xbox game studios does have good games, like ori, hell blade and obsidian games. And forza horizon 4 when you are drunk.

I would rather buy Ori on switch though.

Wasteland 3 was surprisingly good too, so I'm looking forward to seeing what inXile does next.

My incredible goodposting transcends time and space but still it cannot transform the xbone into a good console.

The controllers are all fine, get your hands checked for Crab Hand Syndrome.

You know, I actively avoided Digital Foundry for years because of goons acting lovely about their results, but I see the actual guys themselves seem to be okay. It was just their horrible fandom, like most fandoms.

PC Hotrod Culture as an identity thing could stand to chill out a little bit in general. Just a little. Don't make me start using Tim "The Toolman" Taylor metaphors. 😉

These new consoles all look cool for regular people!

debt is an inherently bad thing sorry you live in a poisoned land where you buy like bread on a credit card or whatever

also going into debt to purchase something whose value will trend downward from the second you buy it is stupid unless its your only option due to income, especially when its a luxury good already. if its your only option thats fine. if you can afford to buy it buy it.

I am European and have lived in various European countries and also not a boomer and credit (not debit ) cards have always been common with people I know, unless they don't have income to get one. As the purchase protections (esp in the uk by law )are always superior to debit cards.

rly? Are we talking just US, or globally? I could've sworn some singing/rhythm games and like a jrpg came out in some really specific localities.

I could be totally off base tho.

I might be confusing it with a story about an online PS2 rpg shutting down and ending support and pissing off a bunch of people in like 2016 or 2017 or something.

the SEGA Master System was massively popular, and remained in production for like decades, in Brazil. Games were being made for the Brazilian Master System in like the 2000s.

Edit: It remains on the market! So does the Genesis! https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/brazil-is-a-video-game-alternate-universe-where-sega-beat-nintendo

all the things you said are bad are good, the rightt answers are using micro usb, a garbage port, and the triggers could do with some work but theyre ok

I love my Switch but I think if Nintendo just put their games on PS4 instead of releasing a console they'd all flop.

You know those games that keep selling for literal years even without the massive price slashing literally every other game gets? Well actually nobody wants to buy them, it's some kind of mind control or something.

State of Decay 3 and Fable will be 3rd person action games of some sort (well, in theory they could change their formula but I doubt it).

Right now you have Gears 5, Sea of Thieves, State of Decay 2, Battletoads, Minecraft Dungeons. Grounded has the option of being 3rd person but I play it in first. Probably more but those are the ones off the top of my head. Some are more action oriented than others.

Battletoads is not a third person action game. It's a belt brawler, isn't it? Minecrsft Dungeons is Diablo, then, again, not quite what they're looking for. I didn't know Grounded had 3rd person camera, all I've seen is fps footage.

I prefer 3rd person in grounded because it helps fighting some of the larger creatures, but the default is first. I listed everything 3rd person and in the action genre (brawlers are, but Battletoads is weird for several other reasons as well - it has a huge host of minigames that change it from what you're doing and the brawler aspects are probably the worst parts of the game).

Minecraft dungeons is an ARPG lite, but ARPG literally stands for Action RPG.

In 2016 they killed the Final Fantasy XI servers for PS2 and Xbox 360. The PC version is still alive as of today, though.

Last commercial PS2 game varies between regions, with the true last game I think being FIFA 14 Legacy Edition (released in Brazil and I think some other regions).

Just Dance was the only game being put out for the Wii on disc for a while, but its crown for "last disc game on Wii" has been usurped by Shakedown Hawaii.
