Great write up from The Verge. Really looking forward to all the tidbits that are going to come out of this trial.

“It is not an exclusivity play at all,” said Ryan. “They’re thinking bigger than that and they have the cash to make moves like this.” Ryan wasn’t concerned about Call of Duty exclusivity because he had spoken to Activision CEO Bobby Kotick, Xbox chief Phil Spencer, and even had reassurances from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella.

It is time :heart_eyes:

The music even 15 minute into the game is very FF!

How is it? At some point may look at getting it.

Probably one of the best games I’ve ever played.

The Eikon fights are insanely good, especially Titan and Ifrit.

The battle system itself is perfect, though found it quite easy in the beginning and while challenge/difficultly definitely picks up, I’ve died less than a handful of times.

The story keeps you gripped, some of the side quests also add value to the game.

10/10 from me.

Not had much in the way of gaming recently but just bought the GTA Trilogy ( remaster of 3, Vice City and San Andreas ) for £30 on Steam.

Looking forward to some nostalgia

Has anyone played Half Life Alyx " Without VR "

I love Half Life games and considering buying this now there is a mod where you do not need a VR headset

Update: Loving it so far, I know it is meant to be played in VR but I cannot justify spending that much money on a headset

Didn’t they just announce yesterday they won? I’m confused

Unsurprising really. Call of Duty on PS will make a lot of money.

Just finished HL Alyx. Excellent game from start to finish

Makes sense to bring their subscriptions under the Game Pass branding more.

I agree about the price increase, especially when the rate that new games are released looks like it will be increasing in the last few months of the year. An extra £24 a year really doesn’t bother me.

It does seem like Microsoft is being very careful about this and clearly doesn’t want to upset the CMA, which they need on side for any future acquisitions. I think after the court stuff yesterday, things are looking mostly positive for Microsoft, just may take some time.

Finally got round to starting the Starfield Direct (although still haven’t finished it). Even the short part I watched has made me incredibly hyped for the game. Love space and sci-fi so this sort of game is perfect for me. The story and exploration elements look so engaging. Already planning which background and traits I want to give my character!

It does look very similar, but not identical, and I like Forza Horizon so don’t really care if there are more games similar to it.

It’s made by Ubisoft so shouldn’t be bad quality or anything.

I know Ubisoft games aren’t for everyone, but they are normally well made and look good.
