PC GP 12$/month with the first month for free (7 months for $70 in practice). But you need to create a new account and pass content if you want to maintain achievements and the same friends automatically.
It was crazy to to that and it was known since both consoles were announced... "A cheaper version of the hardware to sell more units"... Yes... but in the real world it made both consoles more expensive from beginning to final seller, as well as less attractive for users, developers and stock. Who's responsible for this? How did it pass the filters? It is incredible how a company as big as Microsoft can do that. But, well... Microsoft has money as a punishment.
Oblivion Remake 49.99 $ (Steam with no discounts)
Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 19.98$ (G2A)
Doom: The Dark Ages 22.49 $ (G2A)
Metaphor: ReFantazio 26.33 $ (G2A)
It will still take some months to get those games for the price of 4 months of Game Pass Ultimate. I hope I can finish Metaphor before it is deleted from Game Pass. The others will be available while I finish other pending games that will be out of GP soon. Really... Game Pass stresses me ...
This is a meta game as no other.
I played Star Wars 1313 and StarCraft: Ghost on E3 floor and at close doors. So, no, those were not vapourware. They were real titles, finished or near to be.
Bad decisions materialized since 2008. That's it. Everything was right with a first gen to enter the market and Xbox 360 to mark distances in many aspects that made it a different breed. Many wanted an Xbox 360 or its exclusives, online options, access price, variety of experiences and... yes, the brand. Now, I don't see any wanting Xbox as a brand, only paid supporters and the ones that can't afford anything else.
Microsoft is now doing the same as others. Nothing will ...
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.
Well... PSVR2 still has exclusives and PS5 has some more, as well as PS4 (and PS3, PS2, PSOne ones). So, yes, your argument is valid, but not correct. You will lose very incredible experiences only with a PC and no PS5.
If you have a PC, you don't need an Xbox since... 2013?
Well... it plays better on a PS5 Pro than on a +1300$ PC. The formula of "consoles are cheaper than a PC" still works.
That's correct. Exclusivity should be paid. But... Does this mean that multiplatform shoud be cheaper too?
Add tariffs... and you will have a magical Nintendo moment when the console releases.
Incredible game... and great development diaries!
I'd like to have a cheap fully working wireless adapter and a new wireless version. BTW, games have been coming every week for PSVR2, so I don't see it coming back... It's been here all the time.
Only multiplayer makes sense now for Gears of War... but, yes, the original trilogy had a good single player experience. BTW, multiplayer made it great, not single player.
Blu-ray's still a thing.
We'll have to wait. Graphics, animations and physics is not all with this kind of game. Inventory, character relations and organization, decision branch and many other aspects are critical and engines dedicated to RPGs usually have problems with that.
wait...
A console needs something that sell enough units to spark continued interest from developers and the rest of the industry, whether it's portability, power, unique experiences, community, or whatever else they manage to establish as a standard for the platform. Xbox Series has never had none of these things... Even the price has been ‘the same as the other option’ and now, on top of that, Xbox Series seems even more expensive.
You know next Xbox Series S will be a portable Xbox. You know, don't you?
