Another Week Xbox Two Podcast Done.
Thank you!!!
Im laughing at an xbox podcast playing a playstation game
@@violettfem5093 It is pretty funny, they were all over RDX the other day.
I lean towards being an Xbox fan, but have always eventually ended up with both consoles, and enjoy playing the games on both consoles. However seeing fanboys get riled up because currently PS is taking some L's is pure gold.
@@TheProtagonistDies lol we're gamers not weird ass fanboys that go muhhh exclusives 🤣 don't worry either I'm sure most PS fanboys will be playing the next skyrim or fallout or doom... The Japanese have awakened a sleeping giant 💣 guess they didn't learn from last time 🤣👋
🙏🙏
I have no idea why but if I leave my house or go to sleep with youtube on accidentally, this is always what I come back to from autoplay, it doesn't even match my typical algorithm other than being "game related" and I don't even care about the xbox lol
lol same
This just happened to me earlier lmao
Same happened to me last night - RUclips must detect sleepers and this video has became part of the algorithm for them!
It literally happened to me again lmao
@@shnackson That's more than coincidence!
Just wanted to thank you 2 for making this podcast on the regular.
I never listen live i always wait for the spotify version to drop and i listen to it every friday as i go get my weekly shopping in from Asda.
You guys make me look forward to friday and the weekend in general just that little bit more, love your thoughts on the gaming industry and your predictions on big announcements in the pipeline.
Anyway boys, keep up the great work love from Scotland.
If Rand al Tomatoe is the protagonist in Jez's game the Baby Carrots Zalker needs to be the antagonist.
Rand al insider 19, the man with the leaks lol
We all know Rand muted himself on purpose because he was talking about a ton of top secret "leak" type shit that he doesn't wanna get quoted by the media about this next week! That was some next level shit Rand, beat em at their own game! They got nothin now, and you clearly said the exact date of Star Field, Forza, and Halo!!
I just started Alien Isolation again due to FPS boost. I still have it on my hd from the disc I own, so now it’s on gamepass it’s great that I could play it without even putting my disc in. Just amazing. Sadly though in the set up menu I chose to turn off the kinect head tracking and the kinect room sound analyser. It made me think about how good kinect could have been. It was potentially great tech but wasn’t really put to good use. Moving your head in the lockers was next gen at the time. RIP kinect.
A real pleasure to listen to you on each podcast, from France
Can't wait to be at E3 and share this moment with all the Xbox fans
these two guys is completely out of mind!
Great show, gentlemen.
The main reason fallout shelter is only popular on mobile i think, is because they don't allow people to transfer their save games from mobile to console.
Also from pc to mobile, found out yesterday
Hey wait, if they give out a million gamer score these days like candy, shouldn't you have 2 million? D:
Just bought a Series X the other day, awesome system.
What is Jez talking about? Why do people like him get so defensive when it comes to someone talking about gamepass profits? Of course Gamepass makes money, it has 20 million subs. There is a difference between REVENUE and PROFIT. There is a difference. He literally contradicts himself one sentence later. Also, Aaron Greenberg has literally admitted gamepss doesn't make a profit. End of discussion.
When did he say this?
Gamepass profitability and sustainability is an important discussion to have since we are all now so interested in the business side of games.
For services like Netflix to determine what shows get renewed and which get canceled, they rely on some internal data metrics. These will inevitably determine which games get published or produced on Gamepass to keep subscribers growing seeing as Gamepass is so cheap. Microsoft is still in the investment phase but once the ball gets rolling it will be important for Gamepass to be profitable for AAA games to continue production as is. Otherwise only indies and the current Activision model of COD will persist
Looks like you're not going to answer so I'll answer for you. It was last summer and Game Pass has added millions of subs since. And he didn't say it didn't make a profit, he said it made very little profit. So yes, he literally admitted GP makes a profit. End of discussion.
@@bargaintuesday812 xbox has the full backing of Microsoft ATM so even if game pass isn't profitable they will just keep on pumping money into it.......
New exclusives for workstation (PC)? Amazing!
Man that silence killed me wondering what was being discussed
im not the type of person that feels jealous of someone until i heard rand said that he slept from 1pm and woke up at around 10pm. I WANT A NAP LIKE THAT. LOL
Nice vibes guys enjoyed the returnal gameplay not gonna lie game looks dope I want this game first when I get a ps5👌👊
Returnal will be the first game I will play when I get my ps5. So hyped!
Also : I don't have a Xbox so can't talk about that but Sony delivered 3 masterpieces in PS4 generation : uncharted 4 , the last of us part 2 and god of war.
I'd like to think Jez's dragon sound effect could be added to the next gears game
First time listening to you guys. I'm a ps player but I bought a series s recently because ps games in Australia are 124 dollars.. loving the xbox so far.. I don't care about where I play my games. It's not about consoles it's about games. Anyway great show have a sub.
Cheers from perth
I would love to see Xbox's internal review of God of War.
The developer quoted about Halo Infinite as great and don't expect an epic masterpiece hasn't played it.
Can you answer please
If you buy a game with xbox subscription deals ( for exemple -50% with gold )and the subscription expired the game will still in your xbox or not?
If you buy the game using subscription deals it's yours whatever happens.
Can you two talk about Orion? What's happening with it? It seemed like incredible streaming tech and I thought it was a bug reason MS bought Bethesda.
Sorry watching late again. Loved Returnal. First roguelike I could stomach
Great looking game. But I would have loved to keep it to zombies and lab monsters then introducing things like lycans n vampires
I think you need some cheese, for all the wine(ing) you do.
Rand definitely indicated that Starfield was coming this year. Lots of backtracking and "clean up" going on. It may or it may not. As long as its ready.
He said there was a good chance it could. Try harder.
I almost pissed myself about Rand not knowing he was on Mute!! 🤣🍅
Can we not have fantasy/dragon/powers style games in other time periods - not just medievalish? Ive been watching Shadow and Bone recently on Netflix and I like how they have the fantasy with the special abilities of some characters against a kind of Victorian era setting we don’t get to see often. Something early modern.
I use to listen to this weekly but with it being so inconsistent with the schedule I had to remove it from my show list. But I've also had to remove people like Dealer because they never put videos out. For someone who make their schedule weekly around the shows they've got to listen to I had to remove the inconsistent ones from the list
😭😭
Big Props to Rand and Jez, I too couldn't careless about the childish console war. It's all about the games and what makes my favorite hobby so awesome. I only own one console which is the Xbox Series X, but these days I never feel I have to trash the competition to somehow validate my purchase enjoy what you enjoy and be happy
this channel is about to close
Rand and Jez are horrible guys.
Xbox doesn't care about people outside the UK and the US, it is true for X360, XOne and the series X/S I don't expect to change.
I'm hoping for a blue dragon remake/sequel
It is bananas how much content Xbox has that XGS and Bethesda could fill up a 3 hour time slot of all stuff that’s coming out in the next 18 months.
Well they better have some games ready this year. Not mid to late 2022 or something.
@@Danny_On_Wheels44 honestly I think you’ll be disappointed. Halo is going to be it. Maybe FH5 if we’re lucky. OH and P2. But everything else is going to be 3P and 2P deals I think.
@@DadUnwinds I am not a big Halo fan, but as their flagship franchise it should be a good game imo.
@@Danny_On_Wheels44 my hope is that it’s markedly different from past entries. My biggest issue with 343i is they’ve never made a 343i Halo game. Always tried to make. Bungee style Halo games with no risk and they’ve been noticeably not as good. Hopefully with all this and the open world and all that they’ve decided to make the Halo game they’ve dreamed of.
@@DadUnwinds Yeah like try something new with Halo, not same old way previous Halo games are.
When fifa will be cloud enabled for mobile
Is RE village worth $60 being ≈ 10 hours?
Worth it so good if you enjoyed 7 you will love 8
Edit: haven't beat it yet but worth it so far... Also can't wait for biomutant
Bright memory infinite is still confirmed for 2021 they put out a trailer with 2021 recently
Project Dragon = Formerly known as Scalebound
Ayyyyy bear down baby!!
I've recently been playing Octopath Traveler, believe me, its not a consolation compared to FF7. Yes FF7 has the graphics, but Octopath gameplay is amazing.
What game is that they’re playing … I got a series x I’ve never seen that game ? It looks good
The game is Returnal.
Don't disturb me!
delete the video!
close the channel!
People dont realize Microsoft has a hold on this model in gaming with gamepass because unlike tv and movies there isnt alot of companies that can even follow them and this model
I'll listen, but what are ya'll talking about for over 3 1/2 hours?
👍🏻👍🏻
1:50:00 if epic did manage to win because of that difference about making a profit on hardware, all apple would need to do is lower the price on all their phones to keep the 30% and then epic is back to square one lol and that would make iphones way more appealing to own
Halo 3 was an epic masterpiece imo
It was mediocre 🤔
@@FlameLOGNET you tripping the first 3 were all great... Halo 4 had a good story and crap multiplayer it was the opposite with 5 hopefully they get it right this time
Personally preferred Halo 4, campaign.
@@ag7367 let me reiterate then. Halo 3s campaign was mediocre, and the multi-player is sterile. Fav campaign was 2 and multi-player is reach BTW
Halo Infinite needs to be like a 9 out of 10. With it being delayed the bar is even higher. They need some exclusives this year not late 2022 or something. Halo is for fans of that franchise not critics IMO.
LOL Rand could not decide on how to phrase his opinion of Returnal... I have never heard him say "Uhhhm" and make weird noises for ten minutes while he tries to spit the words out, stumbling over what feels like every word.... never seen him like that before haha
Dude makes no sense, how do you beat the game twice and have it as your GOTY but not say it’s worth $70.
Because no game is (to me). Value is a matter of perception. I perceive the $70 price point (nearly $100 in Europe and Australia) as ludicrous. I will never buy any game for that price. You may feel differently, and that's fine, but expect to find yourself in the minority.
@@professorsolo6484 I can understand what he is saying, finishing the game twice isn't an indication of how much it is worth. Because then you get into the dangerous game of using "Time spent" as an indicator of how much the game is worth.
I don't want to hate on Returnal, but if Forbidden West comes out in the next 12 months, and it is just as good or better then it's predecessor, can you honestly tell me you would say that Returnal and Horizon are worth the same money?
Or Returnal and God of War?
The game looks good and plays nice, but is also niche, lacks in areas such as story and has had a few launch issues.
Compare it too Resident Evil 8 which is $10USD cheaper. I can see why the question is asked, and where Rands point is coming from.
Agreed
@@brighttundra1255 naw man, if you beat the game twice and have it as your favourite game of the year, that’s money well spent period.
You’re basically saying only AAA games with a big budget can be worth full price which is a very weird way to look at games. This is how games like the Ori get overlooked.
You want difficult...... Any halo game LASO. That's difficult.
💪💪💪
what happened in the middle here guys, no sound etc from Rand, this needs to be addressed or more checks carried out live?
don't feel bad, you're back now, great show haha
I asked jez on twitter whats with the name change and ignorantly ignored
As someone who loves Gears, I'm super excited to see them try a brand new game. As someone who thinks Halo is trash. I hope that 343 gets to try something else as well.
The question I have, is does 343 WANT to do something else?
They were created by a bunch of Devs that wanted to make Halo, I dare say if Infinite wraps up the Halo Universe, and 343 doesn't want to make another Halo, they will move on, but if when Infinite is done and dusted, they wanna make another Halo, I see them pushing to do more Halo.
@@brighttundra1255 I mean that's their prerogative. I'm not playing Halo ever again if I can help it.
@@ReaveIdono I can understand that man, the last two games had some solid faults that really detracted from its enjoyment factor.
I am going to give Infinite a go, I still have fun with Halo multiplayer, but I really want 343 to nail this Campaign, or I too am probably done with Halo.
Jason Shreee-Er!!
i liked resident evil 7 but i did not feel a bit like a resident evil game. if that game is resident evil, everything could be resident evil. i prefer calling it maniac mansion 2017
On the cross play thing: If Epic is paying Sony for it, why is there cross play on MLB? A sony game.
PlayStation was forced to make it multi platform to keep the MLB ip. PlayStation wouldn’t pay themselves for crossplay though.
@@c.i.a.932 That doesn't explain why it has cross play, why not just don't have it because nobody is paying them?
@@sbh1889 MLB could have mandated that as part of maintaining the license as well.
Halo infinite doesn’t have to be the greatest game of all time...but it has to be the greatest halo game of all time. It needs to deliver. Just great isn’t good enough for halo infinite.
Apple phones generally outperform android phones.
In what sales or hardware?
Love you Rand but how can you be a gaming fan without caring about what Nintendo does?
I guess cause Nintendo just doesn't interest me
It was cool somewhat of what he said but it was a bit too extra with the comment
AMEN × A MILLION!! Seriously, I couldn't agree w you guys more. I'm a bruised and tattered vet of the original console war(s), the NES & SNES v Sega and Turbo/PC Engine... I admit, as a 10 year old, I was all about defending Nintendo but, it didn't take that long to grow out of it esp. when life got more interesting.
TL;DR - Despite leftover remnants, I am mostly console agnostic and we should just enjoy & share our collective love of this fantastic hobby and leave the trash outside. Life's too short, esp. w goddammit pandemics and all the other crazy going on in the real world.
Honestly, somewhere, deep down, in an undeveloped, primitive area, there are unresolved feelings about the whole deal between Sony and Nintendo, which, at the time, felt like a betrayal, despite logically knowing that Sony just took a business opportunity that presented itself. But, it never was something that really ever mattered after getting over my old console warrior self.
I really hope Starfield is like Fallout 76. Xbox gamers deserve 18$ blue armor 😂🤣
Start with halo, end with forza horizon five with hellblade 2 as the one last thing then have a one last last thing with a fade to starfield and into bethesda
Microsoft needs to buy square Enix, and make every game exclusive. They should pull every one of their games from Playstation and give Sony a taste of their own medicine.
Hmm... I wonder why returnal looks good. Could it be theat they made it so damn dark on purpose? Everything looks at least decent when you can’t see any of the edges of textures. Honestly, a game that dark would put me to sleep.
To be clear... there are sections that aren’t so dark. But when you don’t have to clear up every space of a game, yeah you can make those sections look great. It’s no better than the first reaper cutscene in the original mass effect. And while one is a cutscene, and the other is gameplay, that graphical fidelity should still stand out this much later.
Gears been solid halo is the game that needs a break lol 343 need a new ip
xbox is killing it this GEN just look at Mass Effect Legendary Edition runs at 120fps on Xbox Series X but 60fps on PS5, PS5 can't handle the heat, already showing it's under powered
EDIT:it was pointed out to me from Stephen Davis that Mass Effect is running in BC mode on the XSX and PS5 and my above comment is misinformed
You can't really use ME as an indication of how powerful either system is. ME runs in backwards compatible mode, it just so happens that Microsoft has done far more work in that aspect compared to Sony.
The games sees the Series X as a more powerful Xbox One X, it can use all of the power but can't use series features like ray tracing. It sees the PS5 as a more powerful PS4 Pro, it can use some of the extra power, but not all of it.
@@ovocwavewalker just read up on that and your right it runs in BC and no ray tracing, will hold off till it gets the free Series X update. THX
👏👏👏👏 @jezcordon
The is niche.. smh of course other people will think it's hard.. people that suck at games will always think that.
Asking for $60 when the game was really shit because of the bugs is the same thing asking for $70.. why can't any logical person think beyond the price.
Guys this podcast is way to long. I tried to hang on but 2:57:36 I am out.
for me halo infinite should be at least a 9/10. demanding a 10/10 is a little much
Yup I agree it has to be great, it is the flagship of the entire console.
I know Jade Raymond, now with Playstation, set a precedent to play as Al-Qaeda (probably how she got hired by Stadia, to not make a game), but when do we get to play as a Crusader ? Kingdom Come: Deliverance crossed the 3 Million sold, threshold, in 2020. Bill Gates (now single) and Rock Star have enough FU (mainstream femia) money to make a game set during the Crusades - where you don’t have to play as an Al-Qaeda assassin.
There’s no returnal on Xbox!! 🤷♂️
It's impossible to truly calculate how much revenue Game Pass is ultimately responsible for because of the secondary impact it has. For example, you can take John Q. Gamer who was undecided between Xbox and Playstation but ultimately had Game Pass be the deciding factor in choosing an Xbox. From that moment forward, every single dollar he spends on games, DLC, and even movies is 100% revenue that Game Pass is responsible for. So counting the subscription dollars only tells part of the story when it comes to the people who bought an Xbox specifically because Game Pass was the convincing argument. (This is also why "The Netflix of games" isn't an accurate comparison). If said John Q. Gamer spends 15 dollars one month for a sub and then 120 dollars on other stuff on the store, Game Pass made 135 dollars off him that month.
(And I say it's impossible to calculate because Microsoft would have to ask every single Xbox user if Game Pass was the deal-maker for them, which isn't feasible.)
No Xbox pod cast goes on with out people talking about game pass. I hope people realise that soon there will be no more Xbox and all Xbox will be is game pass
@Failed Pyromancer lettuce picker. Lol. Sorry that insult is deep. Are you 5
hi
Good show, not great. 3/5
Man I was hyped for Returnal, then I learned it was a roguelike and all interest was instantly killed off. Glad people like it but I personally despise the genre.
Haha, I get mad at losing 20 minutes in Demon Souls and resetting back at bonfire. No freaking way I’m gonna pay $70 for a rogue like. Like you, I’m glad people enjoy it though
Resident evil 6 was great lol I beat every campaign twice . Wish more 3rd person game would use those controls u was so mobile
Microsoft first mistake was to open a ps2 so that they could build the first xbox, they had a fucking awesome platform called P.C but completely went downside with their fucking awful and ugly console with no nice game to play. Apart for the gamepass there's no advantage of buying an xbox . The series X was advertise as the most powerful console ever made with 12 tetra compared to the ps5 with 8 tetra just to see major third party games run better on the PS5. I'm not even an xbox hater but business wise they failed a long time ago
Did not enjoy today’s podcast Rand, discussions were more negative than positive and too many unsure answers with every subject. Will remain subscribed but I think today was not your day, I can tell how upset you feel that the gaming news media has put your name behind some words that are not being said by you.
How borzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
p
Soccer doesnt excist, not to mention football is much older than that plagerized softer version of rugby that is American football. Not only is there no ball in American Football, that misshaped wannabe ball is mostly moved around by being carried hehehehe. There is only one sport that is football, and it aint American Football hehehe.
I just clicked to say who the hell is going to watch a 3+ hour video?
You guys are out of your minds.
Ever heard of selective editing?
Xbox Two is always live. This is simply a VoD uploaded so people can listen, instead of complaining, you could have also simply looked at the pinned comment for timestamps.
RE 5 absolutely was a trash, my friend, it was a TRASH
LOL
When Jez starts giving his bias takes on Apple and Google I check out.
Everytime Rand describes and talks down about fanboys he is literally describing the likes of Timdog, dealer and colt yet he defends and promotes them
BOTW is great but ultimately failed to fulfil many of its promises.
I think the downside is there’s other games that do what BOTW wants to do better than how BOTW does it.
And the things they wanted to do but left out (crafting mechanic) are conspicuous by their absence.
The story is completely meh.
That being said it’s highly ambitious, Nintendo wanted to make the greatest game ever with BOTW and that’s admirable.
Story isn't everything in a game, especially in a sandbox. There's not a single open world game that comes close to BOTW world interactivity, gameplay depth other than Elder Scrolls & Red dead redemption
@@COHOFSohamSengupta how does dragon quest 11 compare?
@@COHOFSohamSengupta god I played RD2 as linear as I could to try and get through the borefest. Don’t get me wrong I was always gonna play it for the visuals and realism but it was so clunky I could have lived with it being a onrails QTE game. Still not quite finished it as it makes me feel sick thinking about how slow it is.
@@-Grifter There are way clunkier games I played with abysmal controls like Witcher 3 , RDR2 was slow especially the horse riding segments in every quest, but the an entire ecosystem that's built inside that game & random encounters are beyond phenomenal
@@T_M_E_8 I don't have a switch though, I played BOTW on cemu emulator
Gosh dude, I'm an Xbox fan but man these types of podcasts are like 75% complaining about a few people, which is just ridiculous. RDX, this one, etc. It's very weird tho
Then why watch?
@@jayevans20 He’s just making a valid criticism fanboy.
@@iSylar18 He asked a valid question too though. There are other podcasts that don't do this. Like Double Barrel Gaming. It's pretty non bias since some of the guys in the Podcast are primarily PS guys.
@@ReaveIdono I also like Gameon Daily because even if it was primarily Xbox guys, it’s more about the news and games than someone complaining and/or addressing fanboys
@@ReaveIdono Randal is way more fair then RDX period.
I think Returnal is a complete ripoff for $70. There's absolutely no reason a game like this should be over $50. Showing Sonys greed and just how tone deaf their fans are
xbox is crap
Nope, if halo infinite was pretty good there would be no such complaints. 343 has no talent,style or essence and you can see that in everything they do. Even the sniper rifles in halo 5 that block half the screen with random crap when you scope are stupid as shit. Everything they do is stupid as shit. That's the problem.
This was so cringy. Playstation game on Xbox podcast. Lame
You lost all credibility Doing a Xbox podcast with a Fucking PS5 Exclusive playing. Overhyped 3rd person combat version reimagine of “Nex Machina”.
L and I’m unsubbing. This is all business to you guys.’
