. Now I can try it after holding off for so long.
Re: Xbox Unveils New Home UI For 2023, And Your Feedback Is Wanted
I would like to be able to change the sizes of tiles. I want to see my background as opposed to having my screen so cluttered.
Re: Lots Of Games Are Reduced By 90% In Xbox's Super Saver Sale
@FraserG Movement and gameplay is similar to the Sniper Elite games (minus the sniping), but I really enjoy the 1930's Egyptian theme. DLC would also be worth it in my opinion.
Re: PlayStation Boss Heavily Criticises Xbox For 'Inadquate' Call Of Duty Offer
Pretty sure Spiderman has existed for longer than Call of Duty and Xbox won't be getting that anytime soon!
Re: Lots Of Games Are Reduced By 90% In Xbox's Super Saver Sale
Strange Brigade is so good. Also, Kingdom Come and Everspace are both worth the price.
Re: 'Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty' For Xbox Game Pass Looks A Slashin' Good Time
Wasn't too interested til I saw it was coming to Game Pass. Nice!
Re: Xbox Elite Series 3 Controller: Five Features We'd Like To See
My battery life lasts so long. I really like not having to worry about batteries. If the battery sucked, i would want batteries, but not for this controller.
Re: Xbox Unveils Schedule For Thursday's Gamescom 2022 Livestream
I really wanted 20 minutes of gameplay of Redfall. The more I see and hear about that game, the more excited I get.
Re: The Lords Of The Fallen Unveiled For Xbox Series X|S With Stunning Trailer
Lords of the Fallen was not good, but The Surge and The Surge 2 were a ton of fun. Hopefully this is a big improvement on the first.
Re: State Of Decay 2 'Forever Communities' Update Arrives Over 4 Years After Launch
This game is one of my favorite because of how well it balances the base-building, action, and overall atmosphere.
Re: Soapbox: We Need More Light-Hearted Spin-Offs Like Immortals Fenyx Rising
Glad that other people liked it, but I found the humor to be incredibly not funny to the point that it made the game substantially worse.
Re: Talking Point: Xbox Series S Owners, Are You Happy You Skipped Series X?
I would be more tempted to buy the Series S if it had the same amount of storage as the X. It is just not enough to have multiple next-gen games.
Re: Rumour: Immortals Fenyx Rising Might Be Coming To Xbox Game Pass
It really is not that funny. If you thought the twins in Borderlands 3 were funny, you will think this game is hilarious. Really did not like the vibe of the game, even if the gameplay was good enough.
Re: New Redfall Trailer Provides Brief Look At Skill Trees & Loadouts
Looks more interesting than Deathloop imo.
Re: Lots Of Games Reduced By 90-95% On Xbox This Week (June 21-28)
Strange Brigade is awesome. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is also a good deal. I think I might try out Hunt: Showdown
Re: New Final Fantasy 7 Game Revealed For Xbox, But It's Not 'Remake'
Final Fantasy is overrated
Re: Halo Infinite Nameplate Changed Due To 'Offensive And Hurtful' Term
A mistake was made. Apologies were extended. Let's move on.
Re: Evil West Unleashes Hell On Xbox This September, Watch The New Trailer
Reminds me of Remnant: From the Ashes.

Re: Another Seven Games Will Leave Xbox Game Pass Soon (May 10-15)
I love Remnant. I bought it and its DLC. Unfortunately, this means I can't play with my game pass friends anymore.
Re: Deals: The Force Is Strong With This Star Wars Sale, Now Live On Xbox

I think a Marcus Fenix collection is on its way before Gears 6. Like others have said: Redfall, Starfield, and some Game Pass announcements from 3rd party developers.
Re: Multiple Games Reduced By 85-90% On Xbox This Week (April 26 - May 3)
