@Ralizah "Gamers should never be forced to purchase the same game twice"
Yeah this seemed like an ill-considered statement to me. They've literally just launched a Switch version of the Witcher. Why didn't we get it for free if we owned the PS4/Xbox/PC version?
Microsoft, I believe, has the marketing rights to Cyberpunk 2077, so it makes sense to promote the game alongside their next-gen console, which is likely why they only confirmed this feature with regard to the new Xbox. Wording it that way costs them nothing and gets people online squealing about how wonderful and pro-consumer they are again.
@redd214 Well, provided they like basketball (games), of course...
I do see another game in there, which might be of interest to a certain @NEStalgia person, though.

@redd214 Just pulling your leg, man. Different strokes for different folks. Basketball is just not my thing, so saying it's a great addition by default is not necessarily and universally true, so that's what inspired me to add my two cents.
Interesting article, and nice if it happens. Guess we'll find out soon enough. Either way, the wait isn't even all that long anymore, for some official footage or info, so I guess I'll be able to keep myself in check for a couple more months...

@ThanosReXXX thanks, I'll make sure and add "in my opinion" to all future opinions so no one accidentally mistakes my opinion for a gospel truth of all gamers. Glad ya told me!
@redd214 It's interesting how Microsoft is giving so much more info than the others. For Nintendo there's been no general Direct for 6 months and counting and nothing's really happening on the Sony front in terms of info for upcoming stuff.
@Grumblevolcano yeah certainly is interesting, I like what they're doing though I think it'll pay off for them! Conversely unlike many others I don't think that the quietness of the other 2 are really as big of a deal as folks are making it out to be.
@redd214 Oh, man, my bad. Online communication remains sucky at times. I've been offline for over a week, due to a lot of crappy stuff, so now that I've just returned, I'm not quite as aware as I normally am...
Oh, well. Water under the bridge, and all that.
