[Fully Fledged]

Glad Xbox is using all that extra power.

Since when did the Medium become relevant? It's an okay game at best.
If you want to play it because it looks better on PlayStation, I'd say have fun but I pretty much know you wont.

Saying that I'm finally going to give Avengers a look now it's on gamepass. I don't know what I'll think of it since I'm not much of a Superhero fan but what the hell it's part of my subscription so I might as well at least give it a test run.

What games have they tested on the Xbox ? It doesn't have any?

They've got more first party coming out in the last 3 months of the year than PlayStation but that's hardly difficult as PlayStation doesn't have any.

Battlefield looks a bit crap doesn't it, streamers don't look incredibly enthusiastic either.

 

[El General 1994]

Halo Infinite will be the GOAT FPS.

Move over Half-Life 2. Come here Fishy.

I know I laughed as well fancy having no first party games over the holiday period. #PlayStation's got no games.

Mental isn't it, ps5 users only have a backlog of great games already released to get through.

 

[Vidyoyo]

Imagine spending £450 to have a backlog

You’ve got a RedCafe best game thread to start!

Imagine doing a weekly shop to have loads of food and choices in the fridge for the next week.

Strange how you think choice and backlogs are bad things

Probably busy cleaning the dust of the Xbox Series X.

Old games are apparently useless though as everybody on here has quite often espoused whenever anybody brought up Xbox's backwards compatibility. Then next new game is all that matters apparently.

Apart from ps5 has had enough new games released since launch to keep going. I mean, bugsnax alone is a masterpiece which you can play forever.

But they are old now we need new games for the holiday period and quite frankly you can keep bugsnax.

Poor you I can only imagine the horror of being stuck in that game endlessly.

It's quite sad what's happened to Xbox. Oh well...

Yeah having the best multiplayer FPS of this holiday season must be really hard for them to take. The amount of servers they are going to need is going to be taxing on the infrastructure. Oh wait they have got Azure happy days.

None of that is going to make any waves though is it? It's all a bit... Limp?

I think Xbox and it's players will be quite happy with it's Autumn line up. The fact that they have no need to to splash out £70 a time to play that Autumn line up makes it all the sweeter.

So... Will make no money as you guys no longer buy games? And it's not gonna get anyone off the fence is it? Starfield might...

Tell that to the other free to play games out there that are making their publishers billions every year. Add to that Gamepass is supposed to be somewhere between 24m and 30m subscribers paying up to £10 a month that's at least £2.8 billion a year hardly making no money.

Forza looks gorgeous. Halo need more deets on campaign, but multiplayer looks great.

 

[Bosws87]

Halo best multiplayer FPS

if you like a game geared towards beginners and does most of the aiming for you, sure.

Xbox gamers in a nutshell

 

[BristolRuss]

Lower resolution and FPS on the PS5 side. Ouch.

Have to let you have a consolation win every so often otherwise it wouldn’t be fair.

Forgive me for maybe stating the obvious and if this has been said. Isn't this a bit of a flawed argument? (Suggesting superiority of Xbox because Farcry performs marginally better?)

If you are a gamer looking for the very best FPS and highest resolution then surely you get a beefed up gaming PC?

Meanwhile, a console gamer has the benefit of not having to worry about hardware and the biggest benefit... Exclusives IPs.

 

[afrocentricity]

Let them have a moment, team xBox have had a very weak year...

But they’ve got half a Halo game coming out in December tbf…..

He also conveniently missed out the part where they mention that the PS5 is running at a better foliage setting the games basically in a jungle its relevant.

 

[Vidyoyo]

Better foliage

People still play Far Cry? Although I suppose when you're big system seller is another iteration of an old shooter I shouldn't be surprised the Boners are getting excited by it.

Ponies are getting excited about Medium that is a very average game.

The same one all the Boners got excited for when it hit Gamepass?

Don't worry, only a couple of months now and you'll have an "exclusive" and won't have to watch with envy as the third party games run better on the PS5.
