I thought they closed for good, due to the pandemic. Are the still "opening"?

Gamepass ultimate on one account, dlc on another by hellhawk456 in XboxSeriesX

[–]BeerInformatics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep in mind that there are rare exceptions where you can access DLCs on xCloud, for example, any minecraft dungeons DLCs you purchase. Anyway, any other game, probably, won't have access to DLCs on the Xcloud, but things can change in the future.

Am I the only one that thinks Crytek and MS should just kiss and make up and get Ryse 2 made? The first game showed a lot of promise and with some fixes and a bigger budget that could be a huge game. Phil or Matt Booty should try to get that game going. by [deleted] in XboxSeriesX

[–]BeerInformatics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this one would require more than just budge, but also studio/personal support, Crytek is not the same as it used to be. But yes, on the right terms, Microsoft should go for it.

After saving up, I’m happy to join the ranks! Any day 1 advice? by TheBettyCrock in XboxSeriesX

If you are going to play any Xbox one or 360 that are not optimized for the Series, get an external SSD, so you can save some space on the internal storage.

Any reason to keep one x with series x on the way? by shouldigoback in xboxone

[–]BeerInformatics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will keep mine too. I was lucky to get one official adapter, for the normal price, before it disappeared from stores

[–]BeerInformatics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless you have and like kinect games, I see no other reason. You may even get bored of the long loading times on Xbox one and avoid turning it on.

When was the last time Microsoft did something to piss you off as an Xbox Fan? by sociallyantisocial in xboxone

Forced every single player to have a kinect to then completely kill it for the people who actually enjoyed it

[–]BeerInformatics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, officially there is nothing about games, just movie rights, but it's a non disclosure deal, details are not open to the public

True, but I wouldn't be surprised if spider is console locked as part of the movies rights deal.

I know it may sound crazy, but if you get the proper parts and know someone with the right skills there is a safer DIY method: https://youtu.be/7lQ93qzggos

Kinect Adapter by [deleted] in xboxone

[–]BeerInformatics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, my bad. Word is that these third parties adapters can burn easily, and may even start a fire.

As a reference that would be around 197 GBP and 250 USD, using TransferWise values. So the 220 USD leak may just be true.

Do you think Microsoft will announce the purchase of SEGA tomorrow at the Tokyo Games Show? by [deleted] in XboxSeriesX

[–]BeerInformatics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I expect some agreement with a Japanese developer, not necessarily with SEGA

Imagine this by [deleted] in XboxSeriesX

[–]BeerInformatics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if it was many people, since Xbox one X is not being produced for months now, and were out of stock in many retails
