IronMan30

@NEStalgia Ubisoft said something along the lines of "launch games will cost $60" to imply that could change. Don't be surprised when more publishers follow suit and games cost $70.

And I would be very surprised if EA wasn't among the first. Then again, they do love their microtransactions, so they might not feel like they have to...

Honestly, I expect third-party games to cost $70 for current gen games. Once Sony set the precedent, I knew others would follow. This may change for Activision since they're going to be MS, but others will charge more whenever possible.

Barely played this on X1, but I'm liking it so far on XSX. It's hard to deny that Ancient Egypt is a cool setting, in the first place.

Well, time to download this to finish the achievements portion of my weekly set.

I'm just glad this is at a decent hour.

That guy has some decent videos. One of the few consistent uploaders out there.

Also, I've tested it out. It's been so long since I played on X1, I forgot how it compares but it's nice on Series X. It feels slightly surreal to say that when the console is still fairly hard to find.

Avowed is one I'm looking very forward to because ES6 is a ways off.

Very nice. Can't wait to play this version!

So stupid you need to have those games or game Pass to complete this. Looks like no bonus points for me. I guess the consolation is points are generally easy to earn. 🤷

Well, time to download.

Bought this a while back. I plan on playing it after I finish Gears 5.

Yep, that's a DS phat. Anyone who bought that is a real one.

It's fun to see all of the competitors with each other's consoles and hanging out. At the end of the day, they like video games as much as most people who are into it.

I pretty much agree. I'm glad someone who gamers actually listen to said it.

I was about to give up on this one. Thanks!

I'm not 100% sure, but I think I got 575 points out of this because they changed it after I already earned 500...

Beat the first game and loved it. Hope this one turns out well.

That reminds me, I still need to get FH5. 3 was really fun and I haven't played in a while.

On the topic of the article. While I wouldn't mind if MS and third-parties stopped making X1 games, it doesn't matter much to me but I guess I'd rather they drop it.

@Rural-Bandit yes, more storage would be amazing.

@Rural-Bandit I feel like Series X is good for my purposes. I had no issues with X1 since I didn't have a PS4 to compare it to on third-party games. I don't own a PS5, so that is not an issue for me.

If that happens, I'll do what I did last gen. Stick with my current console. As others have said, though, I doubt this is accurate.

Gears 3 and Star Wars are a tie for me, but I voted Star Wars. I really wish MS would go all out with hardware bundles on the XSX once they can normalize production.

Wonder how that patch is coming along.

I just can't wait to see it. I loved Jedi: Fallen Order. It was such a good game.

I figured it'd sell well. It's a multiplat that has a lot of great reviews.

I have nobody to blame but myself for reading his rambling.

I rely on Xbox mainly for third-party games. For that, Series X has served me well.

Let's not kid ourselves, they knew this wouldn't go over well. I don't really mind because I have a lot of Xbox games to buy and play, but not everyone games like I do.

Undeniably bad news, but I can live with it because I still have Xbox games that I want to buy in the meantime.

That reminds me, I need to finish Nights into Dreams.

I'm happy with the Nintendo one but this is pretty nice, too.

Edit: Feels weird saying this on an Xbox site, but here we are...

Okay, I'm listening.

I believe they'll deliver.

@suikoden I would try it if I had GP. Sounds like a decent enough game now that I've seen more reviews.

Between this and NL, I believe this review is accurate. Too bad, I had high hopes for this game.

Hmmm...Dtoid gave this a good score so Idk what to think. Lol

Fine by me, it's past due for publishers to really support the current MS and Sony consoles.

I'm just ready to see more of this game. Hoping it can scratch that ES itch until 6 comes out.

I hope it's as good as last year's show. That was, imo, MS' best E3 ever. Sure, this isn't E3 but it might as well be.

I May get one of these, but I own one-Fourth of them.

Okay, that was forced.

Really hope if one happens, it's not Sony or MS. Honestly, I'd rather they just stay as they are now.

I'll wait for the show to get really hyped but I hope this is good news.

Well, I didn't get Yoku on Switch so I'll take this one. Good month for that, alone.

I'd love to see an ES 6 teaser and perhaps an old IP from Rare get a new entry. Maybe Conker's Bad Fur Day? I can dream...

Also, Avowed would be nice.

I'll be shocked if this doesn't go through. Joe Biden is all talk.

Can't wait for not E3!

Hey, MS said they wanted this game to last a while. I doubt anyone assumed this is what they meant, though.

It has outsold PS5 in that time frame in Europe and NA. I wonder if they start reporting unit sales.

I'll save everyone a reply and say I actually doubt it.

I mean, I'm not too bothered but more would be nice. Once it ramps up, we'll forget about it.

My two favorite consoles are on top in units and dollars. Kind of weird to see.

@Grail_Quest I've owned one PS console and haven't bought one since. Really not my thing.

Gaming has grown on the whole, so this is pretty cool. Hoping it outsells the 360 in the long run, though.

I'm not complaining since it's free. I hope they leave ads out of this. Or at least intrusive ones. And honestly, I kind of like the sound of this. Could be a fun mix up.

Now let me go get a Pepsi as I snack on some Doritos. Don't ask me what I'm trying to say, I don't know.
