@Stallion83 I'd always choose Xbox and Game Pass no matter what. The Series S is way better than the average Twitter console warrior would have you believe. Mine gets plenty of use by the kids.

For $700, would you rather get the powerhouse PlayStation 5 Pro or an Xbox Series S with 3 years of endless games on Game Pass?

@gameranx Regardless of who started it, if Sony is allowed to buy them, it's a huge loss for gamers and anime fans.

@therpgoblin A, one of the main reasons I game mostly on Xbox is because of my long history on it. I'd never want to give up all those old games, saves, and achievements. Plus, Game Pass is just amazing. If you want to own a game you play, buy it a year later for half the price.

Today's post is a personal question I'm asking my friends on X to help me with moving into 2025. As it stands I right now I have 2 Xbox accounts I'm deciding on which to pursue going into next year, help me pick. Option A. [My Old Account Since 2002] - 45K Gamerscore, good memories. - Lots of incomplete games, tested a lot with Game Pass, too. (horrible for my ADHD) - Game Pass Ultimate Account (usually) - Massive backlog here, ($17.00 a month) ($200 ish a year) Option B. - New Account, Game Pass Core ($60.00 a Year) - Account focuses more on purchasing both physical and digital games rather than game pass, which is used more for online access and discounts. - No more than 2 titles at a time until their main campaign is beaten and credits roll (not 100% just beat) I have a bigger account vs a new account, where one is cheaper, and I will own the games + easier on ADHD. However, the first has tons and tons of games I've finished and cross play with my PC's and cloud gaming + I can just shut off achievements and keep playing everything under the sun. Which to enter 2025 with? I need to focus on one more so the other. Have a fantastic morning!!

@tomwarren I fail to see how it benefits any consumers. Where is the CMA when you actually need them?

Reuters reports that Sony is poised to purchase FromSoftware’s parent company. Buying up Kadokawa would certainly give Sony even more control over anime and manga distribution reuters.com/markets/deals/…

@Boxenberger Maybe you're better off finishing Dragon Age. Sounds like Stalker is a buggy mess!

The epicness of Dragon Age Veilguard is just so so addictive. I so enjoy that game... However, I will start Stalker 2 this evening or tomorrow... So excited for that game too

@JezCorden Fortunately, I'm still neck deep in Dragon Age and haven't even touched this year's CoD. So I could wait a while to get to it!

I love STALKER 2, but it has a monster amount of bugs and glitches. I'd recommend waiting for a few patches before diving in. #STALKER2 #xbox

@Colteastwood I don't really care what gender the protagonist is. But the combat sounds great. Looking forward to it.

@WindowsCentral I'm this old!

Which version of #Windows was your first?

@JezCorden Absolutely not. Elden Ring got its flowers last year. Let some other game shine!

Should DLC like Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree be eligible for GOTY at The Game Awards?

@PaulTassi @Forbes This offers no benefit for Playstation players (they already get all their games) and potentially takes games away from Xbox and PC players. I'm not sure how this could be good for gaming.

@xboxuk @XboxGamePassUK I'm really looking forward to it! It gives me "Metro and Fallout had a radioactive baby" vibes!

@Fallout @falloutonprime Honestly, the Game Awards should be honored to have you!

What an honor! #TheGameAwards have nominated @falloutonprime for Best Adaptation! Cast your vote! beth.games/3Z9V0O2

@VGTGamingNews None! And there's only 1 I definitely will play: Balatro. Metaphor is on my "maybe someday" list.

How many of the GOTY nominated titles have you personally played ? • Astro Bot • Balatro • Black Myth: Wukong • Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree • Final Fantasy VII Rebirth • Metaphor: ReFantazio

@SteamDeckGaming You couldn't do worse than the actual game awards show!

Should we create our own Steam Deck Game Awards?

@TheBlackViking3 It's not a hot take. It's the only legitimate view. Elden Ring had it's flowers last year, time to let another game shine.

🔥HOT TAKE INCOMING🔥 GOTY should be reserved for new IPs and sequels. Remakes, Remasters, and DLC should have their own category. Let’s celebrate creativity and originality. Not nostalgia.

@HoegLaw I'd like a legitimate awards show. Make it about the games and not about trailers.

All I can continue to say is that you don’t have to give #TheGameAwards any elevated importance. You are your own best judge.

@vicious696 Personally I think we need a better Game Awards show. It's just become Winter E3, and it's not at all about the games that win. It's about showing trailers and lining Keighlys pockets.

My hot take on The Game Awards nominees: The show is an excuse for all of us to get together in celebration of gaming so who wins in what category doesn't matter because only you get to decide what your favorite games should be #TheGameAwards

@PureDeadGaming Disagree. The game being remastered or getting the DLC should have received its accolades when it originally came out. There are dozens of truly new great games that deserve recognition. Have a separate category for DLC and remasters.

It has been confirmed that remasters and DLC will be eligible for GOTY at The Game Awards. Do you agree with this?

@Wario64 I find that to be an odd choice. How many people would pick Battle Net over Steam? Assuming the Game Pass version is "windows".

Avowed is releasing on Battle Net along with Xbox Series/Windows/Steam/Game Pass buff.ly/3O8oRQF

@AnaAnsan3 I really don't get him. He's right, of course, but where is that desire to be cut throat any other time? It's usually all Kumbaya and unicorns.

The genius leader Phil Spencer "indirectly" humiliates #PlayStation5Pro and hints to the fact it is a scam “We are thinking about hardware that can create unique value for our players or creators on our platform. We don’t need to develop additional hardware (mid-gen console) for our own benefit. Does a new device really give you a unique on-screen experience in some way? [It] feels less like when you went from the original #Xbox to 360" He's basically saying #PlayStation5Pro is a scam, expensive, and adds no unique value to the screen. He's 100% right. #Xbox is reading the gaming industry perfectly and understand the gamers need. That's why it's winning. #XboxGamePass
