Re: Battlefield 2042 Draws Significant Criticism In Its Opening Weekend

TheSilverFalcon

Went from must buy from me and my buddies after watching trailer to okay lets see if they fix enough after first beta to now we're gonna wait till it gets properly fixed and buy it in a sale, shame has so much potential, but we had so many issues , crossplay didn't work , my buddies have pc's and I alone have the xsx so that was lame... Too bad...

Re: Forza Horizon 5 Players Are Finding The Game's Dialogue A Little Grating

TheSilverFalcon

Not bothered by it at all, it's a real positive vibe I get, so nope, fine by me... but level 20+ or so , didn't have that much time to play it yet, work and life got in the way, hopefully this weekend some more playtime.... but there are too many games lol.... not in the least complaining about gta san andreas being in the state that is is, completed that one years ago.... Next Space Rebels I'm intrigued by so propably give that some time.

Re: 37 FPS Boosts Added To Backwards Compatible Games On Xbox Series X|S

TheSilverFalcon

@LX_FENIX What I understand is that they use a very special technique to get those fps boost to work, they don't alter the game in anyway, just trick the game into performing better somehow. They also said that this technique basically isn't working on every game, they went out of their way for Dark Souls 3 I believe which got a special treatment to get it to work.

Re: 37 FPS Boosts Added To Backwards Compatible Games On Xbox Series X|S

@Originut @blinx01, you both are probably right, they have to get the permission from the publisher and or developer to tinker with the fps, maybe they didn't sign off on it due to the remake in development, so the remake can shine even more in comparison with the old version. But overall impressive list, got some of those old disc's somewhere in a box, time to dust them off... Assassin's Creed , Far Cry 3 and F.E.A.R for sure, original AC on 60fps could be fun again....

Re: The Xbox Mini Fridge Has Received Its First Official Unboxing Video

TheSilverFalcon

Really cool thing (pun intended)... too bad scalpers bested me in trying to buy this thing, he was noticing the 90 day limited warranty, that would never be the case in the EU, we got a minimum 2-year warranty over here against faulty products.... Also noticed that he unplugged the thing and the xbox logo was still lit.... probably some type of capacitor holding charge, but fun to see!

Re: Roundup: Here's What's Coming To Xbox In November 2021

TheSilverFalcon

Forza and of course Skyrim, still not clear as what the price will be for the upgrade to the full version of the anniversary edition, and there better be a upgrade path, as I am not gonna pay full price again for the 5th time or so, already got 4 versions of it. Also definitely gonna check San Andreas out, played it to death on the pc back in the day, so gonna be interesting how this is gonna play on the series x, after all this time.

Re: Xbox 20th Anniversary Special Edition Controller Arrives This November

TheSilverFalcon

Yeah, really tempted, but how much controllers does one need?, since the xbox one(x) controllers are compatible with current gen, we already have like 7 controllers lying around the house, really can't sell that to my wife . Maybe if I they would break down once in a while or wear down, but even my 360 controllers are still working fine, so cannot complain about the longevity of the xbox controllers so far.

Re: Sky TV Has Partnered With Microsoft To Resurrect The Xbox Kinect

TheSilverFalcon

Well, I enjoyed the kinect with my children on the 360 , we had a blast with Kinect adventures, kinectimals, fruit ninja and the like, thought the gestures were really working well. But understood why it went away... Still a huge success story for MS, who basically sold a bunch of kinect 3's to the U.S Military for like 22 Billion (Hololens)

Re: Marvel's Avengers Is Heading To Xbox Game Pass This Thursday

TheSilverFalcon

Microsoft could acquire the whole western division of SE, including crystal dynamics, there were rumours a time ago that they were looking to sell that part to Ubisoft, so if MS would close that deal, they would aquire some interesting IP, like Thief, Deus Ex and Tomraider.... which would be a nice addition for future projects, and the 'old' stuff would go nicely into gamepass.

Re: Xbox Cloud Gaming For Console Is Now Rolling Out To Insiders

TheSilverFalcon

@Halucigens Yeah, great for that too, but also my X ssd is constantly maxed out, so yeah try before you download option is really a good QoL thing while shuffling things around between my internal and external drive, or even play while downloading sounds good too.... I am in the beta insiders ring, so hopefully gonna be able to try it soon.
