October 07, 2025The SideQuest LIVE! October 1, 2025: This Was An Xbox
Xbox has raised GamePass prices out of most of our budgets, killed their console sales, and isn’t delivering on value. The team discusses the latest!
…alongside games we are playing (like IRE and FORMULA LEGENDS) and products we are reviewing (like gunnar’s WITCHER glasses and Snakebyte’s Switch 2 accessories).
It’s a big one this week!
