They must be coming to retailers soon. Haven’t seen many Xbone controllers in the wild lately but it’s the same for Switch and PS4, I assumed it was because of the Trump flu. Maybe they just aren’t sending many because they’re being discontinued.

Aggressive trade-in deals could be a good option where MS offer you $100 (maybe a little more?) credit for your Xbox One S/SAD (console only, You keep your controller) against a $250 Lockhart that doesn't include a controller meaning you have a max of $150 to pay to upgrade and future proof your console and if that bundle contains 3 months of Gamepass it's even more value.

A little question would Microsoft require Sony's permission to allow Dualshock 4 controllers to work on next gen? Would be an interesting move to lower the cost to multi console owners or people wanting to make the jump over Xbox next gen.

Well, it's technically impossible because Xbox consoles don't have Bluetooth

Bluetooth is irrelevant when the DS4 has no battery life and is effectively a wired controller.

You already know that the Series S + X will have no Bluetooth?

Since the XBO S and XBO X controllers already support bluetooth (for connecting to PCs, iOS and Android devices), i would be surprised if they don't include it in the next consoles, too.

Of course they can include Bluetooth in it but why would they? We already know that controllers will use Xbox Wireless just like Xbox One. Adding bluetooth does not makes sense as it only adds costs.

What immense costs! You can get a blue-tooth dongle for PC for a buck... and I'm pretty sure that Microsoft would get much better prices.

Not really feeling Ori right now, idk why.

Started up Nier Automata on Best Box. This game might have the best soundtrack overall, idk. It's pretty top notch. Can't wait to buy cheevos in this game

EA is a really good get honestly. I'd love to be able to play Madden and Mass Effect day one through gamepass.

I wish more games had achievement buying xD

You should give Nier Automata a chance! I suck at most games, and the difficulty is pretty tailored made for most players. Atmosphere and music are top notch too. Your bud Tiago 1000'ed it too

EA Access + Game Pass? Jeff Grubb just RT'd this.

Wonder what this would mean in terms of pricing. Another tier perhaps? If they include it in Ultimate I'm sure it will drive the price up. I cancelled EA Access as I do not play that many of their games and they don't even come day one.
