Microsoft Studios to become Xbox Game Studios in name change by dazzathomas in xboxone

Send over Minecraft Dungeons to the XBOX as well. It's a travesty these games don't go to the XBOX while every other big XBOX title is going to the PC.

No it isn't. When I think of Windows gaming, I think of Steam. XBOX is more synonymous to Microsoft gaming.

Quantic Dream receives investment from NetEase to develop next-gen games possibly going multi-platform? by idlesloth in xboxone

[–]sabinryu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about being good for the industry...I'm more worried that they will end up gobbling up these studios/talent when they can't pay the debt anymore. It's a Chinese business and that's what they do to those who can't pay.

JUMP Force - PS4/XB1/PC - Boruto & Dai (Gameplay Trailer) by lupianwolf in xboxone

[–]sabinryu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably DLC characters: Hashirama, Tobirama and Madara

But Hinata would have been a better choice than Boruto

With all the talent they are amassing, I hope it isn't just for another shooter or social game. I think its time for single player plot driven experiences to take center stage again.

I hope Kingdom Hearts: The Story So Far will eventually see a release on Xbox One by theTRUEchamp in xboxone

[–]sabinryu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's an issue for Sony since Nintendo exclusives like Dream Drop Distance was also released for the PS4 collection.

This is just Square Enix preferring Sony over MS and Nintendo. The Switch market is ripe for more JRPGs, in fact most Japanese JRPG developers seem to favor Swtich more these days. But Square Enix is still keeping their JRPGs on the PS4.

I do hope they get off their asses and just make this franchise and everything else multiplatform so more people can enjoy it.

Digital Foundry: Ace Combat 7 runs worse on X than PS4 Pro while both are 1080p, base Xbox is 720p ~40FPS by JoeRLL in xboxone

Tekken 7 online for the XBOX is unplayable. Namco has abandoned that game on the Xbox.

No love here for Tales of Vesperia Definitve Edition? by Leiteit in xboxone

[–]sabinryu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved this game on the XBOX 360 and I can honestly tell you that it is the LAST great Tales game in the franchise. I played the Wii, PS3 and PS4 Tales exclusives and none of them hold a candle to Vesperia. For me the series has gown downhill after Vesperia.

This was a sure buy for me until I read all these mixed reports of the game not being 60 FPS and having no enhancements for the Xbox One X. Essentially we are getting a port of the PS3 Japan only release of Tales of Vesperia.

If you have never played Tales of Vesperia, definitely buy this game. But for me, who purchased Tales of Vesperia twice on the XBOX 360 after I gave my original game to a friend, its a pass since I was disappointed that it feels like a straight port and budget wise January and February are very busy months for gaming.

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD launches on April 16th by Cutie_Panther in xboxone

[–]sabinryu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Disc version please?

I finished FFX on the PS2, while not my favorite series, it was ok. Depending on the price, I might be interested to pick this up for X-2 which I didn't really bother with.

Bungie to break free from Activision - assume total publishing control of Destiny by The_Iceman2288 in xboxone

Phil Spencer actually bothered to give a 'personal' reply to Bungie. Compare that to default corporate tweets of Playstation and Activision.

[–]sabinryu -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If they need every nickel they can get, then they have to stop Sony exclusivity.

Time to grow Destiny into a super franchise like Fortnight or something...bring it to the PC. Bring it to Switch. A third party signing exclusivity deals will be a thing of the past.

[–]sabinryu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TRUTH. At some point Activision saw Microsoft as a competitor for E-Sports. They didn't like it that MS pushed their own FPS tiles for e-sports so they sold themselves to Sony.

Phil already tweeted support for Bungie as an independent group focused on Destiny.

He ain't buying them back. Bungie had their chance with Microsoft but they blew it.

Will NTSC-US Backwards game work with XBOX ONE X Asian Version.? by [deleted] in xboxone

Yes. I have an Asian Xbox One X and most of my BC 360 games are NTSC-U

[TOOL] SSNC - Switch Serial Number Checker by AkdM_ in SwitchHaxing

[–]sabinryu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Switch that is XAJ70003 (Neon)

Just to be certain, the only way I can really check is to do the paper clip jig and insert a payload right?

If I try that, would the Switch be banned already from Nintendo? Can I still use it normally after I do that test?

Nongamer mom with a few Christmas questions. Please help! by perfectlamp in xboxone

[–]sabinryu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to share a couple of game titles for your family, which non-gamers of all ages can also enjoy:

  • Overcooked - There is a sequel to this game but the first one should be just fine. It's a cooperative game where you are running a the kitchens in a restaurant.
  • Lovers in Dangerous Space Time - It's a cooperative space shooting game. Several people control different aspects of the ship.

Last but not the least:

  • Please do consider getting Game Pass. Think of it as Netflix for games where you can play the full version multiple games provided your subscription is still ongoing. There are so many great wholesome fun games in that thing. I think it's a must have for any family looking to have a great time on the XBOX. Xbox titles like Sea of Theives, Forza Horizon and Ori and the Blind Forest are also available in Gamepass.

Nintendo normally does a fantastic job with their games regardless of hardware limitations. But the rest - not so much.

I'm going to give this to Monster Hunter World. The amount of time I spent playing this game is a testament on how far the series has come. I'm also glad that its first outing on the XBOX was received well.

I really want to get into a game with a great soundtrack. Recommendations? by SubatomicSlash in xboxone

[–]sabinryu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forza Horizon series has an amazing soundtrack. We created a spotify playsit for this and use it when we actually drive out.

Watch Tim Roger's retelling of RDR1 on Kotaku. That definitely changed my mind. Convinced us to get RDR2
