I should continue Ghost of Yōtei. A game I spent $70 on. A game I’ve only put 20 hours into. A very very good game.

But game pass.

Ninja Gaiden 4.
Bounty Star.
Evil West.
Pacific Drive.

But Switch 2.

Hades 2.
Super Mario Galaxy 2…

Of course.

But I already bought the system. And I tried to love my PS5 more but I just don’t. And like I said earlier, jumping ship to PC sounds nice but if I’m patient, I can make a better decision.

For now, I got a good set up that I’m happy to spend time and money on.

Well I figure if I go that route…go that route lol. But I still am not going to bite that kind of bullet yet. I will wait to see what the next Xbox Pc thing is cost/power wise. I don’t want to get lost in the sauce and regret it. Patience may be my best friend here.

New Foo Fighters? In this economy?

Dom Spizzirri @domspizzirri.bsky.social · 21h

I suppose, maybe I’m just very much a person who just doesn’t want to waste my emotion on it, cause tomorrow Xbox could go away, or PS6 gets announced, or Switch 2 games are $90 now, or Steam gets bought by the Saudis.

The money spent is spent. I just want to play and go to sleep.

Dom Spizzirri @domspizzirri.bsky.social · 21h

Exactly, I’d say it’s okay. But I also played it a year ish later after the second big update. It’s decent. But definitely one I wish they stepped in on.

1

Dom Spizzirri @domspizzirri.bsky.social · 21h

But I said this once I’ll say it again, not the entire same situation but Nintendo during the Wii U (which was an even bigger failure than the current Xbox and One) came back hard despite everyday being the same stuff you’re seeing about Xbox now.

I’m wishing to see them make that kind of rebound.

2

Dom Spizzirri @domspizzirri.bsky.social · 21h

I’d love to say you’re wrong. But you’re not lol. I will say though, Xbox is in the news every day cause they won’t shut up and people love a “failure”. Hopefully they’re getting it all out now so when the more exciting stuff does come, it’ll be mostly better news.

Hey hey.

Redfall is not that bad (post 100 updates).

Still a “okay” game by all means though.

That’s where I picked it up again, I thought the exact same thing! And I just kept looking at 33 and I really wanted to properly replay that game again cause I initially played it very incorrectly which made it not fun for me and now I’m really enjoying it a lot more.

Dom Spizzirri @domspizzirri.bsky.social · 21h

I wish I could get into this game again. I tried the initial demo and I was so into it…

And then Expedition 33 came out day one on Game Pass and ruined this game for me. I did go back to it to try to continue but the entire time I just kept thinking, “but Expedition 33 is right there…”

Whenever somebody kept blaming Xbox I kept pointing to Microsoft. And it sucks that a company as awesome as Xbox is getting dragged in the streets cause of their owners. And even their decisions, which I also don’t like, are just ruining the brand and gaming as a whole.

Gosh I hope this works out.

Jason Schreier @jasonschreier.bsky.social · 1d

SCOOP: For the last two years, Microsoft has pushed Xbox to hit profit margins of 30%, an ambitious target that's far higher than the industry average.

This chase for profit has led Xbox to raise prices, cut thousands of jobs, and rethink everything.

Based on the news today, it’s basically old news. It’s explaining why they did the things we already knew. Which again is information we barely already knew, which is Microsoft is the problem.
