Bought Doom Eternal and GRID Ultimate Edition from the leftover rewards balance.
Still got ~€20 on my wife's account and €140 on my main account. Need to get rid of it until September 12th.
This week's sale is crap so only one more Deals with Gold sale left....

I'm not even sure what I would buy at full price. Maybe THPS1+2 since that's very unlikely to be part of GamePass. But that's only €45 (and would get me 4000 reward points) so still not enough...

Time to announce the Platinum and From Soft acquisitions!!

On a serious note, i only expect a montage of japanese games on gamepass.

But its good that they're attending. These events are good for making deals with devs.

825k Xbox SeX's produced... damn...
Still 2 months(ish) to go until Launch...

I wonder how many they'll have ready to go.

Worth noting that Series X is pictured in the slide, implying those 825k are Series X units only. If the rumors of Lockhart/Series S are true, they will almost certainly be manufacturing more Series S units than Series X units, since S is is priced for the mainstream market. Microsoft did begin production in mid-May supposedly, and Xbox One S has been very low stock all Summer, which suggests they have most of their production lines focused on Series S and X production now at the cost of drastically reduced Xbox One production. Wouldn't be surprised if they have twice that many Series S units ready now, so 1.6m S and 800k X for 2.4m total. Probably aiming to have 3m total or more ready by launch in November, so that they'll have enough stock to meet demand the whole Holiday season. Afterall, Xbox One had everything going against it and it still sold 3.1m units Holiday 2013. If they have 3m or more ready by launch, I think they can probably get at least 4m out by the end of December. 

But production started May/June so they could only made 825K....So at the end of the year we will have 1.5 million consoles.....

Anyway not sure if already mentioned but that line was an project carbon neutral production to be exactly.  Projects can fail and so all those xbox series x consoles aswell but they have also an normal production line that produces consoles =p.

Personally of all the Yakuza games 2 and 1 are my least favourites. Yakuza 0 is the one I enjoy the most so far. (see my signature) and you see I am playing trough the remasters right now and they look fine and quality of life improvements are certainly not needed.  Kenzan has some things going on that will put shock Western audiences I would not be surprised if some would ask to ban the game if it releases in that state.  Ishin is funny and yeah deserves a localization in the West but boy the fighting feels rubbish.  It is basically all sword fighting but not in a fun way and gets insanely fast repetitive. 

Seems Sega just said yesterday that they still want to bring Ishin to the west, but are looking for the right time to do it, because they don't want to over-saturate the market with too many Yakuza games in too short a time period:

Guessing they will release 7 this year, then the Ishin remaster and maybe Judgment 2 next year.

Man I just want Paradise Lost on Xbox so bad but it will likely never happen.

So Nvidia is using some API architecture used on XSEX as I mentioned.

It's a good thing that MS seems to have built Series X around an idea of making it as easy as possible to develop for from perspective of PC games developer. Hopefully it results in more games in the future.

That’s the idea. I believe the RTX30 series will have the highest rated adoption by far. 2080ti cards are already dropping price, due to optimal price/performance of the new cards.
