"Looking ahead, we continue to focus on offering more ways to play more games across any screen and ensuring value for Xbox players."
cloud-based subscription bullshit
I'm guessing the software price increase will effect PC games, too. Granted, MS and all it's owned studios are on BDS - it'll probably just mean all big releases launch at $80-90
Just pirate at this point. I only buy games from studios I actually like such as Larian or Owlcat.
Yeah, I only buy indies now - shit, I can barely run the new AAAs
I still don't know if you're supposed to get the Xbox S or the X or the Series X or the Xbox Sweaty Sex or the fucking whatever. Death to the games industry.
normie zoomers in the US who just play CoD and NBA 2K seem to like it
the series s is cheap and portable, I knew someone who had one for that reason
This and switch 2 announcement excellent was to increase steam deck popularity
Oooooh I hadnt heard that.
Also thought top tier steam deck was closer to $1000 not $650.
Am wondering how long games will take to go on 50% or more off once they are starting at $80 :(
Cheapest option is to get a refurb deck and put in a bigger SSD yourself
What's that, Microsoft? I can't hear you over my jambox 360
Gamepass is pretty legit ngl. Although I’m still on an original Xbox one
come join us gamers that only play retro and indie.
