Meh. I suspect it will have issues. Im not bothered tbh because im fine with 1080p stream. I like to download 4k vids and watch them later anyway. 4k streams always have issues for me.

I see no reason it won’t. It’s a pre canned video. It’s not actually live.

I really hope Xbox knock it out of the park today, while I hope they don’t blow their load on showing off games that are WAY early in development and I know there are people who won’t changed their minds on getting a Xbox after the showcase but I hope this is a “E3 2018 or XBOX + Bethesda Showcase 2021” moment for Microsoft where they show off a quality showcase that will delight gamers. Hope for the best XboxEra!

Stumbled upon a tweet that got me chuckling. It’s a tweet that gives a warning to PS fans to not to freak out when a third party game is shown on Xbox Showcase because it is likely to come to their platform as well. I won’t share it since it is using a “spoiler” picture that happened three days ago. It is from Push Square site.

What are the chances we get a shadow drop today on Gamepass?

Well duh lol. People freaking out about Xbox’s “hey these games are coming to Xbox too” tweet like it’s not something that happens every year. After today PlayStation will be advertising that some games are coming to PS5 too and that will be totally normal.

Exactly, but the fact there has to be a warning is hilarious. The only part that’s hard to counter is if they arrive in Game Pass. Regardless, why not just enjoy the games. Is it really that hard?

Yes it is that hard lol. Xbox tweeted something that certain people didn’t like so now we all have to have complicated feelings about the unprecedented new phenomenon of multiplatform games being advertised at a first party conference. :smiling_imp:

Guaranteed that after today we will see thinkpieces like “Was it unethical for Microsoft not to disclose in their showcase that Game X is coming to PS5 too?”.

For a surprising amount of people, games come secondary to playing the real game, which is console warring. :smile:

The Day of Days are upon us.

I’ve been going dark for a bit now, but had to pop in here and wish everyone a great showcase viewing!

I have a couple of cultists friends over for the show, fired up the grill and the beer is cold. It will be a great day.

I’m moderately interested in seeing where this all goes. (and silently dreading the day I gotta upgrade my GPU)

Unless the show sucks, in which case it will most likely be a long day for you. :smile:

Nervously eyes the pitchfork mob coming for him for putting that evil out into the world.

Getting pretty hyped for the show now and looking forward to seeing all those juicy new games coming to game pass.
