Xbox Is Not For Sale, And Gears Is Back
Gears of War: E-Day is here, and the first impressions are exactly what Xbox fans were hoping for. MrMcspicey, X1thegamer, and Jordantheman talk through the campaign opening, the updated movement, Siege mode, handheld play on the ROG Xbox Ally X, and why this feels like the kind of big Xbox moment the brand has needed for a long time. The crew also reacts to Xbox leadership shutting down the idea that Xbox is being sold off. After weeks of speculation, the answer seems pretty clear: Xbox is still Xbox, the games are still coming, and the conversation around the brand is a lot more interesting when it’s rooted in what players are actually getting. From there, the show turns into a full games conversation. RuneScape Dragonwilds has quietly become the group’s cozy survival game of choice, with fishing, farming, dungeon runs, base raids, locked chests, and a blood pact that is already falling apart. Dune: Awakening gets compared as the heavier survival option, while Dragonwilds keeps winning the crew over by feeling lighter, softer, and easier to live in. They also get into the current wave of releases, including The Witcher 3 upgrades, Disco Elysium, Keeper, Mythic, Prominence Poker’s impossible billion-chip achievement, and a cyberpunk life sim that immediately gets everyone’s attention. It’s a packed week for Xbox, and it feels like the calm before a much bigger storm of games. Who are the XoneBros? We are your exclusive Xbox Series X & Game Pass weekly podcast.
