It's clear it should have been dropped from last gen consoles but the reality is on PC it is a very good game and I see no reason why the true next gen versions won't be either. Although it's already pretty good on Series S/X

Maybe its just me but I don't get the point of cosmetics in an fps amd being a bit old school I just play these for fun rather than any apparent progression

Cool, I'll be giving this a go at the weekend

I'm very excited for many of these games and for fps boost too

@Xiovanni not exactly, Sega wanted to partner with them and make the Xbox backwards compatible with Dreamcast games. In the end Sega's next arcade machine the Chihiro was based upon the Xbox for games like Outrun 2.

As for the Dreamcast Microsoft's main involvement was having a version of Windows CE to run several games, though the operating system was only ever on the disc

Definitely gonna play Scarlet Nexus, I tried the demo and it was great. Might try a few of the others but not Avengers, I played the Beta and it was boring frankly

It's almost like Resident Evil didn't have an iconic You Died screen 15 years before Dark Souls was a thing 🤔

I'm playing on PC so it makes little difference to me but no matter what Sony fans say, this was a huge acquisition. Fallout 4 was my most played game on the PS4, whilst Doom 2016 and Dishonoured are up there amongst the very best games I played last gen and easily as good as any exclusive. Just playing Deathloop and it's brilliant, I can't wait for Starfield next year

@UltimateOtaku91 realistically their capabilities are around a 2060 maybe 2060s at best, this is mainly due to AMD's rather lacklustre RT capabilities. For example in Control using next gen console settings (basiclly low), or as close as I can get as there as RT reflection resolution is lower than on PC, my 3070ti will run the game between 80 and 90fps. I had a Series X earlier in the year before upgrading my PC and I was a bit shocked how far behind they are with RT

@UltimateOtaku91 the recommended specs on PC are a 3080 at 4K30fps and RT on, or a 3070 at 1440p 60fps and RT on and neither of these consoles are anywhere near those cards capabilities.

I do think they should offer an RT mode even if its 30fps but I don't think Ubisoft games in general are well optimised

Neither, games like the Quake remaster have helped me rekindle my love of fps games that I lost due to games like these. I'm far happier playing the likes of Ion Fury whilst waiting for Turbo Overkill and the Powerslave Exhumed remake

@StylesT and both are huge wastes of space

I'm assuming there's going to be a native Xbox One or Series version of Blood Dragon then?

Recently Ubisoft seem to be making their dlc more interesting then the actual game

What did they expect? A minimum effort port that's taking years and presumably to be sold to even existing players yet again. Rockstar were once amongst the best gaming had to offer, these days I couldn't care less about them

Sadly too many Playstation fans blindly support them and even make excuses on their behalf, such as the cost of adding rumble to a game or higher fidelity graphics. Clearly forgetting that PC has had better graphics for many years without charging extra for their games, a game costs the same whether I'm using an RX480 or 3070ti.

I've been a console gamer gamer a very long time but I'm happy that I'm not gaming on the PS5 whilst Sony are trying to rip off their customers

I mean he quite clearly said that Starfield was an Xbox exclusive so you'd have to be pretty thick to take that as meaning may come to PS5

I was a huge Atari fan as a kid but the VCS and that walking corpse of a company are absolute joke and insult to what that company once was.

Seriously just buy a Series S, it's much cheaper and considerably more powerful than this and you can emulate all the Atari games on it anyway

Modern gaming on social media really is a ***** show at times, from deluded fanboys arguing over the number of pixels being drawn to entitled little pr***s like that one above. By all means have critiscms of games, more so after you've actually played them but vote with your wallets if you're not happy about a product

Original Quake is awesome but I'd have to say Quake 2, especially now with the RTX version as well

It's to do with the minimum order of discs from what I've seen, Sony requires 1000, Nintendo 5000 and Xbox 75,000 meaning stuff like this might not be financially viable for them

Haha that's pretty cool, I've got a few variations of this on PC including ray tracing. I do find it funny that Nintendo have basically ported by far the worst version of this game in the last year or so

@NEStalgia I quite enjoyed Quake 3 back on the Dreamcast, more so when using mouse and keyboard and yeah I'm definitely loving this late 90's PC gaming revival

@Deadcow that would be awesome, I've been playing Quake 2 RTX on PC and it looks absolutely amazing

@NEStalgia yeah I've seen reports of ESRB ratings now and I agree legacy games like this make sense as multiplatform games. I never thought about it only being on Sega and Nintendo and oddly enough they were the 2 versions I played growing up.

Awesome news and I'm glad that such a game isn't exclusive, new titles sure but classics like these should be widely available

I'm not sure what the expectation was for this game but those numbers seem reasonable so I'm surprised it isn't profitable. At the end of the day it launched in a pretty poor state and with it's always online requirement even locking out solo players was not a good look.

@BAMozzy yeah I saw that and its pretty interesting, new drivers can increase performance on PC and as these consoles get ever closer to basically just being PC parts I can see how something similar could happen. Particularly with Xbox using DX12 and RDNA2, leaving room for optimisation in both since launch

I've tried this and there's a retail mode version as well and it runs brilliantly, if ever anyone wants an emulation box to put under the TV the Series S would be a great option

Vice City easily, San Andreas had technically better gameplay but the atmosphere, music, story and cast were at their peak for the series in Vice City

Great news, Control is one of the best games of the last few years and a technical marvel too, especially on PC with high end Nvidia GPU. I can't wait to see what they do next

@Blessed_Koz in the here and now perhaps the One X is a decent option but in a year or 2 that's going to have very little or no support. Even on a 4K TV Hitman 3 looks great on Series S and runs significantly better then on One X, with Cyberpunk also performing much better on it. The only real advantage One X has is on Xbox One games but cross gen and next gen it'll be left far behind

@Rural-Bandit personally I'd say 48inch is too big to be playing comfortably at a gaming desk

Nobody can deny that as a piece of technology its incredibly well made and a ridiculously cheap price for what it is, an equivalent PC CPU alone would be that price

Hardly surprising, they would gain nothing from having Gamepass on their systems and only Microsoft would benefit

One of my most anticipated games this year, the Gamecube games were excellent

I guess it's not going to be that "enhanced" then if a big open world game like this is running at 4K60FPS

@Doctorwhoooourgh they should do an update for PS5 and sell it to them for £10, they seem to like that

Twitter and other social media is just a mess of fanboy bulls**t at the moment, with either side picking on tiny things that nobody cares about. It's like those idiots criticising how many of the buildings look up close on Flight Simulator when it literally has the entire planet in the game. Or those pointing out the one rubbish looking Bush or texture in Horizon Forbidden West or Ratchet and Clank. Fanboys are looking at the one or two things a game doesn't do perfectly Instead ot the many may things they do incredibly well and all without somehow realising they can just buy the other console and play those games anyway

Shame it's useless to me as my car has its own and connecting my phone only allows Google maps as an alternative

The Gamepass versions of several games are lacking compared with their Steam counterparts, not least because you have little customisation as the files are hidden on your computer and locked out even when you do find them. Frankly I hate it and I just buy the games I want from Steam rather than use Gamepass

@abe_hikura it took days for mine to show

Useful to know, I just picked a landmark or airport nearby and flew there

@TheIronChimp I'm going to give that a go

That's a good month, I'm interested in playing all 4 and I can't think of the last time I've said that for either service

@The_New_Butler even at those numbers I suspect it would be close to profitable, the 500 million number quoted would be enough for 41 AAA games to be made every month. So clearly it doesn't need to be anywhere near that

I'm not sure math's is his strength, 500 million subscribers would pay for 41 $120 million games per month

Yeah I set these to install but as said above, I wish I could do it from the main Xbox menu

Well I've had quite a lot of fun with it so far, did the obvious and check out my work and home and went to the Pyramids, all before flying out of Sydney and landing in New Zealand. Might have to get a flight stick for this

Who knew they'd simulate the delays too

@Nightcrawler71 @PapaGlitch utterly ridiculous, what's the point in pre installation if we still have to install a massive patch?
