Xbox One X

Game Pass only last as long as your sub if you decide its not something you want anymore ANY content acquired under the Game Pass is lost until you renew your sub. So its locked forever to that sub.

I assume game saves remain even if you say later opted to renew or go for a disk copy?
 
Only 2 games have been removed from Game Pass since it's inception. And you're given fair warning as well when a game is going to be removed so if you think you will play a lot of the games included by it the £24 for 6 months is a bargain.

That's not true unfortunately. Just Google it, depends on your store I think, but at least 21 disappeared in May, and more have disappeared previously.
 
Rise of The Tomb Raider HDR. I stated a few pages back it looked very poor as the opening Soviet Gulag scenes did look poor to me.

Now playing it again a bit further & the outdoor lighting scheme has changed totally (from dull to very vibrant) so it no longer looks poor at all but has a stunning use of HDR (apart from the opening snow scenes in half light). Its must be a bug they left in as the HDR does not seem to work properly when the global lighting scheme is not daylight.
 
Just put in Black Panther UHD disk and it wouldn't play.

Had to hold the disc while the Xbox was taking it in twice to get it to work as instructed on a Youtube video.

What's that about then?

UHD DRM bug also MS still need to patch some other stuff like leave a physical disc in the drive turn the X1X off. Then when you power back on the game will not work until you eject the disc & reinsert again! Another one I found is games with HDR sometimes stop you launching other games with HDR. Quit a HDR game go back to the dashboard try to launch another it does not always work sometimes need a soft reset. Niggly things MS need to fix!

Thanks for the info.:)
 
I'm thinking of trading in/selling my xb1x, now that the novelty of the new tech has gone I'm left with a powerful piece of kit with no real killer exclusives to look forward to, there's only Halo 6 that really interests me, and as I traded my ps4 pro in towards it I'm gonna be missing out on loads from Sony
 
Really? I thought the Sony exclusives was looking a bit poor other than Spider-man and The Last of Us II.

No interest in Forza Horizon 4?

Day's Gone
Ghost of Tsushmia
Death Stranding

Not enough info yet on them but look promising, FH4 looks great as well on the Xbox, Ive never understood people who trade in and then buy a console that they previously owned, just seems like wasting more money, just keep both, even if one console gathers dust for long periods of time.
 
My PS4 is literally waiting for TLoU2 - last game I bought for it was MH:W. I haven't bought a physical XBox game since Destiny 2 (I did buy Overwatch on a digital sale in December) and I am happy to pay for Game Pass and pick up what ever comes out on that. I may pick up Spider-Man but I wasn't too impressed by the recent E3 trailer. There's not really a lot on the horizon on either for me. The annual re-hashes I think I am done with.

Still going to keep both though I don't see the point in selling them.
 
What's peoples thoughts on MS and Razer working together to have keyboard and mouse support for the Xbone by the end of the year?

When it comes to multiplayer apparently it will be left to the devs to whether they separate keyboard/mouse players from controller players by matchmaking based on controller type.

I think it's a terrible idea, what I like about consoles is not having to be sat at a desk etc and I don't want to be forced into using a keyboard/mouse just to be on a level playing field... there's no way matchmaking based on controller type will work.

If this does happen and there is no certain split of gamers I can't see myself buying another Xbone multiplayer shooter. If I want to play with keyboard/mouse I'll play on the pc.

people already buy xim adapters, lag switches, custom controllers etc that give an advantage and they aren't filtered.

That's a very small % of the player base. I think making it official cases problems and I understand the concern. I prefer M&KB for FSP but I'm not changing my console set up to accommodate it.

With the official release you may see love devs provide this option.

Will probably force me one of two ways:

Bin off consoles for MP games

OR

Buy a mouse and keyboard.
 
I think it's an excellent idea, it's one of the reasons I jumped on the X over the PS4. I'll get a Couch Master to go with it. Native KB & Mouse support will surely take away a lot of PC players who can't be bothered trying to keep up with the Hardware costs but want competitive FPS. It's been promised for months though so I won't hold my breath.
 
Ps4 got a official keyboard and mouse, how does that work out?

Ps4 Fortnite supports keyboard and mouse? Don't seems to be creating any problems.

Xbox can allow only keyboard and mouse type games, will be great.
 
There's no question that it's easier to aim with a mouse and keyboard. Keyboards aren't as fun/immersive as pads for movement, though. So I'd prob stick to pads for single player. I'm torn whether this is a good idea or not. I've been a PC fps player since Doom and modems, but never actually found m&k to be better than pads. Easier, sure, and obviously different, but not better. If I felt forced to use a m&k to compete in console fps it would suck.
