I honestly don't care if Microsoft make shitloads or nothing as long as they keep making games and systems I like.

Same, I just want Gamepass to get better because it’s by far my main resource to obtain games.

Venom wrote:...There is a wider discussion on what is the future of gaming products; subscription services, or individually sold games or a mixture of the two? It’s something I’ve been researching to make a video. I’ve been looking at Spotify who is market leader in the music streaming market, however it is not making a profit. I have been informed (but not corroborated yet) that it takes less data to stream an hour of music than it does to stream an hour of 4K gaming... Whilst Microsoft, Google and Sony haven’t revealed the financial mechanics of their streaming services, so the reason I highlight Spotify is we can use it to give insights as to whether the Game Pass model is viable and profitable in the long term.


There is indeed a wider discussion to be had. Still.

As a starting point, I look forward to this video, albeit you do admit to basing it on uncorrobated (yet!) facts, no evidence or knowledge and a comparison between gaming and music that doesn't work.

My VHS is primed and I for one am ready to go through the looking glass. Will it be on Netflix?

The use of mate is interesting here. I thought he was coming up with a complaint about your irrelevant reference to Gamepass. You seem more interested in being inflammatory and winding someone up.



By the use of your snobbish tone you're trying to present yourself as an intellectual because you're talking down on language which you wouldn't use. This doesn't make you superior, it just means you're unfamiliar to people who talk differently from you and it makes you come off as a middle class racist.

Photek you phuckwit. I don’t care about your low IQ opinion.

But don't lie and say people are concern trolling just because you disagree with it, just say 'you are wrong.'

I've never heard such praise, except possibly in the pm you sent and then deleted? Pray tell.

Honestly, a good call. We only get this sewage in the Xbox threads, for some bizarre unknown reason that definitely hasn’t been a years-old problem.

Photek the Phukwit starting gooseberry fool all the time. I deliberately don't speak to him and he lies.

I asked the mods to intervene and they did nothing.

Oh, by the way, re deleted pm's, I meant from Venom, not Buffalo.

We've all had a coffee, though, it doesn't matter.

This is genuinely as exciting as lockdown gets!

Can I be uncontroversial and say that February's games with gold won't be very exciting?

Only because all games are being delayed right now, just like all work is too.

Unless there is a way to just go mad and break the copyright on past stuff for 6 months, and be able to play stuff like Vice City etc with the original soundtracks

That Indy game is pretty good tbh.

So, apologies to Venom for claiming he was a troll, I misspoke.
