Trade Ins For Troops

It's time to support our men and woman in the armed forces. Someone thought that it is important to boost morale using nothing other then entertainment, video games to be exact. That's why this Navy troop has set up this program for gamers to send in games to troops who need them. Gaming has probably helped you get through much stress in your life? No better way to show our appreciation then to send those games to troops who probably could use the same relief just as much.

Starfield's new Xbox performance modes are thoughtful and comprehensive

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?

900p in performance mode for SX.... I'd assume a 5pro would at least hit 1080p if not more.

It’s true for sure. Avatar game had online requirement

Avatar only had an online requirement to install the disc version, not to play.

This AC really does have Online Play Required marked on it.

One thing that's messed up about this, is there will be people playing pirated versions of this without that restriction, while the paying customers will suffer. Just like how some games will have lower performance on PC due to DRM, while pirated copies don't.

Anyone that wants to say something like "Who doesn't have internet access in this day and age?" There's plenty reasons people won't always have access, such as living in rural areas with spotty coverage, for example.

Three single-player games in a row they've done this with now. Those f***ers weren't kidding when they said gamers need to be comfortable with not owning their games. As a physical collector, and somebody who enjoys Ubisoft's open worlds, this is a nightmare scenario for me. Absolute scumbag company.
