XBOX Live...on Switch

So Microsoft announced this joint venture of making XBL available on Switch and Mobile
                                                                                                         

   "Xbox Live is about to get MUCH bigger. Xbox Live is expanding from 400m gaming devices and a reach to over 68m active players to over 2bn devices with the release of our new cross-platform XDK. Get a first look at the SDK to enable game developers to connect players between iOS, Android, and Switch in addition to Xbox and any game in the Microsoft Store on Windows PCs."


Currently you can sign in on a couple games..Minecraft being one...but the bigger test will be in the future..Microsoft has bought up a ton of studios, so what does this move mean for the future...and why is Sony still lagging behind in the cross plat department? What does this mean for Nintendo Online? So many questions...can't wait to hear more details.

Not sure how I feel about this but I am definitely curious for more details.

 

Like dying ...... then grab Dark Sous for free today

So I noticed I forgot to announce the first free game of June for Xbox gold.

Dark Souls!! I love this game.  I'm a huge rpg fan and the challenge in this game is fantastic.  You'll die.  Several times.  Get pissed and throw a controller,  but you'll love it. Bonfires are your friend.  There is no well laid out plot. You actually have to figure this out.  It's free. Download it and give it a few weeks. . You'll love it. 

Just make sure to pay attention to the mags and everything NPC say to you.  It all comes together. .. and if you have difficulty,  email me at gamerchickdish@gmail.com and I'll see what I can do for you. 

Gold no longer required for Netflix, Amazon prime

Xbox announced today that Games with Gold is finally coming to Xbox one. That's cool. The real excitement is finally not needing Xbox live to watch Netflix, Prime, Youtube etc. This is a good thing. That starts next month in June.

Currently Dust:an Elysian Tale is the free offering. Its not bad.

Deals with gold should be improved. The discounts should be better. 

I think this was a very smart move for Xbox, as long as they maintain the servers as they always have.

Good move.
