I want AC Valhalla as well, but Microsoft shows it in their Series X/S preorder email as a Game Pass title, so it’s probably best if I hold off to find out if that’s an error or something yet to be announced.

Yeah, was a broken page link for the longest time. Looks like you got in at just the right moment. I heard they went pretty fast as soon as it went live. I was pretty determined to get it through MS since I had over $100 in Rewards points towards it. Glad you were able to get one.

If anyone is to be blamed for the preorder debacle this morning it’s Amazon, Best Buy, and scalpers. Amazon didn’t put up their preorders until an hour after everywhere else went live. Best Buy, to my knowledge, still hasn’t put theirs up. Everyone was hammering the MS store, not much you could really do about it. At…

It sounds like that’s what they’re gonna do

This would be a great thing. Day One game pass is definitely a great thing. I believe it’s already been stated by Phil Spencer that all previous games would be on Game Pass too.

We definitely need 20 more releases of Skyrim before the end of days.

It’s entirely possible. Either way, this is a big move for MS.

I don’t know. I mean, everyone complains about Xbox not having any great exclusives, those are some pretty popular titles to consider exclusives. Why would they release them on PS when these are titles that will draw people to your console?

They forgot the Game of Thrones

Won’t matter. Republicans only need a simple majority of 51 and there’s 53 in the senate. Unless 3 vote against McConnell there’s nothing Dems can do. 

I was getting a strong Witcher feel from it

Because everyone asked for a Jurassic Park game that looks like a budget Borderlands game.

I definitely get that. My plan is to put the X on the floor next to my stand (where my One X is now) or behind my TV (which would be preferred, but worry about my cat knocking it off the stand). It’s tiled on the floor, so there won’t be an issue. I’m honestly not sure if the PS5 will fit in my stand, but I don’t plan…

Someone on Reddit made a mock-up (looks like it’s based on the disk slot size) and the PS5 is so much bigger

That’s possible, I just remember playing through with a friend. 

The original had online co-op

That was actually a complete typo error on my part where I meant to say “now” instead of “not” and wasn’t paying attention as I was typing.

EA Play will not be included in Game Pass Ultimate, so add that to the benefits of the installment plan.

So now we have a fast food ordering mic and an air purifier. Not sure what Sony or Microsoft were thinking. Glad the XSX is an option in terms of looks.

Except this isn’t the console they’re pushing.
