Was anyone expecting any major existing franchise games this year? Surely they would have announced them by now.

I’m pretty sure Sony only says things like “we don’t make enough money” and “oh poo poo better start porting” just to add to the loving piss take that is their ongoing approach to Bloodborne and the Demons Souls remake.

Speaking of games that aren't AAA dish water, everyone itt should go play Gris if you haven't. It's on Gamepass, it's like 4 hours long, and it's one of my favorite games of all time.

GP is perfect for the small games that are polished and don‘t overstay their welcome. And would simply be too expensive for my stingy rear end to buy. Gris, cocoon, The Gunk, Close to the sun, Figment and so on. Play them!

It's a little surprising only because there were some rumors about a PS5 Pro this holiday, but I feel like even Sony isn't bold enough to start selling that thing without a marquee game, even if they do Last of Us Remastered Remastered or whatever

None of the PS5 Pro rumors have been credible. Pretty sure such a console is not going to happen.

What would they even put in a pro? GPUs are more powerful now but theyre also more expensive and really big and power hungry

The new Deep Rock Galactic vampire-survivors type game is really fun, and hopefully it comes to game pass.

I think it's good Nintendo will get Sea of Thieves because it's a very Nintendo-y game and kids that check it out will probably love it, plus it's Rare which makes it extra suited imo but the announcement might be awkward because I don't think the Switch could run it very well. It would make a really good launch title for Switch 2 later this year but Phil can't spill Nintendo's beans all over the place like that so I guess maybe they'll just say this stuff is coming to Nintendo and keep it vague. I wonder if Xbox has Switch 2 devkits?

just run it through cloud streaming like game pass uses. put game pass on switch and stream everything imho.

Remote streaming is ftw and Xbox.com/play is pretty decent but it’s always in a complimentary fashion. When you’re on a trip or you wanna play something while your SO ties up the TV. Streaming as your only method of playing games is some insano poo poo.

One question about the Gamepass "trick" I keep seeing people talk about online. That assumes you're already paying for Xbox Live right? Like if I just wanted to get PC game pass and had no other existing services and didn't own an Xbox, there's no conversion trick or anything I'm missing out on right?
