Me too, and I don't recall much other competition. Forza Motorsport had promise, but definitely needed another 6mo to cook

That’s mainly because the xbox gaming landscape is a wasteland.

What are you playing Starfield or the other game?

[–] plumbus@feddit.de 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Right now I’m mainly playing Starfield, have started Alan Wake remastered and only quickly tested Forza Motorsport.

Before Starfield came out I played through some of the Game Pass Library: AC Origins, A short Hike, Bramble, Quake II, Lego Starwars, Lego City Undercover, Planet of Lana, Tunic, lots of Witcher 3, A Plague Tale Requiem, High on Life, Starwars Jedi Fallen Order and many more.

So basically a both xbox games (Starfield & Forza) and a bunch of old, multiplat and indie games.

Not really a good reason to get an xbox over a PS5 which has a string of amazing exclusives. Let alone the fact that there is no VR support on xbox (why even bother releasing a racing game without VR in 2023?).

I paid 500€ for a Xbox Series X and three years of Game Pass Ultimate, and as I said twice before:

I‘m quite enjoying it.

Imagine having to play mediocre games for three years.
