As Team Insignia further develops the Original Xbox Live 1.0 replacement service currently supporting 169 games, the much anticipated return of Halo 2 online play is nearing the horizon. While no official date has been set, it seems Halo 2 will once again be playable online via Original Xbox consoles and Xemu emulation in the somewhat near future, via "Xbox Live".
The second edition of gamescom latam brought some heavy hitters from some of the best developers in Brazil.
"While Xbox prints money, while it spends $75 billion on acquiring Activision, while it aggressively cuts into its profit attempting to corner the market with Xbox Game Pass, and while it does little to curtail bloat and overspending at its studios, it wants you to give it more money. And you shouldn't."
"Rather than absorb the cost of inflation, tariffs, and other costs, Xbox is passing along the cost to its consumers. This is an odd decision to begin with"
When US-based fake-journalists don't know at all what they're talking about.
Nintendo's listing games at $80 after their most successful console generation in their history. They even increased the price of the Joycon 2 mouse strap One Freaking Dollar because they can. Sony has said the PS5 generation is their most profitable generation so far and also has their own international console price increases and even increased the controller price stateside.
This isn't an Xbox problem, it's a games industry problem.
That's how businesses work they don't absorb costs unless they have to.
They don't owe us anything and neither do we same goes for Nintendo and Sony
I even expect valve to increase the steam deck price
Looks like the Australian price for the series X is up to $849 for the base model bit the 2tb one which is now near the 1k mark.
849 for a console that cost 749 on launch 5 years ago is just Wild it's crazy how bad the economy is tanking right now.
I've never seen a price increase since the Jaguar and that was a while other dumpster fire
Microsoft is currently working on three new Xbox controller prototypes, each offering a unique feature set, according to a new rumor.
If a controller is not attached to a console from the beginning, nobody will use its "advantages". No new console, no new experiences for Xbox owners... But Microsoft can replicate Dual Sense and then... magic could happen and PC players could have more desirable options to connect to their systems, not only for PS5 conversions.
I really hope they include string HD rumble like in PS and Switch 2 controller. But really stronger. I could barely feel Hd rumble from Switch 1.
Let's gooo
