Microsoft should sell limited edition wraps as well so people can buy them.

I hear this rubbish nearly every year.

It's good to know single player gaming is alive and well in 2023.
Long may it continue.

God knows how long we will have to wait for this.☹️☹️☹️

I can tell you what I wont be playing - Forza Motorsport.
I am not paying £69.99 for a new game, but that's another story.

@Dan1283 Maybe some are?
Not sure myself maybe the old ones aren't?
A 4k resolution boost would be excellent as I have a Samsung QLED but I understand not everybody plays at 4k resolution or cares LOL.

I would like to see all the COD games get a free 4k /60FPS framerate boost given time and if technically possible.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I think that thing is hideous.

@Lightning720 I can't remember the last time I bought a game on disc brand new from Amazon or second hand from CEX as I now buy my games digitally when they are on sale.
I do however, have dozens and dozens of games on disc that if Microsoft go all digital in the future I will never be able to play again.
Hopefully Microsoft will offer consumers the option of disc drive add on.

@Lightning720
I just hope this doesn't mean Microsoft will go all digital in the future, but I guess many people will say this is inevitable and "progress."

Interested in the controller but that's it.
Still find it difficult to believe Microsoft would not release a pro version of the Series X if and when Sony release the rumoured Playstation 5 Pro.
I have a Series X so why would I be interested in a disc less version of the console?

I have Forza Horizon 5 and tried playing the game at 30FPS and just couldn't do it. The difference between playing FH5 at 30FPS and 60FPS is to me night and day.

Priscilla Ricart is a thing of beauty, that is just expensive stuff.

Microsoft needs to in the future, stagger their big releases better than they do at the moment.

Maybe it's the video quality but this game doesn't much better than Forza Motorsport 7 which will be 6 years old in October.

Maybe the visuals look a bit brighter and colourful. Don't really care as I love 7 and no doubt will love this too.

That is one of the ugliest Xbox controllers I have ever seen 😮😮😮😮

Well that means jack s**t to me. Congratulations Microsoft, saving the world no doubt.

If and when Microsoft release a Series X Pro and a Series X 2 they should release each with a disc drive and without, let the market decide.
As for would I buy a digital only Series X?
No, as I use my Series X as a Blu ray player and my large collection of game discs.

It's much better; cleaner, quicker to navigate settings and other options and it seems smoother to me.

Rumours of Microsoft making a console that I read in the pages of Edge magazine decades ago, does that count?

I know wired controllers are not for everybody, but I have a Power A Fusion Pro 2 and it's excellent.
Really comfortable with rubber grips and and no lag and I don't have to change batteries.

One thing is for sure, games coming out in 18/24 months are going to look beautiful on unreal engine 5.

I have a PowerA Fusion Pro 2 controller and very happy with it.

I have tried playing Dishonored 2 and I hated every minute of it, just do not like the gameplay at all.
Played Prey 3 years ago and while it took me a bit to get into it, once I did loved it.

Nope.
Microsoft need to stop pussyfooting around and start being ultra aggressive when it comes to exclusive content and creating new IP.
Easier said than done of course.

I would love to see a Halo ODST 2.
Make it happen Microsoft.

Zero, nada, nothing.

If Microsoft released a clear green one would buy it tomorrow.

Unfortunately money is tight for me at the moment so I will comment on how the game is in about 2 years when I get it on sale.
Fortunately I have a large back catalogue!
Resident Evil 4 Wii edition is one of my favourite games of all time and probably the definitive version of the original game.

@AtlanteanMan On a similar note I would like to see randomly generated skyline and cloud formations.
Kind of sick of seeing the same skies and clouds all the time, but maybe that is not possible with current tech.

@Kaloudz Well, that didn't work out well for her when she tried LOL.

Forza Horizon 6 needs to be different how?
Easier said than done, you cannot remake the wheel.

Like my dad used to say to me, you don't look at the fireplace when your poking the fire.

If and when Microsoft do a mid gen upgrade Series X Pro they will probably announce a number of titles that will get a resolusion / framerate boost.
Depending on what those games will be I would be willing to upgrade.

What a cluster**** the Halo Infinite development has been.
Nothing more to say really.
I love the Halo games too.
How long before a new single player game?
Years probably.

Goldeneye of course, what else?
I still remember reading a lot of previews/reviews of the game before it came out.
The gaming magazines raved about the game and i remember being very skeptical looking at the screenshots and having never played a 3D FPS before.
I thought it can't be that good...how wrong i was!!!

Slightly disappointed the game isn't 60FPS, but cannot really complain as it's free if you have game pass or RR.
Will play it fully when it has achievements working.

@EVIL-C Thanks for that, i hope they do soon.

I thought this game had achievements?

Finally the N64 holy trinity together again (Goldeneye, Turok 2 and Perfect Dark)on XBox Series X.
Thank the gods.

I like this one to be honest, bet it will be expensive.

Oh joy, another black controller.

FPS are my fave game genre so the more the merrier, really looking forward to this.

I'd like to think there will be quite a few 2D indie hidden gems that will be released in 2023.

@DreemWeever
I think Goldeneye will be released in December and announced at the Game Awards as "Now available on Game Pass"...

Currently playing it on my Xbox Series X and while at first was not that impressed with the game, over the last few weeks began to like it more and more.
Love the atmosphere, the art style and the graphical effects.
Really looking forward to the sequel, great news. 😊😊😊

Will play through the campaign again in November in HDR for the first time when i get a OLED/QLED as i love the gameplay even though the visual style is a bit bland.
Look forward to future DLC whenever that will be.

@k3lt0n
Nostalgia is powerful your right but i really don't know why.
It's weird but when it comes to games, nostalgia is more distinct to me than other mediums like film or music.
As you say the QOL improvements get better with each FH game but for some reason or another i don't seem to be enjoying the game compared to past iterations.
Maybe the problem is me and i need a break from gaming.

Forza Horizon 5 is not as good as Forza Horizon 4 which in turn is not as good as Forza Horizon 3.
Forza Horizon 3 is the best in the series. Sure, FH5 has better graphics and more cars, but i just find it less fun.
As some have said before i think the series needs a break for a few years and Microsoft need to be brave and bring back the PGR series.

If i could afford to buy one probably would but i think they need to add more design options also.
