Bethesda is now officially part of Xbox!
So of course Game Pass is now getting all the games. We can now play play Skyrim for the 400th time!
Get your free Porche in Forza Horizon 4, and Lee talks about the Xbox Wireless headset he reviewed in the very next #GameFace! episode. Do you know we have a clan in The Division 2? Because we do! And you should totally join.
And we finally have the answer about Bethesda exclusives! Xbox is now the home of Western RPG's, and we're so excited we can barely sit still.
For the new games, we have so much release fodder. Just about every single game in the world is being released this week, for some reason.

This is our 200th episode!
Woohoo!
You guys seriously deserve a medal for listening to over 200+ hours of us talk nonsense about Xbox, games, and life. We're super happy you've stuck around though. Give yourself a pat on the back from all of us!
For our 200th episode, we go back in time and have a chat about what got us into Xbox.
Why did we start down this path, what was the catalyst, what tipped us over the edge...? And other questions you never knew you needed the answers to.
So, sit down and join the whole Xboxcast - Kyle, Lee, Simone, and Paul - as we go over our history with this amazing little device we call the Xbox.

We have names for stuff and things.
Yes we do...
By the time you listen to this, it's more like old news... Not much we can do about that really.
Unless of course you join us on Twitch! Live streaming directly to your face every Tuesday night at 8 PM New Zealand time!
This week, we talk all about the EU approving the Bethesda/Zenimax buy out buy out by Xbox. What does it mean? What will happen now? Are we getting exclusive Elder Scrolls? We know nothing, but that doesn't stop us from giving our opinions anyways. Are you excited? Because you should be! Why? We don't know...
And as an added bonus, we go over a bunch of Division 2 stats to really get you excited about this game. Did you know we have a clan in Div2? Because we do and you should totally join. Diablo 2 Resurected is coming and we may be a tad excited. There is almost too much news. We may need help just to keep up.
Don't forget to join our Patreon and Discord!

GameFace! Bytes is back and ready to tell you all about the Outriders demo.
What we like, what we don't. How far we got, where we stopped and what we did. And everything in-between... What do we really think of this game from our first few hours with it, and will we be buying it?
Find out all the answers now!
We're still wrapping our head around podcasting remotely and internationally, so these first few episodes may be rough. You have been warned!

Three. Meter. Pizza!
And wobbling home...
The gameplay charts are looking flat. Come on guys, play something else! Anything else. We don't care and won't even mind. We go over all the new games coming to Xbox Series X as shown off by Playstation. Talk about the March Xbox event and even look back on the Series X and S myths that turned out to be true.
Then, prepare your inner 13-year old boy as we race, crash and customise Monster Trucks in Monster Jam Steel Titans! And race through the solar system in Orbatal Racer. Oh, and there is even a mini rant about 3 out of 10... All this and more!

It's the Lee and Paul take over episode you've been waiting for!
Kinda...
Join Lee, Producer Paul and Kyle as they go over the news from the past week.
No Man's Sky goes Pokémon with the pet update. Metro Exodus shows how powerful the little Series S really is. And is Xbox going to buy Kojima Studios? Some people think so...
Crazy Taxi is back! But not really. There a new game called Taxi Chaos which seems to be a Crazy Taxi clone... There are new games coming out, but it doesn't seem to be super exciting...

What do you want to see from Xbox in 2021?
Join us for all our hopes, dreams, and predictions for Xbox in 2021!
We are back from our hiatus and we come bearing all the news. Like so much!
Lee tries to catch us up with what's been happening over the last 2 months. And does a stellar job of it. Much like Xbox setting a world record to project Destiny 2 onto a mountain side.
Kyle keeps things brief with the new games, focusing on the past week's releases.
In more exciting news - we have merch! How do you get this merch? You'll just have to join our Discord to find out!
