Braking News

  • Bethesda officially joins the Xbox family and to celebrate there was a video roundtable. During the roundtable, when talking exclusivity, Phil Spencer had this to say, quote, “I'm going to try to be as clear as I can. So, obviously I can't sit here and say that every Bethesda game is exclusive. We know that's not true. There are contractual obligations that we're going to see through as we always do in every one of these instances. We have games that exist on other platforms and we're going to support those games on the platforms they're on. But if you're an Xbox customer the thing I want you to know now is this about delivering great exclusive games for you that ship on platforms where Game Pass exists. That's our goal, that's why we're doing this, that's the root of this partnership we're building."

  • Tony Baker | Q4P - @tonybaker87 - With gamepass just exploding with content these days how does the @thexboxdrive crew decide what to play? I need strategies, I need advice! Soooo many games BaAaAawwwwww!

The Carpool

  • Seumas MacIsaac @FamousSeumas - So what games would you like to get an FPS boost.

Sean:Forza Horizon 3, Fallout New Vegas

  • Brent (Discord) - Would you rather the Bethesda team that works on Fallout did Fallout 5, or worked on a new Shooter style RPG IP?
  • JoeySplats @JoeySplats - A lot of news this week is about older games coming to game pass etc and I’ve been playing a few older games and it’s got me thinking do people underrate backwards compatibility?
  • Gary Gray @ItsOnlyGary - To say that games like undertale and octopath trailer are hitting game pass this week, do you guys think that game being on other consoles first for over a year really matters when they are on gamepass later? Does it damage the hype too much?
  • Blaze Knight @BlazeKnight0923 - With all the game pass/xbox hype of late, do you think the Xbox brand can realistically dethrone Nintendo/Sony in profits in the gaming market this console generation, including PC and cloud gaming platforms and ultimately shake the xbox stigma? Why or why not?
