If it connects to the internet, you can change the DNS to whatever you want it to be. If Tim over at Apple had his way I’m sure he’d force his ‘i’ devices to use a “Secure Apple DNS Pro™️” server.
I hadn’t even turned on my Xbox One in almost a year until I helped my brother set one up for his game room this past week.
Every time you go to play a game, it brings up an entire pop-up that looks like the store page for whatever you’re trying to play, then you press “play.” Like, it was entirely unnecessary adding an extra popup screen asking if yes, that’s the game I want to play.
I did too. As much as I hate MS, Xbox live is really our only way to play with our friends (who live all over the world because my husband is a night owl). I got Ultimate for giggles and it turned out my husband games so much it was a good deal. It’s definitely not at the new price. I personally have only used the console to play Minecraft over the last two years since I can’t get Bedrock on my steam deck without some major fuckery.
I rarely boot up my Xbox anymore. Is it bad that I’m thinking about buying the games I already own on Xbox, on a different system just to avoid using the Xbox at all?
If they’re single-player can’t you just disconnect from the internet? I haven’t turned on my xbox in 4 years. I remember the day clearly: I wanted to replay Call of Duty 4 and the xbox told me I had to buy the new Remastered version in order to play. Bitch I already paid for the game, why would I buy it again?? Turned off, never to be seen again.
It’s nice to see the LCD Deck get discounted, if only to relive the old days when consoles got cheaper instead of more expensive as time went on. I almost wanted to buy another one out of principle, even though I don’t have use for more than one.
who cares… it’ll always end up with more and more and more. stop giving any justification to companies for this bullshit. don’t even question it anymore, one ad is more then enough to throw the thing in the trash and never consider them a source of entertainment ever again.
Not justifying it, something that I paid for should not show ads. But there isn’t a current mainstream console that doesn’t have ads, so getting it once would still be better than getting it on every boot.
getting it once and not pushing back, means you’ll get it twice… then three times… then anytime you boot. then anytime you load a game, then while you’re playing a game.
you’re being raped and justifying it because ‘it could be worse’
like you said, something you paid for should not show ads, yet it is…
its interface puts anything steam related to the top, so in a sense it is advertising itself.
Let’s say you’re planning to get Silksong. You could buy it off from GOG by switching to desktop mode, running Heroic, searching back the game and buy it. Alternatively you can just search it on Steam and buy there with no previous steps.
Head over to LinkedIn and contact the culprit directly. Choose your words wisely, as they’ll certainly block you before you can get to your second barrage of abuse.
