.?.?.?.?.?..

[alpine jolt]

No difference

[young fog]

Theyre the same

[hearty plinth]

No difference

[dark yoke]

No Difference

[charred mulch]

But xbox one and xbox series have different controllers that work with eachother

[lunar tartan]

Well this week’s new Fortnite Festival songs are meh. Hey Brother and Uptown Funk are the only ones I’d really enjoy playing

[slim birch]

So I should not get the refurbished Xbox Elite 1 Controller and should buy the Xbox X controller..

[alpine jolt]

Probably

[limber carbon]

Maybe.... it's maybeline?

[lunar tartan]

I think maybe Fortnite festival is running out of choices

[crisp wagon]

Are you sure? Mine is most definitely a series 2, I had internal switches on bumpers fail after literally 3 weeks of use, looked online lotta people complain about it and no wonder MS offers basically no questions asked warranty on them

[young fog]

I told you about 7 times that I wouldnt buy a refurbished controller. Maybe read the answers when you ask questions? Stop tagging me. Also, I'd buy the (new) ''Xbox X controller'' 😄

[hearty plinth]

Depends on what u want out of a controller

[lunar tartan]

I miss when it was consistently 6-8 songs a week and not just 4

[young fog]

Next time you ask me the same question I am flipping a coin to answer you 😛

[hearty plinth]

Plus u need to make the decision urself

[tired hare]

get the new one

[slim birch]

XBOX X. THEN

[tired hare]

yeah

[alpine jolt]

Do you think if i dropped it on the bottom of the ocean and had to bring a deep sea dive team to recover it that the warranty would still work

[charred mulch]

I can't wait to try final fantasy

[slim birch]

GTG

[crisp wagon]

No because its buyer inflicted damage

[tired hare]

used controllers could have stick drift so personally i would get the new one

[hearty plinth]

Which

[crisp wagon]

You would like have to make God do it idk

[charred mulch]

The X and X2 HD remaster

[young fog]

I am happy you have come to a decision!

[alpine jolt]

Lame

[crisp wagon]

Oh ye just say Jesus dropped it while you were on the toilet

[young fog]

Now I need a nap, this Discord is more tiring than my job right now 😄 😄

[hearty plinth]

Loved x first ff game

[swift thistle]

||series peaked here||

[hearty plinth]

Thought it was ff7

[alpine jolt]

He was walking on water and accidentally dropped his bag with my controller in it

[crisp wagon]

Bingo that sounds good

[swift thistle]

FF7 was alright, it was more impressive from a technology standpoint back then tho

[limber carbon]

So what are we playing today? I was thinking of getting back to Senua's Sacrifice or another game.

[idle spear]

first descendant at the moment and old spyro games

[crisp wagon]

probably gonna finish off rdr2

[alpine jolt]

Did you beat the main chapters yet?

[modern orchid]

Gonna play some Elder Scrolls Online.

[earnest sage]

FFX was my first FF as well

[hearty plinth]

Or the challenges in rdr2

[crisp wagon]

I have beaten it on ps4 years back, now I am replaying and getting the 100%

[swift thistle]

My first FF was 4

[crisp wagon]

did those, man some of them are so horrible

[earnest sage]

Our family wasn't well off growing up so I missed a lot of games as a child

[alpine jolt]

Nice, 100% rdr2 seems painful, the achievements sound like a nightmare

[tired hare]

HPYCF-VCPK4-KJ3JM-CXX2F-FM67Z

[crisp wagon]

I would say like few things are pretty bad but most is just playing the game

[hearty plinth]

I will be happy on just completing the game

[crisp wagon]

Like getting attacked and survivng a bear attack 18 times is there as joke, you are never gonna accidentally do this

[alpine jolt]

I just got a notification for a YouTube video called "Xbox - Official Amazon Fire TV Stick Trailer"

[crisp wagon]

ye thats why I go for achievements after I finish the game

[halcyon stratus]

they've been asking this for a day lmao

[swift thistle]

why are you orange

[halcyon stratus]

I just got a suggested video called "America - A fully staffed Moonbase has existed for 50 years and no one knew until today"

[alpine jolt]

I tried to 100% half life 2 but the secret achievement bugged out for me on steam and won't unlock no matter what i try, i was so mad

[earnest sage]

I told you, he changed it as well and I was like "tacticat is always yellow, wtf"

[alpine jolt]

Lmao

[crisp wagon]

yeaaah ran into a lot of buggy ones over the years

[halcyon stratus]

Orange is just tired yellow, which is currently me

[alpine jolt]

I couldn't find anything about it online either so I think it's a me issue, but i tried everything, even a fresh install

[halcyon stratus]

One of my monitors has randomyl turned off and then on again within 1 second several times this morning and i'm just trying to ignore it. i don't have the time or energy for this

[upbeat wing]

Guys

[alpine jolt]

Hello Ducky

[upbeat wing]

Someone is reporting me for meta playing while I was just chilling while playing FC24 I have screenshots

[halcyon stratus]

report, block, move on

[alpine jolt]

Nothing will probably come of it you're fine

[crisp wagon]

I think I actually had the same thing happen in rdr2, some known to be buggy quest kept deleteing my itmes from the inventory, but nobody had this exact same problem. Literally nothing fixed it other than just redoing the quest until it worked

[alpine jolt]

Lol that is a weird issue

[swift thistle]

rdr2 has some weird bugs, the worse being the bugged animal spawns

[crisp wagon]

it was that small animal gathering quest, last part of it

as I picked up a fresh perfect carcass, other ones would just disappear

[upbeat wing]

Ok thanks

[earnest sage]

There's a meta in football?

[tired hare]

my xbox account just got suspended for having a cigarette in my pfp how is that fair lmao

[trail harness]

Ive noticed a lot of tech companies that are competitors are also often partners at the same time

[tired hare]

so now i can’t communicate with anyone for 2 days

[open flume]

yep, like in most games

Didn't think that was such a thing in that, more for like OW or games of that ilk

[upbeat wing]

I am gonna post screenshot in the section

[lunar panther]

Folks, please respond ❤️

[open flume]

most of the sports games have a meta style

[cinder veldt]

At least 3

[hearty plinth]

If u got explorer role

[tired hare]

they didn’t even remove my pfp aswell they just suspended me where’s the logic?

[mellow roost]

I have message requests turned off, so unfortunately, I'm no help. 😔

[cinder veldt]

Maybe one should turn it off tbh

[lunar panther]

Do you mind telling me why you have them disabled?

[mellow roost]

I slept like a brick though. 10/10

[sage ice]

There is no option to vote for I don't know

[lunar panther]

You don't vote then lol

[upbeat wing]

@hearty plinth how can I get explorer role?

[weary solar]

#rules 🖼️ 16.

[lunar tartan]

You’re talking about the $15 card thing if you use a code of that one place that’s banned here right?

[lunar panther]

yup

[mellow roost]

It was from when I got botted a while back. It was the only way to actually stop all the party invites and messages.

As for my experience prior to that, I got bot spam pretty rarely compared to others.

[lunar tartan]

Then yup x5 I think lol

[lunar panther]

make sure you're voting on the poll then! 🙂

[fiery python]

I get loads of it.

[gray latch]

getting botted from someone on here is why I disconnected my gamertag :(

[cinder veldt]

If I were to turn them off it would be because

[tame vortex]

Uh damn it.

[ripe grotto]

Cheats in GTA V are hilarious

[tame vortex]

They slipped something in when making the price increase.

[lunar tartan]

That’s horrible

[mellow roost]

I wish there was an easy way to get rid of all these botted followers, but alas.

[lunar tartan]

How many followers do you have?

[cinder veldt]

I don't have my gamertag connected because I want it to be more like individual

[mellow roost]

Like 5400.

[lunar tartan]

How many of those are legit?

[mellow roost]

Only about 160 or so.

[lunar tartan]

Damn you got botted bad

[gray latch]

it would be awesome to bulk dump followers

[lunar panther]

Make sure to vote on the poll then @minor grotto #general-chat message

[cinder veldt]

My bet, as many friends as she has. Only she can see

[lunar panther]

Learning that posting a poll in general chat very quickly gets burried 😄

[charred mulch]

It makes you look like you have alot of friends
It would be nice to have some bots to make me look like I'm plentiful in friends

[haughty inlet]

I got theses scam messages but at least they're occasionally than everytime

[tame vortex]

Starting September 12th, stacking Xbox subscriptions above 13 months on console won't work. Anyone who has stacked subscriptions already won't be affected.

This sucks...

Why Xbox, why.

[cinder veldt]

Followers is not same as friends. Friends is cooler if anything

[lunar tartan]

I just checked you have 5561 lol that’s a bit wild

[mellow roost]

Because they're getting rid of Console and it's being replaced by Standard.

[charred mulch]

So I can't get game pass ultimate for 2 years??? Or I can't get game pass core and ultimate on the same console???

[mellow roost]

Oh so either I got botted again or a few hundred people added me from the Xbox server.

[charred mulch]

Will standard have online

[trail harness]

cant wait for this

[lyric jetty]

They’re only making it so you cant stack console

You can still stack core, standard, pc and ultimate

Standard includes online play

[lunar tartan]

Or you’re just that popular 😛

[charred mulch]

I can't stack 10000 of gamepass console?!

[long maple]

Standard doesnt get Day One games.. but yeah looks like Online will be.. Console didnt have Online so it was a weird tier to begin with

[trail harness]

up to 13 months iirc

[lyric jetty]

They’re removing gamepass console

It is being replaced by gamepass standard

[tame vortex]

Oh what they mean is the Console tier. Any other tier you can still stack.

[open flume]

get outta here with your readin'

[lyric jetty]

Yes

[trail harness]

Heh, I've been thinking they should do that for a while

[hearty plinth]

I wonder if bo6 will be day one for standard game pass

[mellow roost]

Yep.

[open flume]

and your words!

[charred mulch]

So what happens to core? I remember Game Pass For Console not having online play

[lyric jetty]

Core still exists

[charred mulch]

Who wants to stack subscriptions anyways

[tame vortex]

I'd like to.

[cinder veldt]

Xbox is turning into ps plus

[foggy skiff]

something I can stomach

[lyric jetty]

Core - $9.99
PC - $11.99
Standard - $14.99
Ultimate - $19.99

[tame vortex]

Just in case of another price increase.

[long maple]

I like stacking. saves me having to pay monthly

[trail harness]

people with unstable incomes

[open flume]

um!?

[charred mulch]

Damn what will standard add?

[earnest sage]

Ultimate needs to come with access to all DLC's or it really isn't worth it

[open flume]

i stack subs 3 years out for xbox and definitely not unstable lol

[mellow roost]

Game Pass, Online, but no day-one games.

[lyric jetty]

Gamepass console (without cloud and day 1 releases) + core

[trail harness]

Im not saying thats the only reason but it is one. I used to do it for that reason.

[mellow roost]

So it's basically what Console should have always been.

[charred mulch]

Console doesn't have online play, because that's cores thing, am I correct? They are adding online to the console version

[tired hare]

bruh how am i supposed to remove the gamerpic on my profile that violated the terms of service if im suspended

[cinder veldt]

What counts as not day one? Does it have perks still?

[lyric jetty]

12 months probably

[lyric jetty]

First party games

[charred mulch]

That's the fun part, you don't

[charred mulch]

Will it include EA Play?

[tired hare]

so they ban me but they let me keep the pfp that i got banned for

[charred mulch]

Dang

[trail harness]

you wait out the suspension then remove it before playing online again

[mellow roost]

[amber beacon]

is there a self promotion tab anyehwere? i’ve been working on a custom controller website, still very early in development but would love to share it with y’all

[charred mulch]

Guys there has been a 1$ increase we gotta whine about xbox being greedy /jk

[limber carbon]

Nope, self-promotion of any kind is disallowed here.

[charred mulch]

Rule 7

The horror

[amber beacon]

you got anywhere/ any ideas as to where i can share it?

[uneven river]

I got 5 within like 10min 2 days ago

[charred mulch]

Reddit

[cinder veldt]

I meant like I get not day one but like? Day 2? Day 50?

[smoky badger]

its legal?

[charred mulch]

Rule 13

[long maple]

yeah Xbox hasnt given that much info yet. likely wont know till September?

[lyric jetty]

They haven’t said, but it’ll probably be 6 months to 12 months if I had to guess

[weary solar]

#rules 💵 13. No buying, selling, or trading items/codes on the server. Do not ask for codes, handouts, or freebies either.

[lyric jetty]

Maybe 3 months for some of the smaller AA style first parties

[smoky badger]

oh sorry

[trail harness]

I just noticed my kb doesnt let you use caps lock unless shift is held. This is nice because I often accidentally hit it.

[hearty plinth]

Or gamescom xbox showcase

[charred mulch]

Tiger gamecom reference

[long maple]

doesnt change much for me tbh, I play more Game Pass than anything else

[open chasm]

Is Game Pass Standard fully replacing Game Pass Console?

[ripe grotto]

Hello

[open chasm]

Or will both co-exist?

[lyric jetty]

Console is going to be no longer purchasable for new members

[atomic dagger]

Best games on xbox gamepass ultimate?

[charred mulch]

What happens to people that have it

[lyric jetty]

Existing members can stack up to 13 months max and they’ll phase out console cards overtime

[lyric jetty]

They’ll keep it until it runs out

[charred mulch]

They still haven't phased out live gold cards

[long maple]

those old cards are just Game Pass Core even if they say Gold on them

[open chasm]

Nice. At least they're finally implementing console multiplayer at all tiers.

I heard it won't have new Xbox releases on Day 1 though.

[lyric jetty]

Correct

[earnest sage]

Got two new games 🥳

[charred mulch]

It's still called gold by my standards
I have low standards

[earnest sage]

Apollo Justice trilogy and the Great Ace Attorney Chronicles

Means all I'm missing in the one coming in September for Edgeworth

[open chasm]

Well geez, that kinda goes back on the whole shtick.

[long maple]

nice, I still havent finished the normal Ace Attorney. got a feeling it might leave GP so best get on it

[earnest sage]

Aye, I played it on the DS yeaaaars ago, ended up getting an import copy from Lik-Sang (RIP) when it was still around

[molten frigate]

do you get banned for saying suicidal things? dont got time to read a 800 page essay about rules

[open chasm]

I thought part of the deal by Sarah Bond was getting day one releases on Game Pass across the board.

[hearty plinth]

I dont have have apollo and the september either

[earnest sage]

Join me frend, let us play together

[long maple]

across the board was them saying the different studios. not GP tiers

[hearty plinth]

Lol

[earnest sage]

Depends?

[foggy skiff]

lettuce

[gray latch]

there are only 16 rules

[foggy skiff]

17*

[gray latch]

well 17 is not in the written rules tho

[molten frigate]

this is my third account, i usually say "kms" after a big koss in a game and mt account gets soft locked the next morning

[tired hare]

Is there a service outage again

[weary solar]

#rules 17. No dying (backup saves are not a suitable substitute!)

[charred mulch]

What is the 17th

[open chasm]

Ok, gotcha. I guess plans change and it's pretty clear that Day One releases hurt developers when the sub is at such a subsidized price, so I suppose it's a good thing.

Especially since Ultimate provides them at Day One.

[gray latch]

that sounds like a hint to learn from

[earnest sage]

Try not to say that then

[charred mulch]

Zang

[molten frigate]

i just thought no one plays it

[molten frigate]

well considering i lost an account which ive spent 3000 hours on (using cross save) im pretty famished

[earnest sage]

You're hungry?

[foggy skiff]

have a snickers

[molten frigate]

they shouldve just added a server tab like battlefield

[foggy skiff]

you're not you when you're hungry

[earnest sage]

You're not yourself when you're hungry @molten frigate

[molten frigate]

famished as in very frustrated

[molten frigate]

thanks ill have a snickers bar ❤️

[tired hare]

Anyone else getting a temp service outage message when trying to play something or is it just me????

[earnest sage]

Still though, try not to say silly things like that, it'll just end up you being on the receiving end of something major

[molten frigate]

playing warframe fine and dandy

[hearty plinth]

Restart console and try again

[molten frigate]

my friend has always said that they dont moderate party chats on xbox so i guess hes wronf

[earnest sage]

You'd be surprised

[foggy skiff]

just say other silly things instead?

[hearty plinth]

Anybody could report on party chats i think

[earnest sage]

Exactly, instead of saying "kms", he could say "gg wp, we fought with honour"

[foggy skiff]

oh, I thought you meant using famished as a word for frustrated

[molten frigate]

imma just hit my friend whos tweaking with a poetic line written in the 11th century about valor and honor

[foggy skiff]

not that there's anything wrong with that, you do you BigBoss, no hate

[earnest sage]

Good, let me know the results

[foggy skiff]

"War. War never changes."

[molten frigate]

he lives 2 kms away from me i think we already know the results

[molten frigate]

"i dont want to set the world on fire

[earnest sage]

Obvious he's going to reply with "your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries"

If he doesn't, is he REALLY a friend?

[molten frigate]

LMAO CHECK DMS RQ

[near flower]

I hope Superliminal is good

About to play it

[foggy skiff]

do you believe in Joe Hendry

[earnest sage]

I believe in Joe Hendry

[molten frigate]

i got a warning for a very silly word

[earnest sage]

It happens, don't worry, the bot does it automatically

[foggy skiff]

say his name and he appears

[ripe grotto]

Should I try out Skyrim?

[foggy skiff]

yes

[earnest sage]

yes

[ripe grotto]

Isn’t it a do whatever you want style game?

[molten frigate]

so sand box

[modern orchid]

Elder Scrolls Online is one of the most beautiful games ive played. Just running through the map and seeing the areas.

[fallow moat]

100%

[ripe grotto]

I’m gonna try out Manor Lords atm

Will try out Skyrim later

[stray beacon]

After doing some digging, the vast majority of my 150+ game steam library will run on the deck, with most of them being marked as only playable for things like having to invoke the keyboard manually

[ripe grotto]

150+?!

Woah

I only got 48 games on ngl steam account

[tardy current]

Hell yeah xbox must of seen my message on Instagram because I'm unbanned

[ripe grotto]

Cool…

[tardy current]

[quasi echo]

mk so r/eyebleach could help....

[prisma cradle]

Is fallout 3 on series x currently the best way to play that game, even compared to the pc release?

[trail harness]

Cats are also good for that

maybe that's why the Internet loves to post cat pics so much /j

[ripe grotto]

I’m hoping to become a mod in my streamer friends server so I can get experience in modding for larger servers like this one

Helping out with things is what I’d like to do

[kind heron]

It really depends on if you want mods.

If you want to mod the game, PC is better. Otherwise playing on the X is probably better

[trail harness]

console commands too on pc

[kind heron]

Tbh Fallout 3 didn’t have much in way of great mods though. Most of the good mods for it came after those TTW fellas made the mod that puts F3 into New Vegas so you can play both in the same game.

[warm halo]

Helloo

[winter finch]

Ok so this is crazy

Nba 2k16 was crashing at the same spot for me, and I saw that the game wasn't working well for other series X players

So I had the idea to put it on a hard drive, as maybe the ssd was to fast or something, and now the game actually loads faster and so far doesn't crash

The loading faster doesnt make any sense but whatever

[stoic blaze]

guys Im thinking of getting a controller for my pc, should I get an xbox controller or a dualsense? idk which is more practical

[winter finch]

Personally I love the ps4 controller

[hearty plinth]

There is more support for xbox controller. Haptics is limited to maybe 10 to 20 games on pc

[stoic blaze]

was gonna add that to the list maybe not spending htat much and going for a ps4 controller would be good

[winter finch]

And dislike the ps5 controller, as I think it's uncomfortable

The xbox controller is good but ps4 controller is better in my opinion but I've played on Playstation for like 10 years before PC

[hearty plinth]

Plus games have various degrees of support of dual sense stuff plus it may or may not show ps buttons on screen

[winter finch]

Honestly just get a xbox or ps4 controller

[halcyon stratus]

Yea it is just a tiny bit too wide and ends up hurting my thumb if I play too long 😦

[prisma cradle]

Xbox controller is the best

[knotty pond]

how much in EURO will xbox standard cost?

[prisma cradle]

And I’m a ps4 owner for almost a decade and ps player since childhood

[hearty plinth]

Personally i want to to see the buttons reflect the controller im using but that just me

[halcyon stratus]

Steam said like 75% of Windows controller users were using an Xbox controller

[knotty pond]

why my feet smell on grape?

[winter finch]

I like xbox controllers for everything but shooting games, idk I just do better with Playstation

[knotty pond]

my feet smell on wine

[west pagoda]

nah bruv PS5 controller is where its at, and that is coming from xbox fan

[astral falcon]

@knotty pond we don't need to know thanks

[knotty pond]

hahahaha 😄

[winter finch]

Ps5 is a great immersion controller but I think it's unconfortable

[stoic blaze]

one question actually tho, does the dual aa battery last longer while an xbox is on standby compared to the normal battery on a dualsense when not using it? because I dont think I will be using a controller more than once or twice a week and I dont want to have to plug in a cable every time to play because its out of charge

[woeful shell]

Gary my beloved ♥️

[hearty plinth]

But haptics is limited on pc

[knotty pond]

how much will xbox gamepass standard cost in EURO, and can u buy it in 3 months or 1 year for lower sub cost?

[woeful shell]

The PS4 controller feels better, in my opinion.

[west pagoda]

PS5 controller feels so good I do love my Elite V2 but ps5 is goat

[hearty plinth]

I just wire it to controller

[halcyon stratus]

Fr I use my stadia controller on my computer more than any of my others

[stoic blaze]

I hear they are great

[west pagoda]

xbox Wolverine controller also very good buit quality clicky face buttons

[stoic blaze]

it sucks taht xbox and sony doesnt include the type c cable with the controller.. would be so much convenient

[knotty pond]

plsssssssssss

[nocturne quest]

Wait, there's a xbox wolverine controller?

[long maple]

thats case of the Golden Idol done, just need DLC whenever I get around to it

[stoic blaze]

razer wolverine not an actual wolverine

[west pagoda]

wolverine II mark 2

[knotty pond]

xbox gamepass standard is new subscription without day 1 release. How much it will cost in euro? and can u buy it annually for lower price (from official xbox page)

[long maple]

its not out till September wait for more info

[lunar panther]

Folks, I'm nudging this poll I posted early 🙂 I asked if any of you have received spam from bots in your Message Requests on Xbox in the last 2 weeks 🙂
Please respond to the poll!

[long maple]

I think its like 14.99 for US. so conversion on that.

[tired hare]

Voted thanks deek

[west pagoda]

btw guys are you getting spammed on Xbox with msgs about gift card

[knotty pond]

okay but no annual sub from official xbox console?

[west pagoda]

I keep getting msgs every day

[knotty pond]

why not, like psn does? maybe I would buy xbox if it had annual sub

i mean next gen, because now I am really considering psn6

Game Pass hasnt done annual subs for a long time. like you can only buy 1 - 3 months online.

[hollow vine]

Should I get ea play or game pass core

[lunar panther]

thank you!

[knotty pond]

from console u can only buy 3 months core, not usual gamepass

[lunar panther]

Did you vote on this poll? 🙂 #general-chat message

[west pagoda]

bro wow ty for this, them spammers need a nuke

[hearty plinth]

Depends u want ea games or play online

[west pagoda]

how does MS allow numerous acc creations that spammers abuse and msg ppl, ffs MS wake up

[hollow vine]

Hmm yea ima go with ea play

[lunar panther]

We are aware and looking into this. Thank you if you responded to the poll 🙂

[hollow vine]

Id only get core cus apparently to play gta online on Xbox one you have to buy gta premium edition and have Xbox game pass which is annoying

[limpid flicker]

Explain to me your plan for restricting account creation in such a way that spammers cannot sign up, but legitimate users who wish to play games can?

[hearty plinth]

If u want to play online in fifa or madden on console then need core or game pass standard when it releases in september

[hollow vine]

Jesus bro all these subscriptions just for games

I js might switch to pc gaming cus off all this. This is too much money out of my pocket

[limpid flicker]

Just one subscription. They're just changing around which ones are applicable to your need...

[open chasm]

Find it weird how PC Game Pass will still have Day One releases. Thought they'd axe that since the sub is cheaper than Standard.

[hollow vine]

So if I wanted to play madden 23 somefhing do I only need game pass core?

[burnt iris]

Still making my ears bleed with metal music
Slipknot eyeless on repeat 🔥

[fiery python]

It's cheaper because you don't need online.

[hollow vine]

Bc when I go on the Xbox store ea play is offering me much more games than core which is jus offering a couple games and online play

And I’m definitely not getting ultimate, can’t spend 17 dollars a month

[fiery python]

While it may be offering more games, most of those games are older versions of annual sports franchises.

[limpid flicker]

Core on its own is enough to let you play online. However, you will need to own a copy of Madden 23 to play Madden 23, I think.

[fiery python]

So not really 'much more games' when it's three Fifas, four Maddens, three NHLs etc

[hearty plinth]

Plus they have removed older sports titles from the service

As well its usually 6 to 12 months after release that games are added to ea play

[limpid flicker]

Looking into it, Madden 23 would only be available in the EA Play collection, which definiteluy isn't included with Core.

There's still a single subscription that can offer you what you want, it just costs a little more.

[tired hare]

I have been getting a lot of random spam messages, usually from new accounts and it will be at times when I havent posted in hours

[kind heron]

A lot of people have

[tired hare]

I got one asking for support on plugging in their Xbox

[night rapids]

Here or xbox?

[fiery python]

Answer this poll if you have - #general-chat message

[tired hare]

Their Xbox is unplugged and won't work

[cinder veldt]

If Rhinne likes Mojave, it's this

[sullen mist]

I used my phone as a Xbox controller

[tired hare]

here. At this point I beleive they are spam messages

[fiery python]

Ah, if it's here then don't answer that poll

[night rapids]

That poll is for xbox that's why I asked

[fiery python]

Just ignore people if it's here. If they're abusive, block and report. If they're just asking for help either ignore or tell them to post in #1091756150644555946

[hardy tiger]

i did that once

wasnt too fun

[sullen mist]

Ok

[halcyon stratus]

Xcode pinned but not slack? App Store and settings and launch pad pinned so it is a partial default install? But as a dev? What is even happening in this screenshot

[tired hare]

it's inflation

[pulsar quartz]

pc game pass now is almost as expensive as ultimate

[rugged oar]

Hi

[pulsar quartz]

why hasn't any other company done it?

[tired hare]

playstation did

[pulsar quartz]

i haven't seen nvidia raise their prices on GeForce now

[rugged oar]

Ok

[weary solar]

#rules 💩 3. Do not use profanities. Keep it clean and family friendly, do not attempt to bypass the word filter.

[night rapids]

I'm not seeing them being near the same price

[tired hare]

someone should tag it

[lyric jetty]

https://tenor.com/view/leonardo-dicaprio-rick-dalton-point-finger-pointing-hand-right-there-gif-16110706635095326137

[tired hare]

Also, include the fact that annual core is increased

[gray latch]

took the trash out and got two mosquito bites 😩

[pulsar quartz]

pc game pass will be 449inr now and ultimate was 549inr before

ultimate is freaking 849inr now

[tired hare]

its terrible

[fiery python]

Maybe if people stopped abusing trial codes all the time we'd see fewer price hikes.

[pulsar quartz]

it is for countries where dollar isn't the main currency

[gray latch]

very good point Rhinne

[tired hare]

im listening to a song from eric clapton i can't repeat on here

[lyric jetty]

Still cheaper than Sonys entry level which is $79.99

[limpid flicker]

OMG you said the quiet part loud.

[modern orchid]

People should have been expecting a price increase since Microsoft bought Activision and Blizzard. I knew they would do it.

[pulsar quartz]

ps plus is trash , they don't even give all the games for pc cloud (only games released for pc)

[tired hare]

by 5 bucks. ooooooooh wow

[limpid flicker]

I've been saying for a long time that if people cheat the system then they should expect prices to go up.

[tired hare]

playstation is fine. personally I don't play paid multiplayer too often

[lyric jetty]

Even without the acquisition I bet prices would have still gone up

All subscriptions have been going up recently

EA, Netflix and Spotify have all gone up since April

Disney+ just before

[pulsar quartz]

typical microsoft, i remember them saying "windows 10 will be the last operating software" but they eventually had to release windows 11 cause of the cash

[rustic abyss]

Hi guys I play on Xbox !!!!

[night rapids]

People are complaining about a 3$ increase. So a 5$ savings is good

[pulsar quartz]

Spotify? it hasn't in my region ig

[tired hare]

that doesnt justfify raising prices to play online.

[carmine sky]

PlayStation and Xbox’s paid subscriptions are over 2x nintendos

[night rapids]

And no additional benefits

[pulsar quartz]

you do know like many countries are having inflation and that 3$ makes a lot of difference?

[carmine sky]

Me neither

[tired hare]

I'm in the same position with price increases as with ToTK. First Switch game to be 70 bucks, and I couldn't care less about it

[lyric jetty]

Yeah they’re doing it on a region by region basis. In the uk Spotify has gone up by 20% in the last year

[tired hare]

only actual benefit is paid multiplayer across all tiers, and a downside of standard game pass no longer having day one titles

[open chasm]

Yeah, Game Pass Console was a filler tier just to entice people to buy Ultimate lmao

[lyric jetty]

It was £9.99 for years and years, now it’s £11.99 with no additional perks

[night rapids]

I'm not saying anything about costs. I'm replying that 5$ is a lot of savings if 3$ increase is a negative thing. I'm literally agreeing with you

[tired hare]

I mean it was the same price as Live Gold

[pulsar quartz]

they give some of the cheapest spotify here , Spotify (bless them) actually took into factory the purchasing power parity and adjusted price according to it , now they give Spotify student in 0.71$

[gray latch]

gaming is a luxury hobby tbh

[tired hare]

At the time with PS Now, that service did have free online provided the game was on the service. if it was a game not on Now, you don't get PS Plus

[open chasm]

Yeah, it definitely goes back on the Game Pass promise, but hey, now devs won't get demolished for not meeting profit expectations because of being forced to put their games on Game Pass day one

[tired hare]

on a technicality, they still will be going day one. but not for an extra 5 bucks a month you get access to a small pool of titles being added to the service on Day One. Major titles, but a smaller comparison compared to what else is in the collection.

[night rapids]

I know what the benefits are. At least there are benefits with the increase, unlike those that Funny mentionef

[tired hare]

its very interesting to watch how people defend raising prices, to play over the internet

[pulsar quartz]

the only thing I care in gamepass is cod finally being added , cod is so hella expensive, I was so happy of it being added to gamepass now after the price hike , can't say the same

[open chasm]

It's why I built a PC man, was sick of subscriptions lol

[tired hare]

Game Pass as a encompassed service is not pretty much like PS Plus

[gray latch]

counterpoint: it is boring watching people be all pikachu face over prices going up

[tired hare]

i keep it real

[pulsar quartz]

bunch of snobs who live in a 1st world country and never had experienced poverty , that's what they are

[night rapids]

Isn't it still cheaper to play COD on game pass than buying it?

[lunar panther]

you can be sad, but don't be surprised

[fiery python]

It's also possible to be disappointed by a price increase, while still understanding why its necessary

[pulsar quartz]

yes

[gray latch]

if you are experiencing poverty, please locate your priorities

[lunar panther]

I want my $2 dozen of eggs back in the grocery store

[tired hare]

The only difference between Ultimate and Premium is that Premium adds in older PS games from PS1-3 and PSP (or anything with remastered in the name), and game trials, plus PS3 streaming (which hopefully, they replace with emulated PS3 titles on the store), plus game streaming

[lyric jetty]

Unless you’re wanting to play it the full year

[gray latch]

I can tell you back when I was going to the food bank, I bought zero games

[tired hare]

Ultimate now will add Day One titles, access to both console and PC game pass, and cloud streaming

[lyric jetty]

Then it makes more sense to drop the $70 for the purchase (unless of course you have gamepass already anyway)

[hearty plinth]

Bo6 day one is only for ultimate users then

[tired hare]

it depends on the consumer when it comes to a title like COD

[open chasm]

My only wish for Game Pass was that they fragmented services. What if someone just wanted xCloud to stream games to their phone?

[tired hare]

For an example like a new Fallout game, I think its worth it more to buy a copy knowing how long of a game that is

[limpid flicker]

I dunno about you, but at such times I have stuff I already bought to play.

[gray latch]

exactly, I had my PS back then and I played the heck out of it

[open chasm]

Yeah, backlogs are the way if you're really in trouble.

[tired hare]

It's more of the return on investment for these games. If you spend a LOT of time in a game like COD, it's cheaper to buy a game for 70 dollars, than to invest 20 dollars per month into the game after 6 months

[limpid flicker]

And this is why I buy "too many" games during the good years. 😅

[modern orchid]

Ive got enough games to keep me busy for several years.

[gray latch]

goddamn, you're right

[open chasm]

• $10-20/month on subscriptions

[tired hare]

yeah, it can vary

[open chasm]

Because games like CoD basically require you to be online

[hearty plinth]

Plus cloud isnt readily available in all countries as well that cloud isnt good quality for all

[tired hare]

not all the time. it's both single and multi

[limpid flicker]

If I were into games that were primarily online, maybe my feelings would shift a little.

[lyric jetty]

Unless you just want to vibe on Warzone then it’s free 😆

[pulsar quartz]

campaigns exist

[open chasm]

Yeah but most people I know buy CoD for MP, not campaign

[tired hare]

true. I go for a mix of it, but lean on singleplayer more

[pulsar quartz]

more like transcend into madness

[limpid flicker]

Pretty much the only game I play online regularly is Warframe.

[tired hare]

Fornite, mostly rn

[hearty plinth]

Dont bo6 u need to be online all the time for either mp campaign and zombies?

[modern orchid]

Divison 2 is the only main online only game I play. Occasionally ESO but thats when im bored.

[pulsar quartz]

vibe?? i sweat 99% of the time , then only time when im not sweating is during building loadouts

[modern orchid]

Yea.

Texture streaming or something.

[lyric jetty]

Just Connection, Not subscription

Subscription for multiplayer and online zombies however

[quiet badger]

Is the X-Box Game Pass code eltmid or regular, which comes in Discord for free?

[fiery python]

It's a trial for PC Game Pass

[quiet badger]

Yes, what kind?

[pulsar quartz]

pc gamepass lmao

[fiery python]

I just told you what kind

[pulsar quartz]

there's core standard pc gamepass and ultimate

[fiery python]

Standard doesn't exist yet

[pulsar quartz]

ye it's coming soon

[open chasm]

In the wake of price increases, make sure to take advantage of the 3:2 Conversions.

60 * 3 = 180. Converted to Ultimate, $90 per year.

$50 for 3 months of Ultimate is the best deal officially offered by MS at the moment.

$50 * 4 = $200 just for one year of Ultimate.

AT THE MOMENT, before the prices increase. Still will be a better bang for your buck even then.

[pulsar quartz]

i don't have 90$ to spend on games , that's very expensive

[lyric jetty]

Is it still 3:2 I thought they changed it at some point

[hearty plinth]

Dont they offer 1 month ultimate?

[open chasm]

I remember when you could just buy 3 years of Live Gold and then a single month of Ultimate and it converted all of it to Ultimate at no extra cost. 3:2 still exists though.

[pulsar quartz]

can't I get 3 months pc gamepass for cheap before price rises?

[surreal hamlet]

I wish Xbox would let me sub to 12 months ultimate instead of 6

[tired hare]

Price increase is too much
Nobody going to buy especially since there is no call of duty

[pulsar quartz]

there is

[open chasm]

Yeah. Can't imagine why the poor $3 trillion company can't push 12 month Ultimate deals out. Core is the best they can do and they don't even provide the 12 month option on the Xbox digital storefront, you gotta buy it from a retailer.

[pulsar quartz]

bo 6 is coming on gamepass and it'll get beta access too

[knotty pond]

will I be able to play forza motorsport with standard multiplayer?

[tired hare]

What about previois 20 cods

[pulsar quartz]

because they certainly cheated their way upto 3trillion

[hearty plinth]

That would cost close to or more than 200 a year lol

[pulsar quartz]

they won't be added , idk they could be in future

[hearty plinth]

Only bo6 confirmed

[open chasm]

They can definitely make a bundle deal. 12 months of Core is $60, but one month is $10, which would add up to $120. They discount it in bundles.

[tired hare]

240 a year

[knotty pond]

does standard gamepass will have same games as on regular console gamepass now?

[fiery python]

Yes

[knotty pond]

cool 😄

[pulsar quartz]

get pc gamepass if you're on pc , it's much cheaper and it gets the job done

[open chasm]

Has it been disclosed how long it will take for 1st party releases to launch on Game Pass Standard if not on day one like Ultimate has?

[sage ice]

Not yet

[pulsar quartz]

my country doesn't even support cloud and vpn justt throttles so hard , i don't even care about ultimate

[minor garnet]

India???

[tired hare]

Still the 20 dollar price isn't justified
It's supposed to be ultimate yet u don't get all games u don't get any dlc u don't even get subscriptions in first party games like fallout first and they should've given a single free random game per month that would encourage me to keep subbing

[knotty pond]

13x70 for 1 and half year

maybe they will be adding more games

so 20 euro per game

[pulsar quartz]

yes

[minor garnet]

Same bro

[open chasm]

Single free random game? My brother in Managed Democracy, you have over 100+ games already available on the subscription

[minor garnet]

Have you tried cloud gaming?

[sage ice]

Yes

[minor garnet]

(In India)

[pulsar quartz]

tried connecting to nord and proton , very bad connection

[minor garnet]

Ohh

[sage ice]

Never been there.

[minor garnet]

Not playable?

[pulsar quartz]

i have a 800mbps connection so shouldn't be that bad idk why

[minor garnet]

800mbps is a LOT

[pulsar quartz]

you could but graphics and stuff will be horrible and also don't even think about getting a free vpn

[minor garnet]

You should visit once

[minor garnet]

Ohhh

[pulsar quartz]

he meant as in never used vpn lmao

[minor garnet]

I see

[pulsar quartz]

i already had nord

[minor garnet]

I'm search for ultimate codes but can't find any

[pulsar quartz]

idk how it throttles cloud so much , i use it for p2p and it's very fast

[summer magnet]

@pulsar quartz Stop discussing bypassing region restrictions using VPN

[minor garnet]

Does Gta 5 work on cloud?

[pulsar quartz]

gta 5 is removed from gamepass

[minor garnet]

Oh alr

[pulsar quartz]

it got readded but again removed

typical rockstar but you could buy it for cheap on steam

i got it for 3000 on epic in 2018

[long maple]

publishers choose how long they want their games in Game Pass for. GTA has been in like 3 times now

[pulsar quartz]

then it was free in 2020 😭🙏

[minor garnet]

I had free gta 5 on epic lol

[loud burrow]

What do boosters get

[pulsar quartz]

nothing

[minor garnet]

But I lost the access to that gmail

[loud burrow]

Dam

[long maple]

nothing here, its an official/verified server got most the boosts etc

[pulsar quartz]

lucky but I did reedem that in 3 alts and gave it to my friends lmao

[minor garnet]

Lol that's great

[lyric scaffold]

hello guys

[minor garnet]

Let's hope so it'll be added back

[pulsar quartz]

(i sold it to them for half price because they were stupid enough to not know how to make accounts)

[limber carbon]

Oh I hope it doesn't get added back.

[minor garnet]

XD

[pulsar quartz]

why , can't you download it youself?

[minor garnet]

I've an potato pc

[pulsar quartz]

why? because online lobbies will be flooded with modders?

[minor garnet]

I3 6th gen

[pulsar quartz]

you can get it running on 720p or 480p

[minor garnet]

I'm hoping to play it on cloud

[lyric scaffold]

does somebody else cant open the xbox accessories app on the pc? (win11)

[minor garnet]

Fr?

[alpine jolt]

Do devs get paid to put their games on game pass?

[limber carbon]

It's been on too many times on GP.

[minor garnet]

12 gb ram and No gpu btw

[fiery python]

Of course they do

[pulsar quartz]

ye i had a person on discord who ran gta 5 in 720p in i5 4th gen so idk how it'll be in i3 6th

[minor garnet]

He must've an gpu

[pulsar quartz]

nope , integrated

[minor garnet]

Ohh I'll try it once

[alpine jolt]

I just wasn't aware how the system worked

[pulsar quartz]

just turn off advanced graphics

[minor garnet]

I'll do it in low graphics

[pulsar quartz]

and everything on low and on full-screen

[minor garnet]

Alright buddy

[pulsar quartz]

full-screen gets me to like 120 fps

[minor garnet]

What's your specs?

[pulsar quartz]

windowed limits it to 80

[pulsar quartz]

3070 i7 12700k 16gb ddr5

[minor garnet]

Damn

That's a Very high end computer

[pulsar quartz]

it's mid end

[alpine jolt]

I think my monitor only has a 60hz refresh rate so it doesnt matter what im running games at

[minor garnet]

As an i3 user it's high end for me lmao

[pulsar quartz]

high end starts from 4070 or something

[minor garnet]

How much Rs did it cost?

[pulsar quartz]

oh I had those days , i used to run a i5 3rd gen and gt 710 laptop back in 2012

[minor garnet]

Ohhh

[pulsar quartz]

near 1.5

[narrow timber]

pretty sure that that's a high end computer

[minor garnet]

Great

I'll build one once I start earning

[pulsar quartz]

it can't run 4k

only 4k capable machines are high end now

[narrow timber]

can't run 30 on 4k?

[pulsar quartz]

idk my monitor doesn't even support 4k

[narrow timber]

so it's just ur moniter

[pulsar quartz]

it's 1440p

[pulsar quartz]

i don't think 3070 can do 4k , i mean 3080 struggled

[narrow timber]

2+#7$&$8

[hearty plinth]

It can technically do 4k but not well

[tired hare]

it can in tons of games, just not the latest

[pulsar quartz]

i saw some gameplays , it does 30 fps

[narrow timber]

I'm not familiar with Nvidia graphics name scheme

[cinder veldt]

How's that related to it being in gamepass?

[pulsar quartz]

ye 2023 AAA are very heavy , alan wake 2 , last of us .etc

[hearty plinth]

Older games like fallout 3 yeah

[pulsar quartz]

gta 5 in gamepass = banned modders getting easy access to online after exploiting trial gamepass = them returning to gta 5 again

[cinder veldt]

There is no modders on Xbox consoles past Xbox 360

[pulsar quartz]

xx90(ti) are the best cards in market
xx50 are the lowest end in the same generation

[pulsar quartz]

i meant for pc

[narrow timber]

ohhhhhhhh I get it now, thank you

[pulsar quartz]

and ye those days of console modding stopped after PS3 and Xbox 360

[cinder veldt]

Good thing it isn't available via Microsoft on PC

[hearty plinth]

I know gta5 is popular but it has been on sale a lot so players might as well buy it instead of asking when will gta5 come back to game pass

[pulsar quartz]

there's xx50 , xx60 , xx70, xx80 and xx90
and for eg. xx50 ti> xx50 super > base xx50

ti super > if it exists (for eg. 4080)

im thinking of getting a 4080 ti super but ill wait till 50 series launches

[hearty plinth]

Don't get me started on x90 those cost like at least 2k

[pulsar quartz]

3090 ti went to like 5k+ on ebay during lockdown 😂

i saw some selling for 10k

[hearty plinth]

I wouldnt be surprised if 3060 when for 2k at that time lol

[cinder veldt]

It did basically

[pulsar quartz]

i mean 1650 laptops were 1k during that time so self explanatory

even 10 series were expensive

[cinder veldt]

The 1080ti went crazy just because it still is somewhat capable

[pulsar quartz]

outperforms 3060 base

😂

[cinder veldt]

Raw performance sure, but that's not where the card is failing. Architecture

[pulsar quartz]

ye 3060 has software advantages and especially dlss

[cinder veldt]

But when you click on it?

[pulsar quartz]

sorry im currently nuking the xbox hq

[hearty plinth]

Thankfully i buult my pc in late 2022. Only cost me 1700 of a 4k capable gaming pc

[pulsar quartz]

specs?

[hearty plinth]

Amd 5600, 32 gigs ram ddr4 at 3600 and 6800xt

[pulsar quartz]

damn 6800xt

high end card

[cinder veldt]

Wait a minute that's basically my PC except GPU is worse

How about no

[dusk grail]

My opinion sorry???

[hearty plinth]

Cost me 500 to 600. Reason i didnt go 3080 cause 3080 cost like 1k or more plus i brpught parts during black friday

[cinder veldt]

Oh thought you were asking if it had it

[pulsar quartz]

get amd if you're into pure gaming

[hearty plinth]

Which i am

[pulsar quartz]

amd has best bang for bucka nd fps per dollar but nvidia gets dub in software optimisation

[cinder veldt]

Nvidia gets W in encoding

[hearty plinth]

Especially with their cuda cores

[pulsar quartz]

dlss 3.7 fg is way more powerful than fsr 3 rn

[fiery python]

I'm more familiar with Nvidia cards so I just stick with those.

[pulsar quartz]

and can't forget cuda

[hearty plinth]

But at least we get upscalers now. If anyone remember before upscalers u either meet pc specs or upgrade lol

[prisma cradle]

Can people gift og xbox games?

[fiery python]

I don't think so.

[cinder veldt]

Don't think so

[narrow timber]

dang same response

[prisma cradle]

Ok so people need to buy them solo

I want to buy ninja gaiden black

How about xbox 360

[raw quail]

Yeah no co-op purchase

[narrow timber]

how do I check what Xbox 360 discs work on the series x

[fiery python]

https://www.xbox.com/en-GB/games/backward-compatibility

[narrow timber]

👍

[hearty plinth]

Not sure about 360 games. Xb1 or series games yes only if u live in the same country

[dense relic]

Are original xbox xbox server still up

[fiery python]

No

[hearty plinth]

Only those that are backwards compatible

[dense relic]

Rip

[prisma cradle]

Someone sells ninja gaiden black disc for 100$

[hearty plinth]

Skip

[prisma cradle]

I check on the store its 10$

And still available digitally

[clear coyote]

Anybody forza and chill

[sweet harbor]

eBay is my goto for 360 games the delisted ones like Transformers and Spiderman

but Deadpool prices just smh

[shadow nova]

The 360 has Spider-Man?

[sweet harbor]

well hello

[shadow nova]

hi

[wicked flax]

a bunch

[hearty plinth]

Amazing 1 and 2

[wicked flax]

web of shadows is the superior venom game.

[sweet harbor]

Web of Shawods most expensive one being the oldest one

[limpid flicker]

Yeah like... 5 different games right?

[edgy patrol]

Hello everyone i have a genuine question?

[sweet harbor]

Dang I’ve been fishing for WoS for a while now

[raw quail]

It has the one with multiverse Spider-Men right?

[wicked flax]

shattered dimensions yeah

[hearty plinth]

So 360 store has around 18 to 19 days before it goes bye bye

[limpid flicker]

You probably mean Shattered Dimensions which also has a sequel.

[raw quail]

It had like a noir Spider guy

[edgy patrol]

Is it pointless to buy a one s and should i just buy a series s ?

[limpid flicker]

That's the one I and the other person mentioned, yes.

[fiery python]

Series S is the better choice

[hearty plinth]

Series s most devs stop development on xb1 games

[limpid flicker]

That would be my advice if you can, yes. Buy Series S.

[hearty plinth]

Also skip 512 series s if u can

[raw quail]

Sol how many tenths of hours have you played TFD so far?

[limpid flicker]

Checking now.

[cinder veldt]

And 7 until I start buying

[raw quail]

I’ll keep trying to get people to play it until someone tells me to stop

[limpid flicker]

About 30 tenths of an hour. I do still want to play it more, though. Tonight I have an evil headache.

[raw quail]

Awww

[fallow moat]

I basically have all the games I wanted for Xbox 360…

[limpid flicker]

Feels like someone stabbed behind my ear with an ice pick.

[raw quail]

Feel free to ping me anywhere if you want to play some time

[edgy patrol]

Thanks all i really wanted to do was play some older games but i guess its pointless to buy something thatll stop being supported

[fallow moat]

Get well sol.

[hearty plinth]

U could buy any of the backwards compat games on series storefront

[limpid flicker]

Ok so my reasoning is that Series S plays all the XBOX One games except the ones that use Kinect. It's almost a complete replacement, and it plays newere games too.

[hearty plinth]

Willing to spend like 2k plus lol

[fallow moat]

Dang.

[limpid flicker]

Series S|X and PS5 are both like the super-version of the previous console.

[hearty plinth]

I guestimate to include indie titles as well

[edgy patrol]

Ok i understand what youre saying go for the big boy to get all the perks

[prisma cradle]

Okay since we’re nearing the summer sale, is OG xbox game and 360 game would get the sale too?

[shadow nova]

X > PS5 > S

[hearty plinth]

Probably final permanent discount on 360 games soon i think

[cinder veldt]

They already are, some more coming soon

[tired hare]

its worth getting the newer system for older games anyway, cuz it loads faster and the ui is way snappier

[tidal topaz]

Sorry about that. I was aiming somewhere else /s. Also, feel better soon

[limpid flicker]

The theoretical difference between PS5 and Series X doesn't seem to matter too much in practice.

[limpid flicker]

Yeah, I had a mosquito on my head, right?

[prisma cradle]

I don’t have gamepass, so it didn’t show yet

[hearty plinth]

Series and xb1 will only play backwards compatible games from 360

[shadow nova]

It’s more about the games you play tbh

[tidal topaz]

Sure. Let's go with that

[prisma cradle]

Is ninja gaiden black on discount?

[fluid depot]

Hi

[fallow moat]

I have Destiny, LOTR Conquest, WWE 2k14, those 3 I wanted most and I have a few more

[hearty plinth]

No idea google it

Ninja gaiden is 1 of the hardest games even on easy. I see it as a proto to dark souls

[lean wing]

Does anyone think that xbox dead??

I’m mostly concerned for the lack of Xbox Series X/S console sales compared to the PS5

[limpid flicker]

Yes, the brand that owns CoD is dead. /s

[cinder veldt]

Only on the 360 store

[long maple]

Xbox is an ecosystem now.. all devices add together its not just consoles

[kind heron]

This is a crazy thought, but maybe the multimillion dollar company knows more about business strategy than random dudes on discord

[prisma cradle]

I don’t have 360

[raw quail]

No it’s totally dead. The server is closing in a few minutes

[hearty plinth]

Plus summer sale didnt start yet

[limpid flicker]

Trillion. They're worth multiple Trillions now.

[hearty plinth]

Then why ask about 360 games

[long maple]

yeah we got a small teaser from the Sale, I did notice it ends on the 17th

[kind heron]

Especially since the only thing those dudes ever talk about is “console sales” when consoles are sold at a loss with the money made off of online services and games. 💀

[gray latch]

Xbox! dead since 2001 (trust me bro)

[prisma cradle]

To play through back compat

I want to play ninja gaiden on series x

[hearty plinth]

Only via backwards compatible and wont any to it

[split obsidian]

Hi

[ocean otter]

Don’t be patronizing

[tired hare]

anyone getting a temporary network problem?

[split obsidian]

Hello

[raw quail]

Hello Lemur (tough)

[prisma cradle]

For series x I just need to buy it here right? https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/ninja-gaiden-black/C17KKS83S9GS

I’m a bit confused on how to buy og games on series x

[limpid flicker]

The backwards compatible games you can play are all in the store you can access via the web or on the console.

[raw quail]

Seems like it

[tired hare]

yes, marketplace in the browser is the old 360 store thats shutting down

[edgy patrol]

I honestly just want SKATE 3 & FABLE 3

[prisma cradle]

Will back compat games got discounted on annual summer sale?

Will just wait till next week then

[long maple]

yeah we have one more 360 sale on the 16th. before the shutdown happens end of the month... back compat stuff is on the new store though.

[lofty willow]

Can I stack 4, 3 -month ultimate subs onto an existing game pass ultimate subscription? Trying to extend before the price increase

[tired hare]

maybe, they rarely go on sale

[hearty plinth]

Yeah

[long maple]

yes you can stack upto 36months.

[lofty willow]

That’s great thanks, mine expires April 2025 after I did the 3 year thing before but I’m guessing the 3 month one to stack is the cheapest way

[hearty plinth]

I dont think the backwards compatible games will go on sale after the 360 store closes but that is just my opinion

[limpid flicker]

You can.

[raw quail]

Aren’t they technically forwards compatible games? 🙃

[lean wing]

X > PS5 > S > One X > PS4 Pro > PS4 > One S = VCR

[shadow nova]

ps4 slim & ps5 slim left the chat

[lofty willow]

Is it cheaper to add on a game pass core sub? So it converts?

[shadow nova]

I think the new ps5 pro are gonna be better than the X

[lean wing]

Same specs, no change

[fiery python]

No such console has been announced.

But obviously if a Pro model released it would be better than the current consoles. That's kinda the point of them.

[shadow nova]

I saw people online say it’s gonna be 60 percent faster than the normal ps5

[raw quail]

They made a PS5 slim right?

[shadow nova]

Yea

[fiery python]

Again no such console has been announced so don’t discuss leaks and rumours please.

[shadow nova]

how do you know

[fiery python]

Because I read the news.

[limpid flicker]

I think with the recent changes it will work out the same. 3 months of GP Core = 2 months of GP Ultimate, and I think that sorta makes the price the same.

[shadow nova]

alright bro since when do they announce ps5 releases on the news

[lean wing]

PS5 Slim = PS5 and PS4 Slim = PS4

[shadow nova]

no slim is weaker

[lofty willow]

Thank you

[fiery python]

All the time. Gaming news and press

[last lintel]

ello

[shadow nova]

damn bro gaming has gotten so big nowadays

[fiery python]

Sadly knowledge has not kept pace

[last lintel]

/membercount

[hearty plinth]

Gaming industry is like a multi billion business

[limpid flicker]

Didn't gaming overtake the movies about a decade ago?

[prisma cradle]

With gamepass price hike I think I would be buying games again

[fiery python]

https://tenor.com/view/vegeta-its-over9000-gif-14419267

[fiery python]

I won't. Game Pass is still waaaay cheaper.

[lean wing]

How?? They have the same hardware.

One is just smaller than the other

[raw quail]

111418

[fiery python]

It's not at all.

[limpid flicker]

You? Not buying games? I press X to doubt. 😉

[long maple]

yeah I sometimes buy games in sales. but I got tons of long games like 40+ hours still in my backlog that I have hardly played or not at all.

[fiery python]

I meant the ones on Game Pass 😄

[prisma cradle]

I will buy third party games first, then buy their first party a year later if they aren’t in GP standard yet

Like this holiday would be busy playing Dragon Age Veilguard

Avowed can wait until it appear on GP standard

[hearty plinth]

Mostly on sw outlaws ac shadows stalker 2 and indy jones

[last lintel]

thank

[umbral flax]

Playstations solo in the war

[hearty plinth]

No console wars please

[tired hare]

Gamerpic wont change been 3 days

[raw quail]

What are you going to do with this knowledge?

[last lintel]

fun fact: the other day I was at thrift store and I bought a couple items. I needed a box to move the stuff with, and when I got to the old boxes and paper bin I picked an xbox 360 box lmao

[hearty plinth]

Does it work

[limpid flicker]

Nobody here can do anything about your XBOX Live account. I think you need to contact support via the website.

[last lintel]

try applying again?

[tired hare]

Did like 3 times lol( not inappropriate) and app is updated to date

[night rapids]

3 times in 3 days ? Might be why its taking time to be approved

[raw quail]

Or maybe it's a bad picture that can't be approved?

[tired hare]

Not inappropriate its just a pic of a game

[meager yacht]

It’s just the shop that’s shutting down on 360 right? Ucan still play online right ?

[spring spear]

So how many months can I currently stack before they change the limit? And when the new limit comes into effect for Gamepass. Will any months after 13 months on my account be erased or will it not affect it?

[hearty plinth]

If the servers r still up i suppose?

[long maple]

thats for Game Pass Console as its going to be phased out. I believe everything else stays the same.

[sage pulsar]

what's the replacment for it?

[long maple]

Game Pass Standard in September.. same as before but with Online and no day one releases

[hearty plinth]

So only ultimate has day one releases

[spring spear]

So if I extend my Gamepass for two more years or three more years will it get null invoided if they implement the 13 month max limit on Gamepass?

[limpid flicker]

The new limit only applies to 'console tier', is that what you have?

[spring spear]

Yes i have the series.

[fiery python]

It's 'null and void'.

And no. If you stack three years now, they won't remove that from you if new limits are added in future.

[limpid flicker]

Well I meant the type of subscription not what you play on.

[spring spear]

I pay for ultimate

[limpid flicker]

Then the new limit won't apply to you anyway.

[spring spear]

So if I stack three years from now it won’t apply to me correct? Just making sure lol

[limpid flicker]

Won't apply to you.

[fiery python]

No because there is no lower limit being applied to Ultimate.

[hearty plinth]

It only affects game pass for console

[spring spear]

Ok that’s what I was wondering

Before I bought. Cause that’s what ima do before they increase the price lol

[open flume]

they also literally addressed that in the text

like in the actual text from microsoft

[hearty plinth]

I think my ultimate expire in june or may next year.

[open flume]

i gotta get to stackin

[hearty plinth]

So 3 years core plus 1 month ultimate equals 2 years ultimate right?

[ocean otter]

Same

[open flume]

wild that i havent thought about this in 3 years lol

[fiery python]

Mine is currently expiring September 2026, so I'll buy another year in September before the increase

[halcyon stratus]

The change is only relevant to Console edition

[sage ice]

I have year code I am waiting to redeem lol

[halcyon stratus]

I’ve seen panic about “stacking” in multiple places and it doesn’t make sense lol

[hearty plinth]

Yep

[fiery python]

Makes perfect sense. People don't read.

[sage ice]

panic is not reading fully

[halcyon stratus]

There is no reason to “stack” a dead product

[halcyon stratus]

Well yes sigh

[hearty plinth]

At least standard game pass seems reasonable for its price

[sage pulsar]

how much did u get it for? and where did u get it from?

[open flume]

"Nothing makes sense when you choose not to understand it."

[sage ice]

I didnt buy it

[sage pulsar]

then?

[halcyon stratus]

Alt: everything makes sense if you assume everyone is dumb

[hearty plinth]

That screenshot is on support page

[sage ice]

if you must know, Xbox sent it to me.

[sage pulsar]

huh? what's going on

[spring spear]

Wait I got a question. So my friend and me who have Xbox consoles share game pass ultimate. My other friend who I play with is on pc. Can he share my game pass subscription so he can still play too?

[sage pulsar]

they gave it as in for a giveaway?

[sage ice]

not really a giveaway. more a thank you

[tired hare]

nothing like feeling smug superiority to children on discord, ammirite?

[sage pulsar]

damn..ur lucky for that 1 year code njoy

[open flume]

then why you ask your question LOL

[hearty plinth]

No. Gameshare does not work on pc. Plus gameshare only if u live together

[spring spear]

dang

[open flume]

i need whatever dollar amount msft wants to charge to do a full family share for game pass. pc, cloud, console, up to 4 consoles in the home. IP link them i dont care. charge me $200/yr i dont care. just make it frickin happen

[vale lichen]

Yo wus good

[noble sigil]

Do I have w rizz chat?

[tired hare]

What

[sterile sequoia]

what

[sage ice]

that would be nice

[open flume]

l rizz no fanum

[tired hare]

What language is this

[noble sigil]

On ohio?

[open flume]

ohio for sure

[long maple]

ah yeah that friends n family thing. I do hope it releases at some point.. but by then my teenagers would have jobs and hopefully moved out lol

[noble sigil]

For skibidi?

[open flume]

on business

[sage ice]

odd how you can share 365 but not game pass

[sage pulsar]

what ru talking about?

[long tinsel]

Toilet

[open flume]

THIS! and msft 365 should be ALL msft

xbox included

[sage ice]

I would pay for 365 Ult

[granite verge]

Same

[last lintel]

why dont they release powerpoint for the xbox 360 and call it microsoft 360

or xbox 365

[sage pulsar]

skibidi is toilet?

[tired hare]

I would want excel more

[sage pulsar]

which language is it?

[sage ice]

Excel on Xbox sounds painful

[thin nimbus]

pass interference on hail mary has been called a few times but it's almost never called is there a reason why?

[lunar tartan]

It’s so moist outside

[tired hare]

Only painful if you have to type with a controller

[lunar tartan]

Because it’s not pass interference

[versed swan]

watchmen movie trailer :o

[lunar tartan]

Everyone having their hands up for the ball doesn’t equal pass interference. There has to be some sort of action that makes it completely impossible for the player it’s intended for to catch it in order for that penalty to be called

[mellow roost]

Like tackling the person trying to catch or something.

[tired hare]

Just never touch or tackle tom brady

[raw quail]

Are you still on the plane Kylie? c:

[mellow roost]

Nah, safely back home.

[bold prawn]

Hello, I dont have a active gamepass sub but want to get it. What's the cheapest way to do it

[sage ice]

Microsoft Rewards if you have the points

[bold prawn]

naa dont have those

[mellow roost]

That's more or less the only way.

[sage pulsar]

buy a trial version of it if u did not have it previously

[mellow roost]

I mean unless you find some random bingo hall doing a raffle for a code, and like...yeah I doubt it.

[sage ice]

https://tenor.com/view/bingo-pointing-stars-smile-gif-15110633

[bold prawn]

I read things about buying gamepass core/gold and converting it to ultimate

[last lintel]

i got like 4 xbox original games for 5 eur at the local Cex

[weary solar]

#rules 💩 3. Do not use profanities. Keep it clean and family friendly, do not attempt to bypass the word filter.

[bold prawn]

is that not a thing?

[sage pulsar]

yes it is

[charred mulch]

The math isn't mathing here

[meager yacht]

Xbox trying to get all consoles players to pc ???

[charred mulch]

You told me gold is defunct, so why is gold on here?

[lunar tartan]

Because some people still have gold from before it was changed

[meager yacht]

$15 for xbox standard no day 1 games $12 on pc u get everything lol

[fiery python]

Because some stores may still have Gold cards

But they give Core when redeemed.

[mellow roost]

Plus I rarely use the word "defunct," so that was probably not me.

[lunar tartan]

When did it change from gold to core? It hasn’t been that long has it?

[long maple]

September I think

[charred mulch]

Defunct is a synonym of multiple words
I can only think of defunct rn but it will come to me

[latent blaze]

is there way to play gta v for free

[lunar tartan]

Yeah so not even a year old at this point you could stack gold too right?

[mellow roost]

No.
