In terms of Forza Horizon 6, there were stations set up in multiple places, spanning everything from just standard TVs with controllers to high-spec simulator rigs. All of these proved really popular, and the general feeling seemed to be that FH6 was a fantastic game, even amongst those who weren't really there for the gaming side of things.Read the full article on purexbox.com

Poll: What Do You Think Of Subnautica 2 On Xbox Game Pass?

Liking what you've played so far?With Forza Horizon 6 dominating a lot of the attention last week (and let's be honest, it's going to happen this week as well), we didn't get much chance to talk about Subnautica 2, which is now playable with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.To be honest, we didn't think it was going to release on time — this is a game that's suffered its fair share of behind-the-scenes controversy in recent months — but now that it's here, it feels like the reception has been pretty darn positive so far (aside from controversy about some of the wording included in the game's EULA).Read the full article on purexbox.com
