Forums - Microsoft Discussion - 4 XGS Games in August 2020! Metacritic Predictions

I'm surprised some people still call FS2020 "non-AAA".

This is not only the most beautiful and fascinating game of the year, I also bet a pretty huge development budget was needed. Furthermore it will be supported for years to come and caters to millions of people who never played a flight sim before (me, for example). Game of the year for me, I'll play it on XSX one day.

Nice. MSFS2020 looking pretty sweet. Wouldn't think a flight sim could rank that high.

Sounds awesome from the reviews.



Flight Sim at a 93. Great score, hopefully its available on Xbox in the near future.



Wow, Flight Sim reviewing slightly better than I expected, congrats to Asobo and MS on another high-quality game!



It should be a launch title for Series X. This game is a technical marvel that would be a great showpiece for the hardware. I mean it’s 3 months away, hopefully a quick port isn’t out of the question



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

They have been working on both versions at the same time. In fact, they recently said this: "By the way, the Xbox will help us to optimize the product, so it will also be a benefit for PC. There is nothing PC will lose from the Xbox. It's basically the opposite. We're doing the work to have a better experience on the Xbox family, then we will improve the PC version at the same time."

Congrats for Fligth Sim, very strong score, it will certainly change on the next few days as usual nowadays, we have seem changes in the score over a month after release.



duduspace11 "Well, since we are estimating costs, Pokemon Red/Blue did cost Nintendo about $50m to make back in 1996"

Mr Puggsly: "Hehe, I said good profit. You said big profit. Frankly, not losing money is what I meant by good. Don't get hung up on semantics"

Azzanation: "PS5 wouldn't sold out at launch without scalpers."

Without COVID it probably would launch on console this year. Wouldn’t be surprised to see it on console next year instead.



Wccftech review is great. 10/10, really fishes over the technical prowess of the game.

I’ve seen little in reviews about the landing challenges or the bush flights, those seem to be the most “gamey” part of the game.



Flight sim does not really interest me but I applaud the challenge/accomplishment it represent.
