Microsoft is shoving Teams down everyone’s throats harder than, I don’t know what. Teams is just awful, it’s slow, clunky, and a piece of shit that nobody asked for.
It sucks to lose access to digital content on the original console, but I am at least glad that they are continuing to offer access to digital Xbox 360 games/DLC that are backwards compatible on Series X, and that folks can still download content they own.
This is akin to Steam declaring that it will no longer support Windows 7. Which is actually happening at the end of this year.
If you already own a bunch of Xbox 360 digital games, they’ll continue to be playable. You just won’t be able to purchase new games or DLC from an Xbox 360 console.
That… actually doesn’t answer it. If the games I paid for only exist on my hard drive and not on any store… what happens when the drive eventually fails?
They stated that you will still be able to redownload games you’ve already purchased. You just won’t be able to make new purchases. It’s kind of weird that the original article left that part out considering it’s what most people would care about.
hey that’s the tool that everyone uses and definitely isn’t only seen when you open it accidentally! I bet that will be a very worrying competitor to the well established platform from 2015!
@trashhalo This really feels like Microsoft's Google Assistant moment - taking a duplicative effort of something they already had, gassing it to high heaven and shoving it everywhere despite not being asked for or welcome.
Only time will tell if they will also follow Google's approach of it slowly languishing until it crumbles apart and they do the process all over again.
Oh gee, great. I’m glad development effort was invested in this feature instead of something like having the web app be capable of showing 6 people in a conference call at the same time. /s
Sure but at least Discord actually works. Teams has always been a buggy mess any time I have had to use it. Furthermore, Discord doesn’t shove itself into every opportunity in an effort to remind me of its existence.
I wish Microsoft would have actually been taught a lesson about anti-trust bullshit rather than having a pro oligarch new administration let them off scot free
