Some data I found for the previous console generation states that only about 50% of PS4 owners also owned an XBox One of some type

Since I’m dumb and didn’t realize that MS’s Cloud gaming quality wasn’t based on the console you used how have people’s results been? I downloaded Forza 5 to my XBO S, but if I get better results via streaming I’d much rather do that. Currently I get about 220 MB/S for my internet I’d assume that would be enough.

Actually so looking forward to playing this.

That is telling. I wonder how that’s related to play time. Perhaps some percentage only checked out that game b/c it’s F2P and it’s slightly skewing results.

Yeah exactly. I hate sounding like the “back in my day!” guy, but like..we played halo back when there weren’t any real unlockable skins. Like, I get it feels backward given how the games have progressed leading up this. But it’s still a fun game.  And right now it’s free.  People are angry about “having” to pay for…

I’m just baffled at this idea that SPARTAN customization has been part of Halo for nearly a decade and a half, including a significant part of the Master Chief Collection, and everyone’s just like whatever.

Same but the lack of dedicated playlists has caused me to put it down. I just want to play Slayer like the old days and I get stuck in these other game modes that don’t interest me.

Beyond Gamepass, the main reason I moved to Xbox over Sony after owning every Sony system up until this gen was in the software and UI support. I picked up an Xbox One X a couple of years ago and was immediately amazed at how much better that entire ecosystem navigated and ran relative to my PS4. When I read that Sony…

inb4 “i got one easily all i had to do was sign up for every alert app, follow every alert account on social media, subscribe to alert discords, offer a blood sacrifice on the full moon, and pay a scalper (that I won’t tell anyone about)”

Not exactly surprising anyways, honestly this entire supply chain issue/COVID has created a situation where the previous generation of gaming has dragged out. Not only have releases been pushed back extensively, but we still haven’t seen significant switches to the new gen, because most people still don’t have the new…

Who the fuck wants to play dozens and dozens of hours just to change the color of a visor

I kinda love how cutting his own salary is the “wait, wait, WAIT” part of the “the guy talking smack gets decked” narrative..

Well, I suppose prepping his golden parachute is taking a bit longer than expected.

Between chip shortages and scalpers we’re gonna reach the point where this actually is a deal.

I was just playing it, too. Controls are a lot better, but the terrible graphics and really unresponsive mini-game controls make me think that we needed remakes, not slightly amped-up mobile ports.

Or a president, perhaps?

It’s a pity that this is where the release is at.

This is my problem with the push for diversity in games.
