Microsoft Apparently 'Expects' The Xbox Series Era To Last, Despite Next-Gen Plans

"A longer tail than usual...".In recent days, we've started to see lots of news and reporting about Microsoft's next-gen Xbox plans, but what about Xbox Series X|S?

Down Among the Dead Men Review

I enjoyed the story of Down Among the Dead Men, and I think it totally captures the nature of those ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ books of yesteryear. However, after a couple of playthroughs, it does start to become a bit stale, and the lack of energy in the voice-over doesn’t help matters.

No marketing funds have been put into it whatsoever by the publisher, a
