Ah the classic "big battle in the first 30 minutes where everybody but the protagonist dies" opening

I got the feeling there won't be battle. I mean the "He needs you " is kind of a hint. That giant looked to be in pain.

Alan Wake 2 baby!

Going to lean into horror more which is good.

Has anyone ran into the problem of the Series X constantly disconnecting from Wi-Fi?

My situation right now doesn't allow me to play wired. Every 15-20 minutes the console will disconnect from Wi-Fi for 10-15 seconds before re-connecting.

The problem started a couple of weeks ago, and a hard power cycle fixed it for a while. Now it's back and worse than ever, so after Googling, I reset the console. It worked all day fine, but now it's back to disconnecting.

I had this problem with Forza at launch. It couldn't keep a solid connection but turned out to be a Forza issue.

Does the gold to ultimate conversion still work?

 

[aleshemsky83]

I'm really impressed by RDR1 on Series S. Bought it for $10 on sale and I had heard it runs in base Xbox One mode but I can see that's not true. Looks legit 4k albeit without modern anti-aliasing. It's a good way to play this game.

It did for me about a month ago

Thanks
My subscription end in exactly 1 month. Is there any way for me to buy and convert it now or do I need to wait until it's over?

I had let my subscription run out then loaded up in gold and resubbed. Hope it works for you.

I’ve really gotten back into Flight Sim lately. Such a good chill out game.

What’s the best way to try and find a Series X at this point? STILL sold out everywhere.

I know Ubisoft takes a lot of flack, but holy moly do they have me hook line and sinker. Both Assassin's Creed and Far Cry hit exactly right for me. Love them so much

I tried playing Oddyssey and Valhalla, the opening of both games literally had me dozing off.

I think my problem with them is that the openings are so story heavy, the problem is the storys are the same caliber as they were in like 2011, while videogame stories have come leaps and bounds, they just do the same stuff that half life or mass effect did over a decade ago. Although I will say the new halo campaign has me hooked, which is pretty much just far cry.

Tbh the best way is to just buy off a scalper. Pay the extra hundo and call it a day.

I bought Xbox Gamepass for a month and I was wondering what these awards are that I can turn in? Are they prizes and what prizes are they?

Don't know where you're based out of. But, if its Canada this account with notifications helped me grab a PS5 last January and grab a Switch Oled pre-order. There are comparable accounts for the States but I don't know them off hand.

I got mine by just being on best buys website at the right time but I've heard this can be a useful tool

To follow up on the goldeneye shit, the only two people who have unlocked achievements for it are apparently Rare employees.

Something is definitely cooking here.

Mass Effect Legendary Edition hits Gamepass on 1/6.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Still one of the better remasters out there.

They did a phenomenal job touching up ME1 to make it more in line with the other two games. Better gunplay, less janky (though making every gun available to every class was a bit too far imo) and a bunch of other smaller QoL changers to bring it more in line with the trilogy.

2 and 3 look a bit better, 2 got a much needed ammo rebalancing. Enemies drop far, far too little ammo on higher difficulties and that's been touched up.

I'll be playing that. I played through 1 and 2 a couple years ago but go burnt out on three. I'll have to give it another shot.

Rainbow 6 Extraction going to Game Pass on Day 1 (January 20th)

Rainbow Six Extraction Coming on Day One with Xbox Game Pass - Xbox Wire

Ubisoft games coming to Gamepass seems inevitable
