IronMan30

I appreciate the timeline, so I'll have a better idea of when to continue playing this game.

I stopped playing in light of the news that there will be major updates in the next year.

I would buy physical games if my kids were older, but I really can't justify it. But I've probably bought about 8 or 10 games, this year. On Xbox, alone.

Oddly enough, PS YT hasn't uploaded the trailer for Blade but Xbox YT has...

I don't think it was a good idea on his part to post that. I like Starfield, but people who don't are just as valid as I am.

Mine was also Starfield. We're practically twins.

Lack of city maps was probably the most baffling part of this game, to me.

This also sort of makes me want to hold off on playing much more of the game. I'd rather play it with the updates to get the full experience, as it were.

188 hours this year. I rarely get to use my Xbox, and it shows. Lol

But 52 of those hours were on Starfield, so I have gotten some quality time in on that game.

Side note: How are people sharing the entire screen? Is that a PC-only thing?

So why was there never a review for this game?

I expect this to be Xbox exclusive. Major W for MS.

Jordan Peele and Kojima are involved, so I can't wait to see the game in action.

Welp, time to prioritize beating the first game.

@Martsmall the thought has crossed my mind.

Wish they were open to everyone, these are incredible deals.

Rockstar did a good job of making a virtual Florida.

I've been enjoying it a lot, myself.

@x3King84 yes, exactly. They keep reducing points for each task. Might as well just do it in one fell swoop and get it over with.

This might be older news, but in the US, they changed the way you get points for doing a mobile search and got rid of the MS Edge points.

It's very easy for gamers to forget that MS is a software company, first. They keep doing software company things, so people shouldn't be surprised when they hear comments like these.

Thanks, but the best way to thank us is with games.

It's hard to feel much about this game since we know basically nothing.

I'll go ahead and assume it's over with. Meh

Xbox One should have been an easy slamdunk for MS but Mattrick decided he wanted to get fancy and missed.

I bought Quantum Break and Control Ultimate Edition. Whenever I get around to beating those, I'm sure Allen Wake 2 will be on sale for cheap enough for me to buy it.

@GamingFan4Lyf I chose it for that and accessibility, if it makes you feel any better.

I'm not 100% surprised by this, but it probably should have been on there in lieu of Resi 4.

Xbox 360 because exclusives were still a thing. In what I consider to be the traditional sense of the word, anyway. Xbox Series X is really good, but the software has taken longer to get going than previous generations (thanks to real world conditions).

This is extremely disappointing.

I don't see myself getting it, since you asked.

I've never played a Starcraft game (I'm not that into RTS) but going into a new genre sounds interesting. Let's hope something materializes from this...

@Strawbnyan I'm also primarily a Switch gamer, but I have built a solid Xbox library and generally like the people here so I come to this site for Xbox news.

@Strawbnyan I really don't care, I just knew that my comment would upset some users on here, specifically the ones who insist a certain other console has the best games on the planet yet rarely seem to actually play their video games. Most of which I ignore, but they tend to show themselves on articles like this, where a game actually has better performance on their least favorite system (that most normal people won't notice anyway, like 95% of other video games).

That PS5 SSD, amirite.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Just put old MW2 on Game Pass Core and I'm set. I can dream. Okay?!

I'm more interested in new games, but I'll take a remake here and there.

You know, if MS stopped here, it wouldn't upset me...

@GamingFan4Lyf Starcraft Ghost? There's a title I haven't thought about in ages. It would almost be Xbox's Metroid Dread moment if they really released that game.

Please, let the door hit your ass on the way out.

I know that isn't the saying, but Kotick earned it.

Eh...this is one I don't see happening.

Skylanders would be a nice revival but we'll see if that really comes to fruition. Still waiting for Banjo-Kazooie (yes, I bought Nuts & Bolts, twice if you count Rare Replay) and Conker...

My only minor gripe (and it is more minor than it sounds) is the lack of mini-maps.

I started it a week ago and I've been loving it. Every choice feels meaningful and the questlines are excellent.

@GamingFan4Lyf @InvaderFromSpace right, that's what I figured. And, after reading Wikipedia it's basically what I gathered. Thanks for confirming.

So was Cyberpunk ever actually bad or were most of the complaints for the console versions centered on the game not working on consoles?

Conker's Bad Fur Day and Banjo-Kazooie, for me. We're already getting a new Perfect Dark, so no complaints there.

MS already said during the X1 era that they'd "use the cloud" to increase the console's power, so this isn't 100% shocking.

Not surprised about the Nintendo bit, but I don't see them selling anytime soon.

I would like all of this to happen, but I don't think any of it will.

pretends to be shocked
No way!

I like it, quite a lot.
