I don't know if anyone else can relate to this, but I've always been an online multiplayer gamer my whole life, but ever since prices of pretty much everything have increased, I came to a realization that we shouldn't be paying for online multiplayer, so I started looking at alternatives. One of them at first was being able to do a workaround by only playing free to play games, which has been and still is a fun alternative given that there are some quality free to play games out there. However, I also realized that I had a backlog of games and games that go on sale for cheap that I could play and enjoy by myself, so I began playing them one by one over time. Anyways, If it wasn't for me refusing to pay for online multiplayer, I wouldn't have been able to enjoy these wonderfully crafted single player campaigns, shoutout to the devs who put their heart and soul to these games over the years

just got around to playing it

Coming to XBOX Series X|S / PC and Switch 2 in Summer 2027 - https://playthreadsoftime.com

Am I the only one who noticed this? I haven’t seen anything online about it. I figured it’d be a much bigger issue. I’ve tested this on multiple games, if I have a mic plugged in while talking in game chat it clips it.

I own both a PS5 and a XSX, but Xbox being my main console this has always been a huge bother for me. Playstation allowing you to clip your voice was a very nice feature. I just noticed within the past 3-4 days I can finally record my own voice. Has Xbox put a statement out about this? is this here to stay? very exciting for me.

I am mostly digital but I typically have 1 new release physical game at a time, and either sell them or trade them towards the next.

I currently had Star Wars galactic racer and enjoyed it, played it quite a bit, but I traded it towards mw4. Ever since I’ve been playing galactic racer without the disc obviously and have gotten hooked on it.

My guess is I won’t lose the access to the game/the license until the game gets through their trade hold period, then shelved and eventually sold to someone else.

Apparently, if you have the discontinued physical version of Minecraft: Xbox One Edition, while claiming digital license, you also get a modern Minecraft license.

This is the only way to get both right now, since the original migration offer expired on November 30, 2019. The "Favorites Pack" DLC works too.

One employee notes - "Depending on how large a layoff it is, it can take us a week or two or more to get our bearings back under us and figure out what we're doing."

And another notes - "Morale has been terrible. The line we kept hearing is 'do less, better' but it just felt like we were doing the same amount with less people. Upper management was very excited about Claude and the possibilities of [generative] AI, much to the chagrin of my team," said one source. 

My sympathies to those still there and are no infer at EA, you deserve better.

Active Matter has now officially sold more than half a million copies across PC, PS5, and Xbox platforms, according to publisher Gaijin Entertainment.

In a recent press release, it was shared that the hardcore supernatural shooter, Active Matter, has surpassed the new 500,000 milestone and credits its "largest share" of players to Xbox.

"Active Matter has surpassed 500,000 copies sold worldwide across PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The figure combines sales on Steam and Gaijin. Net with console versions of the game, with Xbox currently representing the largest share of Active Matter players."

Half a million copies sold in less than a month is pretty good going for a new IP, especially with the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and updates to Battlefield 6 to compete with. What makes this interesting is that the majority of Active Matter players seemingly opt for Xbox as their platform of choice.

You'd expect a hardcore shooter of this kind to be more popular on PC, but because the FPS supports Xbox Play Anywhere, you could suggest that might've swayed things in favour of Xbox.

Gaijin co-founder Anton Yudintsev also mentioned that "sales have remained remarkably steady since launch" and is now looking towards post-release content as the next major step later this year.

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy
I really had a good time playing this game and in the final act it really brings back some emotional memories.

I only had a small amount of time before leaving the house today, but every OG Xbox game I load up then shows up in the achievements list with a 0/0 and a zero gamer score, which many are assuming means they are gonna be populated with achievements, such as Morrowind and knights of the old republic, I got excited when I started checking other games, but when KOF Neowave showed up on my achievements list too, I started thinking that it’s just every OG XBOX game just shows up now on that list whether or not they actually have achievements. Maybe it’s a bug, or maybe now every game will show up on your achievements list now, regardless of whether or not they have achievements.

I know certain OG games are getting achievements, but so far, everything I try shows up on my list. Has anybody launched an OG XBOX game in the last couple of days and not have it show up in their achievements list?

No more excuses. We all know Xbox Series can run the game. WoW Forever is a new start to the wow franchise, a great launch point for console players. Controller support AND UI is now native in the game, and works well.

Asha make it happen for Christmas!
