I don’t use my Series X for tv much, but my Series S is my bedroom streaming box in addition to playing games.

PGR is great and I’d love to see it come back, but I feel like your understating how great FH5 is. That’s certainly an opinion you’re entitled to, but it’s a fantastic looking and playing game. Both should be able to exist.

A little tone deaf towards the hardcore fans of Xbox. We have very little in the way of Xbox 1st party content and pretty much nothing this year. I know any criticism of Xbox management is met with rage from most Xbox fans, but I’m not a fan of his statement considering we’re two years in and he seems fine with the fact Xbox studios can’t get a game out. More of the “just wait ‘til next year” for fans and he’s hyping the competition’s games. Maybe I’m just old fashioned.

Love the console, I don’t like the small storage. I have a portable USB, but have not bought an SSD since we never got cheaper options or 3rd party as had been expected. I will eventually upgrade the amount of SSD storage like I did with my Series X, but factory expansions are still way too expensive. I could upgrade my PS5 by 2 TB for the same price as 1TB on Xbox.

I was excited but think I’ll wait for a sale. The reviewers who are in to this type of game seem to like it, but I feel like it will be at least $10 cheaper soon.

Played Shredder’s Revenge a great deal and also the Naraka: Bladepoint beta.

@Microbius there are some of us that get nothing. Ever haha.

As usual, nothing. I think I spend enough with them they know I’m a sure thing. 🙄

Have it for PS5. Absolutely recommend trying it.

Never a dime from Xbox.

He’s not wrong.

“We hear you. We hear you. It just doesn’t matter.”

*WERE. Were. After today there’s not much appeal for somebody on the fence. Not this year anyway.

I’m very happy with my Series X. Any revisions that make things more efficient are good for Microsoft I guess. Not sure I’ll buy a “Pro” or Slim though unless we get significant performance increases. My Series X tucks nicely behind my TV the way it is. The PS5 is awkward and ugly to me, but unless mine dies I’ll very likely just stick with the launch model for this gen. I don’t play it as much as it is. I think it will be enough for the better part of the generation.

Have this on Switch. Would love to see it on Xbox!

It’s BS. Some games have great versions on the S. It’s lazy devs.

I have both an S and an X, live them both. The S is capable but a lot of these devs are just not giving it any real work.

Definitely WWE 2K22, along with Shredders, Tunic and Mario Kart 8’s new DLC. I also picked up Chorus (Chorvs) this week for $20. Gaming is so good right now!

I’ve not finished 4 yet, but these are fun games. GamePass is really giving us some good stuff this Spring.

@Nightcrawler71 same here! Really enjoying it!

@Tasuki same for me.

Bet a dollar Shredders is delayed for a fourth time.

Played a good portion of the 10 hour trial and I like it quite a bit. I’m more an arcade racing fan and I usually enjoy Codemaster’s games, and this is no exception. If you’re not looking for sim this is a fun game. I’ll be getting it very soon.

I’ve played some of the demo and it’s really great. Don’t write it off.

@PhhhCough agree with this 100%. Demos should be the norm.

F for me, but that’s just me. Looks like things are really dry until Redfall/Starfield. I’d unsubscribe but I’ll go back and play some old games with FPS boost.

@Tharsman facts. We’re getting mostly 2nd and 3rd tier games while Sony has LONG timed exclusives. And of course they moneyhat to keep some games off of Xbox altogether.

It is what it is at this point. They showed what and who they valued today. It’s a two-way street.

Sony fanboys see this as a huge win for PlayStation, and a big L for Xbox.

I’m not going to lie, as a 20 year Xbox fan who stuck with them through the lean years, this feels pretty crappy. They seemed much more worried about placating Sony fans than taking care of their own customers. I’m sure most will disagree with me, but that’s just how it feels. I’ll take the flaming.

Seems like Phil always wants to play nice, but Xbox and its fans never seem to get it in return.

To this day I can’t understand the rage and hatred for Xbox.

Timesplitters 2, Future Perfect, Crazy Taxi

@GuyinPA75 SAME

Xbox is still digging itself out of a hole from that time. They had so much momentum and squandered it. Phil was the better choice.

@Chaudy facts. It’s only bad when Microsoft wants to do it.

Xbox fans are our own worst enemies sometimes. Get a brilliant game and find every little thing and reason to hate it.

Forza Horizon 5 and Project Wingman.

@InterceptorAlpha I have one as well, but I have yet to find confirmation that it does. Ace Combat 7 works perfectly with the HOTAS. Hope this one does as well.

Immediate download last night. Played the first mission today. Was so excited to see this.

Yay. Another delay. Was looking forward to playing this over Christmas.

Tried, could not get it. It’s being scalped like everything else.

It’s fun. I was waiting for it for months. It’s not perfect, but really good with a lot of potential.

Smooth as silk.

I will say this would be a great controller for a lot of Indie titles. Mighty Goose, Flynn, Huntdown, Blazing Chrome, etc.

@Rural-Bandit same. 25 years in and I still don’t like PS’s stick placement.

That’s cool, Sony fans don’t get Halo Infinite, I’ll just play that.

@SpacemanJupiter if it was a PS exclusive, they’d be frothing at the mouth for it.

Can’t wait for Back 4 Blood. The beta was a lot of fun.

Had to do it. Preordered.

This is perfect for my daughter and her Series S. I suspect a lot of parents and those who use the S as a secondary/GamePass console (say PC or PS primary users) will appreciate a cheaper SSD option. 512GB doesn’t seek like much storage, but it more than doubles the Series S capacity and puts it into PS5 factory internal storage amount range. My kid is probably like a lot of others in that she has her ‘social’ online games she plays with her friends plus a few newer release favorites. Nearly 900GB will make her happy (plus she has a 1TB portable HDD).

As a bass fisherman, definitely want to check this out.

I have it on my Dreamcast. Fantastic fighter.

@Gr81 agree. My daughter has a Series S, and this would be perfect for her. She mostly plays a few games online with her friends and this would be a good size/price.
