Also fun question:

Do we not get the Ultimate Edtion of FH5 on launch date as GPU members?

I remember when if you were a GPU member, you got ultimate edition Gears 5 on Friday (then the servers broke) and regular GP members got in on Tuesday.

They still doing that?

Did we? I dont remember this being the case.

@javycane

Like they been all day trying to spin that Game Pass users get Forza day 4 instead of 1. Like what.

May I once again remind you that Xbox had a Good E3, so everything from Flight Sim being 30 FPS, to FH5’s resolution at 60 FPS being unknown is now a scandal that MUST be heard.

Yeah we did.

It would be neat if it was the same for FH5.

[javycane (Javier Ruiz)]

Actually we did cause my first Gears 5 achievement is on 9/6 and the game didnt come out till 9/10.

Yeah I very much remember GPU members getting Gears 5 Ultimate at launch, because we got all the terminator shit.

GPU was actively introduced at the higher price range to allow Day 1 Ultimate Editions.

They haven’t communicated that’s changed recently, so I’m just assuming we still get the Ultimate Editions day 1.

Random example of morons:

Contraband teaser just started, “Xbox Game Studios” “In partnership with Avalanche Studios”

Quote: “OH! This is Deathloop!”

ffs

For the FH5 stuff, I went back to FH4 to check something, and they had the same early access of 4 days for the Ultimate Edition, so it is hilarious seeing some trying to make a big deal out of that with FH5 like it is something new.

So reason to assume then GPU members will get FH5 Ultimate on Friday, then standard GP members get it on Tuesday, same as FH4 and Gears 5.

Beyond a non issue.

That’s what I mean, these people don’t even know things like that. Imposters.

I think yes.

If all the usual suspects can come up with is “Uh… FH5 is actually coming day 4 on Gamepass not day 1! Got’em!”, then you know Xbox had a great show.

Yeah, this is completely dumb

Haha yeah, it truly shook some people. I have to believe at least some of them are just being dishonest and not as ignorant and clueless as they seem.

Couldn’t agree more.

The amount of spin I’ve seen everywhere and the amount of trying to downplay since yesterday is truly something.

Everything from “Sony really wins E3 by not being there” to “Horizon still has the most view on Youtube” to “Flight Sim is only 30FPS on Console” to “Halo doesn’t even have a real date. Is it even coming this year!?”

You can smell the fear.

I love the “Sony really wins E3 by not being there” rhetoric. By that logic I’m the MVP of every sports league 38 years running.

Putting Jordan to shame there. How does it feel?

Not going to lie, it feels pretty good.

Also temper your Nintendo expectations tomorrow maybe…

That’s the most stupid and obviously fake of all those things they say. I would be pissed off if Xbox decided they were going to skip E3 and I know these people are just as disappointed that PlayStation isn’t there. C’mon.
