    Don't hate on people who love physical media. We liked the digital stuff too, but there's just something special about owning and opening a brand new game
  • Little tip with hdr calibration if you press all four trigger buttons on the calibration screen it gives you the numeric values - you want to hit 000 on the black levels and then look up your screens peak brightness for the white levels and input the figures relatively- this saves the generic “ until you can barely see” being so vague and gives you correct levels 👍🏻

  • @jasonfoster5285
    Cool. So if they ever make a game worth the price tag I can download it from work and play it when I get home. Still waiting for that to happen though

  • @shaunriehle2384
    pushing the options button on the home screen on my Xbox series x does nothing, why is that?
  • @mazdajay84
    The Xbox Apps suck because they constantly disconnect from my system and I can't add titles to my library from my game pass account anymore.
  • @Nightscrawler
    Had to spend my money on a new TV or Series X. Guess what I went for? 😜 Stuck at 1080p for now, but it still looks very nice.
  • @Ghost44681
    Well, Microsoft were do I start if it's on xbox series x or pc there's always a screen tearing or ghosting on the screen it's not only me I've spoken to alot of people on YouTube and tiktok out it and its only on Microsoft software. I brought a new TV and thought it was that so I sent it back 3 times even swapped the model still the same Microsoft need to sort the stuff out it's annoying they make all this money and they can't seem to sort things out
