BYTE ME PODCAST

There are so many games coming to Game Pass over the next two years it makes me wonder why would you even buy games anymore? It’s kinda hyperbolic, but I honestly think you could never buy a game again and be happy. That is just one takeaway from X019, but there was also so much more!

Xbox is going to talk about all sorts of fun stuff at x019, including 12 games from Xbox Game Studios plus big news for Xbox Game Pass, Project xCloud and much more!

Last week at Blizzcon Blizzard announced a bunch of new games, including a new, darker Diablo 4 and an presented an interesting new approach to sequels with Overwatch 2. We also learned that Cliff is incapable of saying Diablo on the first try.

Somehow October is over and it’s time to talk about the games coming out November (or as I like to call them, the video games everyone wants for Christmas). How many of these are going to end up on your wishlist?

Starting on November 19th (in the US) you’ll be able to get an Xbox One X for only $32 a month for 24 months. But the best part is, next year you’ll be able to trade it in for an Xbox Scarlet!

Fallout 76 continues to have some really strange ideas about how to get back on top and charging $100 a month for private servers really doesn’t seem to be in their best interest.

Fortnite broke the internet this weekend, when the map exploded and a black hole appeared in its place for two days. Fortunately, all is well now and Fortnite Chapter 2 is up and running with the introductions of fishing, swimming, boats and healing bazookas.

We all swore that this was old news, but apparently the PS5 is coming out during “Holiday 2020” and will be called the PlayStation 5. It’s got a new fancy controller with haptic feedback, adaptive triggers and a new speaker that Cliff and Dylan hate.

Sony dropped the price of Playstation Now down to a more competitive $9.99 a month. With more than 800 games available and over 300 of those installable, PS Now is a terrific option for Sony gamers that may have balked at the price before.
