Finally an Xbox win. Not read or watched anything yet but seeing Wolfenstein referenced makes me happy. 
 

@mmmark I’ll happily click a link rather than have Twitter be used in any way.

Glad this has scored well. All installed and ready to go.

Dishonored & Hitman? Oh no 😟 might not be for me after all. Still, can try it on GP either way.

I think it has a very light touch with some of that stuff (at least that's the impression I got from Jeff's vid). It's not going to be an intricate clockwork sandbox of emergent gameplay, more like a more tightly reigned in rollercoaster with some mild player expression along the way.

Sounds like the Series X version is actually excellent

 

This is where I would prefer to play it so this is good 

 

1800p

60fps

With ray tracing 

 

Have to wait for the PC breakdown, but makes me highly suspect of those PC requirements

Makes you wish we'd live in an alternate timeline where everything was on idTech instead of UE5. I completely forgot what this was running on so wasn't even expecting 60fps.

 

All the info coming out sounds great, good to see an MS studio having a win for a change. I wish I was more interested in it, but based on the feedback I'll definitely give it a try.

You and me both. I’ve never even seen one of these films and don’t honestly care about the game at all. But since people are positive about it, that makes me interested (Gamepass as well)

 

EDIT: I also very much dislike Machine Games and thought their Wolfenstein games were crap. I liked it in the DF review where he also called out the stealth in those games to be shit and it’s good they taken a different approach in this game

Oh FFS - got all excited about this, after seeing the reviews, and it popping up on Gamepass, and downloading it, and then going to play it right now.....

 

but it's not actually out until Monday 09 Dec so you can't!

[Nag]

That's why reading things is so great...👍😂

I honestly just assumed that new games generally got released on a Friday (but then I don't really buy new games, so maybe they just use to be 10+ yrs ago.....).

[mfnick]

These days you have to pay £100 for the extra rip off edition to play on the Friday.

Basically exactly the same on Xbox. Xbox has better resolution than PS5 but not as good as the Pro 

 

Didn’t realise shadows were so bad on console. 
 

I hate pop-in! It must be destroyed!

Take this with a grain of salt because there's no source mentioned, but that is quite interesting, particularly considering it's not complete on disc on both Xbox and PS5.

Might actually give it a try then, if the port is technically sound.

 

Edit: forget the salt, it's officially confirmed by Bethesda on twitter.
