Topic: The everything Xbox thread

Gonna say.. I thought it wasn’t possible for MS and 343 to annoying me more after Halo 5 but here we are with the progression nonsense in Halo Infinite. I really hope the campaign will deliver or i am done with the franchise.

Halo Infinite got great review scores and I can’t wait to play the campaign on PC

@Tasuki
My most wanted games for BC were Driver San Francisco and blur, guess my 360 stays in service then!

Interesting change of tone for this months Game Pass additions - some real kid-friendly titles in there including a Paw Patrol Game, Ben 10, Race with Ryan and Transformers Battlegrounds....oh, and Mortal Kombat 11 😂

Started watching Power On: The Story of Xbox on YouTube last night. A really good documentary on the history of the Xbox Console done really well. If you like documentaries or just gaming history this is a must watch

Not that I'm particularly looking to upgrade right at the moment, but out of curiosity I always walk by the electronics section during my twice a month trip to Walmart to see if I can't get my first ever glimpse of either of the next gen systems in the wild, and today I noticed that they actually had a bunch of Series S consoles in stock.

@RR529
I think some peoples are smart enough to not consider Digital only machine.
They were thinking about long term satisfaction.
Digital only machine will be ended like PSP Go when the server get closed.

@RR529 I think you should just go for it, If you'v been looking for a Next gen system, this is perfect, why the hell not!

????

There is literally no comparison here.

Eh, I got a gaming laptop earlier in the year, so I probably shouldn't invest in a new console so soon too (especially since I should be able to play any Xbox exclusives I'm interested on it. While not at max settings, I was able to enjoy Flight Sim, for example).

I was just saying how cool it was to finally see some in the wild (probably a last minute Christmas shipment rather than a sign of them becoming more readily available, but neat nonetheless).

@Pizzamorg LMAO welcome to the world of anti.

@RR529 Oh alright, I thought you were asking if you should buy it or not, my bad LMAO.

@RR529 Yeah, I have seen them being sold in store the past few months at different intervals. I have yet to see a Series X or a PS5 in store for sale. My roommate was able to by a Series X from my local Walmart store. He walked in asking if they still sold the One X since he figured that the X/S was out of the question at the time and they sold him a Series X. To be fair though they said it was left over from an online order that the person never came and picked up.

@Pizzamorg Yeah he rarely makes sense. Best advice just ignore that guy.

What the hell are you talking about?

The Series S is an amazing console and is perfect for gamepass and legacy Xbox Titles.
The downside is a lack of disk drive and limited storage space.

@RandomNPC
I do not like digital only machine.
I do not care with Game pass.
I do not like it at all.
I only play games in physical media (disc / cartridge) so i need consoles / handhelds with physical media slot.
I am dinosaur.
I have decided 10 OG XBOX and 20 XBOX 360 games (6 Normal XBOX 360 games,
14 Kinect XBOX 360 games) with All the games only rated Everyone, Everyone 10+, PEGI 3, PEGI 7, PEGI 12 (Kinect Sports 1).
All Kids games, Nothing else.

@Anti-Matter that's your personal opinion, even though you wouldn't buy one you can't say it's a rubbish machine just because it doesn't suit you. I'm not a fan of cartridge based media - does that make the Switch rubbish?
You need to be able to remain impartial when offering advice, or if you don't have anything constructive to add to a conversation then don't say anything and move on.

Also, I assume from your posts that you are an adult and saying you only play "kiddie games" raises all sorts of red flags - its definitely kind of creepy.

Yeah, questioning one’s intelligence because you personally don’t want a digital only machine is kind of a real yikes.

@RandomNPC
Every peoples have different interest.
I have strong interest with kids games and i want all my games collection dominated by kids games by almost 100% with a few of Teen games to saturate a little bit that i have approved.
My games choices has been shaped from my past when i was young.
That's me, with genuine interest in kiddie games. It wasn't creepy at all.

Oh, btw.
These are my 5 OG XBOX games i have collected.
Just only need 5 more OG XBOX games then i will have 10 OG XBOX games.

And when i said i only play kids games (look at my Hello Kitty game), i really meant it.
This week i will try to get another two OG XBOX games again while waiting my two DDR games (DDR Ultramix 3 & 4) arrived from Ebay on next month.

@Anti-Matter Quite a few kids games added to Game Pass this month too - Race with Ryan, Paw Patrol, Ben 10, Transformers.... Sounds like stuff you'd enjoy.
