Gaming stocks are at all time highs. Things have NEVER BEEN BETTER FOR THEM. All while they are letting people go and complaining that they need to increase prices and that it takes ten years to make a game. The narrative isn’t true. Don’t defend the industry or believe their lies.
comment in response to post
Well then what explains the historic rise in videogame stocks? My point is that the industry is cutting costs and driving services and increasing prices and gamers are paying the price. The industry is better than ever. We are the suckers.

I haven’t been able to install it. The login system seems to be broken for me.

What isn’t compatible?

So then the claims that the videogame industry is bigger than Hollywood and music (combined) must be exaggerated? Or, more likely, publishers and developers are making bad investments into projects with insufficient returns. We had 3 Final Fantasy’s on PS1 and PS2. Now it’s a service.

If the industry is so big then why can’t they make it work? Either the industry isn’t big enough or the costs are too high or they are making bad investments. IMO it the latter two. Badly structured businesses doing dumb things.

I am loving Raidou. Definitely Xenoblade vibes.

I feel the same way! There is nothing driving me to keep playing and I don’t care about the ending lol

I’d rather put my list here as your link requires a login most likely for data mining purposes.

I want them to go back to building worlds like 4-6, 9, 12 and FFT.

Oh no lol! Please don’t put copilot on a handheld!

This is the best purchase I’ve ever made. For real.

How is it hard? Maybe I can help?

We have already have PC’s. I have SteamOS installed on my PC and it works perfectly well. Controllers, multiple stores, emulation. I can play Bloodborne at 60Hz / UHD. Whatever PC Microsoft launches and calls an Xbox it’s going to be hard to beat this.

True.

Probably only half of the opening video ;)

This. Our backlog is CRAZY! I’m so happy that I resisted the fomo!

Who writes this stuff?

A great man and a perv.

Well his lane means paying $90 for Outer Worlds 2 when Clair Obscure is only $50. His parent company is evil.

I’ve been having so much fun with Xemu and Xenia! These reverse engineered emulators are great. Bringing back tons of nostalgia. They’re not perfect, some games can be a bit finicky, but they run impressively well. Work great on Steam Deck too!

Yes… and they’re cheap, open and wonderful.

I listened to it and bless you for being informed and on top of recent developments. The rest of the cast… not so much. Must have been a busy day.

I don’t think you’tr trans… right? Actually nm it doesn’t matter.
comment in response to post
Yes. Thank-you for so many years of fun. My dad introduced me to the Xbox 360 and ever since we’ve bonded over our favorite games. Will miss the Xbox as we move to Windows gaming… but the memories will always be with me!

Greatest handhelds ever. Great games, great value, great battery life and reasonably affordable. I would be all over a DS 2.
comment in response to post
Cool. If this is an independent podcast I’ll give it a try :)
comment in response to post
Don’t think the kind of gamers that would by these games care about journalists reviews. These are old games that we’ve already played elsewhere.
comment in response to post
Ummm… this already exists. Been playing these games on my Steam Deck for ages.
comment in response to post
Well… it’s able to emulate PS4 games so you never know!!
comment in response to post
I mean… it’s obviously just going to be a windows 11 PC. Calling it an Xbox and pretending it’s a console is disrespectful to consumers.

The libertarians are the only effective opposition to Trump. Yes, be scared… and ask what the left is up to? Wasting time on shit that doesn’t matter.
comment in response to post
Three hours? That’s crazy!
comment in response to post
I use both. They both have problems. But they each have strengths. On X there’s more people and more fulsome discussions. On BS it’s more tame and chill (unless you mention T or M)
comment in response to post
I guess there’s fomo but generally waiting is better. Without games it’s just e-waste. When a solid exclusive RPG or Zelda game comes out I’ll look into it. My Switch and Steam Deck are carrying the load for now.

The future of Xbox gaming is a €900 handheld machine that runs windows and doesn’t play my Xbox games?
comment in response to post
Wait!! The future of gaming is PC gaming? Pshah… we knew this 20 years ago!
