XboxEra Community Hangout |OT5| Season of the Infinite.. Arguments

It’s stupid how in game screenshots of any kind are a bannable offense. They should just automatically blur the image if it’s from an M rated game and then make you do age verification (I know every child just lies on these, but then at least the blame is on parents for not using parental controls)

Also reminds me of playing CoD World at War on PC a long time ago, and finding a server that had a “NO SWEARING” rule… when the announcers in the game swear. lol.

This week in Japan, PS5 sells a grand 1919 units and Xbox sells a massive 558… The scary thing (for PS) about that PS number is that Xbox was well above that number in previous weeks… But anyway, the Switch sold 202k units, so PS and Xbox are just fighting for 1% of the market at this point lol.

This makes way more sense instead of banning community members for their own screenshots that they’re not sharing (might have to look at my privacy settings for now on).

It’s obvious Japan is simply not a priority for Sony at least for the moment.

Should we be concerned for Avalanche Software? /s

Edit: corrected trom Monnolith to Avalanche

They aren’t an XGS so Jezz wouldn’t rant.

Yeah, the combat seems pretty much like the first Elex and that was only a small improvement over what the Risen games had. But there’s still always a lot to like in their games. I doubt I will get it day one, because I have yet to really start with the first one, but it seems PB will just never change and drastically improve. Definitely unfortunate.

I wish we can see numbers of Game Pass users in specific country. It would be interesting stat to see who is benefiting the most outside of USA.

I am highly looking forward to this game. Beautiful pixel-art metroidvania. The devs last game, Touhou Luna Nights, was also a day 1 GP game last year, and I enjoyed it a ton, which is why I’m looking forward to this. I’m not familiar with the source material at all (I was familiar with Touhou at least), but I’m still ready for some good metroidvania action. Day 1 GP would be awesome if true.

Is that from Peppa Pig?

Does anyone know of a way I can refute this? Or am I just better off using a secondary account in a party to talk to friends? Sucks this literally happened the week Halo fully releases. I’d understand maybe a game capture suspension, but Comms? Insane.

try appealing tbh.:triumph: like maybe there must be ways to send MS a report of why the ban was not justified.

Shit sucks all around. :pensive:

Interesting that based on that thumbnail, don’t say it’s coming to Xbox. The game pass launch would be great. Plus, it’s a great way to advertise people like me, since I had no idea until now. The beauty of game pass.

PlayStation has pretty much abandoned Japan, at least temporary, for some time. They know the Western market is far more crucial to their success than Japan, which has heavily gone to Nintendo last gen.

You know, it’s smart of Xbox to have Game Pass to do the lifting as they are working elsewhere for hardware push. PlayStation don’t have a marketing “holder” for Japan unless you count PS4. So going back to what I said earlier, if only we can see data on Game Pass users for each country.

Good job
