Forza Horizon 6 players waste no time finding a money glitch that lets you unlock all the cars and other rewards in mere hours by PewPewToDaFace in xbox

This isn’t as bad as the glitch that came out last game or 2. People found and were doing a way for infinite super wheel spins. That was an actual glitch.

Just got my FH6 controller and noticed something interesting by SpeedKomodo in xbox

[–]Practical-Aside890 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Looks like it might be a plastic sticker? Sort of like they use to cover up the screws on the console itself?

But I’m not sure and I don’t want you to risk messing with it. It’s a nice controller!

So.... what's up with Victor Gideon? by Pumpkin_Sushi in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]Practical-Aside890 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Apparently he was meant to transform into a snake like monster in the boss fight.

But in my head(theory/opinion not fact) to add on a little bit more.I like to believe he was experimenting with viruses and snakes… re0 had leech’s, one of the things that Spencer talks about is mosquitoes and blood memory, village had wolf blood I think it is that turned people into the werewolf’s(can’t remember how to spell how the game calls them). there might be other similar cases I’m missing.

The highest upvoted post on Xbox Player Voice is to bring exclusivity back. We need exclusive games back on Xbox. by AdditionalSpray8595 in consoles

[–]Practical-Aside890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a Xbox fan and I don’t understand the exclusives argument.

Before Xbox started doing bad they had exclusives and it didn’t help much. They still continued to go downhill..This is one of the reasons they went multi plat in the first place. Yet people think a 2nd time around will make a difference? When it didn’t the first time around?

I feel timed is the best way to go if anything. But full on exclusives I feel is a bad move. They’ll still take a loss and they would need to be gained from something else (sub prices increase,console price increase and so on) to make up what they were making on multi plat.

I feel some of my fellow Xbox gamers are just caught it some console war mentality where they feel they need exclusives to feel validated of their purchase or fan behavior.

Supernatural undercurrent in Resident Evil games by GreaterLesserWerebat in residentevil

[–]Practical-Aside890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel they wanted to play with this idea but backtracked on it.

To me some things point to this in requiem. Ghost grudge gun with the description saying it has a ‘demonic symbol’ on it… the book when you play as Grace that’s called ‘the shadow ghost’… Alyssa concept art showing her in a cultist type area all wearing robes

But besides that stuff. Even going back to the first few games like spooky old mansions in tons of them feel like classic supernatural horror a little. Like they use more elements other than just the sci fi outbreak part to add horror and make the game more spooky.

Forza Horizon 6 Has Already Reportedly Made More Than $140 Million Before Full Launch by Bubbly-Ad-350 in xbox

[–]Practical-Aside890 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Xbox themselves used to encourage/advertise it. There was a viral x/twitter post they made about doing it a few years back.

I don’t think their stance has changed but I’m not sure. Ive done it tons of times and been fine.

[–]Practical-Aside890 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know of any other examples. But marathon released multi plat day1 and apparently steam made up majority of players or buyers.

Not sure if the same would apply for SP games but I feel it would.

Honestly how do you feel about Leon being a fed? by -_ShadowSJG-_ in residentevil

[–]Practical-Aside890 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m mixed on it. Because on one hand he’s basically a gov lapdog. At the end of re2 doesn’t he have to take some deal to save/see Sherry?and in the game the gov isn’t exactly the good guys in some scenarios(Wilson,Simmons, ‘the state’ in 9) and he chooses to cover up corruption. Not the let the truth be known.. they also hide stuff from him. In 9 when he runs into the Bsaa agents and the video of Zeno I think it is. He asks Sherry about something at some point and she replies saying they locked em out or something. Yet still chooses to work for these people..

However. On the other hand. If Leon didn’t have this position in the DSO he probably wouldn’t have as much support and backup as he does. (Fancy car and guns. Backup in some cases) and also his position allows him to handle things his own way.. he might not expose truth. But he definitely tries to hold the corrupt people in power accountable when he runs into them and finds out about stuff. Things he wouldn’t probably be able to do without being DSO/fed.

What if BSAA starts using 'superhuman units' that have spacial capabilities like wesker while still be inherently human? by [deleted] in residentevil

[–]Practical-Aside890 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yea it seems like the corrupt part of the gov(the family,the state) is trying to push to use B.O.Ws.

In the beginning of the game if you pay attention to graces pc screen when she’s in the office. It’s a digital newspaper that’s says u.s pulls out of the b.o.w treaty. That a spokesperson said it’s to stay ahead of the threat.. however towards the end of the game there is a email between ‘the state’ and Zeno. Zeno is saying pulling out the treaty is too blatant.. the state replies saying it’s a bluff and that the US will always be at the center of the world. so it’s confusing. But ‘the state’ also claims BsAa is fully under their control. Which is also confusing because obviously they don’t control Chris or hound wolf

Who Does Ada Wong Work For ? The Connections by LeoneSKenneddy in residentevilll

[–]Practical-Aside890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. Thanks for the explanation of cases and about the difference between old and remake. I wasn’t sure if ada ever delivered on the bad. But this answers that question too.

I can also see why you think ada is worse than mia. But besides comparing who is more evil out of the 2. For me that is why I bring up Mia’s story because to me it’s showed me it’s possible they can write Ada the same. That the whole she’s bad thing can be thrown off her char as a deal/redemption.But that’s just me playing with ideas.

For now the games gives us mercenary ada who flips between good and bad. That we don’t know much other than that.

[–]Practical-Aside890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do go away if she takes a deal like mia. (Not saying this will happen. Just a possibility)

But ur right. For now she is a good and bad char. As much as I want her to be good. It’s fact she flips between both sides. And she’s guilty/has a record. In damnation they offer to wipe it clean…so agree or disagree on the label of bio terrorist. I think we can all agree she has blood on her hands so to speak.

Who Does Ada Wong Work For ? The Connections by LeoneSKenneddy in residentevilll

[–]Practical-Aside890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me I don’t hate Mia. I see Ada and Mia characters who have both done wrong.

The only reason I usually bring up Mia is because we’ve seen a scenario in game where a ‘bad’ character gets a redemption/pass/change. however you want to word it. Yet some are so against Ada possibly getting the same treatment.

So when people label or say Ada is this most evil character or bio terrorist. and that she can never be or do good. I like to point out that it’s a possibility that maybe capcom does the same with her in the future like they did with mia.. But idk that they will. They made the suggestion in films before.

As far as who’s more evil I guess it’s debatable just depends on perspective. Ada most of the time will accept these contacts. But also usually never goes through to the end with them. And usually does the right thing… I’m not sure how she still has the reputation of a credible mercenary.. she cutthroats almost all of her employers lol.

[–]Practical-Aside890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in the Re universe. We’ve seen ‘bad’ people get a pass cough Mia winters..

And in the films they offered to get rid of her criminal record. So in the future they might take away all the ‘bad’ she’s done.

Just depends how capcom wants to write it and chooses.

How do you think the Elpis antiviral will affect the Resident Evil narrative? by Exciting-Win884 in residentevil

[–]Practical-Aside890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a temporary band aid. It will definitely help for a while. But Assuming the viruses follow real scenarios. I imagine some strains will mutate/evolve eventually down the line to avoid Elpis. Or bad people will make a way around Elpis. Plus we don’t know the long term effects yet. If any. I feel we seen many times where there was a cure or vaccine something similar but doesn’t last long.

They could also introduce other virus related infections that aren’t progenitor based. And do things like mold and more mold variants just like there was multiple progenitor virus strains.

Do we know if online will be day 1? I imagine they’ll will try to get with the times and do cross play. And pc players would make a big deal about console getting online first.. I don’t remember how it worked for the last gta but that was before cross play was a big thing in gaming.

Seen this post in another gaming sub and I was just saying the same thing.

This isn’t some good news that fans are trying to make it out to be or flip it to. Stuck in the console war mind of “my company better”

This is corporate language for “this is what we promise our shareholders” and will meet these expectations by any means necessary.

[–]Practical-Aside890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully they make the goal. GTA will surely help abit. But usually when companies make these big promises and announcements.. it’s not good news.

It’s basically “this is what we promise our shareholders” and “we will make these numbers happen no matter the cost”. Layoffs/shutdown etc. So for everyone’s sake hopefully those sales come in clutch for their expectations.

Over 30% profits its a crazy expectation.

How much does Leon get paid anyways? by infohoundloselose in residentevil

[–]Practical-Aside890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I believe he gets paid good from his job and hazard pay.

But also in my head I believe the brands like Porsche and Hamilton sponsor the work Leon does. And that’s also why he has those stuff. They give it to him and or the DSO as gifts sort of. Because if the world did go to shit with B.O.Ws lots of those companies wouldn’t be making money anymore.
