Wukong Dev: No ‘Black Myth’ Version for Xbox Thanks to Difficulties on Underpowered Series S

Posted on January 4, 2025 by Samuel Rivera

Microsoft has maintained that the Xbox Series S, its most affordable console, offers adequate performance for the most demanding titles of the current generation. However, developers have frequently raised concerns about the console’s lower specifications, particularly its limited RAM, which contrasts with the higher performance capabilities of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. These…

2024 Recap: Xbox Launches its Best Games, Xbox Gets out of the Race Against Sony, Astro GotY, and More!

Posted on December 29, 2024December 29, 2024 by Samuel Rivera

This (2024), has been an interesting year for me. I have dedicated the entire year to hunting down N64 cartridges that are still missing in my collection, all while playing some of the newest games around. My year ends with a Sega Saturn purchase, and a general 1990s vibe. But what was the year in…

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Coming to PS5: Should Xbox Fans Be Concerned About the Future?

Posted on August 28, 2024 by Samuel Rivera

A few years ago, when Microsoft was buying studios left and right, and even got into an epic legal battle with Sony over the Activision (Call of Duty) buyout. Many wondered if the software giant would use its considerable (if not nearly infinite) financial reserves to match, and eventually choke Sony out of the hardware…

Maneater Review

Posted on May 27, 2024May 29, 2024 by Samuel Rivera

These days, I find that true open world western RPGs are a better fit for me than non Soulsborne/Zelda Japanese RPGs. Playing Maneater and its cheap Expansion to the very end within a week is confirmation of the growing chasm between myself and modern JRPGs.  I shouldn’t have enjoyed Maneater as much as I did, but…

Spencer: Microsoft Acquiring Nintendo Would Be a “Career Moment!”

Posted on September 21, 2023 by Samuel Rivera

Xbox Head, Phil Spencer, has been known for being a ‘lovable’ guy, a gamer first, and the man who wants games to be available on all platforms for all of the world to enjoy! Yet, in my experience, people do not get into powerful positions within mega corporations by just being ‘good’ and ‘passing the…

News Round-Up: Baldur’s Gate 3 Challenges Zelda, FFXVI Falls Short in Sales Expectations, and is Xbox Series S Holding Back the Series X?

Posted on August 11, 2023 by Samuel Rivera

Regrettably, I might have underestimated Baldur’s Gate 3’s potential as a GotY contender when I proclaimed a few weeks ago that only Starfield remained – as a yet to be released title – posing a serious challenge to Nintendo’s Masterpiece (The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom). Baldur’s Gate has arrived on PC, and…

Spencer: Losing the Xbox One Gen (To Sony) Was the Worst Generation to Lose

Posted on May 6, 2023May 6, 2023 by Samuel Rivera

Xbox’s history in gaming now spans over two decades. Hard to believe that PlayStation, as a brand, is only about 5 years older. Still, the Xbox didn’t perform badly on its freshman debut, as the original Xbox (24 million units sold) managed to outsell Nintendo’s GameCube (21.7 Million units sold), and had a bunch of…
