In the days of ever-increasing prices, one would think gamers would appreciate the bang-for-the-buck Xbox Game Pass provides.
Especially because they're so critical over Nintendo's Switch 2 pricing.
But, the reality (here especially) is that so many gamers are hypocrites driven by a PlayStation-first mentality. It's sad but is perfectly reflected in the downvotes here
Series S COD player wanting to play literally anything else without having to uninstall that monstrosity
Exactly this. It's a win for gamers, especially those who put in the investment to have superior experiences
The game has a player count in rankings.
"The complicit folk like this comment above are what ruin the hobby.... Apologists claiming it's not the corporations fault, it's your fault..."
If you want to bury your head then that's your choice but I think gamers also need to be held accountable for the environment they've curated.
Like, I certainly didn't teach Sony any pro-consumer lessons by buying the $200-$250+ collector's editions of TLOU Part 2, Ghost of Tsush...
"It's greed"
Oh. Please do tell us how. What components are getting cheaper?
"They'll further push ppl to PC."
Oh. Ok so Nvidia and their pricing is not greedy, then?
Question tho - what about the matching Printer? Bring back Gameboy Camera + Printer and reboot Mario Paint with it all too
oh yeah great clarification and misleading as well - PS4 owners who bought the game day one as a $60 title had to spend $30 to get the PS5 upgrade because Sony only offered the "upgrade" as the Director's Cut
New players, yeah they got the PS5 version for $70, but PS4 players, nope, it was $90
"That physical versions of Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games will include the original Nintendo Switch game and its upgrade pack all on the same game card (i.e. they are exclusively Nintendo Switch 2 game cards, with no download code)"
When the text in the parantheses contradicts the text it's clarifying... Nintendo do Nintendo.
Original Nintendo Switch game is included but it's an exclusively Switch 2 game card because it includes an upgr...
It's not. It's $60 (base game) + $20 (DLC) + Whatever Upgrade Will Cost.
Not really different than Ghost of Tsushima + Iki Island + PS5 Upgrade
All I'll say is you should not speak against that which you have no knowledge of or experience in.
And I'll tell you that once you're an adult, with a big boy job, you're expected to get things done, and you should work smarter, not harder. If there is a tool out there that can make a 3 hour job a 3 minute job, you use that tool. That makes you competitive, that makes you more productive. It keeps you relevant in an evolving industry.
LOL, so wrong again! I refuse to use MS Copilot in any meaningful regard still. Gemini provides the most detailed results (with context as well) and GPT I feel has started to lag behind it.
Copilot has routinely broken after a few queries for me and the UI Microsoft built is embarrassingly underfeatured. Again, you speak with ignorance over something that you do not understand.
Not using and crying fowl about AI in 2025 is like someone in 2005 saying that using Intellisense and code completion in Visual Studio is lazy and inept.
You know nothing, Abriael, and you speak out of ignorance rather than experience.
"you're literally stealing other people's work"
Ever hear of "open source"? Probably not, because with that statement you clearly know absolutely nothing.
"... are those too lazy or too inept to do the job themselves"
Cool, yeah, you definitely know what you're talking about.
This isn't two years ago when it was new. I've been a software developer for 13 years and the code Gemini and GPT writes is actually usable, when you know how to query in the right context.
And why would I learn it? Oh yeah, because heads of companies and new opportunities in the future will 100...
XCOM style, or possibly a Rainbow Six take on the gameplay style of the fun Mario + Rabbids titles
Yeah, next I'm excited to see how the 120fps mode holds up and how they do it.
"Nintendo has branded and marketed itself as the family friendly gaming platform...
It’s corporate greed, it’s Corporate Greed, it’s CORPORATE GREED"
Don't forget to cross your arms and shout "hmmph!" at the top of your lungs as you repeat corporate greed another three times.
Have you ever heard of Disney?
An even bigger problem filling those jobs that won't exist because they'll be automated factories
Add even more to that - gamers that take advantage of MS Rewards + Bing can rake in enough points to "buy" Game Pass Ultimate with only 12k MS Rewards Points.
I haven't paid for GPU in over a year and my membership goes to September currently. I redeemed a month just three weeks ago and am over halfway to the next redemption
Sony only supports VRR through HDMI 2.1 on PS5, but HDMI 2.0 (supporting 1440p120hz) on PS5 does not support VRR. On Xbox, it does.
If the Switch 2 Dock doesn't enable HDMI 2.1 output, yeah maybe it can get a firmware update down the line, but if VRR is indeed not supported through the dock, Nintendo went the lesser-effort route of Sony instead of the more robust support Xbox has.
Or maybe this is also a limitation of the Switch 2 having built-in G-Sy...
