#NuNews: It’s Good If You Use It

2023-08-07

You didn't know you needed this news. Just like that bacon and egg pie you're currently craving... We race into pole position with the release of F1 Manager 2023, and that seems to be the only good game coming out this week. Nothing is of note, so Lee struggles to stay awake. Can Kyle's puns keep him awake? This week is controller news heavy - from new controllers from Xbox to new custom controllers where you can add a wheel, to even replacement parts of your Elite controller. Looks like we need to take control of the news!

This week is controller news heavy - from new controllers from Xbox to new custom controllers where you can add a wheel, to even replacement parts of your Elite controller. Looks like we need to take control of the news!

Final Fantasy XIV is coming to Xbox! And Square Enix has committed to more games on Xbox too. If you're a Square fan, then this is your birthday. Phil has delivered on his promise of Japanese games on Xbox and its paying off! Are you excited? Kyle is excited. Even Lee is slightly excited. Its time to get hyped!

In some sad news, the Xbox Console Companion app is being retired. And there's no replacement on PC if you want to see anything of the social side of Xbox. If you're a PC gamer, you should be filling out all the feedback to let Microsoft know what a stupid idea this really is.
