Opinion: XBLA Was Amazing, But Xbox's Indie Program Is Better Than Ever Right Now

ID@Xbox is serving up great games on a weekly basis.If you were an Xbox fan in the Xbox 360 era, you'll almost certainly remember the Xbox Live Arcade program (and indeed the Xbox Live Indie Games program), which allowed creators of a smaller size to bring their games to the platform digitally, and gave us some of the most popular titles of the generation like Minecraft and The Walking Dead.Xbox Live Arcade (often referred to as XBLA) is remembered fondly as a result, but we'd argue that ID@Xbox

Xbox Relists Multiple Backwards Compatible Games, And Then Quickly Delists Them

"What's happening?".There's been a lot of talk about Xbox backwards compatibility in 2026 already, especially since Xbox teased some kind of revival for the program at GDC a few weeks ago, but at the moment, we have no idea what we'll be getting. Will it be brand-new additions for console? The arrival of Xbox backwards compatibility for PC? Could it be something totally different that we haven't considered yet?Whatever the case may be, there's been an interesting discovery by the Better xCloud T

To Farm Lands Expands With Sowing Fields

Some games are built for long sessions and deep investment. Others? They’re the kind you dip into with a cup of tea, play a few levels, and come away feeling just that little bit more relaxed.

A surprising advantage for the lesser-powered system.It's not very often that we expect the Xbox Series X to beat the PS5 Pro in terms of visuals or performance, but apparently that's the case with the new upgrade for Assassin's Creed Unity, which has a graphical advantage on Xbox.This is according to the fine folks at Digital Foundry, who advise that the Xbox Series X version of Assassin's Creed Unity is now outputting at 2880x1620 compared to the PS5 and PS5 Pro's resolution of 2304x1296.

Is It Us, Or Did Xbox Just Get A Major Makeover On The Microsoft Store For Windows?

This looks better than the Xbox app itself.Truth be told, we pretty much never engage with the actual Microsoft Store app for Windows. If we're going to play PC games, it's either through the dedicated Xbox PC app, or another storefront like Steam and the Epic Games Store.However, we came across a post today from MondoXbox that suggested the Microsoft Store app had received a major Xbox overhaul recently, and yeah... we've never seen this before. It's either brand-new, or just relatively new!Rea
