Oh wow, this new controller is sweet!


Great news, I missed that!

 

New controller looks slick. Can't wait to see what else they bring.

 

The games are digital but you put in your 360 disc for the security check, it then downloads the game to your hdd on your xbox one, that's what it sounded like to me.

Figured it would be something like that. Either way, great news.

Backwards compatibility really knocked me sideways. I thought if it ever came, it would be a subscription over the air thing. Well pleased.

 

They totally made a dig at Sony with the "it's free" bit, no charging to play last gen games ala PS Now.

Titanfall and Inquistion. Nice

 

During the Fallout bit did anyone see the line that said you'd get Fallout 3 free when buying 4? Or did I just make that up?

No, you didn't imagine it. Microsoft tweeted it out I think.

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
