  • We recorded this week's episode live, immediately following the conclusion of Xbox's Partner Preview livestream. We reacted to the event as a whole and called out our favorites from the 14 games shown. Plus: we discussed the killer wave of Xbox Game Pass games hitting the service this month, Toys For Bob's new studio independence, WB's head-scratching doubling-down on live-service games, and more!

      @drumjod 4 месяца назад

      Should they have pretended to be excited about a game preview that didn't appeal much to them because it was non-AAA? Surely the next non-AAA games they see will look awesome since they talked about AAA games being unsustainable.
      They were talking about the length of the development cycle and cost companies currently spend on massive AAA games along with the risk of being, 'too big to fail' according to the leadership and profit holders. That has nothing to do with how exciting other non-AAA game previews look to them.
      The folks on this show are just explaining their genuine opinions. Sure, they say some pretty bold words sometimes, but that's part of why they're members here on this podcast. It's enjoyable listening to their perspective and that's all it is.

    He mentioned not seeing gears 6 ..... this is a partner showcase gears would be 1st party.
    Stalker trilogy take was a wierd one cause he said its running in some sort of backwards compatability mode, yet this was never on xbox before.

      Roblox is huge for Xbox, and he mentioned not every game appeals to them specifically but would others. He went on to say that the kind of people who would watch this partner show wouldn't be the type to play that Roblox game, so it doesn't fit there.
      The Stalker trailer itself says it's running via backwards compatibility. Why is his take weird when it's literally spelled out?
