Is the Xbox Series X & S's Launch Lineup Enough on Day One? - Episode 68

Join the Bonus Accessory crew every Friday as they dive head first into  all things Xbox, Xbox Game Pass, & PC gaming. Microsoft has confirmed its launch titles releasing beside the Xbox Series X and S next month, and it seems to confirm the fears of many fans, that being: what software is actually driving you to buy into the system day one? This week, we examine if the features of Microsoft’s next gen systems, such as Quick Resume, Smart Delivery, Xbox Game Pass and more are enough to justify the day one purchase, and even with the very bright future ahead for Xbox Games Studios, could the slow trickle of first party content in its first year cause the systems to potentially stumble out of the gate? Also, Microsoft and GameStop have entered into quite the unique situation, with Microsoft sharing revenue from all Xbox digital sales with the long time games retailer. Could this be enough to help GameStop be competitive in the inevitable all digital future? Plus, the new UI for the Xbox ecosystem is dropping within the week on Xbox One consoles and will represent what you will see when you boot up your new Xbox Series console on Day One. Is simplicity the right approach to user interface, after seeing the feature set that Sony is offering in the PlayStation 5’s UI? All of this and much more on the newest episode of the Game Pass Gamecast!
