I ended up buying Minecraft Windows 10 to get my wife off the Series X, she now plays it on her laptop. I now own Minecraft on Android, Xbox and freaking Windows sigh. But then again I also own Just Cause 3 and 4 on multiple platforms.

We have it and Terra-something (2D minecraft)

On PS3/Xbox/Steam for exact same reason. (Reason why I know it works on PS3)

Terraria, yeah I've got the same for that, but everyone moved on to Minecraft :). I've not told my son it's on Windows as he's been nagging for it, which may mean the machine I built up last year for him will be used :).
Since the old One S moved into the spare room with a bigger TV he's not touched his PC, cause he's got Just Cause, Minecraft, Lego Worlds and and.

So... I guess I'm installing it and will see how bad it is.

Buy Dark Alliance Deluxe Edition | Xbox

The world of Dungeons & Dragons comes to life in an explosive action RPG filled with real-time combat and dynamic co-op. Choose your hero and join up to three friends to battle legendary monsters, earn powerful gear, and unlock new abilities to take on even bigger challenges.

Installed it and played the first couple of missions with Drizzt and then one mission with CB... All I can say is, the AI is thick as pig ****.

CB can take out everything without getting close to them, they would just stand there looking at you while you kill them off one by one. I'm also not fond of the dodge and block system, while in the middle of a combo you can't stop to dodge or block so you get beaten to a pulp, and when they keep knocking you down without any way of getting out of it it gets frustrating real quick.

Just get her an old Xbox 360/PS3 (R1000-2000) with Minecraft

Yes Minecraft is that old :D

If you have GamePass Ultimate you still get free 360 games every month and there is a selection of the games you can install and play on it.

Edit: and yes you only need 1 account for both systems.

That's pretty much the plan but the budget for a second screen/tv got gobbled up by some unplanned expenses. We're in the process of moving the kids to a school that requires that they work on tablets. I'm hoping that'll open up some game time for me :)

I concur. Has the ingredients of a cool game but has crappy execution, esp AI.

Hope a bug fix or 2 sort it out. For now it goes into ignore bin. (Uninstalled)

Now imagine you were a Sony boy and you had just spent cash on it... You'd be playing it to high heaven praising it, cause you'd just spent R1000 on it.

Its not even in the online PlayStation store, well not for SA at least. Only way to get it here would be retail :D

So would not even be able to get it for my PS5 DE.

This makes me wonder if the reason some of the PS5 games get the praise is because they had to pay for retail.

If its one of em 8 in 1's You dont have to do anything on the console.
On the remote just hit setup, select device key and punch in the Xbox's code and done.

The Xbox 360/One/Series works with same remote. (Can be a pain if you have 2 next to each other)

I think that now refers to supported/launched regions.
There’s seems to be no geo-block, just visit the direct link without the locale in the url so without “en-ZA”.

They just strait pop it back in, so that's a no go ;)
