Red Dead Redemption (the first one) on series X is awesome with the backwards compatibility enhancements. I played it on xbox one before the more recent enhancements and the game was awesome.

I love the art style, more importantly can i get my Roland SCII to do the music via MIDI to get the music style i remember.

Guess you didn’t actually get the click the door 5 times achievement yourself....

welcome to the issue of contract and / or part time work across all industries - i know someone who was part time at a large grocery chain (at least with benefits in this case) who needs to be available 7 days a week with no set schedule but still only getting aroun 24 hours a wee - meaning it was impossible to get…

thanks!

The game sounds fabulous and i enjoy the endless articles, don’t think i am ever likely to play it (unless it hits gamepass) given what I see about the difficulty level. certainly not going to drop $ on it in the hope i could overcome that.

it shouldn’t bother them any more than gamepass does.

I have never had an issue with Auto HDR, looks great.  Is it as good a real HDR, no, its best guess.  Also i wouldn’t be surprised if MS chucked in all of the 1st party back compat games from 360 and OG era *if* that became an issue / they see drop off in subs...

As someone who owns both no it is not as great as people say, i was underwhelmed on day1 launch and I continue to be so. Is it a great improvement over PS4, yes, but then so were the impulse triggers on xbox one controllers.

haven’t been impressed with the haptics from day one, but maybe its because i am one of those folks who cant help but grip the controller furiously.

And we have todays winner of the “I don’t want <insert something i read about on the internet> so you shouldn’t want it.” Guy. Congratulations!

Guess what not all films games / movies / books / whatever are trying to cater to your personal preference.

speeds may have increased but latency hasn’t improved for many unless the moved access type. Aka if you were on cable 10 years ago and you are on cable today the latency hasn’t improved that dramatically. The question is more why does halo infinite feel like its doing worse to mitigate latency issue that other games…

If you think this is being bullish on something you need to take more courses in company doublespeak. This was a CEO hedging his bets about something. The ‘important’ statement is there just to get shareholder idiots / board idiots of his back.

Cue the ‘shit hot take’ of wow looks its crap, I will dismiss this show because it doesn’t meet <insert unreasonable expectation I made up because i am so self absorbed i think my opinion matters>. If you think it isn’t for you, why not move along and leave the rest of us in peace. Not every show / movie / game has to…

Invasion is genuinely so bad it’s hilariously entertaining.

And that’s just fine by MS if you keep buying gamepass, they don’t make money on consoles.

there is a great chicken/egg discussion to be had here i think - for example how much did MS do this because they saw how 1st part exclusives were driving sony’s success... i.e. this wouldn’t have happened without sony

Define bad (genuine question).

guess we need to put a stop to all candy stores child monetization too, or the toy shop?

Indeed, agree with you completely.
