Halucigens

Anyone that is truly upset about this really needs to find some other hobbies. Xbox is a huge game publisher now with the addition to ABK. Makes sense to reach as many people as possible with their games.

I played racing games for two months straight with EA WRC and FORZA. Going to go back to them when their is some more content. I really loved Forza but I had to put away my steering wheel for the xmas tree.

Don't care. Send them to switch and playstation if their is a market. They bring their game to PC and Steam as well.

I love sea of thieves. I have so many hilarious and fond memories playing with my friends and meeting people in the game. Love that they continued to support it and add on to the game. I played the closed beta and to see where it is now is amazing. I’m glad they give new stuff to old and new players.

I can see it working well. You can already find servers with controllers only. They have the new friendly realm. They have guilds now too. Game is a blast and if people want to enjoy it on their console of choice and Xbox can make it happen it all good to me. They already bring games to pc day one. They’ve talked about their interests in game pass on competitors..

Bring it everywhere if it works well on the hardware. I don’t care about first party exclusives. If there is a home on pc, Nintendo or Sony then bring it there. I get it day one on game pass. They can pay full price.

Been playing through TOEM for my daily achievement quest. Mostly Fortnite. Been having fun playing duos with friends. Also enjoying the Main Stage they added. Just beat the festival pass. Grinding the battle pass and I’m at almost 90.

Fun game. Always liked doing a run here and there every few weeks.

I was paying for game pass through reward points for years. It got me into the ecosystem and not going to end my game pass ultimate subscription any time soon. Rather ditch so many other subscriptions then GP. I liked the game pass weekly with try a game. Most of the time I just did the quest and moved on but once in awhile it would get me into a new game. All good, things change.

Seeing the ending to Starfield. Laughing with my buddy called red fall lafder and moon walking around. Getting behind my sim wheel for Forza.

Yeah it's definitely a bummer especially for such a long game. I'd probably give up if I put over 10 hours and the save vanished. I remember wiping memory cards back in the day because all my siblings had our own cards. If you swapped on some games while they were still inserted they would corrupt the memory card. Also saving and loading where exponentially worse on n64 and ps1 so we would watch tv while things saved and loaded. Incidents occurred which usually meant you moved to another game.

Hoping hi fi rush gets art direction. Forza should take racing/sports and possibly accessibility. Great year to be a gamer.

Surprised AoE didn’t get a nomination for bringing two RTS to consoles that work very well. Also ongoing series with halo, sea of thieves, ESO, grounded and many others.

Let them make new IPs and develop the lore but have other teams help. The cooperation of Xbox and all their teams will hopefully lead to lots of games and lots of success.

I’m excited for a new class and a new story. Diablo has always been a game I’ll beat fairly quickly and go back to over the years with big new content. I can’t grind on it for days. The game is great with friends and there is a ton of different things to do.

@BaldBelper78 Call of duty rarely does story dlc. Hopefully MS can change the yearly arrival of a new call of duty. People have to realize that MS couldn’t do any work within Activision during the approval process.

@JokerBoy422 and then they scrapped gold? Complain all you want. I just see gamers being one of the biggest whiners of any hobby. It’s just entertainment. It’s supposed to be fun and we all sit here being negative and complaining. You do you but I’ll just hit the b button and exit the ad and play my game. Keep revolutionizing the world! I’ll go back to enjoying EA WRC and having a grin on my face.

People will spend longer complaining about something then it takes to just close the ad and keep living. You see this with new game pass games too. Instead of not liking a genre or art style or story implications and moving on they’ll spend time complaining and writing negative reviews about it.

I’d like bots in custom games. Been having a blast. Still have 1 1/2 single player cups to do and I have almost 100 hours in. It’s really fun online too. Wish I got placed with other wheel users though. Best I’ve placed is third on multiplayer.

Couldn’t get into destiny. I liked their work on Halo but I think they could have worked on other projects besides just destiny in the last decade.

Had a ton of fun with FH5. Having a great time with FM.

I got it on my elite. We actually had an extra xbox in my friend group so whoever got the red ring would get the extra while we sent it off.

Good patch. Only issue I’ve had where races in the builders cup don’t save twice. One stalled the game after upgrading performance on the car and the other just never saved. Been loving the game with a wheel/pedal/shifter set up.

I’d love to see WoW on consoles. I’d love a new Warcraft RTS and to see StarCraft in a third person game like ghosts

During fog, rain and nights the game looks amazing. I also drive with the hood because the driver POV got hard with so much going on. Just started shifting manual last night. Just need to get the tracks down and start moving up the bot difficulty. I'm at full FIA regulations and AI 3. Glad I invested in my wheel setup over 2 years.

Yeah I am loving it. I have a wheel setup and it’s the first game that feels properly done for it for me. It’s great you get to tweak regulations, ai for cars and assists to find your gameplay level and get better. Some minor bugs and issues.

I enjoyed my time with the game. Some of the bugs had my friend and I rolling. We called it Llaf der or laughter. Didn’t do any end game. Might go back with a map.

Haven't run into any bugs or glitches. Games been great. Glad I got the Early Access with the VIP and car packs and such.

I played for about 3-4 hours. Really enjoying my time and it's been my best experience with wheel racing yet. Really want to take these next few days off work though.

I do this occasionally if I have the day off or want to play the game after work instead of waiting another 24 hours. It's extremely easy to do.

Yeah I got it awhile back. Best Buy was doing 100 dollar gift cards for 85 for members so I picked up two and preordered Forza, wrc, endless dungeon, starfield and bought marble madness and that new jet set radio game.

I play a lot. I don’t have any children and my partner also games a lot. I work in a high stress industry and gaming unwinds me. It does pull me from other hobbies that I enjoy. I also moved away for a job opportunity and it’s how I stay in touch with friends and family.

Between Forza covering track racing in October and EA WRC covering rally racing in November, we could be in for this generations sim racing games. I just got a wheel, stick shift and pedals with a real table to mount it all too. I’m really excited.

I haven’t binged a game like that in a long time especially single player. I told my buddies 9.8 so I rounded up to ten.

9.5 for me. I just beat the game yesterday. One of the best stories in a game and my personal favorite sci fi game. Really excited for the new game plus.

I highly recommend Vanguard. I really loved that story line.

Really great work. Love the questing so far. Visuals are great love the seamless transitions from first person to over the shoulder to third person. Not a lot of negatives. Has some wonkiness and quirky design choices.

Xbox 360 was mostly for Gears of War and Skate. Series X was mostly for Sea of Thieves and Microsoft Flight Simulator.

My partner is playing solely on her steam deck. Surely an S is closely compatible. Good for Phil to communicate the negatives and the positives. I’m personally not worried because it’s not my type of game.

Delta force black hawk down was one of my first online multiplayer games on the Pc I played. Man all the custom maps, dedicated servers, clans and modes were so fun. Hopefully this will live up to my expectations.

This is the game I'm most excited for this year. Racing games are really not that fun in split screen. Already got the premium add on so I can play this early and have a sim set up. See you on the track.

Xbox is my favorite controller. Just continually progress the sticks and triggers.

Game looks great. Got my wheel set up done and been practicing on FH5 and F12022. Looking forward to this over starfield.

@Cashews wasn’t seeing it the other day. Not sure if they took it down with the new tiers coming out or if they close that loophole. How I paid for gamepass for over two years now.

Next gen for me was quick loading times.

Having a blast. I like that it's really not another sweaty PVP game. I'm level 42 with 66% story completion. A lot of interesting mechanics. Really enjoying coming home after a long day of work and killing waves of dinosaurs. Matchmaking is good, characters are fun and it's just a little japanese crazy which I enjoy. Love the boss battle as well.

@BAMozzy Just referring to this quote since the top comment referenced developers but Jim referred to Publishers. Ryan said, "I talked to all the publishers, and they unanimously do not like Game Pass because it is value destructive."

@Moonglow I’m pretty sure he said publishers. And I think he only means AAA publishers.

Man everyone generally seems so negative in the gaming community. This site used to be small and a great place to get general Xbox news. Idk wish we talked about games more. The Bethesda deal blew this place up and the Activision through it over the edge.

I use my reward points to pay for game pass. Spent 20 dollars on a black friday deal and haven't put down any money in over two years. I still think it's a great deal especially for new people to gaming or the xbox ecosystem. I rather have game pass over any streaming service.

If it was Viva Pinata with online elements I'd be very happy.
