Considering the number of rumours about the new Xbox circling around right now, we're considering changing April to Xbox-ril here at TechRadar. And as the stories have come flooding in, the gaming community has been unsurprisingly vocal in letting us know how it feels.
Until now, word has been that the new Xbox will have a feature that would make it only playable online, while saying goodbye to backwards compatibility and - though this third one's the least likely – blocking the use of old games.
Codemasters has unveiled a series of massive changes to the Career Mode in F1 24. Players will finally be able to play as a current superstar.
Bandai Namco have announced a console and PC game of the Tensura series - that of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime ISEKAI Chronicles.
Wrath: Aeon of Ruin has come about via some old classical inspiration. If you liked Quake, DOOM, Hexen or the like, then you're going to love this as it blasts onto Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch.
MS seems to consider its competitors to be Apple and Google in the console space. MS seems to be following a different path then Sony. Sony has changed its stance from "It only does everything" on the Ps3 to a very "Gamercentric" experience on the Ps4. MS has seemed to be setting its site on every living room in the developed world. So when a mom goes into a shop and sees the Xbox 720 she says:
"Hey whats that?" ....."So wait you telling me I can watch TV, do Zumba fitness and my son can play Call of War. Count me in." So if Sony's Ps4 is considered "Next gen" but MS calls its competitors Apple and Google and hasnt even mentioned Sony and Valve, is MS actually trying to win this Next Gen of GAME consoles or are they trying to win a different war over IOS(Apple TV) and Android(Google TV) in the living room.
Why does anyone need to "win" anything? How about articles like "how can Sony/MS/Nintendo be profitable and provide better experiences for gamers"? Next Gen isn't here yet and these articles are already getting on my nerves. How can all 3 be winners? Just make your consoles enjoyable for your customers.
