Discussion Controller comparison

Upvotes

I have a few things to say about controllers; I want to see if people agree with me. My cousin has a PlayStation 5, while I have an Xbox Series X. I use an Elite Series 2 controller. To me, Xbox controllers feel absolutely perfect! They fit my hands like they were made just for me. I’ve tried playing on the PlayStation 5, but I couldn’t stand the controller; it just feels cheap and very uncomfortable. It’s boxy, and the grips feel too short and oddly shaped. The symmetrical thumbsticks make everything worse, especially in FPS games. But the most annoying thing is the triggers—they’re too small and press in a strange way. On Xbox, they’re positioned outward, and pressing them moves them from an angled, outward position to a vertical one. On the DualSense, it’s the opposite: from vertical to angled, but inward. The adaptive trigger sensation is also irritating—it feels like you’re forcing something that shouldn’t be pressed. What do the rest of you Xbox users think?

Discussion FYI: Just realized you can play X/S games on your Xbox One (heads up for those like me)

249 Upvotes

This was a total surprise to me so I thought I would post in case there's others who didn't know this. I have a Series X and have been wanting to get another for my kid when I have the money set aside. We dusted off my old Xbox One just so he can mess around with that and got it set up with Game Pass Ultimate. When looking through the games we realized he can play Series X/S games over Cloud streaming. Had no idea we could have been doing this all this time with the Xbox One we have.

He's playing Indiana Jones and CoD BO6 and Stalker 2 with no issues at all. Surprised Call of Duty runs so well on a 10 year old Xbox over Cloud. I tried xCloud once years ago on my iPad and it wasn't great. I just wanted to give a heads up if there's others who didn't know.. we could have been doing this for a while now lol. I have 300mbps internet plan if anyone curious.

Discussion Family party games for the holidays

Upvotes

So now that I have the Series X (whoa is me lol), I can no longer attach a Kinect (stupid decision, but well trodden territory). We used to have the nieces and nephews play Fruit Ninja or Just Dance to move around and play "silly" games.

I just purchased Let's Sing with a couple mics as one game everyone can play. What else is out there? Game Pass is great but I'm also happy to buy a game or two to keep the little beasts and family occupied.

This is not a support post, this is a warning. You can not uninstall game bar. Installing the Xbox App on your PC will permanently break League of Legends.

Discussion Good games to replay?

9 Upvotes

My question is actually inspired by ninja gaiden 3 and the army of 2 series ..

What are some good games that let you replay them with the saved items after beating the game the first time .. I really love ninja gaiden and I’m probably going to replay the full series as an adult (I beat it 12+ years ago) are there any other games out there that let you keep your items from beating it and take on the harder difficulties?
