Xbox Mode’s handling of dual monitor setups is raising concerns among PC gamers, with secondary displays left blank while the primary monitor runs the new console-style interface.

Xbox Mode has officially started rolling out on Windows 11, but early feedback from users has been mixed. From rollout confusion and missing features to glitchy UI behavior and disappointing performance gains, fans are already questioning whether the new gaming-focused mode is ready for prime time.

Although Xbox controllers work perfectly with Windows PCs out of the box, some prefer the feel of the PS5's DualSense. Without a wired connection, however, the DualSense lacks some features. That changes with this ingenious fix, requiring only a $7 Raspberry Pi to get going.

World of Warcraft's housing system was a deep investment for the game, and is purely cosmetic offering no power or progression to players ... but, increasingly expensive additions have users questioning the value proposition here.

I recently alluded to this idea that World of Warcraft is losing control of its quality ... well, control. And this concept really came to ahead this week with Midnight's 12.0.5 patch, which introduced a mountain of new bugs.
