    I think it could work easily enough since everything is tied to your MS account anyhow including payment info and the expectation at least of updated contact info and address. They could even require pre-registration of the device to prevent scalpers (and theft?), the way you can buy Amazon...

    It seems hit or miss. I don't remember the game because I was just launching them at random for a rewards quest. And some game I hadn't played in weeks had a perfect resume state right where I'd left off. So, yeah, hit or miss hah. The idea is sound, though, so I hope they keep working on it...

    Fuck 'em. I'm not going to start lapping Disney nuts just because they quietly bring Gina back. Until they make a stand against the woke retards they can fuck themselves. And it shouldn't be hard. Nobody expects Disney to suddenly pimp conservative and/or actual American values. Just shut your...

    Forza Horizon 4

    I believe old forza horizon games are not supported, so can't buy new. Wanted to get 2 but was unavailable except through old used disks I wasn't sure would work or patch. Wish they'd do remasters. In my research, the wheels in the $250 range are the lowest I found to seem worth it. Logitech...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Think it's still converting xbox live to ultimate. I think EA play works too. 3 years max and then buy the ultimate $1 deal. Is guides on reddit still I'm sure.

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Doesn't this already happen? I say just make it official and do it well, and help games that can't manage, and pressure games that can. Instead of hurting their own brand by accepting shit.

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Isn't that kind of a bad sign for Sony to basically acknowledge they're getting owned? Doesn't instill confidence. My problem with Game Pass, and I think the next direction they should take, is they put up games for 'free' that are infuriating and make me hate the service. The most obvious...

    2021 NCAA Tournament and basketball funtimes.

    Which is why I said they still would have probably won. They were the better team, and Gonzaga is always over hyped and under sized. I was shocked they made it as far as they did. But, the game sucked unless you're a jog-knob slobbering fan of Baylor. Usually the problem in college basketball...

    2021 NCAA Tournament and basketball funtimes.

    Shocked. I really thought they were going to let the whitest team in the tourney win on a court with Unity painted on the side in the middle of the George Floyd trial, with MLB and the NCAA and every sports league and corporation taking sides on every issue under the sun by making everything a...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Nice. Used to love sports games when younger, but they got too expensive and seemed to get worse every generation. Been playing a lot of NBA2K21 since going on Game Pass and it's an annoying pile of lazy shit, but free is free. Can't wait to see how bad MLB games have gotten! ....waht's wrong...

    Trying to figure out why I was so short on storage. 38 gigs of temp files, including 32GB of previous windows installations and 4GB of windows update cleanup. Or, under temporary files, it'll go ahead and delete stuff in my downloads folder, but gives a warning making me think it isn't...

    Forgot why I came here. Trying to uninstall a game through Xbox app on PC: Just open the app, click to uninstall a game, it doesn't uninstall. Hrm, click "details" tab to see if... doesn't matter, no details pop up. Wait, there's a pending update. No problem, app is easy to use! Just download...

    Yes, in theory that's how it's supposed to work, but it acts weird sometimes with some games. My old One S is set to "home" but some games still acts like there isn't active Game Pass. Killer Instinct won't register as Game Pass being active on other accounts on the One S now, even if I'm...

    Yeah, I earned $300 worth in about a year. That's doing everything including the 10k gamer score events, though. Just searches, clicking shit and daily quizes takes like 15 minutes a day easily still pays for Game Pass. I also am in their sham ambassador program where you can win stuff and get...

    Forza Horizon 4

    Whatdya know, a whole thread. Recently got back into Forza Horizon 4 because I finally set up my old-ass Logitech wheel that I got for Gran Turismo on PS2 and Horizon 4 is one of the few games supported. Whole new experience (even though it looks worse on old PC compared to Series X). Hard to...

    I've been telling people my pronouns are He/Him/He-man for years now. Example: he is having a party, just text him for the address, because he-man parties are fun. And since when is it even a Twitter rule that you can be pressured to put pronouns in your bio but aren't allowed to make a joke or...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    The xbox console companion was through late 2019 when the new Xbox app launched, so it's the loose butthole you've experienced. They've been improving it and PC Game Pass gaming in general, but it all still feels like an unneccesary middle-man. It reminds me of Windows 8 and how all the handy...

    LOL thinking this is only about this chick or show. The new "it's only on the internet" is "what do I care if they cancel -insert lone example-" when the list of things being canceled grows daily. Personally, I have nothing to lose, but I sure have a lot of I told you so's ready when people...

    If there was a Disney policy against social media that was enforced evenly the cowardly "keep your head down point might be valid. But you have other Disney actors, even on the same show, posting more controversial shit. So, the perspective becomes she should keep her head down and shut up as...

    Microsoft has improved their xbox related apps over the last few years, but for them trying to make windows a one-stop-shop they still can't manage to do anything without 3 or 4 different apps. Some settings are in the console companion, despite saying it's been replaced by the xbox app. Xbox...

    My issues with PC Game Pass is the PC windows game interface/app sucks and MS is still in the habit of breaking things with updates. Wish they had a gaming/xbox OS you could opt into or something. Because PC is annoying with windows hiding/restricting game install folders so logitech wheel...

    Kind of. There are organizers of the festival, and as you level up certain types of racing they point you to more events and eventually get a big finale style race. Are also showcase races against like trains and jets. And character progression with outfits and animations, plus car progression...

    Time driven is 59 hours in Horizon 4, but have driven my Audi RS 3 for 74 hours. Does that mean for 15 hours I was sitting in the car not moving as I browsed the forums? Checks out.

    Forza Horizon 4 (and 3 for that matter) is pretty fun and I find I keep going back to it. The racing is actually decent, and the variety is top notch. I'm weird and like to race "regular" cars, though, so being able to drive a classic Bronco or just drive a low end Audi is fun to me. The...

    Needing to patch a game isn't the point. Have always needed to patch games. I'm sure we all have PC games right now we could pop the disk in and patch and play. Even patch downloading from third-party sources. I have patches, workarounds and mods saved on discs so I could install, patch and play...

    On the Xbox status page "close to a resolution" has been updated to "taking longer than anticipated" after what 4 hours now? Something really broke this time.

    Only thing that annoys me about series x on it's side is the power light X looks like a lazy eye. Other than that looks good and more my style aesthetic. The controller felt cheap and the right trigger stuck bad. RMA was slow, but now after a few days finally playing with the replacement...
