AFTER READING XBOX’S Latest Update on Game Pass for PS5, i’m convinced Next-gen consoles will all have the sun problem
Xbox’s Exclusive Game Pass Strategy is Impacting The Console War With PlayStation, and Creating Challenges in Next-Gen Gaming Platforms.
When you break it down Item by Item, it is a prey good in terms of what you’re getting for the price: The Bundle Saves you roughly $ 50, Compared to Purchasing All the Items. Howver, Its Still a Bit of an Unusual Choice. The fact of the matter is that You can’t actually play VR Games Through the xbox app on meta Quest; What You’re Effectively Buying Here Is The Ability to Play Non-Vr Game Pass on a Virtual Screen. That’s why the Xbox Controller is Included – The Games The Saylves Don’t Support Head Tracking or Motion Controls.
Remote streaming on the meta quest is cool, but it is not quite the Same as playing VR Games. IT’S NOT EXACTLY THE KIND OF THING YOU WANT TO HINGE META QUST SALES ON. Cloud streaming doesn’t use the headset to it Fulrest capabilities, instead focus on what’s effecatively just a parlor trick the Quest 3s is capable of. That said, this is still a pretty good deal if you’re interests in Game Cloud Streaming in VR and Don’t Have a Compatible Controller Yet – But otherwise, I struggle to see the point.
