Just got this email from the Microsoft Store

"A quick note before your Xbox Series X|S ships"




Soon....

Fuck so they aren’t even sending them out until the 10th? Best Buy better not fail me if thats the case.

Not a fan of Ubisoft games. I would probably genuinely prefer if Watch Dogs were a two minute Series X screensaver of puppies on loop.

That said, that looks pretty amazing, and might be one of the best (the best?) looking launch games so far.

But you love BOTW. Wasn't that developed by Ubisoft?

 

[Neko Mimi Mode]

Dealer got a Series X

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Empathy?! Gtfo

 

[Sealord of Braavos]

Hopefully we see some Series X Valhalla gameplay soon.

So much this. It’s really no contest between this and Watch Dogs in terms of desirability for me. Vikings every time. I just hope that XSX Valhalla can match some of the visuals that Watch Dogs Is squeezing out of the Dark Tower of Power.

Sorry, I should have added that I'm in Ireland so I'm not sure about the dates elsewhere

I feel like we can definitely say that if Microsoft worked with Ubi for Watch Dogs, they certainly worked with them for Assassin's Creed.

Did I post this yet? Can't remember

Game looks stunning, proper next gen stuff

Watch Dogs looks incredible

Jason Ronald talks about the "off the shelf", "inferior" and "probably still RDNA1 anyway" RDNA2 in Xbox Series X/S

I‘d say that Jason Ronald and his team are looking like absolute tech wizards heading into this gen.

And stick a tall, pointy hat on Ronald and he is quite literally, the epitome of what we expect a Wizard to look like. Please tell me that a pic exists of him going all Gandalf at some party.

One where I would definitely be happy to have my Ubi PR skepticism proven wrong.

Sweet baby Jesus. I assume those are PC screenshots.

 

[Neko Mimi Mode]

Sweet baby Jesus. I assume those are PC screenshots.

The guy who took them didn't specify, but I assume they are PC.

Nonetheless the XsX version definitely looks very close to ultra on PC anyway

What screens? I CANT SEE THEM!

i have got this on account I have used to order series s, nothing for series x, no money were taken from my account, I am uk based.

 

[Evangelion Unit-01]

I pre-ordered but it will not let me change my payment method from my credit card to my Microsoft point balance...

 

[Rossco EZ]

Call them, they can do it i had to change mine too
you’ll probably have to be quick because they are taking payments now

yeah i quickly spoke to support to make sure that’s where my money went and they confirmed it

I called them right before I purchased gift cards and the told me they could switch it over that day no problem just to call them back after I redeemed the cards. I called them back and they said no way they could changed it. Just got off the phone with them a third time and they said that I could change after my card is charged. It would refund my card and charge my balance at that point. What a mess...

ah that sounds annoying, at least they said you could swap it over on the day. you aren’t the only one that happened to anyway, a lot of people on microsoftrewards reddit couldn’t select reward balance when they pre ordered after redeeming lots of points also i think it’s whoever you get on support, some are helpful and some aren’t.

I’m hoping for the best. If it doesn’t let me switch then I’ll figure something else out. Not a huge deal just a little frustrating.

 

[beanman25]

I was just charged for my Series X order from Microsoft $520.29

 

[Kagey K]

I got billed for my Series X today from MS.


So close now.

 

[Doncabesa]

hopefully Target and Amazon charge me soon, already let the bank know about the huge orders about to come out.

 

[Elpidio Valdés]

Damn all of you getting your XSX confirmation emails, I'm so jealous lol.

I did get an email today from Microsoft with the $10 discount for the Razer Kishi and the 5000 Microsoft points for the Fan Fest disaster. They're also doing a random draw and 1 person is getting a XSX but the chances of winning that are small.

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

These ones

I desperately want some kind of casual-friendly Architect Simulator this gen. Practically life-like shots. Wonder what real-life buildings these are based on.

Should be 1 in 25000, if all 25000 answered 1 question in the trivia. It could be less.

Let me know if you win, I can buy it off you for a modest Neogaf rate lol.

Well I didn’t get an email. Wonder who the lucky S.O.B was.

Nevermind, stupid image won't load defeating the point of the joke

Neither did I. Gotta drop that hard cold cash now.

 

[Nikana]

Ok, now that was low.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

About as low as the number of times Kimberly sucked Jason.
