19 year tenure badge on my profile.

I will not be renewing in November.

At $10 a month it was worth it. At $30? Absolutely not.

Microsoft has effectively killed Xbox to me and I'll be sure the only time I pick up anything from them is when it is on a steep steam discount.

Glad I don't have to deal with this any more.

Went to 8BitDo. TPM sticks, gyro, all while saving some bux.

Almost like when you optimize for the least powerful hardware, everything else benefits.

By order of most popular to least.

Another UE5 dumpsterfire.

Holy crap does it run bad.

Nah. Presequel was meh, Skipped 3, will probably skip this one too.

Still waiting on gyro and TMP, or AT LEAST hall effect, sticks.

Until then using 8BitDo that give me all this.

@Balie3000 Because they allowed players to take over one of the bots from the original.

And if I'm being honest, shows how not for coop the game is.

Half of the original's difficulty came from how dumb the AI is. When a human takes over, the game becomes a cake walk.

@Balie3000 No it wasn't.

The campaign is a remake of the 2003 original's, which was single player.

I thoroughly enjoyed I Am Alive back in the day.

Atari reducing IPs from Ubisoft. What a day

It better have VR support on PC.

Already locked and loaded to unlock a good portion of it when it drops on PC.

@VeganH It is a legndary warbond. $15/1500SC.

Everything else is correct though. No super store items either

Helldivers 2 and Deathstranding.

Hoping the warbond is available on PC when the first Xbox version releases.

Already grinded for the credits and medal to buy it.

Nothing is going to sell me a handheld that can't play native Xbox games.

I haven't been this excited for a Lego game since Undercover

Horizon 6 in Japan, with VR support on PC, would be my most played.

Could be the modern Midnight Club.

Prince of Persia is looking pretty nice.

Even my PlayStation controllers have asymmetric thumb sticks.

Gonna be a hard pass.

Series S once again showing it cannot carry its own weight.

720p and still cannot achieve a stable frame rate. Is this 2007 again?

Nah, because back then they didn't have framegen to rely on to on to make things worse, as it does here.

Easy skip. I have zero interest in mobile.

Tried on PC for a couple hours. Uninstalled after.

Had it since launch on PC. Have it modded to hell and back with Halo assets.

Been a great game. And arguably better at being Halo than Halo is

They would have to pay me to reinstall that mess. 🤣

Helldivers 2

The game is absolute trash on PC. So best of luck on this release. I'm not expecting much.

And still using the Godawful button placement.

4 bottom paddles or no buy.

Crossovers are nails in the coffin. Not a resurgence.

@Kieduss To this day the game still has awful issues with desync. BS like this is why.

@NeoRatt Agreed. The wife and I played through every Halo game together in anticipation of it. Just for them to say no coop at launch. Disgraceful.

No. Zero interest.

@EVIL-C Nadella is the root of all issues. Nothing is fixed until he is gone.

A remaster of the first would be great. Would skip 2 and 3 though unless they remade them to be more like the first

I'd buy a kit for this in a heart beat.

Playing on PC. Zero issues getting in and has been a blast.

Still holding off on reviews though because, you know, EA.

Fantastic game.

Would suck not being able to use all the Halo mods available on PC though

I mean, the game engine already mostly supported it.

All it needed was need was to load proper assets and it would have worked. You could already fly to other planets though.

Will be nice for it work proper.

Especially if they use the ProcGen system to creat POIs and attacks as you fly.

Will really be one more step toward being Daggerfall in space, a good thing IMO.

@darylb24 Lol. Poorly frame paced 30fps is bad enough. Dropping resolutions to lower than the Xbox 360 though is a joke. 😂

Been playing Helldivers since launch. Great fun.

The rest are kind ameh TBH.

Can't wait to see how the game is magically awesome when it drops on PS5.

I'm expecting the Series S to struggle with that 30fps, so it makes sense.

Battlefield. Not pre-ordering it because the last couple have been dogwater though. To this day 2042 is still a train wreck.

I only play Cod for four player, splitscreen, zombies. So unless BLOPS7 has this, BLOPS4 is about it for me.

Nadella hates hardware, people, and Xbox.

Done with Microsoft until he gets the ax.

No engine in the world could fix the mess that 343 Halo, including Infinite, was.

Gonna be sitting on the sidelines on this one. Gonna see how it plays before I drop money on it. After all this time 2042 is still a dumpster fire, and I honestly have no hope for this one.

Well yea. We're going to finally get content now that they will have funds from people that actually buy the game instead of Gamepass subs.

I absolutely love Starfield so I guess more content is more content.

I saw "Playstation" exclusive and was tripping because I knew I played this on PC lol.

Horray for the first paragraph.

I hope it was good.

Loved Clive Barker's Jericho, so it is nice to see him dipping back in to games.

I just quit spending money in Xbox in general.

Gamepass ends November. So I'll be done with that. Go me be weird seeing my 19 year badge go away

After which the only time I buy something Microsoft related it will have to be heavily discounted and on Steam

@WildConcept6 I couldn't care less what Sony did.

All I care about is Microsoft made both my Series Xs less valuable to me.

At this point might as well just stick to my PC since it has a BD drive.

Infinite has fine physics.

It is just the net code that sucks.

Making the largest part of the game, since they adandoned the campaign, kinds pointless.
