Images and details have surfaced of the most expensive and feature-rich video game controller for Xbox One, Xbox One X, and PC, the Xbox Elite Controller v2. The original controller is still quite popular with gamers who especially enjoy racing games.
Xbox is making waves on PlayStation.
When you think about it, it's crazy.
Great ideas and success are sometimes born out of defeat.
This is honestly so laughable. Outside of sea of thieves being a new game and releasing in just a few days. COD and Fallout were popular on Playstation long before Microsoft decided to buy them. I have seen bots go from saying Microsoft shouldn't bring Xbox games to Playstation, to using this as a flex. Guess they have accepted Microsoft is moving forward with Playstation with or without them. If this continues, I see the Xbox console selling worse than the S/X
Yep won't be long before we see every Xbox title flooding the Playstation store to try to recoup some of that $68.7billion Activision buyout.
Probably won't stay in the best sellers list long though, I would guess Fallout 4 is really back in there as it's on sale at the moment for £4 in the UK and the free PS5 upgrade is out at the end of the month - FOMO.
But yes, Starfield, Hellblade 2 even Gears & Halo will all be there by this time next year, for better or for worse.
Give Playstation fans an even bigger lineup to choose from.
Sony has launched a BAFTA Game Awards 2024 section on the PlayStation Store that lists the different games nominated this year.
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Day one purchase
Day one
“However, one questionable thing is the use of undetachable batteries, most modern controllers allow users to take out batteries on their own...”
Most “modern” controllers? Definitely not modern at all. Isn’t the Xbox One the only one that does this? To my knowledge, not even Nintendo does this with their own controllers anymore. Most of this rumor seems fake with those pictures. Didn’t download that file to see more.
nice
