Episode 305 | "It's Time to Go Back...wards Compatible"


Listen Later

What a week it's been! Between some great game releases and more than a few glimpses at the next generation of Xbox consoles, the crew return to break it all down and hopefully have some fun along the way. It's the DayOne Show Episode 305!

While the crew have been busy covering the industry, I've returned from a fantastic trip to GDC, where I've caught up with developers and publishers, in addition to checking out a whole heap of games. Suffice to say, I've got plenty of previews to write!
In terms of games, I've reviewed Toxic Commando, which is out now and is pretty good if somewhat stupid fun for your multiplayer crew, if such things take your fancy. Jesse is hard at work playing through Crimson Desert, which you can expect to see more on later this week. Nick is still ploughing through Resident Evil Requiem, and he's having a very good time doing so.

Beyond all those wonderful games, GDC and Xbox's new hardware, codenamed 'Project Helix' has been the hot topic of discussion. The wizard that is the lovely Jason Ronald took to the stage for the keynote speech, as Xbox lifted the lid on their vision for what's next - a new Xbox console that plays all your existing Xbox content, as well as all your PC games. Is this as good as it sounds? We'll have to wait to find out. We managed to snag a video of the talk, because we're good like that.
In other news, the team chatted through other hot topics, be it the Xbox faithful longing to see the return of exclusive content and whether this new machine is a PC or a console or if it really matters at all. Backwards compatibility also came back as a topic, as Xbox tease more to come, and dedicated Xbox fans start a website to allow the community to vote on the games we all want to see return.
We also tackle all your community questions, as well as have some fun at deciding the new name for the next generation Xbox. Tune in, have fun and as always, thank you for supporting us directly.
