    Microsoft changing XBox Live Gold plan

    Yeah, nudging people to pay $1 more for the full Game Pass catalog. Primary difference is they aren't giving you games every month and instead just giving you access to a selection of titles at the Core subscription and then the full Game Pass library at Console / PC / Ultimate tiers.

    Video Game Deals

    Sounds like you misunderstood almost everything you saw. The permissions bit sounds like the standard Android permissions popup but rephrased. Ubisoft+ is a great subscription, but is not required to play anything you don't already own (and not sure it provides any benefits to Quest users...

    Sony to Charge Monthly Fees For Online PlayStation 4 Gaming

    One interesting side effect of tapatalk on this forum being broken is being sent to these old threads. 8 years ago we were talking about the instant game collection which Sony then abandoned (along with their cross-buy and play anywhere-style efforts that never caught on) only to watch...

    Playstation Classic Game Console w/Enhancements

    I don't own one, but last I read you were better off doing all of that to one of the other mini consoles. The nes mini runs the PlayStation ROMs better than the PlayStation mini does, lol. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    Played a few missions last night, couldn't keep my eyes open and after the third it locked up and I lost my progress on that last mission even though it was done. :(

    Amazon changes pre-order game bonuses

    I'm more bummed about ads during Twitch streams, we rarely buy physical media these days.

    So did this get moved too far down the forum and lose what little traffic it had? It's worse than the sports forum in here.

    Valve announces Steam Machines, the Steam Box hardware beta

    RIP. Poorly selling Steam Machines finally removed from Steam store front page IMO a bigger threat to Steam isn't the Windows Store (which turned out to be a mess), but Twitch. Twitch is now giving away games as part of Prime, and there's a lot of synergy there if Amazon decides to start...

    Where are my Satellite Guy's gamers at?

    FYI, Deus Ex is part of the current Humble Monthly, $12 gets you it, Mafia III, God Eater 2 (which comes with the first I think?) and some other games to be announced still. Humble Monthly

    Possible xbox Hard drive issues....is all lost

    Unless you have an atypical setup all of your saves are in the cloud, and your purchases are tied to the account that acquired it. Once all of this is resolved you'll just need to redownload games on drives that were formatted. When you launch some games it may take a moment to sync saves.

    PS4 Owners Thread

    It's more than Gold vs Plus though. It's the entire ecosystem play. Sony is putting their entire mobile and PS3 generation behind them while MS is enhancing and providing ways for people to continue (or experience for the first time) playing many of their most popular games - indefinitely...

    PS4 Owners Thread

    Yeah, the contrast in approaches to their platforms / ecosystems has never been more clear than this week. MS provides graphic options and is One X enhancing back catalog titles while Sony announces the last bits of support for multiple platforms. I wonder how Playstation Now is doing.

    Wow, that's a decent deal then.

    XBOX One Owners Thread

    I own all of those so it's harder for me to test that kind of thing ;) I think you get 20% off anything that's in the Game Pass catalog, that basically brings the Best Buy Gamer program to digital if that is still a thing when these AAA titles hit Game Pass. Not super familiar with it.

    XBOX One Owners Thread

    Yeah, I haven't had a need for Game Pass as much as I liked the idea of it already. If they support Play Anywhere (and ReCore does) then could even see a lot of PC gamers signing up.

    XBOX One Owners Thread

    I have a 4k TV and a powerful gaming PC with 34" gsync ultrawide. I'm investing in the ecosystem, I'm all in for a new powerful console every 4-5 years. If Madden was on PC I could consider dropping consoles. Sony has some titles I'm interested in, will consider their platform again when the...

    So for the One X launch, looks like it's all based around EST, so stores will be able to sell it at 9pm PST on the left coast. Gears 4 was patched yesterday, have it downloaded and ready to go. Need to network transfer Shadows of War over to the external drive on my One S so I'll have that...

    It's really nice, too. Just not playing a lot of console games until Madden in a week or so.

    Where are my Satellite Guy's gamers at?

    Yeah, we got stomped, I was not playing very well either. I'm pretty hit or miss lately. creeping towards level 50.

    Where are my Satellite Guy's gamers at?

    Randomly got matched up with King last night in Rocket League. Second time that's happened in 360 or so hours of play, lol. I hate that neo tokyo normal course, it throws me off a lot without the raised sides.
