Microsoft takes its time over Xbox 360 Skype integration

It has been seven-and-a-half months since Microsoft acquired Skype in a $8.5 billion buyout last year, yet the software giant has yet to roll out the video calling platform across its key services, including Xbox 360. And it is believed that we may have to wait longer still for the games console version, with a suggestion that it won't be available until 2013.

I really hope this Skype integration isn't going to be just a run of the mill bog standard app with voice and video chat, although that would be great and all i feel Microsoft could do more with it.

What id like for them to do is integrate it into the already existing Xbox live chat/party chat. We all know the party is already pretty good but the skype sound quality is just on another level..... they could even go as far as to make it perform over multiple platforms example: Guy A is on his Xbox, Guy B is on his PC and Guy C is on his phone while all being in the same party chat. I feel this would really help Microsoft in the long run..... even the Kinect could maybe use some of the Skype video encoding (although im not sure how good or bad Skype video is).

‘GTA V Gets Pulled from PS Plus as PC Players Continue to Favor Legacy Over Enhanced’

That’s an awful clickbait title. The use of the word ‘as’ means the first statement is the result of the second, when in reality they’re not connected.

Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)

It just got put back on Game Pass recently too.

GTA V is the pass-around sub title, and it probably doesn't even matter because everyone owns a copy or even two by now.

Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?

There should be a second listing right under it in your library.

Is there anything wrong with the enhanced version if you’re just playing single player?

Destiny already has the pretty hyper 'raid' fixation and then they added legendary raid dungeons. Hyperfixating in PvEvP wouldn't work as well because you need a lot more than 2% of the userbase to keep that going unlike raids that are propped up by streamers who make running them their whole job. Most players don't play all the raids let alone run them over and over. And most who play PvP don't want structured PvE elements.
