I only played for like a few hours, but it feels more like Call of Duty : Halo. You're part of a squad that does squad things. I'm enjoying it enough.

That's enough of a twist for me to give it a try, thanks.

Subnautica didn't click with me; I really hate resource gathering. The environment was incredible, but I just wanted to be free to explore it without having to upgrade my base and gear.

Uhh, is it normal for the PC beta app to just randomly uninstall your games? I fired it up to install the MCC and find that it's downloading all of Darksiders 3 over again for no goddamn reason

This happened to me with Gears of War 4 and I'm not sure why it happened. That game is like 150GB so it was a total hassle. It hasn't happened again but I don't know what caused it in the first place.

Okay, I figured it out. It depends on how you log on to the Windows store. I googled "Halo Reach Windows Store" and got a page that had reach listed as Console game pass only. I then found a link from a news story that was an identical looking page, but had pc game pass included.

Honestly the whole Microsoft Store experience is truly loving abysmal. Anytime I need to search for, install or update a game it's like pulling teeth. Forza Horizon 4 took me 2 weeks and several unsuccessful "download/delete/reset store" cycles. The fact that Microsoft is so bad at this on their own platform is baffling.

There's no obvious way to tell if you're looking at the PC or console game page from the URL or anything.

You need to scroll a bit down and it will say Available On, and either Xbox One or PC.

Scarlett is two consoles, one discless with the tflops of ps4 pro and a modern cpu codensme lockhart, the other codenamed anaconda is the actual next gen unit.

Neither of these consoles will have exclusives and all 4 xbox skus will be supported with games.

A modern cpu would probably help a ton with current games.

Well, theoretically I think maintaining the current gen makes sense; as I've said multiple times before, I don't see how you can build a game for some whiz-bang new system that runs at 4K60 but also does stuff that's flat-out impossible to make function at 900p30 on the current machines or whatever. But lol sucks to be a dev working on four SKUs just for Xbox.

MGSV was cross generation while still looking like a true next gen game on current consoles.

MGSV was great on PS3/360, totally uncompromised gameplay-wise and perfectly playable on those consoles. So was Destiny 1, for that matter. And GTA 5, a.k.a. also the best-selling game on THIS gen.

It still cracks me the gently caress up that the Game of the Generation (it's true motherfuckers) is a janky last-gen port with broken online they never bothered to make a Pro/X patch for.
