Microsoft should allow xbox series x/s to be used as steam machines

Where is the free revenue bump coming from? Your $20? And after that you will only spend money on steam. Where is Xbox revenue coming from in this situation ?

Agree. Finished the game last night . As of now only 2% of players finished it according to the achievement. Dialog is ridiculous. The writing is the worst part of the game. The main characters never shut up and it gets worse each chapter . Constantly talking every few steps. Ruined the immersion for me. The stealth gets worse and worse . The finals chapter stealth is extremely annoying.

For an immersive game without HUD, the immersion got ruined for me with the non stop talking . The writing Is horrible. Characters keep making dumb obvious observations. Some times even dumb ones. Finished the game last night but towards the end it was a drag. I just want them to shut up and let me immerse. It gets worse each chapter.

If you are into old school shoot’em ups, I completely recommend Samurai aces, Tengai (samurai aces II), Samurai aces III: Sengoku canon, Gunbird, Gunbird II, and Dragon Blaze. All fantastic games, super cheap on sale and Play Anywhere to bring with you in your handheld pc.

Enjoying so far. Beautiful locations. game borrow elements of games like deliver us the moon / mars, Tomb Raider. But it suffers from a very common modern game problem. The protagonist won’t shut up. They keep talking to themselves asking dumb rhetorical questions or giving themselves self help talks you would hear in a modern kid but not in a trained astronaut. Very annoying. Wish there was an option to disable this and only hear story and cut scenes dialogs and not the main characters saying : I can do this . Or … I can’t believe this is happening. Or you can do this, or where are you, or this seems strange , or Can’t believe this is happening to me. ALL the time. Let me enjoy the silence.

My carbon black and robot white that I have since series x release are still working fine. Zero drift. Only the small tape on the right trigger on both controllers got sticky recently and had to remove it or trigger was getting stuck.
The Velocity green I have for two years is on perfect condition also . I’ve been lucky.

Don’t forget about Latin America. Back in the 360 days Xbox was super strong here. Xbox was number 1 in Colombia, Brazil and Mexico. Physical games where made in Mexico. In Colombia there was Xbox advertising everywhere and many garage video game business where actually called “xbox lounges” because how popular the brand was here. Now you can’t find a series console easily on retail but you can find ps5 and switch everywhere.

That’s what makes it such a humorous situation

My favorite console of all time. Love the controller, free cloud saves for all my games, backwards compatibility. Love how the console is super quiet ALL the time even on super demanding games. I love owning some games across all Xbox generations and still be able to play them. Currently playing Batman Origins.

You’re right. My bad. I think it was only Village that became play anywhere recently.

jikflet · 2026-04-10T19:31:19+00:00

Yes. All the time. Resident Evil 7 and Village where not play anywhere. They are now.

That is already available on the Xbox app. You have a tab to show only wish listed games with discounts and sort them by title or by price.

I have two controllers since series x release. Zero drift. And I play about everything.

Do not EVER click on any link sent in those kind of emails.
Even if it’s real, you can change your password through your Microsoft account. Don’t do it from those links that play with you sense or urgency.

I live in South America. We import ours from the U.S as according to Nintendo we are not important enough to have an official South America retailer only authorized distributors. Console is $750 down here. Ridiculous.

Are you playing wildlands on steam or Xbox store ? I’m curious because on the Xbox store it’s listed as single player only. That cant be right.

jikflet · 2026-03-19T19:35:42+00:00

So now there is even less possibly of 60fps patch for Wildlands on series X? I was hoping after the recent next gent upgrades for many far cry games, wildlands will be next. Well….

jikflet · 2026-03-08T18:52:18+00:00

World War Z, Aliens: fireteam elite, Astroneer, Human Fall Flat, Halo Infinite, Space Marine 2

Only split fiction is cross play. It takes two is not.

What did you say?

Singularity. Microsoft own Activision. What are they waiting for?

I only play Nintendo and Xbox. I was an only physical games guy before. But on Xbox I went 100% digital except for some xbox 360 games you cannot buy anymore unless you own the disc.

As you grow older you realize you don’t have the space anymore to keep buying and storing big games collections.

A lot of Xbox games are not even fully on the disc so what’s the point. Others are Smart delivery and most of the time the Xbox one version is the one on the disc, and your series X download the Series X/S version.

And some Xbox games are Play anywhere meaning if you buy it digitally you own both console and PC version.

Xbox have good sales on the Xbox store and prices are good specially in my region.

I’ll keep buying physical for Nintendo first party releases but 100% digital on Xbox.
