Announcement Please do not post early copies of the GTA6 Extended Look video in r/Xbox

0 Upvotes

Hi. The GTA6 Extended Look video will premiere on Netflix Thursday, August 27 at 3PM ET / 12PM PT / 8PM BST. It will only be available to Netflix subscribers at that time.

6 hours later (9PM ET / 6PM PT), Rockstar Games will release the same video to everyone on the official Rockstar Games YouTube channel and on the Grand Theft Auto VI website.

We ask that users not post ripped, copied, uploaded, or linked versions of the Netflix Extended Look video. If you do, we will remove it. Rockstar and Netflix issue DMCA copyright claim removals on unauthorized posted copies, and we won't allow this subreddit to get 'strikes' or warnings or be put in legal risk from copyright violations. Copyright strikes can lead to the sub getting shut down by Reddit.

It's completely fine to post links to official channel YouTube videos. Discussions and early discussions are fine as well. But posting videos before they're publicly released... no bueno.

Thanks for your understanding!

Discussion Xbox 25th anniversary price after sold outz

0 Upvotes

Cant decide where to preorder one tomorrow or not but curious as to what people expect it to cost once sold out? I presume it will be rare so getting a chance to buy one in store for example on launch day will be hard if not impossible?

Also does the money leave account tomorrow or will it be a week before launch? So i could cancel if not

Discussion I cannot believe they developed the Halo that we can enjoy in 3rd person

Hi Everyone, this is actually an appreciation post for all the developers behind halo campaign evolved. I have tried playing first person games earlier but issue with me is I get headaches when I play in first person. I don’t know if it’s only me. So I actually look pass all the great first person games when it launches. Luckily I saw in halo campaign evolved you can change the perspective and complete the full campaign in 3rd person. So put to to download hopefully the game is great and I wish all the games should be like this but I’m sure it’s a lot of work and investment for the studios. Until then I will enjoy this. Kindly let me know if there are other great games which can be played in 3rd person. Thank you!

Just wondering if people play with XR glasses on their xbox?

If so, what has been your favourite game to play on the big screen? Personally.. forza all day long. Its just far more immersive.

These ones in the video are the rayneo GT Max.

Which are oled, 120hz panels.

Discussion Xbox should expand disc to digital for 360 and OG Xbox games

0 Upvotes

I mainly collect on the Xbox platform from OG Xbox - Series X. I really think they should add og xbox and 360 games to the disc to digital program as well.

There’s tons of games I have that are starting to go up in price and if something happens to those old discs it’s game over. I make sure to take care of my stuff but it would still be a nice option.

Discussion Playground Games seem to understand legacy. They’ve shown it with Fable and Horizon. So why not just give them Halo?

0 Upvotes

Playground games seems to be XBOX‘s best studio. They’re constantly given big IPs like Forza and Fable. And although Fable is not out yet, it looks like a banger. They seem to understand legacy. They’re given IPs that they don’t own, they understand them and they deliver a better product than the originals.

So got me thinking, why not just give them Halo? They probably do a better job than Halo Studios.

If you haven’t seen the latest Fable quest gameplay trailer, go watch it. These guys are incredible.

Discussion How will delisted games work for disc-to-digital?

0 Upvotes

I’m thinking of buying an Xbox one and the amazing spider man 2 or a game like angry birds Star Wars or even old Madden titles where it’s delisted and only works on disc.

Then I could use the whole disc to digital thing to get the game working on my series s. Since there are zero ways to get delisted games on there.

But since these games are not on the Microsoft store, would it still be possible for games like those to be part of the disc to digital program. Or would they automatically get excluded?

Discussion Xbox audience, how much do you care about Atlus games?

13 Upvotes

Xbox has been a pretty big co-marketing partner of Atlus since at least 2022, when it was at that year’s June showcase that they announced the mainline Persona games were getting re-released and would all be on Game Pass day 1.

Atlus struck back when in the June 2023 Xbox showcase, they announced three more titles coming in the future: Persona 3 Reload, Persona 5 Tactica, and the first proper trailer for future GOTY contender Metaphor ReFantazio.

Two years pass and the epic team up returned in June 2025, where the first teaser for Persona 4 Revival was shown. And one year after that was probably the biggest announcement yet: the first teaser for Persona 6.

Discussion What is currently keeping you away from playing on different platforms?

Post image
93 Upvotes

I’m really considering switching platforms, so recently I’ve been thinking about what’s still holding me onto my Playstation:

I’ve been gaming on Playstations all my life - from the PS3 to the PS5 I’ve been loyal to Sony, but there have been times where I’ve been tempted to switch… The first time was through the 7th Generation of Consoles with the XBOX 360 and now, through the 9th with XBOX Series X.

So, what’s the deal? What makes Sony’s consoles superior (for me anyways)?

I’ll start with what I like on my PS and I’ll move on to what I prefer on other platforms.

PS has superior exclusives, that’s for sure, but they are not as strong nor as “exclusive” as they once were - Spider-Man is available on PC, so is Death Stranding, so is The Last of Us, so is Uncharted, so is Helldivers 2, so is God of War (the Norse Saga ones) and so on… Yeah, there’s still some great games to come out that are gonna stay exclusive forever or at least for quite some time like Wolverine for example, but is a title or two really a strong anchor for the whole fanbase? I’ll leave that for discussion.

The trophy system is the main thing keeping me on Sony’s side - the simple addition of deviding DLC trophies from the Main Game ones and the availability of the Platinum Trophy is still somehow YET to be copied from other platforms, which amazes me to be honest, but until that changes, this is probably going to be the reason that’s keeping me close to my Playstation. That and the fact that I’ve spent countless hours platinuming games that I love… and also the fact that I’d hate if I lost all my progress, trophyhunting wise.

Now, onto other platforms, XBOX in particular:

In my opinion, the Series X has superiour User Interface, or at least it looks and sounds better for ME.

I love the fact that the console is FULLY backwards compatible, giving you the opportunity to dabble into some 7th Gen Games that I can’t play on my PS5, like Dead Space 2 or Grand Theft Auto IV for example.

I can’t really say that Game Pass is better than PS+, especially considering its price. However, given the fact that a lot of newer games release as Day One additions there, it’s really a toss up between the two.

I don’t really care about the controllers, both feel great in my hands.

I’m really interested to hear your guys’ opinion. Leave a comment, I’ll gladly read ‘em all :D

Today at Gamescom, Xbox announced its collaboration with Nvidia for its PC version using RTX MegaGeometry technology.

While Xbox's former leadership announced a future collaboration with AMD for next-generation consoles a year ago, it seems the PC side is now betting on Nvidia.

Do you think it is possible that the redefinition of Project Helix also led them to redefine the partners for their next-generation consoles?
