I've only played Valhalla and Skate 3 (since seeing somebody play the THPS remake recently got me feeling the itch for that again) on my Series S so far, and 3/4 times I flip back to Skate, it's a cold start. This is supposed to work with up to ~6 games? I love it so far. My son was at my parents today and was talking about wanting to get back to the exact point in his lego game, and it worked perfectly (even in mid cutscene) with no cold boot after like 7 hours. Tsietisin posted:Why does MS keep advertising game pass as having 100 games on it when there are now 348 games on game pass? Yeah, seriously that thing is amazing and I can't imagine not having it. It blows PS Now out of the water and that's not even counting the ability to buy so many OG Xbox and 360 games. After being solely in the PS ecosystem for years, it's amazing having a large part of the entire Xbox lineage available. Marshal Prolapse fucked around with this message at 22:25 on Nov 12, 2020 |

Anyone else getting crashes with Yakuza? It will just silently quit back to the Xbox menu every once in a while.

But why is it okay to add online disk checks with no added benefit to the consumer? Like needing to activate online once is perfectly acceptable when the benefit is being able to download your game from the internet, but needing it for disks and already-activated digital games does nothing but inconvenience the customer. Back when the world still existed, I’d go to weekly fighting game meetups. The venue has no WiFi, and the area we are given has no Ethernet anywhere. As the Xbox Sex works, every console would have to be activated off someone’s phone every power up. How does this do anything but detract from the experience?

Most of what these folks complain about is kind of nonsense and just console warrioring, from my perspective(like the only 3 games on series S stuff). But this one is a pretty fair criticism, if it indeed is limited in this way. Admittedly, the impact is probably relatively small, but it is worth talking about and confirming the details on.

so has no one bothered to fully shutdown their series x, unplug a network cable, start it up and see if there's anything to these rumours? that shouldn't take more than 5m with a digital and physical check

American McGay posted:I did this just now and booted into Yakuza CD off of a cold boot with no internet connection, so I'm guessing this guy is just an idiot. I see in that thread now at least a few others have tested it and come to the conclusion that it was bunk as well. But he doesn't seem to be taking any of that in/changing his opinion based on that new info. So probably not someone you should trust anything from in the future either. More console warrioring. It looks like all the same basics still apply from last gen. You have to be on your home console for digital titles to play offline, etc. And moving content from one console to another, like an external hard drive, the content needs to reregister/certify itself for the new console. This is again, something we already knew. A product like Rock Band with its thousands of individual pieces of DLC is a prime example of this. It isn't awesome, but it's not new.

Ok, So ordered my console from MS while watching the Launch stream as finding a preorder in the UK was loving impossible while working a fulltime job... And I was charged today so with any luck it should arrive no later than Saturday (I hope).

My first ever Xbox Game pass is cool. Oops I ran out of space. It’s ok I plugged in an ssd Oops the ssd ran out of space. I imagine this’ll get better as I get less curious about downloading every possible game on gamepass I am constantly lost in the shop menus. There are many different ways to see games and sometimes they have filters and sometimes they do not even if they are the exact same list of game pass games. I can’t tell what is downloaded and what is downloading. Forza is a cool game

Zachack posted:Any game made prior to at least 2000 should be public domain. Games from back then are largely valueless except to specific niche interests and the market that preys on that niche. Preservation is almost totally meaningless when it's locked in private collections or behind a legal barrier. Oh well, I guess until then I have my RetroPie arcade cabinet.

THE AWESOME GHOST posted:My first ever Xbox Hey fellow digital downloader polluter! I’n lucky I still had a 2tb one in my PS4 Pro to swap out. I’m also happy that moving between cold storage for a game on an external drive to the internal hard drive is so quick. Honestly makes managing the storage a bit easier.

I haven't interacted with the Xbox ecosystem much since the early days of the Xbox One, but streaming it to my phone is pretty dang cool. Although the S is small enough that I could just pack it up and bring it around without much effort

The new phone streaming thing is really slick for casually playing your home console while you or your SO are watching something on the TV. I've used it to dick around in THPS while watching NFL games on a Sunday afternoon.

Are there any old Dance Dance Revolution games that can be downloaded or loaded onto a Series X? If so, is old dance pad hardware supported?

crackhaed posted:Are there any old Dance Dance Revolution games that can be downloaded or loaded onto a Series X? All of the main Bemani stuff is trapped on PS2 to this day. There was some Dance Dance Revolution Universe stuff on 360 but you need an actual 360 for that as well as any compatible hardware. You might even need an Asian region Xbox for some stuff (unless you softmod).

I just realized we argued about this ages ago but as predicted Ori and the Will of the Whisps did indeed get a Switch bump in line with predictions and hit 93, making it critically better than Hollow Knight. It is not a 93 much less a 90 game in my opinion. Quantum of Phallus posted:Are Crimson Dragon and Rare Replay the only actual Bone exclusives? Lococycle, too, I think.

Kinect stuff, Powerstar Golf, an lol random DLC pack for Dead Rising 3, Halo 5 technically, Forza Horizon 2 and Forza Motorsport 5 and 6. And then I guess miscellaneous 360 titles.
