MS saying they're fixing the controller disconnect issue - https://www.theverge.com/2021/1/5/22215 ... ect-update

And if you’re experiencing controller disconnects on a Windows PC over Bluetooth (rather than an Xbox console), there may already be a fix for that. There’s a Windows Update you can download. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbo ... 9b5?auth=1

At Microsoft, we put all of our products through rigorous quality assurance testing and are committed to providing customers with an unparalleled gaming experience. We are aware some players may be experiencing disconnects with their new Xbox Wireless Controllers and our teams are actively working on a solution to be included in a future update. For the best experience, we encourage customers to update to the latest controller firmware or visiting https://support.xbox.com for assistance.

You can ignore Prey because it’s rubbish, but the rest are just superb.

That’s the Taf-signal lit. Now we wait.

I really didnt like Dishonored 2 or Prey when i tried them. I really wanted to, and i felt like a right scrub, but they just did not click for me at all.

I think I just dont like the vast majortiy of stuff with a 1st person perspective. The exception being games where there is no combat. And Titanfall 2. That was great.

What’s this GamePass you speak of?

Is that Next gen patch for the collection actually a thing? I remember talk about it last year but haven’t seen anything since

The US ESRB have listed it for Series X/S so it's probably coming, either way they all going onto that pass thingy...

A reissue isn’t really necessary for Wolfenstein 2. It already runs at 4K/60! I’ll be trying this out for sure.

Well, actually yes, along with the Arkane Collection the 'Alt History' Collection (all the Wolfenstein games) was also rated for X/S.

That all said, the Bethesda deal will not be concluded until the second half of this year so while I expect a deluge of Bethesda games hitting Gamepass when this happens, it's still 6months away at least and if the Ubisoft rumours are true, then Gamepass will have EA, Ubi and Bethesda along with their own Flight Sim and Halo Infinite etc.. by the end of the year.. Kinda crazy really...
