@Dezzy Thanks, that was an interesting watch, and a really down-to-Earth, honest, and well-argumented review, that confirms my suspicions of it still being fun to play, regardless of its faults, and that none of these faults are overbearing, other than the biggest one, which is the delay, which has indeed hurt the game.
Either way, I'm now safe in the knowledge that I won't be regretting the purchase. Not that I was afraid of that in the first place, because "basically more of the same, but with a new coat of paint and bigger, better guns" was already good enough for me as a fan and owner of the previous two installments of the series...

@ThanosReXXX haha I know man. I'm keeping myself busy by going on a field trip with my son. Ever been on a bus for an hour with 40/50 9 and 10 year olds all talking at once, it's glorious /s
@redd214 Yeah, I remember school field trips. And there are several schools on the way to my previous job, so when I used to take the bus and subway to get there, I frequently came across entire droves of kids, all chattering nice and loud, at the same damn time...
No, haven't tried the multiplayer demos. The time slots weren't really ideal for me, and I'm not really interested in it either, unless it's with friends and/or family. And I don't have GamePass, just Xbox Live Gold, or is GamePass not required?

@ThanosReXXX no the demos were open to all. But as far as playing with friends, for whatever bizarre reason you won't be able to play the mp with friends at launch. They say they will add it shortly but seems like such a strange oversight for a game like this.
@ThanosReXXX I need a second and third at the same time based on the inevitability they will fail successively. @Zuljaras needs a second and third in series until he finds one that is suitable for is anechoic chamber.
@NEStalgia Alrighty, then. Enough with the Biblical fairy tales. On with the Xbox show...
Although, right now, all I'm doing, is watching some UEFA Champion's League Football (soccer) until the Direct starts, so for now, only Nintendo on the brain...
(well, that and how clueless Anti-Matter responds to all of us in the chit-chat thread)
@Octane I am still wondering what the whole Xbox app availability on Switch and/or other platforms is going to be about...
I see some people going completely nuts over that, thinking that ACTUAL Xbox Live is going to come to Switch, which of course, is NEVER going to happen, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what it's actually supposed to be, then.
