XboxEra Community Hangout |OT11| It Goes To 11!

I also think Xbox should focus on delivering great content and games for the rest of the gen, before putting out a new hardware SKU just to make developments harder than they already are.

Remember power advantage narrative is important to a point and for certain, lets say, aficionados.

Switch is technically a potato, but has phenomenal games and is still selling like hotcakes.

For third party, yes. For first party, work around it and it’s all good.

Come to think of it, how is the recent Pokemon game as of now? Have they fixed it?

The media and fanboys always praise the quality of Sony exclusives to the high heavens. Dissing Bethesda by calling them Bugthesda and what not, always priding on super polished games. This ain’t that though.

The second one is not horrible, but the first one is just bad.

Thanks for advertising Xbox (I guess?).

I feel most games have certain bugs at launch . However, it’s clear people amplify Xbox glitches to create narratives

That’s a fact!

But I genuinely did not expect this kind of stuff from Insomniac.

So Konami isn’t selling Metal Gear Solid 1 separately. Now that is stupid. I’m not buying the collection again.

I’ll bet people are baffled that $70 didn’t change anything in bug/glitch department. It’s like every game is now Skyrim at minimum, so you can only go down from there. Ironically, Starfield is among the few that launched pretty well.

I play Nintendo games but not Pokemon. What is happening with the technical side of those games is embarrasing. I think they didnt fix it.

I heard they haven’t and rumor has it they are stalling for Switch successor to fix the damage. Wouldn’t surprise me if that’s true.

I do find it funny no journalist will talk about this because we all know what happened with Starfield when glitches like that happened, but tbh I never encountered the glitches that went viral

I am starting to see it more and more on social media, yet no complaints at all from the media.

Here where the AI refuses to co-operate, it’s really not only some Xbox games as some would like you to believe.

If you have no idea what to spend your reward points on, look no further. But really, very happy to see them come this far.

You guys realize the most important video game reviewer on the internet is probably videogamedunkey and he actively avoids making videos on XGS titles because he got screwed over by Microsoft Studios way back in the day?

He might mention in his best of e3 videos “oh Ori looks good” but he’ll never make a serious review for MS titles. If he did, it would probably cause a more positive change to Xboxs view by a lot of people on the internet. Most game enthusiast on the internet see dunkeys view as the be all end all for quality games.

I’m sure I’m just an out-of-touch oldster, but I’ve never posted a gif that more accurately conveys my reaction…

How did he get screwed over? Genuinely curious, I thought he was just an MS hater.

Never heard of them.

Is he really that big and important? If I had never visited ResetEra years ago I likely would never have heard of him.

For what it’s worth, Griffin Gaming about SM2.

I already thought all those 10s were ridiculous, but when I read this I can’t help but find it even more ridiculous. A 10 truly is only reserved for something very special, something groundbreaking. Doesn’t mean I won’t like the game, but it also sure doesn’t sound worthy of 10s.

I look forward to reading what XboxEra posters say about the game.

I will always find Arkham City as the best because I didn’t just feel like I’m playing a core Batman game; felt like playing an outstanding game. Like Dark Knight the movie, it’s a superhero game in its own league.
