Xbox Game Pass is a wonderful service, but if you're not careful it can easily take up all of your gaming time. Here's how to deal with it.
Development of the Final Fantasy IX remake was originally outsourced, and Square Enix will allegedly reveal titles at the Xbox Showcase.
i think a reveal at summer game fest would make a bigger impact.
but we'll see what happens this week
I’ll be watching! I hope it’s worth it.
One of my favorite FF to date. Back to the origins that made the series so great!
This would be a crazy title to launch with Xbox handheld. Steam Deck doesn't support Game Pass downloads so that will be the big selling point if this game could actually be download and play on the go and not cloud streaming.
However its all rumors right now and Ill believe when I see it.
So they tried to outsource FFVII's Remake initially, wern't happy with it and took full control restarting development.
Now they tried to do exactly the same thing...
Square Enix and the way they run a business baffles me completely.
Also why at an Xbox focused event when the franchise, especially IX which released on the PS1 is more PlayStation related.
They have a reestablished relationship with Xbox now. I’m curious if Xbox will have forked money over to put it on Gamepass. I have a feeling… and I hope I’m wrong about this, but I have a feeling this will be a humongous let down.
Crimson,
So, let me get this straight: SE spends millions of dollars to put FF on GP and is happy with the deal.
GP subscribers get the game and are happy with the deal.
PS gamers get the game as they normally would and are happy.
But you, CrimsonWing69, will be let down by this news? wtf bro? why?
Maybe this is a rare case where a square game skips ps, like Octopath Traveller 1. That for some reason arrived on xbox but not ps.
Idk sounds like square is done with exclusives obviously unless it's Nintendo. Yep keep on keeping those dragon quest spinoffs Playstation and Xbox.
Fox,
"Also why at an Xbox focused event when the franchise, especially IX which released on the PS1 is more PlayStation related."
It could be that they would like to attempt to entice Xbox gamers to buy the game, with full knowledge that PS fans of FF will purchase it anyway.
If the rumor is true, it's just a reveal, not exclusive or anything, and they will market for PS as well.
I was super let down by PlayStation showcase so it wont be hard for Xbox top it. However I don't expect XBOX to blow me away. I'll give Xbox credit though the build up hype for the showcase is 100% more than Sony had going into it.
It was a State of Play. They announced it the day before so no time for hype lol. I thought it was fine, 7/10. I'm sure excited for the rest of the showcases tho. SGF and Xboxs
No idea why it would be at the Xbox showcase because their audience just isn't there. No matter how many times they have tried. PS, PC and Nintendo
In 2023 Microsoft made 18 Bil vs Nintendo 12 Bil so I think there is an audience. Microsoft may be the richest company in the world, but Sony did crush at 30 Bil
Tamoor Hussain - "Shadow of the Erdtree is more of the same Elden Ring gameplay you know with new weapons, items, and areas to enjoy. But that is something that no other game has offered and no other developer has delivered. If Shadow of the Erdtree's quality as a whole is consistent with what I played, From Software is on the cusp of reaffirming Elden Ring as one of the greatest open-world games ever made."
Following a wave of community complaints, XDefiant executive producer Mark Rubin has confirmed when players can expect the sniper nerf patch to arrive.
I have Sony's and Xbox's service yet feel no FOMO. Hesr is an idea, buy a fucking game if you like it.
