@Atreus97 Learn to call spade a spade and always demand better from these companies. It’s cuz of blind toxic fangirls like you who come here right-away to defend their favourite overlord that these huge corporations get away with so many anti-consumer malpractices. Honestly it’s not the fault of PureXbox to point that out.
I can confirm this on Amazon.in. Definitely a great move by Phil since I have mostly seen Xbox One S than any other consoles around my neighbourhood past generation. Huge fan following of couch FIFA.
Looks like Jim Ryan wants that sweet Gamepass money. It’s like when you can’t fight them, join them! Now waiting to see reactions of those butthurt fangirls and the biased gaming journalists.
You previously confirmed ray tracing (and NVIDIA DLSS) for the PC version of Dying Light 2. Which effects will be ray traced, specifically? Do you plan to use any other DirectX 12 Ultimate features (VRS, Mesh Shaders, Sampler Feedback) in Dying Light 2?
Tomasz: All the effects mentioned, i.e., shadows, AO, and light reflections, e.g., from the player's flashlight. We're also experimenting with Nvidia to expand the effects base.
Ray tracing is a great technology. We are exploring new possibilities related to DX12 Ultimate, such as VRS. Mesh shaders are rather a matter for the next project. DL2 will continue to be developed for a long time, so the results of our research will also be visible after the game's release if they significantly affect the quality of the game.

1. It’s not a specific site for Xbox as they allow SSO on all the 3-4 fansites.
2. Why are we talking about some numbers here? It’s not even about that. “Almost”, “2%” - these numbers are still significant enough.
@UltimateOtaku91 Well it’s obvious that not all polls are the same. Some vote on the last option for their hidden agenda while other polls totally deserve them.
@UltimateOtaku91 It’s a whole new different API and software backend logic altogether. System level changes always have go through rigorous load testing to prevent loopholes and bugs. You’ve no f’kin idea don’t you? 😂
@gollumb82 I think free-to-play games don’t require any form of subscription anymore. As for games with paid multiplayer, I think Microsoft should make them free like for PC.
@UltimateOtaku91
1. Halo’s lore and universe definitely way bigger than those two in sheer depth of story, characters, universe and lore. If you are not into Halo’s lore then you are having even the half of it’s experience.
2. No one can be that dumb to think that an acquisition at the level of 7.5B$ can be possible to do only in few months. It probably started even before Starfield was announced. Starfield like most other games is developed on PC. So it’s entirely possible there’s no PS version for that game and also Jim Ryan has confirmed there’s no contract yet.
3. Yes R&C is a kiddie game (although looks impressive) and doesn’t have the same fan appeal like other behemoths.
Maybe if you leave behind your hatred and bias against xbox in pushsquare then you will be able to think more realistically.
@StonyKL
Deathloop - Coming to gamepass anyway. Waiting to see the XGS logo though.
Kena - Just like the other Xbox 2nd party titles that have been announced last year which will also hit gamepass this year.
R&C - More like a kiddie tech demo can’t compare with behemoths like Halo Infinite and Starfield. Also Forza Horizon 5 is also rumoured to release this year.
GoW 2 and HZD 2 - These are the only true contenders although Halo by itself has way bigger universe and lore than those two combined. Also chances of Halo Infinite and Starfield making it to this year is way more likely.
Looks like Square Enix didn’t want to take any chance this time. 20M gamepass player base to the rescue yet again! Let’s hope their game servers are able to handle so much traffic day 1.
Other issues will be easily resolved soon by firmware updates. It is actually the best option right now for a 99$ wireless gaming headset. No wonder it got sold out so fast.
@UltimateOtaku91 After Tomb Raider, he has stopped doing that for big AAA exclusives. It’s a short sighted approach altogether. Just make it a true exclusive instead if you have all the numbers.
@Snake_V5 Yo do you really want to start with how many times his lies and fake industry sources got caught red-handed and debunked? 😂
Just because you have hate and bias against Xbox platform doesn’t automatically makes all those lies wash away! All these scared fanboys who are not really invested in Xbox platform but still come here in fear of what Microsoft is up to next. 😂🦄🤮
According to insider Jez, it looks like Microsoft is planning some incredibly impressive exclusives and acquisitions with big third party studios down the line which will be mind-blowing if it ever comes to fruition.

@TrueAssassin86x @StonyKL That may be the case because backcompat non native titles don’t perform as good on PS5 as on Series X.

Re: Industry Insider Expects Bethesda's New IP Starfield To Launch This Year
@UltimateOtaku91
1. Halo’s lore and universe definitely way bigger than those two in sheer depth of story, characters, universe and lore. If you are not into Halo’s lore then you are having even the half of it’s experience.

Xbox best platform ✅

Re: Journalist Spots Reference To Virtual Reality In Latest Xbox Update
@John117 AFAIK 60fps is illegal for VR standards, minimum is 90fps to get it approved for health safety.
Re: Journalist Spots Reference To Virtual Reality In Latest Xbox Update
Let’s hope they absolutely kill it with the Xbox VR/MR headset as well since they already have experience in making the best-in-class Hololens.

Re: The New Xbox Wireless Headset Comes With 6 Months Of Dolby Atmos

Re: Xbox Is Reportedly 'Heavily Involved' With Big Third Party Studios For Future Exclusives
@Jacko11 No I guess he’s against big AAA timed-exclusives/feature exclusives. I don’t he’s ever against full third party exclusives.
