I agree. There's no way I'm paying extra just to play the game 5 days early. I'm preloaded and waiting for release.It’s tempting to get the early access but seems a bit daft when it’s one of the best reasons to have Game Pass. Will let the more money than sense crowd iron out the early bugs
I’m preloaded and ready to roll though.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
If you can stretch to it then definitely the Series X.
You pay £35 but also get the first dlc expansion included. In the past these have been pretty big games themselves with tons of content.It’s tempting to get the early access but seems a bit daft when it’s one of the best reasons to have Game Pass.

I'm pretty confident I'd end up buying that anyway so happy to shell out.
What Skyrim DLC was worth £35?
Ah that’s interesting. I’m more tempted now
Well if you gameshare it's 17.50 which would be the case for me. But also the lens on that money is different when you are getting the game 'for free'.
I'm not entirely serious, Skyrim had some great DLC and I'm probably buying the full on version of this on Steam (I can't be fecked with windows store even though I have GP).
I don't often get special editions, unless it's some decent physical pack thing, but I'm hyped enough for this to.
I think the marketing is off. They've already said that only 10% of planets have life, afterall its space and most of space is nothing. The core 4 or 5 cities will have a lot more care and craft and that's what I'm looking forward to. The 10% with generated content will only be good filler if the gunplay is good fun.
The 90% of planets that have very little on them I am hoping you can pretty much ignore unless you are going hardcore on resource collection for some of the advanced ship building stuff.
90% of the game is empty.

Sure it wasn't New Vegas you were playing?
Still can’t believe it’s just 30 fps. Eww.
Will wait till customer reviews are in. The AMD exclusive upscaling is strange to me. AAA game should support both on PC from the start. But, we will see.
I gave up on that one too.Sure it wasn't New Vegas you were playing?
Can’t describe exactly what it is but for some reason I just don’t get any or much enjoyment out of the post apocalyptic environments, enemies and weapons in either of them, just not my bag. *shrugs*
I have tried though.
Saying that, I’ve never really been into the whole Fanstasy side of things. Dragons and goblins and stuff (beyond LOTR) but Oblivion and Skyrim, even though they’re very similarly structured games as fallout, have taken up a bigger portion of my life than almost any other games … go figure. *shrugs again*
Loads of leaks out there including the first 30 minutes of the game.
As has been said, Series X if you have the money.
They've handed out a load of review codes. Some people who they trusted obviously can't be trusted.
Actually seems like the main leak is from someone who just got shipped a physical copy super early?
Looks fecking good though doesn't it
Should I buy an Xbox for this? Probably cheaper than being a new high end gfx card for my pc.
Is there anything else good on Xbox that's not on Switch or Ps5?
Is there anything else good on Xbox that's not on Switch or Ps5?
Not really to both.
Gpu prices have dropped, especially for anything that will better the series X.
Haven't seen it yet myself... I'll cave in soon
Yep!
Any word on whether it's going to be Steam Deck compatible yet?

Spoiler warning obviously
Spoiler warning obviously
Looks average to me.
Looks amazing - but couldn’t watch it all didn’t want too many spoilers.
My rtx 2070 is probably better than an xbox too, but BG runs like a turd on my set up. Might also be my rubbish processor.
I just cant be arsed with configuring and building a pc. I just want to plug something in and play it without hassle and whether that's on 30, 60 or over 9000 fps, who cares.
Steam doesn't list it as SD compatible.
Yeah the processor is likely the key there. But buying a motherboard bundle for less that £400 would still piss over the Xbox and it's plug and play!
But, you know, just buy an Xbox for one game and 30fps
Meh. I'll buy it on PC and see how it runs and we'll go from there.Yeah the processor is likely the key there. But buying a motherboard bundle for less that £400 would still piss over the Xbox and it's plug and play!

I'm not a huge Bethesda fan anyway. Only Bethesda games I even beat are New Vegas and Morrowind.
worked for tears of the kingdom
Mate they can’t even get above 30fps on the Series X.
Class games, although I think they only published NV and it was obsidian who actually developed it (I think).
Did You play oblivion?
Ah you're right, New Vegas is Obsidian. Yeah, I played Oblivion (and Skyrim) as well. Just lost interest midway through. I don't really like extremely open world games.
Same reason the Switch Zelda games don't gel with me. Or Red Dead Redemption.
Elden Ring too.
I think Valve usually declare most new AAA releases compatible with Steam Deck within a day or so of the game releasing. It certainly went that way with Resident Evil 4 earlier this year.
It doesn’t mean much other than the deck can boot the game up and run it. Being at all playable and not insanely buggy is a whole other story. The devs would need to do a lot of work to make it playable I imagine. Some put in the effort, some don’t.
Surely the PC version will run at 60?
