FWIW for all 7 Stadia fans, you can apparently sideload the Stadia app. But then there's always Xbox Game Streaming for us Game Pass Ultimate members. 

“finding a better visual match for voice actor Yuri Lowenthal was “a necessity.”

I’m not pro-crunch at all but I have to say, this doesn’t seem like *crunch* crunch. This seems no different than the mandatory OT I’ve had to work at a few manufacturing jobs in the past. This actually seems less awful than the 12 hour shifts 6 days a week I’ve worked. Granted we don’t know all the details, but on…

Tbh, same. Game Pass and especially Ultimate has made GWG kind of obsolete. I could honestly see them phasing it out before long.

A mediocre NFS and clunky adventure. A pretty meh month across both platforms, to be honest.

In this scenario “really good” is just “better than the live action movies”. Which wasn’t a high bar to cross. They always felt just as dumb as the live action movies, but with the benefit of taking place in the game universe.

Maybe they really meant *Final* Showdown?

Sad to say I haven’t seen it yet though it’s on my list. It looks like trademark Miike zaniness which I’m always for even if it's not the best adaptation.

Came here to say this. And directed by the legend, Takeshi Miike no less.

I’m definitely not buying one of these right away. Like I mentioned I’ve got a 5tb external hooked up to my One X right now. It’ll be a small hassle swapping Series X games between internal and external now and again but not as much as spending half the cost of the console. Though to be fair selling my One X will…

Welp, guess I'll be doing some back and forth between the internal and my 5tb hdd for a while. There'll be sales and all that but $220 is a hard to pull to swallow after a $500 console. 

The ven diagram of “But hello games lied” people and “people still play destiny" people is a circle. They're all the same person. 

Especially in this clown shoes crapshit year that’s delayed so many goals and events, it’d have been nice to be able to cap it off with a nice new toy. Like, sure, we’ll live and there's not much exclusive for either for a while but it’s one more disappointment on a mountain of disappointment. I’m at least killing the…

Agreed. It’s admittedly the least likely scenario by a long shot. Iirc there were rumors of Game Pass or xCloud coming to Switch, which seems more likely considering their cozied up relationship lately. The only way I could see it coming to Sony hardware is if Microsoft used exclusivity as leverage. By which I mean…

I mean, my life will be fine, sure. I’d still like one to replace my One X. But it’s incredibly frustrating that there’s Xbox Series X pre-orders for sale on my local Facebook Marketplace for $800.

If you preorder on amazon they don't charge until it ships and no authorization charges. If you can get one, that is. I can't even get the page to load.

This. If they keep them multiplat, they get your money. If they use this as leverage to get Game Pass on PlayStation, they get your money. If it pushes Game Pass on Xbox/PC? Gives them a larger portfolio of exclusives? Bam, your money. From a business perspective this was both pretty ballsy and very smart.

I love the technical benefits of playing on PC. Destiny 2 on my PC vs on my Xbox One X even is night and day. But I also appreciate the comfort of playing on my couch with the added benefit of a full Atmos sound system and large 4k screen. So it's kind of a toss up. 

They get your dollars either way, which is entirely the point.

I mean, holy shit. I’m admittedly more of an Xbox/PC player but I’ll eventually get both as I always do. But this is pretty big for Microsoft. They largely shat the bed on the exclusives front with Xbox One. But all these studio acquisitions they’ve made will start to take shape with the Series X/S and that’s…
