Yes. And as for Starfield, Jeff Grubb has also said it could be a cross gen game. For the game itself it doesn’t mean much, but for devs it’s extra headaches but the team is confident apparently. I wonder if this is the reason they first had it planned for this year and now for next year. Truly hope it won’t cause any issues in terms of delays.

Leave Xbox One the fuck behind already. I do get it though, the shortages for XSX are probably too big, and while Game Pass matters most to Xbox, it’s probably not that they can totally ignore console salsa and install base. Thankfully we’ll know about this in a few weeks now.

I understand why Starfield would be cross-gen but like you, im hoping that it’s current gen only. On the positive side, even if it’s cross-gen, eliminating the PS4/PS5 versions cuts down on the workload. I’m hoping it’s March 2022 to be honest. I will have plenty of games to play in the second half and don’t need to add to it with a 100+ hour RPG. Plus, im a firm believer in spreading out exclusive games and content as opposed to stacking them all into one season.

I’m expecting gameplay at E3 but not a blowout as I do see them saving that for the return of X021.

The Kojima thing was Kojima taking a picture of a rainbow out of his office window. Sony happens to have their main HQ in the same area as the Kojima office and some PS fans took the Sony HQ being in the picture as irrefutable evidence that Kojima is making a PS game and that XBots got rekked. That’s basically the whole Kojima thing.

Oh, okay. So basically it’s nothing. lol. I can’t imagine Microsoft/Kojima not getting a deal done after Spencer had the Death Stranding statue on his shelf. Spencer isn’t stupid and wouldn’t do that just for the hell of it. Thanks for clarifying what it was. Appreciate it.

Meanwhile, ppl are not supposed to say they like Xbox. Sad.

Apparently, Destin is being attacked for saying he likes Xbox.

Shows why places like xboxera are important.

Why is Liking Xbox So Controversial?

Twitter where anybody says something about xbox in a positive light and it’s offensive.

Sadly for these people, Xbox is just going to keep growing.

I don’t understand the “News at 11” reference. What does it mean?

Guessing - Breaking news footage being showed at 11pm in the good ol’ days ™?

Microsoft released next-gen patches for Gears 5, Halo MCC, We Happy Few, Sea of Thieves and Forza Horizon 4 last year

pls dont get me wrong… but

maybe because they didnt have an NEW Xbox Studios title for November 2020? a lot of these updates (that are nice) were because of that.

Phil literally said that they bought Bethesda to provide exclusive games that “ship on platforms where Game Pass exists.” He didn’t say Xbox, PC and mobile. He said where Game Pass exists because that’s the future of the Xbox division. Microsoft is predominantly a service company and they’re aiming to be the first to make a gaming subscription service of this level their niche. They want to saturate the market as soon as they can, before competitors can take up much of the public’s mindshare on the concept,

Anyone who keeps thinking Phil or Satya give a rip about where people play Xbox games and Game Pass are living in another decade. They’ll put Game Pass and xCloud absolutely anywhere they can.

Absolutely man, and March is fine. Sure, if they were to surprise us all next month and say it IS coming this year I will jump through my ceiling of excitement, haha, but it’s not a super big deal if it’s March next year. So much good stuff in the backlog, so much good stuff coming in Game Pass, assuming Halo is great which I hope to God it is I’ll be real busy with that. FH5 maybe, and then all the great stuff like Psychonauts 2 which I’m going to enjoy the hell out of, The Ascent, The Gunk, CrossfireX (hopefully) and so on.

But again, please it not go past March. It’s so damn far away as it is.

Agreed. Plus none of that includes the third party multi-platform games like Far Cry 6 or Dying Light 2 for example.

My gaming schedule right now is as follows -

1. Mass Effect (first game)
2. BioMutant
3. Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
4. Necromunda: Hired Gun (50/50)
5. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla (backlog)
6. The Ascent

By the time I go through all of this, it will probably be at least mid-August. lol

No audio from my series x again sigh.

They really need to sort out these issues with LG man.

But weren’t we discussing a patch for The Last of Us, which came out last year?

Gawd - you were d:'oh-ing me. Love the explanation.

I mean, 74 games received FPS Boost support just a few days ago. The Last of Us is one game. That’s why I say Xbox’s efforts are underappreciated.

I was talking about TLOU 2. i always praised FPS Boost, Smart Delivery, BC etc. but i was not discussing this.

I feel you.

My reply was not directed towards you, though. I said “we” in a general sense, in which semantically I would be included aswell. It was a way of saying that the Xbox team deserves all the praise in the world.
