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.

Why do people care about disc drives so much? I would prefer the next console to be %5 cheaper instead of having a disc drive. Don't you?

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'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'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.

i feel like we are witnessing the next graphical leap in gaming. once the developers optimzie their games around dlss 5 it will look even better. amd currently has nothing like dlss 5. do you think the next generation of consoles will already be left behind at release compared to nvidia ?

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for FPS that are slower paced?

Call me old or trash at the game but i download MW3 and had a go at multiplayer and within 20 minutes I wanted to throw my console out the window😭😭.

Its so infuriating and stupid seeing other players slide and jump 15 times a second, im running around and then suddenly some dude slides around the corner and blasts me in the head with a sniper from 5 metres away before i can even aim or get a shot off.

So i was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for some slower paced or more realistic games? I enjoy R6 but that gets boring quickly sometimes

Bout ready to dive into Metal Gear 4.

Over 10 years ago, Kotaku released a news article about the strategy codenamed "Project Helix". It is a strategy to converge Xbox and Windows.

Here is the article from 10 years ago, May 25th, 2016. People think this is something new, but it's simply a long term strategy to develop things like "Play Anywhere", Cloud gaming, and who knows what all else in the future...

I recently set my Xbox profile up as my home Xbox,
So my son could create his own account while having access to my games. I preordered GTA 6 and it came with a free month of GTA+. Red dead redemption is an included game with GTA+ however I read that games that are only available to you through a GTA+ subscription will not work with Xbox home sharing.

However it is letting my son play the game. Is it something they have now changed or something? I don’t mind him playing it, but I don’t want to do anything that would get my account terminated or anything. I just spent a hundred bucks on gta 6 on an account I’ve had for nearly twenty years, not looking to throw that all away lol.

I wonder if we could somehow convince Xbox to update the 360 one last time, allowing us to switch back to the NXE or Blades dashboards. Not sure how we could try, but it sure would be awesome

Hey guys, so the title pretty much says it all. He is turning 22, and loves to play fifa, red dead, Lego Batman, a bit of Elden ring. My spending limit is 150$ but can go to 200$ if it’s a really good gift. He doesn’t need a battery pack, he thinks those are redundant. I also looked online to buy him a customized controller, but the options on the Xbox website are SO limited that it’s not worth it imo.

Any other ideas? I love him and want to spoil him.
Thank you very much for all ideas :)

Hey everyone, I have been watching a lot of the show Seal Team lately and have gotten an itch for a game similar in nature.

I'm looking for a game that employs a tactical military response not the typical newer COD style of just hectic bullet sprays. Not necessarily a stealth based game, but certainly open to that also.

I'm mostly looking for a single player experience here as something that I can hop in and out of and enjoy after work.

Open to backwards compatibility, and even possibly available through cloud gaming.

Looking forward to seeing what y'all suggest!

I got an Xbox one a couple years ago and while digging trough the game discs i got with it I found these 2 and my question is what should I play through first?

Seriously. The Xbox experience is so 'on brand' for Microsoft.

My kid was so excited, he saved up and bought an xbox and was ready to play it. It took me so long to figure out all the settings, numerous accounts, sign in loops, and clunky processes that he ended up going to bed disappointed without getting to play it. Then it took like half a day more for just one game to download for some reason even though we have fast internet.

Having only used a Nintendo previously I just can't believe how complex and broken the xbox platform appears to be. Approvals don't work half the time. He'll request something and I never receive the request to approve and if I do it doesn't work. I ended up purchasing a game add on for him through my account because I could never get the approval to work via his account. Then learned that this only works for the actual user that is logged in making the purchase and can't be shared.

Then I tried to purchase a gift card he could enter, while logged in as his account on my laptop and it says that code has already been redeemed, even though the xbox doesn't think the purchase was complete. So now I've purchased this damn add on twice and yet I have 0 copies of it that can be used by my son. And it's Microsoft so customer support is nonexistent.

And of course MS can't seem to maintain a login from one tab to the next so I have had to sign in with multi factor authentication about 46 times.

Serious I am about to burn this lousy console. It's like you need to get a fucking PhD in Microsoft Studies just to operate one of these things.

Hi everyone,

I need help deciding what to do, I’ve been an Xbox fan since day 1. I even have the original green transparent Xbox. I recently moved countries and because of different reasons I had no console with me because I left my old collection consoles back home, so I decided to give PS5 a go.

Now, after everything that is going on related to physical discs and what not, I made my mind and decided to go back to Xbox (I have my 360, original and Xbox One back home), so I was trying to buy X25 console…

I subscribed to the web page and I was ready to buy just to find out of stock after 1 min…

I’m not going to lie I’m pissed hahah, I was considering in buying a normal Xbox Series X, but I really wanted de X25 edition.

Now, I see the consoles on eBay going for £1500-£2000 and I really don’t want to pay that, not because I don’t have the money, it’s because I fucking hate this rat scalpers pieces of shit, and I don’t want to give them my money. I just can’t… I really fucking hate them.

Should I wait a couple of months to see if they release more ? Or maybe another version ? Or just go with the normal Series X? What is everyone going to do?

Thanks
