Yeah I heard about Starfield and will def check that out. I just thought it was kinda weird that Sony seems to throw more games on their pass and a lot at a time. Multiple sports titles.

I wouldn't know. Haven't had a PlayStation since PS2. Are all the sports titles on their "pass" at release?

So a few months ago, I joined the XBOX family due to the quest of finding a ps5 around my parts was difficult. I've been a Sony guy forever, but I decided to opt for the XBOX. My question to long time users is: Does the ultimate game pass get any better at points? I do enjoy the day one releases (MLB The Show specifically) The EA Sports deals as well, but it seems the like the time I've had it, they don't really put a ton of good games on there. It seems like Sony's game pass has a ton of titles that I would expect XBOX to put it. I do apologize in advance because I am more of a sports game guy.

I've enjoyed the hell out of both Forza's, Flight Sim was incredible, especially flying over Neyland. I have been wanting to check out State of Decay, making a list. Thank you.

I'm not sure, I think I'm just being picky. I noticed they had NBA 2K and Nascar

I'm pretty sure Xbox does the same with 2k as with Madden. It comes on game pass just months after release. No Nascar though on game pass..but that game is hot garbage. Really hope Iracing makes the next console Nascar game.

Just remembered Need For Speed Unbound is pretty fun and on game pass. If you were a fan of NFSU2, check it out. Similar vibes.

I can't wait for this one. Think I'm gonna go for the early access.

thought about getting the early access, but I believe its a $25 upgrade if you buy it with the game, and its 34 if you get the upgrade separately. that was way too steep for me. $5 a day?

My logic was I'm already getting the game for free through game pass, I get to play 5 days early, and it includes the to-be-later released DLC. And I got 10% off the $35. So for the amount of hours I plan on sinking into to game, I'm happy to pay the $31 and be done with it. But I'm used to sports game and CoD where they're constantly baiting you into spending money so 30 bucks doesn't seem like much to me lol.

hey, if it works for you thats great! I definitely thought about it because that means it launches on Labor Day weekend, which would give more time to play.

Ive been hurt so many times........................I really hope all the talk recently about the game really nailing it is true. We need this game to be great.

honestly they just need to not eff it up. I would be 100% fine with a Skyrim/Fallout4 in space.

I think people need to understand that there will be bugs and that is okay. They will flush them out and get them fixed.

Im actually thinking about purchasing the game and getting rid of GamePass. Im not playing anything else while I have it and I’m going to be playing it for a loooong while. So might as well do that and save some money.

Form Pete Hinds:
• "The game doesn't really start until after the main quest"
• Describes how he got sucked in to the vacuum of space after jumping on to an enemy ship and the pilot taking off
• Modders will be able to create planets
• New Game+ relates directly to the main story so Pete couldn't really talk about it, however he does state it is different from most New Game+ mechanics and it is "rather special"
• Said he felt like Iron Man at one stage due to the diversity of weapon mods being combined with skills
• Museum on New Atlantis explains some lore for the game • There's an enormous amount of creatures, no clue how many
• Says after 150 hours, he isn't even close to 100%'ing the game
• Lots of mod support post-launch
• Mission boards can ask you to build outposts on planets • Plenty of easter eggs • No level cap (he thinks)
• People on PC who have played the game early have said performance is smooth

the last will be the most important factor for me. there will still be issues and bugs, no way to avoid in a big game, but as long as its all playable I don't really care about a texture not loading in or something like that.

The games have always been playable for me. A lot people go way overboard with some of the stuff. Yes, a little tiny bit of the bugs were out there. But they got fixed quite quickly. I don’t like to read into hype, but I’m already hyped for this game so it doesn’t matter lol.

Anyone else playing star field tonight?

At roughly 6pm tonight I'll be on. The VOLS will have my undivided attention tomorrow, but other than that a weekend of SF with football constantly playing in the background sounds pretty dang good to me.

I’m reading in a few different places that the first dozen hours or so are brutal to force yourself to get through. Saying it doesn’t really get decent until after that point and then it’s kind of lackluster. Then others love it all around. Not sure what to think.
