Some Xbox details

@redd214 That image concerned me as there was no normal USB port, but it turns out the normal USB is on the front.

Xbox X looks like a Speaker box to me. 🤣

An update to that, apparently those shots aren't 100% accurate according to Microsoft.

Huh, perhaps they should reveal actual pictures, then .... ?

@BlueOcean

I think Ninfan is a bot btw. He/She seems to pop up in various threads and ask completely random questions of people but then never reply.

@Dezzy No idea.

@redd214 Yes, it's a fake.

Yes I'm aware hence the follow up.

Seems kinda amateur on AMDs part. Not as big a deal as some are making it out to be but weird nonetheless.

They shouldn't use a mockup of an unreleased console if they don't want to attract attention. OBVIOUSLY it's going to become news.

Sooo....
The first trailer we saw about Xbox Series X was a Proto type version ?

@Anti-Matter No, the render of the back of the console shown by AMD at their CES 2020 press conference was fake.

Tekken 7, Fristpunk, and Sword Art Online coming to Game Pass within the next couple weeks. Never heard of the other 2 but Tekken 7 is a dream to play, they did a fantastic job with it!

@redd214 Agreed, Tekken 7 is great! It’s also pretty easy to get into for newcomers to fighting games, so it’s a fantastic addition to Game Pass

@JoakimZ yeah it is! Tekken 2 was the first game I got with the original PlayStation so I will always have a soft spot for the series. But you're right 7 is great for newbies and they've supported it quite well since release

@Dezzy nah Ninfan is just... Ninfan.

He has a large curiosity and a small attention span.

Nice piece of kit here from razer. Perfect for Xcloud/Game Streaming. Wonder if MS is going to make a first party solution going into next gen

After Christmas, I am back to Final Fantasy XV. It's not the typical Final Fantasy game and I had realised that but it's a wonderful combination of Xenoblade Chronicles X, best original Wii U game in my book, and other open-world games. I will never understand those people that consider Breath of the Wild the game of the decade and don't pay attention to infinitely better games (I guess they only play Nintendo's games). In my opinion, BotW is the worst 3D Zelda game ever developed and a very mediocre open-world game even compared to the first Assassin's Creed game that I played the same year that I played BotW (2017). Sorry but I really need to repeat this every time that I play some other games.

@BlueOcean

Make sure you have all the DLC first if you're playing XV. They really improve the game a massive amount.

BotW was my 1st Zelda, @BlueOcean ..... So, I liked it a lot but I can't obviously compare it to previous games in the series FFXV is pretty good, overall, despite what some fans of the older games think. Reminds me I need to get on with that soon, too
