Not worth it to me currently. But I figured it’s probably not gonna get any cheaper than right now so I picked it up.

It needs more first party games.

Articles were going around yesterday talking about Microsoft’s next console being digital only.

Well that’s your fault too. Your company decided AI was more important.

Isn’t this the kidna shit people said would happen before Xbox went and spent billions acquiring studios?

It’s supposed to be part of a big reset by the new CEO but they’re literally doing the same shit every other CEO has ever done when they take over. Whether it works or not remains to be seen, but losing double fine and Nina theory in the process fucking sucks major ass and makes me think this is a doomed pivot.

Xbox gave me xbmc. It’s ok in my book.

One more harness, bro.

I don’t think Microsoft actually releases games. They just announce them, delay them, and cancel them.

I pay for

My domain: $75 for 5 years

Usenet newsgroup access: $75 a year

Internet: $100 a month.

I do all that with sonarr. Custom quality profiles with size ranges to look for depending on the resolution wanted and quality profile selected.

You can also tell it to only keep specific episodes, or seasons. I only keep the first 10 seasons of The Simpsons as example. Or The Daily Show, I only keep the last 10 new episodes.

My thoughts exactly

Well it has what, 6 exclusive games?

now they’re pulling exclusivity because they believe it negatively impacts their ability to sell PlayStations.

Could be several reasons, but this sounds really plausible. Could also do with the rumors about steam being on Xbox, which means Sony PC ports will be on Xbox too.

But I still think Sony’s gonna learn you can’t put the genie back in the bottle.

If I didn’t know better, I’d say Sony hates the fact that PC players pushed back on having a PlayStation network requirement on PC games. And they wanted that data.

But Sony is famous for making super bad decisions and backpedaling so I wouldn’t worry too much. Worst case, their exclusives will be emulated and pirated someday.

If anything, it has encouraged people like me who were happily buying exclusives on PlayStation and PC to stop spending any more money on PlayStation though.

This whole comment thread raised my electric bill by $.02/kwh

Why pay anything to play online?

Again?

I just watched the Digital Foundry video on this and the way they fuckin glaze over this tech just disgusted me enough to unsubscribe.

How about the part where they had to use 2 RTX 5090’s to do this? One for the game and one for DLSS 5?

Please try and justify that.

Lol. Lmao, even! Micro transactions and battle passes get enshitified like everything else.

They brought Leon back.
