I used to do that back in the day, you know.
Without those cloud saves, there is no “This is an Xbox” initiative, after all.
Feeling festive yet?
And hey, Steam does it pretty damn well.
It would be nice if Xbox Santa could fix this one for us in 2025.
HOWEVER, very few of my actual games support Xbox Play Anywhere, at least for cross-platform save progression.
The Xbox PC app has improved a lot, but there’s more to do.
Some games have a proprietary solution, which is fine.
All of Xbox’s first party games do generally, too, via Xbox sign in.
MANY games on Xbox, however, do not.
“This is an Xbox” doesn’t work without more Xbox games!
Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Collection too.
Listen, I’ll even buy your games twice.
Xbox achievement system revamp
I admit, I’m not much of an achievement hunter.
An evolved Achievements system would be nice, right?!
like spare me more DMs, Xbox Santa.
yo, revamp the Xbox Achievement system.
Xbox was a pioneer in “fun” gamification features that extended the ecosystem beyond the games themselves.
Xbox has fallen behind its third-party partners in controllers.
In recent years, though, the system has become forgotten and stagnant.
Both of those, however, have also evolved the system beyond what Xbox offers.
It’s a win-win.
Monster Hunter Stories is exclusively NOT on Xbox, and it’s an ongoing tragedy.
Xbox has lost many of its platform-level “fun” features like Avatars over the years.
A couple of these were from the Xbox Design Lab I purchased myself, one was a review unit.
I’ve been using theRazer Wolverine V3 Proas my primary Xbox controller for a while now.
Hall Effect sticks eliminate all joystick drift.
Razer switches on the buttons and triggers are as reassuring as their keyboards and mice.
That charging dock is an absolute killer feature.
It’s just a shame that it can’t recharge the bumpers into a working condition.
It feels overdue, Santa!
We saw Death Stranding arrive from Kojima Productions, which is as awesome as it was unlikely.
We finally got fully pledged support from Square Enix, seeing classic Final Fantasy titles arrive.
Sega has been on board with ATLUS titles like Metaphor: ReFantazio, Persona, and Yakuza.
But, I’ve been a very good boy, so, I want more.
What do YOU want from Xbox for Christmas?
