general-chat

[merry palm]

just constantly upgrade to the last gen one 👀 right when they swap so you get the time where its back compat and save the dollarydoos.

how i do phones basically lol

its not always the bestest tech, but its cheaper for sure

[alpine cave]

I don't know why but I didn't understand that , r u saying swap everytime a new gen comes out

[daring tusk]

hello ppl

[merry palm]

always staying one gen back from current.

[alpine cave]

Ah yes of course , but why

[merry palm]

if that makes more sense

[tired hare]

Indeed, you never know what the future holds but it's def best to enjoy the present.

[merry palm]

so you get newer things that get the new games but without the heftier cost of the brand new item

good if you cant afford the newest tech

[alpine cave]

Ah i see , so I'm basically doing the right thing by staying on xbox one s right now , and then I should switch to series when the next gen comes out haha

[tired hare]

Everyone have a good rest of your day. Dinner time.

[merry palm]

i like to swap right when the new thing comes out bc then people are trading in their old devices

brings the value down 😂

[alpine cave]

Ah cheap trades cuz they wanna buy the new one

[merry palm]

yep

[alpine cave]

You too

Not a bad idea

[merry palm]

i bought a 3ds like this for 100 that way.

its now my pretty thing

[queen lotus]

That DS is $500 used now

[merry palm]

nice

not selling it but, good to know i guess 😂

got it right when the switch launched so there were so many options to choose from and i just picked the pretty one

i am currently saving up for the xbox ally handheld but its gonna take me a while probably

[short mantle]

I still have my Poke Ball 2DS XL in the box. I'm not sure how much it’s worth nowadays, but I'm sure it'll be worth even more in 5-10+ years.

[merry palm]

super cute

i miss the ds physical format tbh

much easier to toss in a bag safely

[idle spear]

3DS systems are worth a lot now glad I got one when I did because no way I’d get one now

[merry palm]

same

and mine works wonderfully

only downside is the cost of games

[short mantle]

We sell them at work, but most of the ones we've received had some sort of slight damage. Scratches, chips, and styluses that don't match the handheld.

[merry palm]

makes sense given their age

ive never really cared if they get a bit dinged up, im not looking to resell mine though

i just dont really k now what games to look to buy lol

i mostly borrow from the library now

[crystal copper]

How to turn on xbox

[tired hare]

[merry palm]

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/free-to-play

[keen flame]

ok thank you

do you want to join my live stream

[merry palm]

nope

and thats a slippery slope to self advertising :)

please dont do that

[queen lotus]

That’s wild, went from not knowing how to turn on a Xbox to streamer.

[gray cave]

I actually choked on my drink reading this, lol.

[merry palm]

ngl i assumed they just were trolling on the not knowing how to turn on the xboox

but also gaming meant i just figured they would figure it out themselves if not

[gray cave]

I'm looking at your profile and I see the category "Board", what exactly is that and how does one acquire it?

[merry palm]

I just got it early from discord, not sure its its a testing thing or a new thing

most peeps dont seem to have it yet, but i just got randomly selected

[full drift]

I don't remember if it was this server or another server, but have yall hear about the DS PC that's coming out?

[gray cave]

Good to know, It honestly looks cool!

[merry palm]

it is yeah

there are other things i can add to it like fave game, but i'd have to pick just one lol

i cant choose only one!

[gray cave]

There's so many I wouldn't be able choose just one like why must you make me suffer!

[queen lotus]

I guess it doesn’t show on mobile.

[merry palm]

added a section of games i want to play 😂

i hope more people get this bc its kinda fun

[gray cave]

I want!!!!!

[queen lotus]

I switched to pc, I see it now. Very cool add.

[thin nimbus]

Most people won't pay 800 would they?

[merry palm]

if they were buying a new one, yeah they probably would if they want an xbox console

[rigid sentinel]

I think mine was like $500 at a new defunct gamestop

Please stop dming me ads to your discord, tx
Im not accepting your request as i dont want that in my message list, nor do i feel like blocking you as you seem chill otherwise

[tired hare]

#ads Water

[rigid sentinel]

Its been happening for 3+ months, and they are active here. Ignoring, they've not gotten the hint. :|

[merry palm]

weird

you can mute dms, as a side note

so even if they dm again you wont see it

it doesnt block the person

[rigid sentinel]

Yeah, here's to hoping they take the hint. If not, blocking them.

Only reason have not already is they are active here and when we interact in public chats, theyre mostly chill.

[bleak robin]

I just ignore them. The only reason I leave them “open” is because it’s amusing to me what types of messages I get

[latent swallow]

looool thats something i would do.

[rigid sentinel]

Ive got put on a list of WordPress developers to spam scams too.

Also, i am not a wordpress developer so no idea how I got put on it

[waxen whale]

Unicorn are my favorite

I love panda also

[tired hare]

Good for you

[waxen whale]

[tired hare]

You're too kind

[tender socket]

I bought mine for £280 last week

[wicked stag]

Me back in 5th grade having a fun as hell summer online with the homies before the xbox one released:

[serene hazel]

Xbox series and xbox one are both hooked up right beside each other

[halcyon plank]

Can someone inform me if I buy the digital version of a game that i had previously been playing on disc if my progress will save when i log in

[tired hare]

Your progress is saved on the console. The disk is more of a e-key it just grants you access to the game

[round heath]

Bro I got reported and suspended 🙁

[halcyon plank]

Wdym on the console, im trying to buy it on a different console without a disc drive, can it save to that?

[tired hare]

If it's the same account yes it should, "cloud save" though, if the game you're playing doesn't use cloud save then it won't transfer.

[halcyon plank]

Steep by Ubisoft

[tired hare]

Yes it has cloud save

[halcyon plank]

thanks bro, $30 well spent for the winter season

?ban KingkgotThis

[lunar panther]

We don't do console wars here, homie

[halcyon plank]

Lmao

[hardy basalt]

Every game on xbox one/series has cloud saves, even on backwards compatibility

The only games which dont have cloud saves are OG Xbox games on Xbox 360

But Xbox 360 games themselves all have cloud saves (on 360 itself or on newer Xboxes BC), as well as OG Xbox games on One and Series

It's not like steam, where you need to check the store. It is universal on Xbox

[jade stirrup]

Would anyone wanna join my club it’s called weeb I just made it

[upper meteor]

What about halo wars

1 and 2

[surreal hamlet]

I never played halo wars

[hardy basalt]

I played 1 and 2 + Wars 2 Dlcs only for the story

I dont like rts's

[analog escarp]

Hi, how's it going? Sorry for the inconvenience. Could someone help me buy coins in Brawhalla? I don't have an Xbox and I need someone who does so they can log into my account and redeem the reward.

[lusty crow]

Sharing your account details with anyone is against TOS and extremely dangerous. That's how you lose your account.

[analog escarp]

I only have Brawhalla in the account.

[lusty crow]

Doesn't change the facts. It's against Terms of Service.

[analog escarp]

Can I dm you?

[lusty crow]

Nope.

[analog escarp]

Ok np

[civic violet]

Hii

[analog escarp]

It's not a scam, Mammoth Coins are cheaper in the Microsoft Store in Argentina.

But I need an Xbox to be able to redeem them.

[lusty crow]

It's still not allowed.

[gray cave]

Why not just download the xbox app and redeem it there?

[analog escarp]

Can that be done?

[gray cave]

Yeah, it'll redirect you to your web browser as to where it can be done there if it is just redeeming a code.

[analog escarp]

Can we talk in a general discussion voice 1?

[gray cave]

No.

I provided a solution if I'm wrong my apologies.

[analog escarp]

I want to share my screen

[lusty crow]

Some things require a console to use them. I can't remember for sure, but there was a perk from XBox Game Pass Ultimate awhile ago that required you to login to the game using a console before you could use the items on your PC.

[gray cave]

I searched it up, it does say here that it can be redeemed via mobile, PC or the console itself especially the gamepass ultimate benefits in regards to brawlhalla.

But some perks do have platform restrictions like you said

[lusty crow]

Does it say that in the google thing that gives you an answer via AI? Because 99% of the time, that's not even correct. lol

[gray cave]

No comment, lol.

[analog escarp]

How can I share a screenshot to explain me?

[lusty crow]

Nobody needs to see, because if you can't do it without an XBox, you can't share your account to do it, so you either need an XBox or you do without.

[analog escarp]

In the page say me "Play whit Xbox one or Xbox series x/s"

[vocal gorge]

😱

[sturdy beacon]

bro for sure it's fake like nothing is free in the world

[lusty crow]

It's not fake. They always give one free entry to their big sweepstakes.

[thin nimbus]

I was talking about if anyone actually won any money from the daily Instant Win it does give you a extra entry every day

[upper meteor]

Wow even if I got $500 USD that's still some good money 😁

I could pay some uni stuff with that..

[thin nimbus]

You won some?

[upper meteor]

No

But if I even won that amount, I'd still be happy NGL

[lusty crow]

It is possible to win, but I personally never have.

[crimson hollow]

no one is showing up there anyway 😩

[lusty crow]

That doesn't mean you can use this channel. They have lfg channels for a reason. lol

[crimson hollow]

understand , do uu like to play with me ?

[lusty crow]

No. I don't play with people. And that's still not using the right channel. lol

[crimson hollow]

🤣

ok ok then text me in that channel , i asked there as well ]

[lusty crow]

I don't play with people, like I said.

[crimson hollow]

who do u play with then?

[hollow hawk]

[true prism]

Do the fat xbox 360s not update to the same style (dashboard, menus) as the slim and E models?

[lusty crow]

Myself? I don't play multiplayer games unless multiplayer is required to earn achievements. And when I play It Takes Two, I just play by myself with two controllers, same as A Way Out.

[hollow hawk]

All models of 360s are able to recieve the last update Microsoft provided, and you'll likely want that dashboard update if you intend to continue playing it.

[crimson hollow]

just start using cloud gaming guys , u no need update or anythink , if u have a pass

[true prism]

Oh no I have a slim, and it's fully updated, I was just wondering why I see so many fat models with the old UI

[true prism]

..Eh? I was asking about the damn UI

[crimson hollow]

r u interested in playing it takes 2

[hollow hawk]

There's no way to downgrade it, and some people prefer the older dashboard styles, so they just never update the box. perks of the console not being always-online. My personal 360 doesn't really ever connect to the internet outside of when I hook it up to the hotspot to download games.

[true prism]

I don't have it takes 2 and I don't think it works on the 360

[lusty crow]

Would you seriously stop asking every single person who talks? lol

[true prism]

Ooooh I see..

I was mostly wondering because the groove music app is still called Zune in the old versions

aaand I own a zune

[hollow hawk]

Archival purposes too, if everyone updated their 360s, no one would get to see the Blades UI besides the people who had the box at launch

[crimson hollow]

🤣 🤣 🤣

[true prism]

I wonder if I should buy a fat 360, I realistically have no reason for it but it could be funi

[crimson hollow]

by xbox cloud , dont buy the xbox its cost u less if u buy cloud pass

[true prism]

Could you shush and give your ipad back to mommy

[hollow hawk]

early fat model 360s are sorta a minefield in terms of their GPUs. Lotta early ones were suspectible to bumpgate and some people will sell an RRoD'd box passed off as working

[lusty crow]

The cloud doesn't even work on the 360. So your advice doesn't help them at all.

[crimson hollow]

i have a 120" tv bro ,

[true prism]

d'awwhh

[true prism]

As I was saying, I've heard of that before, my first 360 slim actually redringed and instead of calling the number on the screen, my mom just sold it

[ripe grotto]

Xbox decided to increase the console price AGAIN?

[crimson hollow]

all u need is xbplay app on your TV , and unlimited pass ,

[hollow hawk]

damn, thats rough
my dad's phat 360 is still kickin after all these years. I have a trinity/corona slim sitting to my left here next to my Series S.

[lusty crow]

It only works on certain TVs. Not everyone has a TV that allows for Game Pass on the TV.

[true prism]

The worst part is that, despite buying me a "new" 360 slim and an xbox one, she also sold the controllers, I had THREE OF EM

[lusty crow]

And the fact that you said you have a 120 inch TV tells me everything I need to know, since 120" don't even exist.

[crimson hollow]

no its just an app thats work on all device android 7.0 and above ,

[true prism]

I wanted to get all 4 controllers and now all I have is one half-working grey one I got with the second 360 slim

[crimson hollow]

even in your mobile - iphone - tab

[true prism]

DOES THE XBOX 360 RUN ANDROID? HUH?

Anyway

[hollow hawk]

this has to be ragebait

[crimson hollow]

it run on the app , not on the xbox , now you no need a physicel xbox ( all u need is a xbplay app )#

[true prism]

naw he's just a child, I'm surprised he made it all the way into this server instead of staying in the minecraft one

[true prism]

I'd rather use google stadia, thanks

[hollow hawk]

damn that reminds me i gotta get my hands on a stadia controller. heard that they're actually pretty solid

(i have enough controllers as it is)

[true prism]

They're fine, nothing too special but they're not bad

[crimson hollow]

https://youtu.be/HhhafCwsXfI?si=vUBZ4f-kGddc9CUJ

[true prism]

I got an ouya controller and it also works fine, but the triggers are squeaky

[crimson hollow]

checjk the video and u will know

we can do it on tv as well , the video i shared is for mobile

[hollow hawk]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1265655259053686807/1279174039528669215/captioned.gif

[true prism]

Speaking of xbox on mobile, I wonder if there's a way to get the old xbox live app back online

[true prism]

Yeah I got a kickstarter backer ouya, the one with all the network issues baked into the hardware

[hollow hawk]

I have one of the later ones, mostly because I just thought it was a goofy little box. I have it half-working with CWM and was attempting to run PostmarketOS on it but never got far into it.

[true prism]

Neat, I got mine on the original OS, but rooted and modded to run on the (un)official community server and to have all games for free

[crimson hollow]

get to trend , and start using xbox cloud , be in update

[hollow hawk]

my goal was to turn mine into a pi-hole lmao, maybe run supertuxkart on it so it'd get to run one last game before its sentence to selfhosting purgatory

[lusty crow]

Would you seriously shush about Cloud? Nobody asked and nobody cares. Sure, it's okay, but stop telling everyone to use it. Some people don't like streaming their games.

[true prism]

I wanted to try porting old android games to it, but they.. don't particularly support the non-standard ouya controller input so all the inputs are messed up and I have no idea how to fix it

(You have to steer with the dpad)

[hollow hawk]

id rather play the game on my box at 15-30FPS than run it on a server at 60 with ping deciding how good i am in a singleplayer experience tbh

[true prism]

Btw with this I mean the app from 2012

I randomly found an apk of it, it prompts me to login but when I do I get an error

[crimson hollow]

ok

[hollow hawk]

I think it supports connecting to a DualShock 3 if the game in question has a controller layout for that. Ouya controllers were so infamously bad in terms of build quality and latency that gamedevs on Ouya would actually tell players to use a DS3 instead lmao

[true prism]

Naw the controller is alright in latency and build quality (a bit of squeak on the triggers), it's just the input layout is so screwed up I cannot figure out how to get it to work right, especially on a game that was originally touchscreen only

[civic violet]

Man

[true prism]

Hell, not even an input displayer can show it correctly, everything is wrong

[hollow hawk]

My Ouya was new-old-stock lmao
One bumper sounds and feels different from the other, the stick gates are inconsistent between the two because of the aluminum (?) covers, I feel zero feedback from the d-pad and yea the triggers are suuuper squeaky.

[true prism]

Same here, new old stock, I only knew it was a kickstarter one because I got the BOTTOM SIDE of the original box (which is black for kickstarters and orange for retail)

[hollow hawk]

I think the box fro mine was all-black. I don't believe it came with the sleeve

[true prism]

So you also got a kickstarter one, neat

[hollow hawk]

now that I think about it mine might not have been true new old stock, probably got used like once by someone and put back in the box lmao

[true prism]

Mine was 100% used, top half of the box is just gone, the manual had some brown specks on it and the console itself was just kinda stuffed in there, also didn't have the controller it came with

[true prism]

Anyway, I found an old apk of this app, and a youtube video, but idunno if I can get the app to work again

Can you share Xbox game pass ultimate between two people who have two different Xbox, like if two people that live together wanna play together on one game pass subscription payment is it possible

[fiery python]

Yes.

[rigid sentinel]

set it as your xbox home and they can share the games and online play, but other "perks" arent included

[fiery python]

Cloud gaming isn't shared though.

[alpine cave]

Well they did say 2 xbox's

[rigid sentinel]

idk abt two xboxes

use one, ez

[alpine cave]

Yes it works lol, that was their whole question 😭

[vast finch]

So two Xbox’s can share the same game pass subscription?

Sorry to ask this but can I connect my AirPods to my Xbox controller ? lol

[lusty crow]

Airpods are bluetooth, aren't they? XBox doesn't have bluetooth.

[flint willow]

Most likely not

[tired hare]

Hmm, thanks .

[wary fossil]

I dont think Xbox allows third party accessories I assume

Could be wrong

[fiery python]

They do, they just need to be supported ones. Bluetooth audio is not support on Xbox or PlayStation.

[wary fossil]

Thanks for correcting

[green laurel]

PlayStation has Bluetooth though?

[fiery python]

Not for audio.

[green laurel]

Huh

Interesting

[fiery python]

Only console that supports bluetooth audio is Switch/Switch 2.

[ripe grotto]

Sup everyone

[green laurel]

Yeah i connect my headset to switch 2 lol

[ripe grotto]

But only offline I’m pretty sure

If you’re doing online stuff then it disconnects your Bluetooth headphones

Some borderlands or fc26 or deep rock galactic

Hiii

[wet rover]

hello everyone

[half coral]

Hi

[pearl gazelle]

Hey all good morning I just wanted to say I am looking forward to starfield hopefully coming to ps5 I don’t have an Xbox but I love the Xbox first party games I’ve played on ps5 I think it’s so awesome that Xbox is publishing on other platforms so thank you team Xbox.

I also am eager for a halo port to ps5 if that ever comes I loved halo 3 on my Xbox 360 when I was a youngling so fingers crossed if nothing else the new halo game that’s being worked on will be cross platform

[half coral]

Hey that’s good to hear

[cerulean basin]

I imagine those games will arrive to other platforms sooner or later 🙂
And Starfield still has some new content on the way which should make it even more interesting!

[green laurel]

Watch out for releases next year 👀

And we love helldivers on xbox

💀 20+ Brutal Scorestreaks

X · Sep 22, 2025, 2:59 PM

The 21st consistent title release since call of duty 2… crazy

[cerulean basin]

It's also gonna be a relatively mellow Christmas period in terms of game releases

Of course something else might show up as a surprise announcement between then and now

And I'm sure every live service game will do their best to keep players coming back

Notable releases during November and December include:

• Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment
• Anno 117: Pax Romana
• COD: Black Ops 7
• Escape from Tarkov leaves early access, if you wanna count that
• Kirby Air Riders
• Metroid Prime 4
• Octopath Traveler 0

And many of those are not what I would consider major heavy hitters outside of more niche groups

[blissful yacht]

chat anyone want me fr😼🙏🙏

[cerulean basin]

If your name was related at all to Bink Video, I would definitely not want you at all 😛

[glad axle]

Ill decide wether to get it or not after the beta is over

[wanton jolt]

game of the year is already out

[glad axle]

Ive not seen it drop yet

[cerulean basin]

It's such a contested year that it could really be anything at this point

[glad axle]

I prob wont bc i wanna get fallout 4 and skyrim

[fallow moat]

Tarkov will be out of early access? Thing was in EA for like many years

[glad axle]

I just hope it finally hits steam

[cerulean basin]

Expedition 33, Silksong, DK Bananza, Death Stranding 2, Split Fiction, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, Blue Prince...
All titles that have a strong chance of being nominated for game of the year at least

[glad axle]

I wonder how pokemon legends z-a will be

I doubt it will run well on switch 1 tho

[wanton jolt]

Expedition 33

I have yet to play death stranding though

or DK Bananza

[glad axle]

Silksong was also super great

[wanton jolt]

As much as I love Kingdom Come deliverance 2, that's not going to win

I don't think it garnered that much a following

[cerulean basin]

The issue with Pokemon games is that they don't ever take any real evolutionary steps, it always feels more like small iterations on the formula.
Legends Arceus and Z-A do take things a lot further, but it's still not a package that stands out for those who haven't looked into the Pokemon series yet

[fallow moat]

I would hope for borderlands 4 and doom the dark ages getting nominated for something this year

[wanton jolt]

Split Fiction will win best co-op if there is such a category

[glad axle]

People maybe will for the gameplay but if they just go based off of how randy has been i doubt people will tho i hope it does

[cerulean basin]

Well it's not a popularity vote though

[wanton jolt]

Silksong is getting hate as much as I love that game

[glad axle]

I have not seen hate?

[wanton jolt]

people are down voting

[glad axle]

Ive seen almost everyone say its a masterpiece

[wanton jolt]

because of it's difficulty

[cerulean basin]

People will react as a polar opposite to anything that has gathered critical success

[glad axle]

I mean thats their own fault
They know its a soulslike and that hollow knight was deemed super hard already

[wanton jolt]

well it sort of is, I mean it has to be well liked by the masses

which KCD 2 is not sadly, I love it, no one in this server played that game

goes to show how not popular it is

[glad axle]

How do you know?

[wanton jolt]

because when it was out, no one bought it cuz I was talking about it here back in Feb

[cerulean basin]

But the masses don't decide on that. It's a jury vote.

There's a very small percentage of public voting that counts, but it's heavily decided by jury

If we're talking about The Game Awards, that is

[wanton jolt]

yeah but Juries they play popular games, you think they play all games

they probably have other jobs

[cerulean basin]

And you think the juries won't have played KC Deliverance 2? 😛

[wanton jolt]

probably not

[cerulean basin]

You're assuming very wrong

[wanton jolt]

They play DK bananza before KCD

or Death Stranding 2 before KCD

[cerulean basin]

Seriously, you're making a very strange and incorrect assumption

[wanton jolt]

maybe you're right but I don't think they have the time to play the games you listed

I think Expedition 33 will win

The all rounder

[glad axle]

I love the undertale musical so much

[wanton jolt]

it's like the oscars, not all jury watch all films

and there's a news article about it

and that's films, that's 1 - 2 hours

we talking about games that goes up to 50 hours

[cerulean basin]

That's why there's nomination processes in the first place

The voting jury doesn't just include a bunch of people who only play a few popular games and that's it.
It includes media outlets that specialize in smaller indie titles as well.

Once there's been a series of games nominated, the jury HAS to play all those games, by the way

It's not like they just vote on the game they've played and ignore the other nominees

[lapis ferry]

I have 10 games on Xbox where I got EVERY LAST achievement.

• Need for Speed Heat
• DIRT 5
• Joy Ride Turbo
• Toybox Turbos
• PAC-MAN CE DX+
• Daytona USA
• Costume Quest
• Garfield Kart Furious Racing
• Garfield Lasagna Party
• Coffin Dodgers

[fiery python]

I was the first person on Xbox to get all achievements in Garfield Kart 😄

[green laurel]

Do you get lasagna for finishing it

[fiery python]

Sadly not.

Just angry messages from people on TA who complained that I made the game sound too easy and they were stuck with it incomplete on their profile 😂

[lapis ferry]

Harms Way is another game that is CLOSE to getting all the achievements, but I have to join an active multiplayer game, and no one seems to play it anymore.

[cerulean basin]

I swear people will complain about anything 😛

[lapis ferry]

At least Harms Way free, but I want to join a multiplayer match.

[cerulean basin]

Like achievements ending in uneven numbers 👀

[fiery python]

At least that one I don't care about.

Unless I want to get a screenshot of a milestone.

[glad axle]

I loved toybox turbos

[odd mulch]

Help i still dont know If i get Hollow Knight of Rdr2

[odd mulch]

😭 i hate this

[glad axle]

Do you rage easily?

[odd mulch]

sometimes

[glad axle]

Rdr2 has a great story but hollow knight is super fun but very much a rage game

[fiery python]

They are very different types of game.

[glad axle]

Rdr2 is like gta while hollow knight is metroidvania

[odd mulch]

I gonna play on console too. Idk If change smth

[odd mulch]

Yeah a lot

[glad axle]

The category was called metroidvania right?

[glad axle]

What i suggest is watching some gameplay of both

[odd mulch]

Yes

[glad axle]

And deciding after you watched something about them

[odd mulch]

Both but not the Full gameplay, Just the start

I dont want to buy games that i know the history

[glad axle]

Also which hollow knight?

[odd mulch]

Old

[glad axle]

Also what console are you on? With what budget

[odd mulch]

Xbox One S

[odd mulch]

Im put RDR2 Because it's discounted...

And i like open Works

World*

[glad axle]

Then id go with rdr 2

[odd mulch]

I usually finesh the all games 100%, to Worth It

[glad axle]

Rdr 2 and hollow knight both takes hunderds of hours btw

[odd mulch]

Yeah 😭

If Elden Ring got discount in the same time.. oh god.

[glad axle]

Elden ring is like 40 bucks on sale

[odd mulch]

IM Brazilian, For us it's costing 300 reais 😭

(Is a Lot, for me)

[sterile sequoia]

Gaming isn’t cheap

[glad axle]

I heard the series s and x is going up in price again

[sterile sequoia]

Yup they are

[odd mulch]

Oh wow

I think.. Mine IS from 2017 😭

is a baby

[glad axle]

400 dollars for a console with 356 gigs of usable space is outrageos

[sterile sequoia]

Welp life is getting more expensive so not a surprise the consoles got a price increase again

[glad axle]

They will prob go up in price on facebook and marktplaats aswell

[glad axle]

Im glad i got my series s last year for 239

[odd mulch]

😤 IM gonna get RDR2

[hollow raven]

[glad axle]

Go ahead

Hi all

[hearty plinth]

I just found my old 120gb 360 that have a broken disc drive in my basement

rhinne wins

[summer magnet]

I want that one 😂

[crisp girder]

🇸🇦 Happy Saudi National Day 🇸🇦

[hearty plinth]

Why does that remind me of slime from dragon quest

[wary fossil]

Red Devils controller

[fiery python]

Because that's exactly what it is.

[bleak robin]

That's because it is
It was a collab and yes, it's an official nintendo controller

[fluid creek]

does it work on switch 2

asking for lucy

[bleak robin]

It should, I would imagine

[fiery python]

There's a PS4 version too.

[bleak robin]

Afaik it's just a normal pro controller in a new shell

[granite verge]

I have this one!! (for my little one 👀)

[summer magnet]

https://tenor.com/view/alright-jennifer-lawrence-thumbs-up-okay-sure-gif-4486668

[fluid creek]

retrofit it for your xbox please

i won't tell

[hearty plinth]

Its reminding me to replay dq11 definitive edition

[granite verge]

I also bought one for my nephew, he'll be 16 in a few weeks 😂

[summer magnet]

lol

[fiery python]

https://youtu.be/OPUFFAVKZu4

[wary fossil]

That controller is actually a gaming controller?

Thought it was all jokes

[fiery python]

No, but he modified it to make it one.

[wary fossil]

Ah I see

I’d like to see how long that controller would last especially in elden ring lmao

[queen lotus]

I love that he kept the control sounds.

[bold monolith]

it’s their independence day??? didn’t know that

[crisp girder]

yeah

[bold monolith]

well happy independence day ig

[crisp girder]

🥳🥳

[hearty plinth]

Happy national day. I dont even keep track of other countries' national days. But hope u enjoy it

[graceful lichen]

no msgs for 5 mins, this server fell off 🥀

[fiery python]

That's the best you could come up with in five minutes?

[graceful lichen]

its a joke-

[fiery python]

Oh sorry, that wasn't clear without the funny part.

[graceful lichen]

btw which xbox and how many u got? just curious

[fiery python]

Series X, Series S and two 360s.

[graceful lichen]

nice

[cerulean basin]

I try to get rid of my older gen consoles these days, since I can play most of the older games on the new ones

[fiery python]

I still have some non-back compat games so the 360s are handy for that.

[half slate]

hey if i basically had a microsoft account and it got hacked, my email got changed, password and everything and so did xbox i recovered the microsoft account and everything but i had to make a completely new xbox account and lost the old one where i had sea of thieves, minecraft and all that installed so i bought minecraft again but now i remembered i had sea of thieves there and alot of hours. but i lost the xbox account that i once had im guessing the hacker changed the password and the email basically unliking it from my microsoft or whatever and now i wanna recover it. i have proof of being the owner and i looked the profile up by the name and it was last active 4 days ago which means its still under control of someone else but its mine. i lost it about 2 years ago and now wanna recover it. possible or?

[cerulean basin]

Though I still haven't decided what to do with my Switch 1

[fiery python]

Chances of getting an account back after all details have been changed are already low. Two years later, not a chance mate.

[half slate]

yea they're already changed for sure but if i have proof it used to be mine and stuff? is there not someone i can contact from xbox

[cerulean basin]

But if that's the case, why didn't you attempt to recover it 2 years ago?

[fiery python]

If you had proof, you should have dealt with it two years ago.

[half slate]

ok maybe not 2 years it was december of 2024

[fluid creek]

and it's september of 2025

why did you wait so long?

[cerulean basin]

Well, either way all you can do is contact support about it

[fiery python]

It seems you've already got the answer in your head that you wanted to hear, so just contact Support and see what happens instead of disagreeing with the answers you're getting.

[half slate]

because i wasn't playing sea of thieves at the time had other stuff to deal with. they had everything breached from bank data to my xbox acount everything that was linked to my email was taken away and i had to recover anything. didn't notice xbox was gone because i was barely playing at the time being

[cerulean basin]

Jeez, if they breached bank data that's a sign you SHOULD have acted on it right away

[half slate]

and i did man i literally recovered everything and got it all back, changed passwords, set everything up properly but not xbox because i never used it im not talking about xbox itself as the console i dont have one im just talking about the xbox app thats required to play sea of thieves on pc and its something i never used in general and didn't notice it was taken away only first noticed some months later

[fluid creek]

^

[cerulean basin]

I wonder what surprises we'll get from Tokyo Game Show.
I'll keep forever hoping for a Chrono Trigger revival

[astral mortar]

why cant i buy dying light the beast

[cerulean basin]

With so little info it's hard to know...

[tacit robin]

I predict that we will see monster hunter

that was sarcasm since capcom show it at every show

[hearty plinth]

Hoping for a new horizon game set in japan

[tacit robin]

seriously though i hope we get the price for the handheld and preorder info game wise I expect Microsoft will talk about a Japanese game coming to gamepass

[fiery python]

More bonkers stuff from Devolver. 😂

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-UttSqIqxw

[hearty plinth]

High chances for that especially so close to release date. At least 600/700 for base rog is my guess

[idle spear]

Keeping my OLED switch 1 as I have a 1TB SD card in that still works for the older games

[cerulean basin]

Tokyo Game Show is the prime place to heavily, HEAVILY promote the Xbox Ally, really. Handhelds and the Japanese gaming market go hand in hand.

[tacit robin]

yeah

[hearty plinth]

How much do u think base rog would cost?

[cerulean basin]

In this current market, I no longer assume any price

[hearty plinth]

I would say at least the price of a series x

[tacit robin]

i expect Square Enix will talk alot about Xbox has well has they done for the last few years. mainly with ff and maybe just maybe they show Kingdom of hearts 4

[cerulean basin]

Also, of course Valve reduces the price of the Steam Deck LCD just now 😛

[queen lotus]

the new or old price of series x?

[hearty plinth]

Either

[summer magnet]

I’m sorry but what’s this about?? £1.38 for 4 Freddos?? The world has gone mad I tell ya!

[cerulean basin]

If they show Kingdom Hearts 4 first at an Xbox event I'm replaying the entire series again

[young fog]

I could replay it 20 times and still not understand the ''story''

[cerulean basin]

Don't worry, I don't think anybody reaaaaally does 😛

[hearty plinth]

Wasnt the last kh4 was like 2 or 3 years back with that cinematic trailer

[young fog]

I like the worlds though 😄

[tacit robin]

3 was world premiere at the xbox showcase E3

[cerulean basin]

They did show some random screenshots not too long ago.
Which was weird, since they didn't look particularly presentable

[static gull]

I have a suesti

[hasty root]

How y’all doing today?

[hearty plinth]

I think kh4 is said to be ue5

[cerulean basin]

Hummm... was it? I remember seeing KH3 AGES ago, but not on an Xbox show

[static gull]

I have a question, are you here

[cerulean basin]

That would be the natural thing, yeah

[hearty plinth]

U could just ask

[tacit robin]

yeah it was massive thing at the time because Kingdom hearts was mainly a PlayStation game

[static gull]

You can play #naruto on xbox cloud

[hearty plinth]

Depends on if any naruto games is play owned games list. Last i checked game pass dont have naruto games

[static gull]

There are no games to animate ?

[cerulean basin]

It was announced during Sony's PS4 E3 2013 event.
Later on it was announced as a cross-platform event.
https://www.polygon.com/2013/6/10/4416822/kingdom-hearts-3-ps4/

[hearty plinth]

I have no idea about naruto games. I dont play those games or use cloud

[tacit robin]

ah maybe i thinking of persona

[cerulean basin]

In fact, it was announced for PS4 and, one day later, for Xbox One:
https://www.ign.com/articles/2013/06/11/e3-2013-kingdom-hearts-iii-heading-to-xbox-one

[static gull]

Kind of other I ux that naruto style fighting

[tacit robin]

i remember it been a big thing has it was unheard of seeing a Kingdom of hearts game on xbox at the time nevermind at a xbox main showcase

[hearty plinth]

I dont play those fighting naruto style games at all. I prefer jrpgs

[static gull]

@hearty plinth What are your games you play?

[hearty plinth]

Open world jrpgs mostly

[static gull]

@hearty plinth Give the names

[cerulean basin]

Glad they turned KH into a multi-platform series.
Their previous way of doing games that were key to the central story, each on a different competing platform was just... annoying

[wary fossil]

Is the pings necessary?

[static gull]

Who plays fc 25???

[wary fossil]

Fr

[hearty plinth]

Please stop pinging me

[wary fossil]

We all moving to fc 26

[static gull]

I don't know how to use discord

[wary fossil]

One year old account btw

[static gull]

Ah y'a pas fc 25 On the cloud

[cerulean basin]

Some people might still be playing the previous game, nothing wrong with that. Especially when FC26 is not even out, is it? Next week

[static gull]

I don't use the app too much

[hearty plinth]

I play ff games, dq games not the builder games, and tales games

[wary fossil]

Yeah but most people play ultimate team on fc

FIFA online active servers can’t go more than 1.5 years

[cerulean basin]

And plenty of people play FC25

[static gull]

You know there will be when You know there will be when fc 26 On the cloud

[rigid sentinel]

Everyone starts somewhere

[cerulean basin]

Probably within a year

[wary fossil]

Yeah because it’s still the latest fully released fc game

[hearty plinth]

Around June next year

[wary fossil]

Fc 25 will be a ghost town in the winter

[tacit robin]

loads of people play Fifa 25 its in the top most played games every week. (in the UK it sometimes even tops GTA5)

[static gull]

In 1 year? Wesh it's too long

[queen lotus]

I'm pretty sure all the naurto games are fighting. You can check the xbox store for cloud game, if the game is playable on the cloud it'll say Cloud Gaming. Or you can check on Xbox Cloud Gaming, you don't need the game or membership to look at the library.

[hearty plinth]

Thats is how long any ea game takes to go on cloud/game pass

[cerulean basin]

FC24 still has over 3700 players on Steam alone right now... FIFA 23 still has over 1300 players on Steam right now.

[static gull]

Mais NBA2k26 est sur le cloud

[wary fossil]

Well most of them are career mode characters

Most people care about ultimate

[static gull]

But NBA2k26 is on the cloud

[wary fossil]

If ultimate dies, they either move to the next game or leave

[cerulean basin]

Which means they are still playing those games, despite not being the latest one, which is my point

[wary fossil]

Well they’re expensive

72 dollars for the standard and 100 for the ultimate version

And you gotta buy online subscriptions

Allat just to rage

[cerulean basin]

I don't know why you're trying to put excuses when the whole point was that yes, there's still people playing FC25 when you said "we all moving to fc 26"

[wary fossil]

It was a simple joke lmao

[hearty plinth]

U could always play on pc

[wary fossil]

Yeah but a significant part of the community if not the majority are console players

[hearty plinth]

Not really.

[cerulean basin]

As long as there's plenty of players on PC, it doesn't matter much which platform has the majority

[wary fossil]

ok

[hearty plinth]

I dont really care who has the majority of players on what platform

As long i could play games on my desired platform im good

[wary fossil]

You’re a pc player right?

[cerulean basin]

Also nowadays they are cross-play between PC and current-gen consoles

Probably one of the best changes to gaming that has happened in recent years: standardizing cross-play

[hearty plinth]

Xbox and pc. But majority on my pc

[hearty plinth]

Or play anywhere program

[wary fossil]

I would agree as well

[cerulean basin]

Xbox Play Anywhere is great... but unfortunately it's far from a standard thing 🙁

[hearty plinth]

True

[cerulean basin]

I seriously don't understand how Square-Enix has tons of Xbox Play Anywhere titles lately, but one of the games that would make most sense, FF Tactics, is not

[hearty plinth]

Didnt they announce that they remaking tactics a while back

[cerulean basin]

Nah, it was a relatively recent announcement this year

[tacit robin]

i actually looked the other day there is a new filter option on Console My games and apps
Out of over 600 games 50 are Xox play anywhere, however if you include gamepass it jumps to over 200

[cerulean basin]

I'm more really surprised that FF16 and FF7R are Xbox Play Anywhere, honestly

[hearty plinth]

Thats im actually suprised

[cerulean basin]

On the upside, buying FF7R or FF16 on Xbox means we can enjoy it now on console, and if we ever switch to a more powerful PC, enjoy it with higher settings without having to buy again or starting a new save

And with Microsoft's increasing attention to PC gaming, it's great to have that feature for future upgrades

[meager yacht]

the new Yooka-Laylee game looks great

[south beacon]

the only problem was the fact that it took 6 years for KH3 to even release and officially drop on Xbox One. In that timespan, SE released KH 2.8, which is DDD HD on PS4 EXCLUSIVELY. Then about half a year later Square confirmed that the remasters on PS4 would drop on Xbox and Game Pass in 2020 (around Feburary iirc), Also, ReMind was a PS4 timed exclusive.

[cerulean basin]

I want to check out the remaster, never got to play the original

[south beacon]

I did

It was pretty meh.

[hearty plinth]

The same for pc.

[south beacon]

collectathons are generally not my favorite kind of platformer.

[cerulean basin]

Yeah, but as you said, they released them all on Xbox Game Pass, which great to see for people to build up towards KH3 if they had missed on the series till then

[south beacon]

I know Square had exclusive contracts with EGS for PC releases, and most of the time they were pretty botched

[half coral]

What’s everyone doing

[south beacon]

then after that, we had the rythmn game drop in 2020

[cerulean basin]

I remember when KH finally released on Steam, most headlines were "Kingdom Hearts is finally coming to PC!" ignoring that it had already come out on Epic

[hearty plinth]

I skipped that

[cerulean basin]

It was a great game 😄

[south beacon]

and that is the most up to date release in the series

[cerulean basin]

But I love rhythm games, and I love KH music

[south beacon]

In a way, it is meant to act as a recap of the series so far

[hearty plinth]

I just dont do well in rhythm games

[south beacon]

but it's the only KH game on Switch to be a proper port.

They did the remaining KH games on Switch via cloud versions when they did the Sora Smash Bros Direct. That part bothered me, especially since 1.5 and 2.5 could've been ported naturally comapred to 2.8 and even 3

[cerulean basin]

Which unfortunately is due to the KH3 levels being simply background videos instead of properly rendered stages

What are the odds they'll announce the entire Kingdom Hearts collection for Switch 2 this week? 😛

[south beacon]

slim to none

[hearty plinth]

Kh never got ported to switch?

[south beacon]

There's a very specific team at Square Enix that handles porting for their games

[cerulean basin]

I'd go for "pretty high"

[south beacon]

They are swamped on three projects rn

[tacit robin]

i duuno i reckon alot of people would buy it that does seem like a money winner

[hearty plinth]

Especially with ff7 part 3

[south beacon]

One of the games, I know is the FF7 port to Switch 2

[cerulean basin]

A game that still doesn't even have a release date

[south beacon]

I can't completely break down all the development teams and projects at square enix

[tacit robin]

KH is a game that suits the switch audience

[hearty plinth]

Yeah. Im still waiting f9r it though

[south beacon]

But basically, their entire porting and remasters team are stretched in multiple directions that it's hard to actually pin the ones responsible for porting their games. But I know a core part of the team is working on FF7 ports, and another are handling the Dragon Quest IP

[south beacon]

I heard FF7.3 is further ahead in development than KH4. But both are at a pace where their release dates could come pretty close to each other.

Similar to KH3 and FF7 remake

[cerulean basin]

Porting is sometimes done through external studios though, like Virtuos

[south beacon]

Nomura was literally directing both games at the same time

[south beacon]

sometimes. I don't how often Virtuos works with Square

[hearty plinth]

I would say sometime between 2026 and 2027 for both games

[south beacon]

I think they worked on the Switch port of Nier

[cerulean basin]

As far as I know, only FF XV was ported internally

[south beacon]

actually, they collab with Platinum

[south beacon]

most of Square's ports are internal. They are a pretty big company

Similar to Nintendo

I think Nintendo only relies on external teams for ports for specific IP (Zelda is one example) and games

[hearty plinth]

I wouldnt be surprised if ff7 part 3 is called reunion following Part1 and rebirth naming

[cerulean basin]

FF X/X-2 was ported to PC by Virtuos.
FF 7R was ported by an external studio, though it is not publicly announced which one.

[south beacon]

I predicted that many years ago, Rumbly

I called part 3 to be either reunion or renewal

[hearty plinth]

Whats ur guess of when part 3 and kh4 drops?

[cerulean basin]

It's Square. And Nomura.
They could end up calling it Final Fantasy 7 Rendevouz 179x4i

[south beacon]

lol.

Cal back to versus 13.

[south beacon]

2027-2029 the lastest.

That's my range at the least.

But I expect to see big news for either next year

[cerulean basin]

Sometime between GTA6 and The Elder Scrolls 6

[south beacon]

we could go on and on about predicting games releases

[hearty plinth]

Yeah

[south beacon]

Also, there was a joke made yesterday about how November scared a lot of people away from planning a game release bc of GTA 6

and people were using Borderlands 4 as a predictor for GTA 6's release, even me

There's two games near november. BO7 and Metroid Prime 4.

now that GTA will likely take up May, I wonder if any games will plan earlier or later releases next year bc of it

[cerulean basin]

Made a list earlier of the most notable games coming out between November and December

#general-chat message

[south beacon]

A bulk of this is just Nintendo and then COD.

[tacit robin]

Talking about TGS Avowed it supose to be getting a fall update

[stable ingot]

Hi guys, I'm new here

[tacit robin]

no DLC though 🙁

[cerulean basin]

Hey new, I'm Anchel

[tacit robin]

hi

[wary trellis]

Hello if I connect my steam account and I have left 4 dead can I play it on Xbox gforce browser?

I haven't bought it but I'll buy it if I can

[cerulean basin]

You can play it via Microsoft Edge if the game is supported via GeForce Now, yes

[tacit lion]

Does anyone here like autistic people?

[wary trellis]

Yoo Bett ty

[cerulean basin]

I don't think it's a reason to like or dislike someone

[odd mulch]

My Xbox dont have SPACE LFMAO 😭

[south beacon]

don't think so

I don't know what to expect out of Xbox these days for TGS

[tacit robin]

nah, the game is supose to get a fall update but i forgot it didnt have DLC

[south beacon]

don't expect any new announcements

I looked at last year's. mostly second trailers for known games. So I kinda expect a trailer for FF7 for Xbox to happen

But I expect Ninja Gaiden 4 to make a big prescence

[cerulean basin]

Last year we had tons of new game announcements, mostly from Japanese studios.
And the surprise drop of Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster on Xbox, Trials of Mana and Legends of Mana

[south beacon]

https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2024/09/26/xbox-tokyo-game-show-2024-tgs-recap/

that, and potentially whatever japanese games they have marketing rights for. maybe Persona 4 Revival

Snake Eater had a back and forth between Xbox and PlayStation events

[tacit robin]

thats what they showed last year

[south beacon]

The announcement of the remake was at Showcase 2023, then the following three trailers were at Xbox events, then the last couple times they were in two State of Plays and a Konami broadcast

[hearty plinth]

Wasnt ghostwire tokyo at tgs a few years back

[south beacon]

kinda. probably before the game released.

The Xbox port wasn't. Deathloop though was at the 2022 one

2022 was important to Xbox when it came to porting several games over, including Persona

[cerulean basin]

There's been a lot of push for Xbox in Asia lately, so there could be tons of surprises

[south beacon]

a surprise for me is a discount on one

[cerulean basin]

?

[copper oar]

Hai

[cerulean basin]

Hey there

[crisp girder]

Thanks !

[copper oar]

Hru

[cerulean basin]

I'm good, just chilling at home and playing some games, and you?

[mortal fable]

Why is Xbox raising prices again

Oh forgot my name was this lmao

[copper oar]

Bit tired but gud

[cerulean basin]

Market conditions

Same reason all other consoles have had to raise their prices

[hearty plinth]

Everything goes up but our paychecks

[mortal fable]

Literally

[mortal fable]

Oh they not using the tariff excuse anymore

[cerulean basin]

Which falls within market conditions

[copper oar]

It's called inflation

[mortal fable]

I’m so use to saying that

[mortal fable]

Type type

[cerulean basin]

The official wording is that prices for Series X and Series S consoles went up "in the United States due to changes in the macroeconomic environment."

[mortal fable]

Truly tragic

[copper oar]

Ik

Plus the size of games these days

[mortal fable]

what a whole lot of yap from them

[cerulean basin]

Why do you ask why they raised the prices if you're not going to listen?

[hearty plinth]

That is as expected with how much textures games now require

[mortal fable]

I listened

[copper oar]

Yea

[cerulean basin]

It's not like they want to raise the prices because they want to sell less

[copper oar]

It's bc they have too to make money

[cerulean basin]

Exactly, and they have to do that by not selling the consoles at a cost that they cannot easily gain back

[mortal fable]

Yeah wouldn’t want Phil Spencer missing out on his yacht

[south beacon]

only, for me, they increased it to a price where I cannot afford it

[copper oar]

Bc of how much texture and details they put into games now it would be expensive

[south beacon]

It use to be 500, and now its 650 dollars. With the tax, it's closer to 700 dollars. That's nearly the price of the PS5 Pro's original price

[copper oar]

Jesus

[south beacon]

yep

But, the way I look at it: "I definitely don't need it"

Anything Xbox has, I can get on my PS5

[mortal fable]

Idk seems like every time Xbox increases their prices Sony lower theirs

[south beacon]

and anything that I can't get on my PS5, I'm not crazy for

[mortal fable]

It’s funny to watch

[cerulean basin]

Publicly traded companies have a duty to turn profit for their investors.
Raising the price of the console is not going to get Phil Spencer more money, I assure you.

[south beacon]

no PS5 raised their recently in the US by 50 dollars

[cerulean basin]

???
Sony has also raised their prices.

[copper oar]

Well here it's ment to be £400 new then everyone bought them and selling them for hell prices

[south beacon]

This was probably the first time this year that I saw the prices for these consoles increase. I know they did in other countries

[mortal fable]

when they raised prices the first time Sony lowered console prices

[south beacon]

no it's 550 for a ps5 now

[cerulean basin]

This was literally last month: https://blog.playstation.com/2025/08/20/playstation-5-price-changes-in-the-u-s/

[mortal fable]

Ik

[south beacon]

But the EU released a version of the PS5 that has a small storage for a cheaper price

[copper oar]

$550?

[tacit robin]

The US always hard better pricing conversion wise anyhow and always has till now. the Series X launched at £429 in the UK that's $579

[mortal fable]

What I meant to say they went on sale when Xbox first raised prices

Mb

[south beacon]

still, cheaper than an Xbox

[copper oar]

Yes

My dad managed to get second hand 1 for £300

But there is some issues with it

[south beacon]

So I'm at least glad Xbox went with porting their games over to PS5, because nobody can afford two or even three consoles these days

[rigid sentinel]

No one safe from price increases in the last year

[south beacon]

yeah, and people are scared waiting on when 80 dollar video games are going to be incredibly pushed

[copper oar]

Ive heard enchanted might be coming to Xbox

[south beacon]

I'm assuming the alternative to 80 dollar OW2 and BO7 was to raise the prices of the consoels

[mortal fable]

I’m mean we can all just blame Nintendo I guess

[copper oar]

I used to play on ps4 but now I play on Xbox series x

[copper oar]

Yes old Nintendo
No to the switch

[mortal fable]

Get Reggie back they won’t do that

But get him back

[cerulean basin]

Nintendo isn't to blame for the cost of videogames production going up

[copper oar]

I growed up with the 3ds

And wii

[mortal fable]

I mean sure but they are definitely making it a lot more annoying

Along with triple A studios

[upper meteor]

Hey everyone

[cerulean basin]

We all knew the prices would eventually go up.
Inflation had made everything more expensive, but the cost of new games had remained the same for quite some time

[mortal fable]

they weren’t too happy with the success of silksong

[cerulean basin]

Why wouldn't they?

[south beacon]

no to Switch 2 4 me

[south beacon]

reminder: he was the guy to convince nintendo to bundle Wii Sports with the console.

[copper oar]

Who growed up with the 3ds

[mortal fable]

A game made by 3 devs out selling me without a few hours of any of their big name games

[south beacon]

hey Icky. we are all just crying about inflation, wanna join us?

[mortal fable]

They definitely weren’t

[south beacon]

If it helps, there's a chance Halo 7 might be an 80 dollar game

[vestal iron]

I did aswell

[south beacon]

We kinda expect GTA 6 to be 80 dollars. That's a given

[mortal fable]

Reggie was truly the goat

[copper oar]

Oh hell nah

[south beacon]

Surprising to hear EA is the one company saying they won't pursue it

[upper meteor]

I'm already used to it, don't worry

[copper oar]

I have a special model

[south beacon]

2K is like an antihero in these situations

[cerulean basin]

That's... a good thing. There's no reason any other studio shouldn't be happy about that, unless they happened to release their game on the same day

[upper meteor]

Today was awesome at uni though, so no reason to be crying 😁

[south beacon]

Microsoft won't hesitate.

But I expect companies that know their game will sell thousands of units are less likely to do it.

[idle spear]

Price increase backfired for Xbox though, seeing as they backtracked on the 80 dollar games, same with borderlands 4 so I think 70 will be the standard for a while. Maybe GTA6 would be the exception to that

[rigid sentinel]

No..

[cerulean basin]

I was finishing university when I got my 3DS at launch

[south beacon]

agreed.

[mortal fable]

They aren’t happy since a game made by 3 devs in beating their game in sales made by over 300

[south beacon]

I think it needs to be a price that would fit it firmly. 80 dollars will actually deter people, and no one wants to be the one to pull the trigger, especially after Nintendo (they half did it, since the game was bundled with Switch 2)

[thin nimbus]

Does the tv or monitor have to be exactly 120 fps and 4k for the xbox to run that or can it be over 120 fps and 4k?

[mortal fable]

So the cost of what they are spending on the game compared to how the game actually is looks stupid since they got all these people working on the game

[cerulean basin]

Again, why wouldn't they be happy? Most devs I know like seeing good games succeed

[south beacon]

me, and it's my achille's heel.

[tired hare]

Someone who plays EAFC 26 can help me please in dm

[south beacon]

I know you would

[copper oar]

I have the 3ds xl 12th anniversary year of Luigi

[mortal fable]

Ermmm gng triple A literally hate indie games

[tacit robin]

never mind the 3ds its all about the gameboy

[copper oar]

GAMEBOY

[thin nimbus]

Would a 165 fps work?

[cerulean basin]

Not really...

[south beacon]

That reminds me, I played Lost Crown last night after months of not

It seemed pretty good.

and you were right Anchel

[copper oar]

What about the ds

[south beacon]

All Ubisoft games are cross save

[cerulean basin]

As long as the monitor also supports 120 Hz via HDMI, sure

[copper oar]

U can play ds and gameboy games

[mortal fable]

😭they literally called E33 unprofessional and also called it deprofessionalizes their work since it rewards the few instead of the many

[copper oar]

I love Ubisoft games

[south beacon]

my real childhood was the nintendo DS

[mortal fable]

There’s plenty of articles of them openly down playing and hating indie

[thin nimbus]

Same for a tv?

[south beacon]

god I miss that era video games. I was just a simple KIND OF MAAAAAAANNN

[cerulean basin]

Come on... just because one or two devs may speak up about one game doesn't mean all AAA developers do.
Most devs enjoy playing good games and want more good games.

[south beacon]

it was something you could love and understaaaaaaaand.

[hearty plinth]

It just cant do anything above 120fps on a series console. And only has 120fps in select games

[cerulean basin]

Yes

[copper oar]

Me it was the wii ds 3ds gameboy colour ps3 Xbox one Xbox one x ps4 pc and now Xbox series x

[south beacon]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8eNoms9wsGc&

[rigid sentinel]

Not all

[copper oar]

We also played GameCube games on the wii

[south beacon]

My childhood was a bulk of DS, Wii, then into my tween years it was 3DS, then wii U for the early teen. Late teen was Switch and eventually Xbox One

[mortal fable]

😭during summer games fest plenty of studios literally get mad at the fact geoff said “it’s impressive these indie devs can stand toe to toe with the big triple A giants”

[south beacon]

ya huh

I just did it.

[cerulean basin]

And the reason you might see those articles is because it's rare to see a developer openly criticize another.
The vast majority of developers simply like good games, whether they are indie or AAA, and want more to succeed. More good games = a more healhty industry

[rigid sentinel]

Ok

[south beacon]

since 2020

[copper oar]

My dad has some rare games and consoles

[south beacon]

yay, now I don't need to play Watch Dogs Legion twice to double down on disappointment. I can do it just once and move it over to another console

[copper oar]

Has anyone heard of GTA on gameboy

[south beacon]

is one of them Conker

[cerulean basin]

Seriously, developers frequently attend events to hear and learn from other studios success stories and celebrate alongside them.

[copper oar]

I don't think we do

[south beacon]

YOU FOOL! (jk)

[cerulean basin]

There's been a few at least

[mortal fable]

😭gng it’s a vast majority of triple A devs during 2022 goty when Elden ring won Ubisoft and several other devs from other studios and ceos of them hated the fact Elden ring won

[copper oar]

My dad has GTA first 1 for gameboy

[south beacon]

that's probably the one "rare" game (no pun intended) I would push for.

[mortal fable]

I’m telling you triple A hates indie or any game that’s not theirs getting praise

[south beacon]

problem is there are too many fakes

[copper oar]

Worth about £100-£120

[swift thistle]

Increasing prices for consoles with soon to be out of date hardware
grim

[south beacon]

https://tenor.com/view/shadow-faker-hedgehog-gif-26055337

[cerulean basin]

Oh please... I've seen Ubisoft organize talks to learn from Elden Ring, and tons of Ubisoft developers who LOVE Elden Ring.

[copper oar]

I'm off to bed now

[south beacon]

though ive seen most criticize stuff like Xbox Game Pass

[copper oar]

Goodbye chat

[south beacon]

that and when someone reacts to one of their games getting remade in a negative manner

[fluid creek]

<citation needed>

[cerulean basin]

Eh, there's been a mix of both

[swift thistle]

although its probably true some devs might not like indies its probably a small minority that gets hoisted by youtube channels for engagement, people dont talk about the praise games get. that doesnt bring in money

[south beacon]

this is the internet Wendys

[fluid creek]

???????

[mortal fable]

Probably true

But from my own research it seems more like a vast majority than minority

[cerulean basin]

I work at a AAA studio and we literally have SIlksong set up in the gaming room so devs can take a break and play the game. People enjoy it so far, nobody there hating on it.

[rigid sentinel]

Taco bell*

[south beacon]

Jack in the Box**

[mortal fable]

McDonald’s

[swift thistle]

i can assure you it is not the majority

[mortal fable]

Anyway triple A sucks

[fluid creek]

lol

[cerulean basin]

I can tell you from experience that it's the majority that enjoy indie games and play them to learn from them as well

[mortal fable]

That sounds fun

[south beacon]

someone might when they get frustrated with a random boss

[rigid sentinel]

Do they have flies or bats for slugcats

[cerulean basin]

Oh, frustration at difficulty spikes is a different story 😛

[south beacon]

ok fine, call another tow company

I got a friend who is pretty bitter about Astro Bot winning GOTY last year

[mortal fable]

I am too

Should of been wukong or sote
