@KratosMD Yeah, it’s been really quite interesting so far. I am enjoying it but I’ve not played too much yet. The atmosphere’s brilliant though, really gives off that Alien vibe.

@KratosMD It was a hoax. They deliberately try to throw you off by suggesting it, despite it not actually deleting your save. It’s annoying that so many people had a freak out, I personally love it when games interact with players in that way.

@KratosMD No, it never deletes it, they just say they will in order to make deaths feel meaningful. It definitely would have worked had people not kicked up a fuss and ruined it for everyone else.

Dear lord, I know this is a Playstation site but apparently you’re not allowed to say you enjoyed the Xbox event. What’s the point of people telling me I’m wrong and Sony are better? I’m hardly going to be like “Cheers mate, you’ve really shown me the error of my ways. I’ll never stray from Daddy Sony again.” It boggles the mind, I honestly don’t know what they’re trying to accomplish!

@nessisonett Was this in the comments section of one of the articles? Toxicity has got so much worse since lockdown started. The trolls and fanboys seemed to have merged together and formed a super toxic group.

@JohnnyShoulder Yep, its not a big deal but it’s just rather tiring seeing all these notifications from people seemingly offended by the fact I liked what Xbox had to show. Lockdown’s definitely brought a lot of people out the woodwork, they just clog up the articles with nonsense and make it harder to have an actual discussion.

PureXbox have an article about some free games in different regions, possibly due to a glitch. I'll post this here and on NL in case anyone missed it.

https://www.purexbox.com/news/2020/08/various_old_xbox_games_...

Apparently you can just log into the other region stores and remote install them onto your xbox (which I did and can confirm it works) but I don't know how long it'll work for and I can't read Japanese so pls don't blame me if you buy something with Yen!

This Reddit page has links to the games on different stores:

See ya!

I'm hearing that Halo Infinite has been delayed till next year. If true I wonder if the series x will be delayed too?

@BearsEatBeets I don't need much of an excuse to watch one of her videos Trying to think if there is anything they can fudge forward, Forza maybe but iirc all the first party stuff looked years away.

@JohnnyShoulder According to PureXbox, the Series X will still launch in November...

A pessimist is just an optimist with experience!

Why can't life be like gaming? Why can't I restart from an earlier checkpoint??

Feel free to add me but please send a message so I know where you know me from...

@BAMozzy I did go on Pure Xbox, but the news had not been put up there when I looked, whereas it was a bunch of other sites already. That it not a criticism either, just an observation. It still wouldn't be a total surprise if were to be delayed though, especially in the financial climate most countries are and will be in. I personally doubt it will be as it effects a lot more than just a console launching, but a few people have commented that it could still be delayed.

The fact nobody knows exactly when the consoles are launching is crazy imo. I think it’s a way to manufacture hype so that they can get a rush on pre-orders. It’s as if they’re trying to crash sites.

Finally, Flight Simulator 2020 is out! The graphics are insane, I don’t think even next-gen consoles will be able to compete with what this game can produce. The whole world is explorable and while there are about 300 cities that are modelled accurately, many are just recreated from an algorithm, making them look a bit like Legoland. It’s hugely impressive as a package and while I am a person who loves a good mundane game like Euro Truck Simulator, this is beautiful enough for even skeptics to give it a go since it’s on Game Pass PC.

@nessisonett I'm definitely planning to give Game Pass PC a go in a week or so when Tell Me Why comes out. I've been keeping an eye on this game, and I'm thinking I'll probably give it a looksie. I doubt it'll be much more than just a fascinating trip across the world for a few hours for me, but that alone is good enough! Who knows? Maybe I will get hooked to flight simulators afterwards.

@Tjuz It’s great fun trying to find your house. It streams the world through satellite imaging and the effects are pretty crazy. Of course, the areas that are created by the devs look better but the scope of the game is just mad.

Somehow my five year old PC still hits the recommended requirements.

Is the world rendered to scale? Like, would it takes hours to fly from Miami to Tokyo? And do I need some crazy joystick contraption to control it adequately?

Currently Playing: Fields of Mistria (PC); Cookie Clicker (PC); Metaphor: ReFantazio (PC); Overboard! (PC)

Ugh. Men.

@Ralizah I’m using my DS4 but occasionally need to use my keyboard or mouse to do some weird roundabout plane thing. There are so many assists that you can choose from to make it as simple or complicated as you want. I think it’s 100% scale, flying from London to New York seems to take about 6 hours but you can choose a bigger or smaller plane to explore areas you want. I wish you could drop a plane anywhere but as of now, you do have to take off from an airport, of which there are too many to count. I mean, the tiny airfield a few miles from my area is on there and I doubt that’s particularly busy.

@nessisonett Did you see that they replaced Buckingham Palace with a shopping mall? 😂

@JohnnyShoulder Yeah, it’s hilarious but you can buy a London Landmarks DLC. Never change Microsoft 😂
