Electronic Arts has renewed its partnership with the Spanish national football league, La Liga. The 10-year deal gives FIFA exclusivity of the league’s clubs in sports video games.
Microsoft has rolled out an update on the Xbox Game Pass store page and app to reflect the games that will be leaving Xbox Game Pass.
The Last Stop, Fifa 20 (being replaced with 22) Jurassic World Evolution, MotoGP 20.
I won't miss these.
Jurassic World Evolution 2 is on there? Yoooo. I need to play that one! I LOVE the first one.
TMNT is so much fun! That came out of the blue for me! I have only been playing Arcade mode, but it's an instant classic already!
EA have announced in their online service updates notice that FIFA 20 will not be playable on EA Play from July 1, 2022.
Earlier this week, EA released the early-access version of FIFA 22 and players on the Xbox Series S seem to be very disappointed with the game's graphics, complaining of scaling, and low quality.
I fully expect an influx of Series S on the second hand market once the Series X and PS5 are more readily available. The value proposition is way off by comparison, in my opinion.
Nah... prob not. The S makes a great companion system for a bedroom or study. When you want to watch some streaming media or game casually.
I use one in my bedroom while the bigger systems are in the game room.
It's probably too soon to be seeing the S sitting around everywhere. However, if this thing starts to underperforming (no doubt that it will) I can see ppl returning it and getting the X or maybe even a PS5.
No doubt they'll get it all sorted out with this particular game, but it is telling how the S could have more and issues as the gen goes on.
Keep in mind darth your in lucky position to afford all 3 consoles and have the s simply as a comoanion
There are lot of people who have purchased the s as there main next gen console seeing as it was advertised as one.
I dont think the issues should be excused because of a few fortunate people.
I have a ps5 and series x, i always thought the s was a poor idea and people will come to regret buying it i feel if they thought id will hold up as there main next gen console.
@Lightning77
to be fair, the SS is already sitting around everywhere. maybe not in the US but it's pretty easy to get your hands on the SS everywhere else since a couple of months ago. it's definitely not a good sign as it's already showing its shortcoming not even a year after release and this is FIFA we are talking about.
The Series S may not be sitting around, but I feel it’s definitely easier to get a hold of. It doesn’t sell out in seconds and tends to linger before selling out.
The value of the XSS as a next gen console is very poor. Even by ignoring the power of the console and just focusing on the SSD.
Maybe, although I'd still rather get an SS over an SX. Reason is that I have a PS5 and I have very little interest in Xbox games, and if/when I do decide to get one it'll be relegated to the bedroom so for me to buy an SX would be a waste of money for use on a 1080p TV. As a pure Gamepass machine the SS is really good value for money
It's just a matter of time. I just hope that gamers don't sell their one x to get the s... Just wait and get the X if they want a Microsoft next Gen console.
I sold my one x to get the series s and not had one single regret , in my view it out performs the one x in every way except the lack of disk drive .
I still have my one x, along with like 5 other one x variants. But i am different in that regard. I collect the systems.
I have a Series S at a second home I own. It only has a 1080p TV so the Series S is working fine there.
I think there is a longer plan for Series S. First, it is price point. Last generation none of the device got down to the $99-149 price range. I think MS plan here is to get into that space this generation. Second, the next thing is the portable market. Switch has done well in that space. If MS were to release a Series S type device as a portable that just worked without having a separate store version of the game I think there is potential there.
Agreed especially when you consider the PS5 DE is only $400 and is the same spec as a PS5 all be it without a disk drive. The SS is an extremely poor choice from MS, why they didn’t just offer an SX without a disk drive for $400 is beyond me.
I played the early access Series S FIFA 22 and have not found any issues. Some slight graphical concessions but very slight in my opinion. Series S is about making next gen accessible to more people who can't always afford 4 and 500 pounds for the X and PS5. I find my Series A to be perfect for my needs and great value for money. I don't think it will be become a second hand system that much because there is a huge market for lower cost consoles and always will be. I think the criticism of FIFA 22 on Series S in this article is over the top.
I got my pre order money back, what was your impressions of the game.
I found the pressing and holding X button had changed for the worse with the player doing stupid stuff and half the time I didn't feel like I was in control.
sure it's an entry level product for the new gen but when you're running games worst than the gen you're replacing, it will leave a bad taste. why MS didn't even try to make it at least as powerful as the OneX (6TF) is still baffling to me personally. not even Nintendo has released a console weaker than its predecessor. the SS is special for all the wrong reasons.
Like many say, you cant go by the TF number. The S has the better cpu, gpu, memory and of course ssd. In all accounts it is better despite having a lower TF total. Its just more efficient in a smaller package. I think MS intentionally holds it back, making it use One S codepath when it comes to bc instead of One X codepath.
“ but when you're running games worst than the gen you're replacing, it will leave a bad taste”
Are you speaking from experience because you have both consoles or is this just your opinion and you don’t own any of the consoles ?
I can speak from experience and can honestly say that the series s is far better than the one x .
@Locutus
I don't own any of them but the OneX is a 4K console while the SS is 1440p console at best. at least with FIFA22, the OneX will run it at 4K60 like it did with FIFA21 same as PS4 Pro while the SS is 1080p60. I don't know how that equals to "series s is far better than the one x" as you claimed.
I got my pre order money back after trying fifa early access with EA play.
Its crap it doesn't even feel like your in control of the players.
I think it's the theme for these sports games. I feel like the players are having lesser control every year over the action of the players in the name of "realism". for example, I have left the NBA games for many years and tried it again when PS+ gave it a couple years ago. the game is basically unplayable to me as they are too much restrictions on the player movements which makes them fell like robots and not human. same with FIFA, I can't stand FIFA anymore due to this control issue. at least PES still keeps the control a little arcadey for it to still be enjoyable to me.
I'm a PES player tbh, I only pre ordered fifa cause my little nephew wanted to play online with us.
So thankful of the early access trial, got Kena instead.
I'll wait for my PES
Konami game is free this year. I wouldn't bother. The only mode I play in football games are ranked online matched with real teams anyway.
Good luck cause the pressing and holding the X button to get the player going twds the ball is totally messed up now.
fuck ea!
FIFA 21 has to a lot better then the scripted bullsh.....hm gameplay of FIFA 20. I stopped play FIFA cause how broken the game is, and how the computer always has the advantage
Screw EA
Every new FIFA gets harder to play... and not in a positive way.
EA sucks!
