It was a legitimately great experience and it reshaped how I view Xbox’s remote play feature. Nothing was too intensive gameplay-wise I could quickly go back and forth between Starfield and the movie, and I didn’t mind having the audio down low in-game either. Doing so consisted of mostly mindless activities like selling cargo after winning dogfights in space, looting chests and safes for credits, and completing side quests.
#BACKBONE PLAYSTATION UPGRADE#
My primary goal last night was to upgrade my ship to have more cargo, better shields and weaponry, and a further grav drive jump distance. Because I intentionally avoided the main path – I want to save those moments for the big screen – I spent my time remote-playing Starfield doing side quests, faction missions, and various activities. On top of that, Starfield is a great game for remote play.
And two hours later, I was having a great time, the same great time I had on my TV playing Starfield a couple of hours prior. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised Xbox’s remote play feature is better than it was when I tried it a year ago, but I was I couldn’t feel an input delay, the audio was fine, and even though my iPhone is a significantly smaller screen than I prefer, it still got the job done. Playing Persona 5 Royal and other games that don’t require fast input is a perfect fit for remote play, but I wasn’t sure a shooter RPG would be.īut alas, the pull to play more Starfield had me booting it up and it was a near-perfect experience. It’s the most premium phone-based controller I’ve used and feels great to hold. I’ve used my Backbone a few times and it’s been great.
#BACKBONE PLAYSTATION MOVIE#
But, given my wife and I wanted to watch a movie and I didn’t want to stop playing Starfield, I decided to give it a go. Laggy input and audio clipping have previously made the experience feel impossible. And the few times I have tried remote play in the past, it hasn’t been great. I really enjoy kicking back on the couch and playing games on my TV. I haven’t messed with Xbox’s remote play stuff too much. I say all that to preface this with the fact that Starfield’s Xbox Cloud Gaming version is not yet live – I’ve been playing Starfield on my Backbone via my Xbox Series X’s remote play feature and it rules. Otherwise, the standard edition of Starfield and its regular Game Pass release goes live on Wednesday, September 6. I should note I’ve had Starfield code for about a week, but the game launched yesterday for Premium or Constellation Edition owners or Game Pass users who paid the upgrade fee to unlock the Premium version.
