    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    They posted a $111m loss today, but they're part of the All Access program expansion along with Target, Walmart, and Best Buy. https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2020/09/09/xbox-all-access-expands-to-12-countries-this-holiday/

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    I see it as they've established their store, and returning to Steam expands it's reach further, because you still need Origin to play those games on Steam. They posted record annual profits in March, live services (in-game purchases, subscriptions, advertising) generate the majority of their...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    How would it be getting its butt kicked? If it weren't for Game Pass it would be one of the best deals in gaming on its own and there's no overlap. I get the hate on EA but their games are extremely popular.

    NFL Streaming Thread - 2017/18

    I'm not sure because I largely don't watch it. There's also no offered packages really anywhere for College Football stuff outside of RSNs I think? Anyways, they carry a bunch of RSNs (this is my browser stretched through to another monitor and im too lazy to edit). Not pictured below: Bein...

    NFL Streaming Thread - 2017/18

    Depends on the event/source, sometimes a 60fps option is available. Can also watch many things after the fact, here are all the options for the Super Bowl for example:

    Marvel's Avengers

    Needs a lot of QOL. Big Marvel fan but can only really play it a mission or two at a time. Just not having to press the tactical view button over and over to track down my objective and other players would go a long way for me.

    You already have Game Pass, Microsoft doesn't care if you find the newer hardware compelling or not, they just want you in their ecosystem in whichever form you're most comfortable participating in it. There is value to just seeing people on your friends list playing a game, is a point the...

    Best Sports Game of All Time

    NCAA 14 for me. Play it occasionally still via a PS3 emulator. The coaching carousel and the replay-ability that provides is my favorite feature ever introduced in a sports title

    That's good, because the juxtoposition of the Series S leak/reveal and the below is pretty ugly.

    NFL Streaming Thread - 2017/18

    I find it's typically better than using official ESPN or other Network streams, likely because it's the raw feed from a similar service without the ads and other things going on using the official sites. I think most of the time it's the exact same stream, presumably from another region or...

    The Boys

    Show is great, but somehow Karl Urban comes across to me like a caricature of the season 1 Butcher. Maybe because he's not as much of a focus as last season in these initial episodes.

    Yeah, I watched Penta and some of the other GTA RPers playing it, it was awesome.

    The Vegas Frys is where I got my 1080ti FE, I have no confidence I'll be able to repeat that experience. Place is trash now that they've gone to a consignment model (or at least that was the last excuse I was given for not having any inventory). The bulk of their email offers are now PPE...

    Oh for sure, I'd concede that, but it doesn't invalidate the point. Earnings over time have shown the explosion of digital adoption over the last generation and it's accelerating IMO. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/ea-sony-and-take-two-now-sell-more-console-games-digitally-than-boxed/

    Marvel's Avengers

    l'm here for the 'loot driven number game', not a negative for me. If it stops being fun, I stop playing, and I don't buy any battle passes for new characters. Simple as that. IP goes a long way, I just played Fortnite this week competitively for the first time because of the crazy Marvel...

    Hawkeye will be free, you'd be paying to unlock extra cosmetics. You'd play him and know he'd suck and not spend your 1000.

    New area sure is nice looking. The systems overload is immediate once you get to your covenant area, we'll see how they smooth out those treadmills as it gets closer to launch.
