GameSpot – For nearly twenty years, Microsoft’s Xbox has been a constant force in gaming, nestled alongside Sony’s PlayStation as one of the most popular gaming brands. With the coming shift that the upcoming Xbox Series X will bring, fans have been clamoring for more details on what’s to come with next-gen. While the console itself features some impressive features, the one thing that players are especially excited to see more of, and to get their hands on, is the controller itself. The many controllers throughout Xbox’s history have placed themselves among the pantheon of gaming’s most iconic devices, and the Xbox Series X’s controller looks to continue on a tradition of having an accessible and engaging peripheral to get a grip on.
With this in mind, we wanted to take a look at the history of the Xbox’s key controllers and upgrades. Many of these controllers would possess features and innovations that would go on to become trailblazers for more exciting and accessible ways to play for the audience. In this video, video producer Jay Julio takes us back to the beginning with the Xbox’s original controller–often known as The Duke–and explains how each device paved the way for what came next.
Digital Foundry – A superb game on last-gen systems but somewhat rough around the edges with very questionable performance, Saints Row The Third Remastered addresses all of these issues, radically upgrades all visual aspects of the presentation and to put it simply, it’s one of the best remasters we’ve seen.
Roger Waters – Social distancing is a necessary evil in Covid world. Watching “Mother” reminds me just how irreplaceable the joy of being in a band is.
Oliver Harper – One of the most expensive and bizarre b-movies released in the 1980s. Is it brilliant or just…bad? The sci-fi movie that John Carpenter should have directed 🙂
John Hancock – After waiting for the new Star Wars Cab to go on sale, I finally bought it. I had been eyeing this item for a long time. I grew up with the arcade originals and was hoping that this could deliver and take me back to my childhood. Is the force strong with this one or should I wait to get something else?
Radical Reggie – So I decided to do yet another gameboy advance hidden gems video/ I have to honest, I didn’t think i had another in me, but I found some pretty good ones I feel you all will enjoy. This video is dedicated to my good friend John from Intrigued gaming.
