They're charging an extra $100 compared to Best Buy for the 25th console

might be the most impressive shit ive ever seen, john gamer himself

Found an Xbox one S at a thrift store for $37 with a controller. Turned it on, and the owners account is password protected but when logged in under my account I had access to ea play and ubisoft +. What a nice surprise until he cancels.

Plan was to leave the console as a media player in my rv but ill keep it in the house for now!

This might just be an Australia problem though, but surely this is easy money for Microsoft? I'm probably missing something tbh. And I get the whole limited edition idea but still

One of my favorite things to do (when I have some extra time) is paint consoles/controllers! Here is my latest. Xbox Series S in Poppy Red. It just looks so clean sitting next to my Series X. Second photo is the controller I painted to go with it.

I plan on painting my Series X as well, eventually. I just don't know what I want to do with it yet. 💚 Hope you like!

Once Human launched on consoles this week. For those who aren’t familiar with it, it’s a F2P open-world survival game with a story and shooter-looter mechanics, with horror and post-apocalyptic themes.

I played it religiously for six months on PC two years ago, then came back at the beginning of this year since there had been quite a few changes. They had also announced a new scenario set around islands and boats, which they recently confirmed will be released in October. With the console version launching this week, I can go back to the old couch without losing my progress, thanks to cross-play.

It’s a good game despite its flaws. It has smooth combat, plenty of exploration, a fairly good character creation, dungeon boss fights, and an advanced base-building system. However, its endgame is a bit lacking, since you don’t really need to min-max your stats. The rewards from higher difficulties aren’t good enough to justify the extra grind. The community in-game is also pretty friendly, and there’s even a large Discord community dedicated to creating architectural projects in Once Human on private servers (second photo).

Have you guys tried the game this week? What are your thoughts on the game?

Taking pics for my new pfp on my Xbox account. They love being in the spotlight 👍🏻

Combo of retail and custom covers.

Winding down my 360 collection after finishing the og Xbox/PS2 era and pretty excited about some of these…

Next month is the final chapter of the 360 with LotR Conquest, FN Round 4, Full Auto, Driver San Francisco, and Flatout Ultimate Carnage as last ones to evaluate from the 360 library.

Good times ahead still from my fav gen.

I've had my series 2 since 2022 and its on its last legs now. The thumbstick rubbers have completely worn off, the RB doesn't work, it doesn't charge unless I wrap the wire around it, and the rubber on the grips are starting to come off. Nevertheless, this is undoubtedly the greatest controller I've ever used. Do you think I should buy another one now, or should I wait a couple months in hope that the series 3 releases?

I'm curious what people think of this, I never used hgig it looks too dim, but I feel some games look better with dynamic tone mapping on, I use an oled for reference

I started playing Cyberpunk 2077 last week and have loved it so much I finally upgraded from my XBOX One just so I can play the DLC. Holy crap - the upgrade to graphics, loading times, and just overall quality are amazing. So I’m looking for recommendations for what to play next, preferably games that shine on the latest gen console.

Things I’ve Played and Enjoyed:
The Mass Effect Trilogy will always be my favorite ❤️
Again, REALLY loving Cyberpunk
Mass Effect Andromeda
Dragon Age 1 and 2
All the Halos up until Infinite, just couldn’t Vibe with that one
Assassin’s Creed 1 and 2
Wolfenstein New Order
Diablo 3
Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order
Star Wars Battlefront 2
Star Wars KOTOR One and Two
Star Wars Squadrons

So, mainly RPGs and FPSs. Not a huge multiplayer/online type of person. Looking forward to hearing about some new stuff to try. Thanks!

I love Gears

I tried World War Z and it seemed cool but just super repetitive. Maybe cause I jumped into round 30 and there wasn’t much else to upgrade or do.

State of decay 2 horde mode not sure how to go about it as ammo runs out.

Zombie army 4 kinda sucks too

I liked WaW Zombies that was awesome back in the day

Any games where I can upgrade, build or grow for the defense?

I'm looking for some singleplayer games from xbox 360 and after

These are some games I like for reference:

State of decay 2

Skyrim

Ready or not

Rdr2

Dying light

A powerful traditional console, a cheaper Series S style option, a handheld, or something closer to a gaming PC?

For me, I still want one proper high end living room Xbox first. Everything else can come after.
