Xbox Games with Gold & Deals with Gold: February 2019

I'm going to go off on a side topic of sorts, I really hope that rumored optical discless Xbox model that is coming is based on the X and not the S. 

 

If the price is right and it's the X without a disc I'd buy it.  My current X is with family in Chicago where I visit for around 3 to 4 months out of the year. 

 

My original Xbox One and gaming PC are at my place in Greece where I am the rest of the time.  Going from the X back to the original One is not fun. 😂

 

I guess it will all depend on what goes down at E3. If the next Xbox is coming around fall 2020 I might just go with pc till then and use play anywhere for Xbox games. 

Here are this week’s games and add-on deals on the Xbox Games Store. Discounts are valid now through 11  March 2019. They also have a number of Ubisoft titles on sale, so check out the source link. A few titles to point out

Just started to see rumours on a disc less Xbox launching in May. Seems to be based on the One S specs though

Shame, but it does make business sense for them.   I think it's a good way to get rid of any left over S hardware and make room for the next gen in 2020.

    • I feel like Surface devices were popular about 10 years ago but have fallen off hard. I can't remember the last time someone talked about a new model Surface with excitement. The fact that the headline here is a new wallpaper and not the device is a bit telling.
    • Weirldy, in Texas the age of consent is 17, not 18.
    • DXVK generally performs better on Linux (using Wine/Proton) than on Windows. Because Linux utilizes highly optimized, open-source Vulkan drivers (like RADV/ACO) that were specifically built for AMD Radeon hardware, the translation of Direct3D 9/11 to Vulkan is highly efficient. But if you take the trouble to watch my video, you can see that there are also advantages for Nvidia users. You see that I run Assassin's Creed Odyssey on 4GB RAM and on an i3-3240. What do you think are the minimum system requirements for windows11? For CPU-based rendering, Linux is generally faster than windows11 by about 15% due to lighter background overhead and efficient kernel scheduling.
