Finder: We review Microsoft’s new Xbox Wireless Headset, which puts immersive next-gen audio within reach of all Xbox Series X and Series S gamers.
The review embargo for Hellblade 2 appears to lift on the same date as the launch of the game, just an hour before it's available.
That's not a good sign.
Review codes have been sent out as of 8 hours ago (according to Tom Henderson on X) so at least they aren't withholding those... But you'd think with confidence they'd want positive reviews to get buzz going online the weekend before release.
... But if they're expecting mid reviews, yeah sure lift that embargo when most people are asleep.
Digital Foundry : Bethesda's Starfield was generally a well-regarded RPG, but the game's 30fps target on consoles was the subject of some controversy. The game's massive scope arguably justified that 30fps refresh rate, with only high-end PCs capable of hitting 60fps and higher, but now Bethesda has changed course and opened the floodgates on Xbox Series X consoles following significant optimisation work. Players can now independently select performance and visuals modes at arbitrary frame-rates. How exactly do these new combinations fare, and is 60fps really a possibility after it was explicitly ruled out before?
An inside look at Assassin's Creed Shadows, Ubisoft's ambitious open world Japan where your every move is affected by weather, season, and lighting systems.
Have to admit just received mine today good quality very easy to set up better than I was expecting people have to remember this is only 90 pounds so it's not high end . Played cod sound was excellent infact I had to turn the head set down as it was too loud . But the sound was very crisp and you could hear all the foot steps around me and all the other sounds in game very impressive . Have not used the mic but every one was coming in nice an clear thought the headset u can up the bass but I did not feel like I needed to as it was very good anyway . Over all great headset for the money put it this way ive payed more and got headsets that were crap so I'm very happy
I got a pair today and to me these sound better then my arctis 9x, they are louder and lighter
These are sold out everywhere now......smh
Dolby Atmos has always been a paid for app on Xbox. It’s not made by Microsoft. 14.99 to unlock this permanently is a great deal as it works on any headset. But I would recommend a Dolby Atmos sound bar for the best experience with Xbox or 7.1 Atmos setup. Not a headset.
