Once Rare Replay hits, I'm selling this Series X. There's no point of owning their hardware now.
If it was ever to be ported, it will likely be incomplete.

Kameo, Perfect Dark, Perfect Dark Zero, Viva Pinata, Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, Jetpac Refuelled, Banjo Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, and Banjo Kazooie are all the Xbox 360 versions being emulated and 4k enhanced.

Also the licensing agreement Microsoft has for GoldenEye 007 makes it unlikely to be included if Rare Replay was ported to another system.

Age of mythology gets even better. First expansion set in the Chinese pantheon releases during the ps5 launch!

Second expansion coming later this year.

Premium edition only $50! Pre ordered already and out in 22 days! Now that's an announcement.

I cry about Xbox and hate PlayStation.
You have your console on a desk?

huh? what so surprise here?

My old gaming PC hook up with 27 inch monitor while my ps5 pro with another 32 inch monitor, i dont even need to alt tab or switch hdmi, and monitor input lag is way lower as well.
I can use and work on both at the same time with my rotating office chair.

Its a good setup actually, a console with 32 inch monitor is all i need. I can see everything at close distance, large TV is not required and my console games runs at better clarity due to lower resolution compared to an average TV

Wasn't this just a few years ago? What the fuck is happening to Phil spencer? His aging doesn't seem natural at all. In his most recent interviews, he looks 15 years older than this.
if he doesn't have a sickness, he is obviously on ozempic or something.
dude was chubby all his adult life and all that fat in the face actually makes you look younger.
the fools on these needles lose too much, too quick and they all end up looking ghoulish in the end. search for "ozempic face"
 
Age of empires 2 is the highest rated ags of empires game. It is a cult classic such that it was being maintained for over 20 years by fans themselves before definitive edition hit the stores. It still has the highest ccu out of all age of empires game.

Age of mythology is my personaly favourite. It is excellent to say the least.

Both games have campaigns, skermish, cheats, map editors, etc. Complete full packages that you can easily spend 100s of hours into without being even slightly bored.

I'm still pinching myself with this announcement. I kept my old laptop and age of mythology discs just to play the one game I loved on pc. Now in 3 weeks I'll be playing the modern version with new extensions on the way on my ps5.

Now I just need a hogs of war port which I keep that PS1 classic installed on my PS3.
 
Both great games. Seems that in 2025 MS will release more games on PlayStation than Sony.

Of course they are mostly a publisher now. Even EA releases more games on Playstation than Sony. Sony is a platform holder first then a publisher second. That's what allows them to waste a ridiculous amount of money on all these GAAS games and canceled games. Phil wasn't lying when he said Sony uses that 30% to take more games away from Xbox. He understands how much value that 30% for doing nothing holds.

People keep saying things like "I bet Xbox games sell more than PS exclusives.". GT sold 15 million copies. Sony would love I mean absolutely love nothing more than for Forza to sell 20-30 million copies on their system. That's the whole purpose of their platform. Hell the best case scenario for Sony would be if every single game on their store outsold their exclusives.

Because Sony’s platform doesn’t have a problem with people buying games.

So, which is it? Did Xbox games not sell well because of the product or console platform they were exclusive to? Any answer you give that’s not caked in bias leaves Sony looking good.

There’s no gotcha in “Microsoft’s games will sell better than the competition’s games……on the competition’s platform”. The competitor’s platform is the victor in that exchange no matter what you tell yourself.

It's performative interest.
No one who actually cares about playing an RTS would play it on consoles.
I play RTS on PC and console. I prefer PC for them obviously, but let not pretend you can't play them on console.
