My favorite quote from the Phil Spencer interview:

"Yeah, it's totally up to each studio, and I know some people that, when they've looked at the model around Game Pass, have assumed that Game Pass is actually a better model, if there's more Games-as-a-Service games in the subscription. I actually argue the opposite and believe the opposite. The last thing I want in Game Pass is that there's one game that everybody is playing forever, that's not a gaming content subscription, that's a one-game subscription, that's WoW, right? So for us, having games in the subscription that have a beginning, middle, and end, and then they go on to play the next game, maybe those are single-player narrative-driven games, I just finished Tell Me Why, an amazing game from DontNod, those games can be really strong for us in the subscription. In many ways, they're actually better than one or two games that are soaking up all the engagement in the subscription. I want a long tail of a lot of games that people are playing, and I think the diversity of online multiplayer versus single-player, we have to support the diversity there, and that's my goal. If anything I'd like to see more single-player games from our first-party, just because that over time we've kind of grown organically to be more multiplayer-driven as an organisation."

Remember how so many Game Pass naysayers kept saying; "Xbox only wants gaas games blah blah" Phil just shut that shit down.

Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Over a million players is pretty good, hopefully that gets Microsoft considering a sequel with Dlala again.

Great news for the Toads, hopefully the sequel has more of the first half. Second half can stay dead. Off topic, but wonder if we'll see a Crackdown 4 :(

@Angelus False alarm on Far Cry 6 being 4K/30 fps with ray-tracing, seems it is 4K/60 without raytracing:

Ubisoft only implemented ray-tracing on one of their games that is releasing or being updated for next-gen this financial year, Watch Dogs.

Very good. I do have a bit of a fondness for Far Cry, so this is welcome news.

Drink every time the white guy says "for sure".



Legion better look gorgeous and not drop below 30fps. The previews sold me on the game.

I thought that was just local events? So something coming day before launch?

Sounds great, keep doing multiplayer but double down on SP. Beat the competition at their own game (eventually) 



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
