Oh wait hang on, might be able to talk to friends but here is what is being disabled..

voice and text chat, game invites, party functionality, Looking for Group, custom clubs, and user-generated content sharing (like Activity Feed).

In the UK it's way worse btw, for example, very soon if I don't verify my Xbox account (which was created over 18 years ago) I can't talk to my Xbox friends AT ALL. Other social features will be turned off too. I'm all for protecting kids, but fuck uploading anything. There must be another way?!

Although I agree uploading an id is a terrible idea, this will only lock you out of "adult" channels. Simply don't upload your ID, continue as normal.
If they don't do this unfortunately they will be accused of not protecting children.

Stop killing games. Hand it over to the community if the game "somehow" isn't making the billions in revenue Amazon needs it to make - which was never going to happen.

Super Mario's world 2: Yoshi's island. Getting that big box back in the day was epic!

Everyone knows eclairs are at the bottom of the list, so either way round is wrong ๐Ÿคฃ

That's cool! I still have mine but not setup. I can't justify leaving it setup for just a couple of game.

It's so annoying they released only the GameCube version on switch. I use cemu on steam deck to play this as well as twilight princess. It's perfect!

I like the GameCube version but the wide-screen and resolution bump just makes the game look amazing!

@uncrankdpd.bsky.social I just found your magazine, looks cool! Is there a way to catch up easily? Or a bundle price for old issues? Thanks

@leepetty.bsky.social @timoflegend.bsky.social I just finished Keeper. Wow! This might be the most beautiful game I've ever played. Thank you!
Any kind of behind the scenes stuff for this one?

Nice! Will the physical puzzles be in the game too?

Just got mine. Loving it so far! When is the DF technical review coming? ๐Ÿ˜Ž Honestly though just a list of recommend games would be great too

A take I fully agree with Chris. Although Godus was so bad I had to hide it from my library.

The bug catching net. The possibilities are endless really. You might even be able to carry things in it instead of just catching stuff. This kind of item is pure fantasy but features countless possibilities!

Xbox isn't leaving hardware, Xbox fans are leaving Xbox.

Great to hear!
Although I must disagree about the Arkham city comment. The first game is a super tight masterpiece. Arkham city is better in many aspects but loses the metroidvania familiarity of learning every corridor and tunnel and replaces it with clutter on a much bigger map.

Looking forward to playing this! ๐Ÿฅณ

I honestly don't know how they would approach making a new smash bros game. Would they start from scratch? Would they repackage what they have already with new content? A switch 2 edition seems like the best solution but it would obviously generate far less money for them.

Love the podcast but I'm so sick of Microsoft. My work life is just full of co-pilot being pushed on me, and my gaming life is just full of mergers, studio closures and layoffs. It's boring and depressing.

A collection of magazines? In a special collectors edition? Or archival CDROM?
