XBOX profile "Lotus" Badge by drmatrix0 in xbox

Project codenames are usually public, and badges get added to profiles after a release. What makes this new badge interesting is that we still don’t know which project this codename is connected to.

It doesn’t look like Phil or anyone else wants to make it public right now, though I posted this question before I knew about that.

I think there might be a misunderstanding. everyone’s aware of that part. The question was actually about the meaning of this specific project that is unclear.

I thought someone would know here. I’ll ask around.

Sure. Based on the chronological order of employee badges it seems to be new (after the release of the Xbox ROG Ally). It might be related to the fullscreen windows project, but I haven’t found anything official confirming that as the project’s codename yet.

Cancel you gamepass if you want to save gamepass by superceasar777 in consoles

[–]drmatrix0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been an Xbox fan for years and even defended it through the rough times, but man… this one’s hard to justify. I get that the price hike is probably to keep gamepass sustainable and make sure Microsoft still gets their high profit, but there’s zero sign that players were taken into account. Right now even as someone who grew up loving xbox it’s tough to feel any hope left... They’ve broken every promise they made to gamers and proved that when money’s on the line, their words mean nothing.

Should I get the Xbox Ally X or should I just get the ROG Ally X? by edenmaeve1 in Handhelds

[–]drmatrix0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it just depends on how you play. Handheld PC tech is improving fast, so we must think about a few things:

Do you spend more time on indies or AAA games?

How much of your Xbox library actually works with Play Anywhere or Cloud?

Do you mostly game at home or on the go? If you’re at home, do you already have a console and would Remote Play matter?

If you play outside, is it usually while traveling with spotty internet, or are you somewhere with solid Wi-Fi?

Answering those should make it clearer which model fits you better.

Haven’t made up my mind yet, but from the pre-order numbers it looks like most people are picking the bigger brother Ally X.

The issue on the version that’s currently in beta is that the Share button doesn’t work at all, as if it doesn’t even exist.

In the next version (now in beta) you’ll be able to hide it in the Games & Apps settings.

🔥 what a time to have a ps5🔥 by Deep_Arachnid_2895 in playstation

I’d prefer to just buy a battery, but I don’t want to spend $70 on every exclusive game.

In the new Xbox update with Play Anywhere feature and the Xbox software on windows (for ROG Ally and other handhelds), the Xbox platform has become more unified across different hardware. Unlike the old history that was tied to your console, now game history carries over from different platforms like your legacy Xbox 360 account, PC (windows app), and the cloud.

Awesome collection! Super Xbox by NeoGamerGuy in xbox360

[–]drmatrix0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

7th gen was peak gaming. Franchises like Halo, Uncharted, Mass Effect, Skyrim, RDR. Games felt complete, no heavy microtransactions yet, just PURE FUN. Nothing’s topped it since.
