So absolutely zero hype from this partner preview event the other day?

I thought it was pretty decent - Subnautica 2 and that new one, Atomic Heart?? from Bloober were the highlights for me.

EDIT: Cronos - The New Dawn it is, not Atomic Heart.

There is a 60fps performance mode but it looses quite a bit of the detail. The 40fps balanced mode with unlocked frame rate is what I’m using it’s a bit juddery but I’m getting used to it now so not as bad.

Do you have VRR display?

Yep. Had my eye on this for a while. Looks and sounds really interesting. I have a soft spot for some of Rebellion's back catalogue, so I am hoping this will be a solid game.

Ooh, I didn't know it was a Rebellion game. That makes it immediately noteworthy. Haven't any idea what it is though!

Next Gen Xbox currently in the works with other hardware with powered by AMD.

And not tied to a single store. Must be something to do with Steam as well.

Blimey. Imagine paying seven years of salaries and whathaveyou all for nothing.

 

[ic1male]

I haven’t paid for years and I’m outraged!

Wonder why Sarah Bond packed her job in. She probably didn't want the aggro when the next Xbox is launched at $1 billion.

But Xbox celebrates its 25th year anniversary this year, he has been in MS his entire life…retire now?

Yeah, if it was me I would certainly want to be part of the 25th anniversary. But maybe he has more pressing personal issues like health or family or something. Either that, or he's got the boot from Nutella.

I just had a thought. Why having these 2 leaders of xbox leave, has it not come across as good news to users? Given the current state of xbox that users on here seem to suggest is mostly negative.

Because supposedly the woman taking over heads the CoreAI business and knows nothing of Xbox. She isn't a gamer. But how the internet knows when she's literally been in the spotlight for 5 minutes, I have no clue.

Hope it doesn't require a DNA sample to boot up.
