Seconded. Been looking since October, can't find crap. It sucks to be a teacher without a job in the middle of the year.
Thirded. Since November, been laid off. It sucks, but on the bright side, had plenty of time to clear out the ole’ backlog. But unemployment is running dry soon.
 
Personally I would not want the current console, even the X, to be able to play the new games. I feel like that would mean the new system was held back to make it possible. It wouldn't really make much business sense to give people a reason NOT to upgrade, it'd be like a less offensively dumb version of "we have a console for you and it's called the Xbox 360".

Aside from that, I'm think that one of the Xbox One models will probably get fazed out quickly when the new generation is here. Power-wise you would think the X would be here to stay, but I imagine the S would probably life on for a bit longer due to it's lower price point and viability as an entertainment box thanks to the 4k Blu-ray player.
Yeah but everything they've hinted has made it seem this is exactly the case. They know there is a market for their dedicated hardware but seem much more interested in having people subscribe to their services like GamePass. I don't think there are going to be games that run exclusively on Xbox 2, for lack of a better name at the moment. They will still run on Xbox One, albeit at a lower spec like PC settings and who knows how well. That's another tangent for their push with the HyperXCloud stuff, maybe your Xbox One S can't really run a game well but if you have access to the internet bandwith you could stream it. We'll see what happens though, Game Developers Conference in less than a month and E3 this year should be very interesting. If it does end up going that way at the very least Digital Foundry is going to be happy because they are going to be able to make loads and loads of comparison videos.

 
I don't get it. What's so funny about Hexic being one of your most played games?
Just that I waited in line overnight for a 360 to have the most powerful new system and I ended up playing a basic puzzler more than any of the flagship or marquee titles during its life is all. Usually those games are good filler and not the focus. I know everyone is different and maybe I shouldn't be poking fun at myself but I have to think that I'm in the minority.

^^Discount one day after release, lol. Yeah, it’ll probably be $30 in a few weeks and $20 in two months max.
Saw someone post it already down to (the equivalent of) $45 in the UK. I'm pretty confident we'll see it for 40 bucks in the next 4 weeks. Battlefield 5 had 20 dollars knocked off in the first week of release, so Anthem shouldn't take much longer than that.

I understood what you meant. There are people who buy systems because they are able to give you access to games with better graphics and more processing power, but often the games that you play the most are the ones that are pretty basic. I have played Spelunky more times than I can count, yet I have an Xbox One with games such as Fallout 4, Far Cry 4, and The Witcher 3 on it that have only been played for less than a hour each.

Well when Tetris 99 came out a couple weeks it ago it has been far and away the most use I've gotten out of my Switch since I picked it up this summer. I also accelerated how quickly I got an xbox 360 after I played Geometry wars.

My wife and I are hooked on Tetris 99. Games instantly filling up day or night really says something too.

The open box NBA 2K19 bundle is the best deal that I could see on the website.

Just that I waited in line overnight for a 360 to have the most powerful new system and I ended up playing a basic puzzler more than any of the flagship or marquee titles during its life is all. Usually those games are good filler and not the focus. I know everyone is different and maybe I shouldn't be poking fun at myself but I have to think that I'm in the minority.
I also spent more time in Hexic on the 360 than any other game. And Tetris 99 does have that same “just one more minute” gameplay to me.

Thanks. I appreciate that.
 
Nope. Complete honesty. I had grown away from video games for a few years other than playing Hexic on MSN Messenger with friends. Saw it was free on Xbox 360 so bought one.
Man, you're awful with money. Now should I play Okami on my Wii, PS2, PS3 or PS4?

 
Yeah but everything they've hinted has made it seem this is exactly the case. They know there is a market for their dedicated hardware but seem much more interested in having people subscribe to their services like GamePass. I don't think there are going to be games that run exclusively on Xbox 2, for lack of a better name at the moment. They will still run on Xbox One, albeit at a lower spec like PC settings and who knows how well. That's another tangent for their push with the HyperXCloud stuff, maybe your Xbox One S can't really run a game well but if you have access to the internet bandwith you could stream it. We'll see what happens though, Game Developers Conference in less than a month and E3 this year should be very interesting. If it does end up going that way at the very least Digital Foundry is going to be happy because they are going to be able to make loads and loads of comparison videos.
I don't buy this theory. All the stuff I've seen make it sound like the plan is to make the new system fully backwards compatible from the start with all Xbox One software able to run natively on the new box. It just doesn't make sense to shackle new games from the new system to the ancient specs of the previous generation. Xbox One X might be a lot more powerful, but it still is an Xbox One at it's core so there will presumably be some fundamental differences.

I do think the HyperCloud stuff could be available on old hardware though since that's part of the Switch rumor, so that might be the middle ground for this situation.

 
Personally I would not want the current console, even the X, to be able to play the new games. I feel like that would mean the new system was held back to make it possible. It wouldn't really make much business sense to give people a reason NOT to upgrade, it'd be like a less offensively dumb version of "we have a console for you and it's called the Xbox 360".

Aside from that, I'm think that one of the Xbox One models will probably get fazed out quickly when the new generation is here. Power-wise you would think the X would be here to stay, but I imagine the S would probably life on for a bit longer due to it's lower price point and viability as an entertainment box thanks to the 4k Blu-ray player.
Worth noting that games developed specifically for the X or better hardware would look significantly better and capable of way more, since everything currently running on the X it's just an ultra polished version of games running on hardware designed in 2012.

Regardless of how they approach it, so long as they maintain compatibility across generations, I will be very happy.

Played the Trials Rising open beta. Literally, a loot crate after EVERY. SINGLE. LEVEL. Distracting and totally ruins the flow of the game as you are going from level to level. I thought FH4 was over the top with the wheelspins. Maybe it slows down as you reach higher levels. But if not, they could probably stand to tone it down a bit.

The Fortnite skin code in that $199 Xbox bundle sells for around $50 by itself on eBay.

Also, if anyone plays Smite MS is messaging codes for a free god. Two of my accounts had a code sent to them.

This is a weird one. I guess it would be an easy way to make back some of the money they expected to make from Fallout 76 that they undoubtedly missed out on.

Knowing Bethesda it is more likely to be a remaster of 3, and they've already seen the results of what 4K can do for it with minimal work. With the hole they're in maybe they would opt to upgrade the more beloved New Vegas instead, but I think best we could hope for there is both at the same time.

I do hope they would do some quality of life stuff, at least copy popular mods. Like at iron sights for Fallout 3 and the Fallout 4 looting system that doesn't pause the world with menus constantly.

I pre ordered the mysterious $60 CE on amazon before it went down. If it’s something good I will keep it if not I will just cancel. I have doubts it would be a remaster as it’s not listed for switch and I can’t imagine them skipping it.
 
I'm crossing my fingers that on the day Trials Rising comes out that they finally make Trials Evolution BC. There's absolutely no reason for it not to be.

This is the one hiccup I noticed. Skyrim was released quite a bit later but you could argue because the Switch was new. Wolfenstein didn't really have that excuse though.

 
They want that double dip money. I'm sure there's some statistics somewhere that show an absurd amount of people buy games a second time when the Switch version comes out.
 
It's probably nothing but currently zero of the biggest battle royale names are streaming anything. I wonder if there is another streamer event. Fortnite season 8 is out in a few days and presumably Epic is going to pull out all the stops...

Maybe, all of those ports were pretty drastically different so I think technical reasons are likely why. Even Skyrim is closer to the original 360 version than the upgraded release. I did re-buy Doom myself, but only because of the $12 Black Friday mistake.
