Horizon 3 is really cool, as is the Hot Wheels add on.

It’s also getting One X support soon.

I bought Forza 7 when I picked up my XBonx. The only other Forza game I ever played was the original for the Xbox and Forza 2 for the 360.I was hoping this game was a lot like the others I'd played. It's not really and honestly pretty underwhelming. I say this as someone who has a triple monitor setup on my PC so I can pretend to be a jet pilot or race car driver. Forza 7 kind of rides a weird line where it's not a fun pick up and play racing game and it's not serious enough to warrant spending hours learning each track before your race to ensure you shave hundredths of a second off your lap times. It looks pretty but feel soul less. Add the constant prompts to spend your virtual currency on loot boxes and I regret buying the game.

People go nuts over the lootboxes. There aren't any constant prompts to buy lootboxes. The only reason why I even remember there are loot boxes is because people keep mentioning them. That said, Forza 7 isn't super great. It isn't a big jump from 6, and it makes some things worse. The series hasn't been able to reach the pinnacle of Forza 4, which is sad because it could easily do that if Turn 10 weren't trying to do a bunch of stupid poo poo.

Yeah it seems like the best option right now is just pick up 6 if you haven't played it. If you like fun and a little more casual, the horizon series is for you. The only redeeming quality of F7 is to look nice on your Xbox one x and hopefully horizon 3 will look that nice soon anyway.

I like having both horizon and forza 7. 7 over 6 is a necessity for me since it’s the only forza game that lets you set all career races to long with increased lap count. (I find 3-4 lap races kind of insufferable). Loot box argument make me smile cause in this game you get tons of boxes by in game xp and I’ve gotten so many extra cars and millions of credits out of them

Apologies if this is a dumb question but I just got an XBO S for my kids yesterday. We have a Microsoft family account set up and it looks like I got everything working well with different gamer tags for my kids and sharing gold. Question I have is, if one of my kids signs into a game that I was playing previously (under my own GT) will they only see their own save games and such? Are they treated like separate installs entirely or are we going to have to manage not stepping on each others progress in games and such.

Also, why the gently caress are load times so bad in SWBF1? Are the any better in BF2 because I'm enjoying 1. Although it seems like the only multiplayer for a newb is walker attack unless I'm missing something.

Basically, the account that's "actively" signed in (assigned to the controller in use) has access to its own saves and ONLY its own saves, and is separate from the "license" account, especially if it's the primary console for the license account.

PUBG on the Bone runs like PUBG on Steam at Early Access release. It will get better, but it can be a little rough sometimes.

I mean, if you like to lose your poo poo when things happen don't get it, likewise if you need to let everyone know about your tiny hands.

If you disable the Game DVR (it's enabled by default) you will get markedly better performance. Buildings will almost always load in before you land, for instance.

I really liked my PS3 a lot better than my 360 and never owned an earlier version of the XBONE. I bought an Xbonx at Thanksgiving and now I play it every day. The enhanced games look almost as good as my PC and I play them from my couch which is cool.

If PUBG is the one thing that would make you get an XbonX.

So you're complaining about the fact you're constantly complaining about people not liking Xbonx enough?

You seem to really like to hold a grudge, friend. I wonder if this behavior is contagious or emblematic of certain threads here on comedy web site Something Awful Dot Com.

PUBG is pretty fun on my Day One Bone, but then again, I'm not an impossible to please manbaby that needs everyone to know how big my hands are. 😉

The performance boost is good. It's also pretty nice to see the 4K visuals to select games. I need to play a bit more than 15 minutes though, but those 15 minutes had me sold.
