@Medic_alert Exactly while I don't think anyone is trying to "trick" people into spending money I think your right to put a ceiling on your gaming purchases I can't think of any games coming out or that have come out in the past worth paying 80 quid day one and everything goes on sale a couple months after release anyways!
@Oram77 Doesn't work like that unfortunately probably won't change either remember the day one dlc for mass effect 3 many many years ago. Standard practice nowadays probably a decade later aswell!
@Propaperpusher It's also been reported that Microsoft have confirmed the next gen Xbox will be coming but you guys are just having so much fun with the thought of Xbox not releasing another console nobody is updated the story with that FACT like they do with every other story! Haha
These be crazy times alright as a Xbox gamer it's crazy once they keep on supporting this gen of consoles for a few years I should be good π€· It's really just f'd up don't know what to think! Worst case scenario buy a playstation next gen or ps5 in the next couple years! Could be worse in fairness there will definitely be a way to play my games with my Xbox profile going forward what form it will take god knows!! Phil and whoever else need to address these rumours soon!
@Titntin I have literally no problem with the article but you and others are wondering why people would be getting defensive because there certainly are a lot of comments about people just because they use the Xbox or gamepass it's there to see if you look! I'm not heartbroken over this I wouldn't have a clue how profitable gamepass is or isn't nor would it effect me if it was or wasn't! There's a lot of assumptions of what I'm thinking feeling but I'm ok Xbox is a hobby I have much bigger things to be stressed or down about I'm not happy about the price rise but that's life it is what it is! I like this site also it has much more community than pure and good discussions so that's why I'm here! I'll continue to be my happy upbeat self though.βοΈ Just giving some perspective as to why some people are commenting negatively because there are comments belittling Xbox gamers for just being Xbox gamers. The article I have no problem with it's news! Happy weekend gaming to you too βοΈ
@AhmadSumadi Nobody loves a company but a lot of the criticism isn't just for Microsoft it's for the users of it loads of people on there high horse making out anyone who plays on Xbox is an idiot that why people are probably so defensive as most people are criticising the users aswell the company!
@Ricky-Spanish And don't forget the classic hit that Xbox players don't buy games thrown around! The negativity and criticism isn't solely being aimed at a company it's being aimed at the users also!
@Titntin I don't remember many people thinking gamepass sub prices wouldn't go up its more the fact most people here aren't just talking bad about the company it's mostly about Xbox gamers we are fools deluded fan boys zealots who couldn't see any price increase coming although most of of us did probably not to this extent in fairness!
And if anyone goes against that narrative they are a "fanboy"!
If all the negativity was towards the company you wouldn't get people reacting in defense as much but theres a lot of ridicule for people just owning and using an Xbox or gamepass!
Surely you can recognise that also aswell as the irony??
The hate is quite strong here I must say!
Ps5 has outsold Xbox series console at like a 5 to 1 ratio it's shouldn't really be surprising thats where it sold the best even if gamepass wasn't a thing π€·
But aren't Sony and playstation the dominant force in the industry?? This doesn't make sense how is Microsoft/Xbox a dominant force when the console is dead??
This weekend I'll be on assassin's creed unity only started it the other day and I'm loving playing a proper old school assassin's creed game again after almost a decade away from the series! I'll also be on Helldivers 2 and wheel of fortune just for the laugh! I'll also try fit in some cod beta if I can! Happy weekend y'all ππΊ
@sanderson72 Thanks a lot for that I'll definitely a 7200 version of the pro console if it's hands down best version. I just want it to play the exclusive games on it. And I'll definitely look into getting some thermal paste applied if it's that cheap to do so! Thanks buddy βοΈπͺ
Hopefully releasing these games on playstation can give the series a new lease of life because 343 did a terrible job with halo infinite! It was basically a farcry game and the multiplayer is long dead! They need to get this remake or whatever right because halo hasn't really been relevant since the 360 days!
@Rich33 @Northern_munkey Thanks for the offer input guys!π I only want to spend a couple hundred on the console so it will have to be last gen for now I have a 4k TV so that's why I was thinking about ps4 pro but if it's very loud over the base version it might be worth it biting the bullet over resolution π€·
As a Xbox gamer ( don't hate me) I'm gonna pick up a cheap PS4 or pro soon! I just want a machine to play the playstation exclusives but nothing to break the bank! Is the base PS4 good to go from or should I get the pro?? I've heard there's not a great difference in both consoles? Any advice would be appreciated πβοΈ
@SMJ The 360 was an amazing machine and played a lot of games better than the opposition you are right!
The red ring of death issue was only with the original big 360 and only the first couple versions and the console excelled despite that!
Some of this sites users are very biased against anything Xbox related!
@LordVile Very good only problem is the 360 came out about 10 years before gamepass even existed but congratulations on connecting obvious dots π

@DennisReynolds I totally agree with you scores are just opinions there been plenty of games that have scored badly I've literally loved and others that got a high I couldn't take to at all! Different strokes for different folks!
