My Gamepass Ultimate ends in Feb 2024, I will NOT be get Gamepass any more, I'd rather buy 1 game I want as opposed to pay for 500+ games I don't want.
"from a revenue standpoint" (1) Revenue, does not deduct any costs or expenses associated with operating the business. (2) it's possible for a company to generate revenue but have a net loss.
I gave it (F) Just had nothing for me Only 1 game to me looked interesting Clockwork Revolution but I'll need to see more. (1)Most of the stuff was on last years showcase (2)Still not much Gameplay (3)Lot was 2024 that will turn into 2025
People are happy about this? All they did was. 1. Make the Tiles smaller and add 2 extra tiles 2. Move the ads and tiles down a little bit So impressive.
Wonder why Microsoft are 3rd place (Of the big 3) in Video Games. Not making any Video Games is a good start.
Starting to think Microsoft wont make any more games till they get activision blizzard. The "we can't compete argument" only looks good when they're in last place.
@Martsmall As ads make up for everything Xbox is doing. Have you seen Nintendos Home screen? Maybe if they made some games they would not have to rely on ads
@Martsmall Well I dont like it. 2 less tiles on dashboard, Who the hell suggested that? All this forcing Gamepass down my throat, Think I'll be canceling my 2 Gamepass Ultimate subscriptions.
@Martsmall Did you not see the video? I was talking about how they have sandwiched recently Added to Gamepass between Dashboard and the pins, You know when you scroll down. Plus only 5 Tiles now? last i checked we had 7.
Its not out till next year. They could make it even more of a disaster, they're clearly not listening to feedback.
User Interface Has become Advert Interface
Improvements? I Don't see any
"They're listening to the feedback" Obviously NOT
This is Garbage. 2 less Tile. Gamepass Before pins.
Next Dashboard Update Will be just Adverts and Gamepass
How can Nintendo in 2006 Have a better Dashboard than Xbox in 2022
Anyone that uses Xbox rewards app will know that most recent used tiles will probably be, Xbox rewards, Edge, Bing, Gamepass, Store. I hate most recent. Just let me choose what Games/apps i want on my home screen its not difficult
This is horrible and really not needed, Try to justify the buy out its just getting cringey. For all the reasons Microsoft list as this been good, I'm sure some could make twice as many reasons why this is bad.
"Greater competition in traditional gaming, where Sony and Nintendo will remain the biggest" Had to laugh at this.
@NEStalgia I still think having the option to remove or turn off QR is Good for people that want to. Options are always good.
I Can see QR is Important to you and You value your time. I played Borderlands 3 on Xbox one befor I got Series s and it took like 6 minutes, I admit It was a wait but alot of games have reduced load times now. Cant imagine what you was like previous generations if you think 1:30 is long.
I hope they fix it for the people that use it and also give the option to turn it off.
@NEStalgia I didn't realize some games took Half an hour to get playing, Longest loading game i've played is Borderlands 3 and it takes 1 min 30 sec. Forza horizon 5 is less than a min.
I Could see it been useful for games that take ages to load (If/when Quick Resume even works)
A Option to just remove/Turn off Quick Resume completely would be Good.
With the faster load times, I just dont think Quick Resume is needed. but I dont switch from game to game every 5 minutes. Probably why i dont see the benefit.
I assume ALL AAA games are Garbage until proven otherwise. Works very well. Find my self playing and enjoying Indie games more and more. If its on Gamepass might give it a go.
@KilloWertz But if i Mute my TV I cant hear my game audio. Just xbox been trash. Maybe with the faster boot up the noise will also be faster so wont hear it aslong. Thanks for your help tho.
Only 25 Main Missions, The Visuals Look bad, too much pop-in.
comparing this to some games over the last 10 years and it seems to be lacking. £60 Is a big ask. £15/£20 Is more reasonable.
