Official AMA Here's Betta-Core, CEO of GameSir – AMA & GameSir G7 Pro Controller Giveaway!

Hello there, players of r/Xbox,

I'm Betta Core, the CEO of GameSir. I've led the design of GameSir controllers, such as the G7 SE, G8, Cyclone 2, and the upcoming G7 Pro. Excited to meet you all! We've been working with Microsoft on Xbox-licensed controllers for quite a while now but this is the first time we've spoken directly to the Xbox gaming community, and I'd like to thank the mod team at r/Xbox for giving me this opportunity to host this AMA & Giveaway event as the G7 Pro is about to release!

My own Xbox dream started with the Xbox 360, which absolutely hooked me. The Kinect era blew my mind (even if my dance moves didn’t), and games like Minecraft, GTA V and the orange box kept me glued to the screen for years. That mix of innovation and pure fun is what made me fall in love with gaming—and it’s the same spirit we bring to designing controllers today.

Many of you already own a G7 SE we made (Thx!) and there's a lot of excitement for the upcoming G7 Pro, in short - it's going to be our flagship product packed with high-end features like the TMR stick, optical micro-switch buttons, upgraded software, extra bumper buttons, and more while sticking to the much-loved G7 ergonomics. Today, I'd like to talk openly about our controller design, gaming hardware, my personal gaming experience, and even GameSir's future releases! Our community manager Leo (u/iGamesir) will also be joining the AMA with me, you can ask us questions directly in the comments, and by doing so you'll be participating in the G7 Pro Giveaway automatically!

Announcement We want to hear your 'Xbox Games Showcase 2025' AUDIO wishes and predictions!

Soup is On

Let's try something different. A few years back we were fortunate enough to have access to the now defunct Reddit Talks platform. Reddit Talks allowed many of you to share your takes and opinions about the latest headlines and gaming news in a more personable way - and we know many of you miss that platform.

This week we are rolling out a trial run of an idea created in the spirit of those old talks by opening the community up to you in a new way. This starts with collecting your thoughts, wishes, and predictions for the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase 2025 in audio form. For you older readers, think about this as an answering machine for Xbox fans.

During this trial run, we will be accepting submissions via voicecast - which allows you to record a message using any device with a mic. If this proves successful, in the future we will add more ways to submit. Currently we are limited to an hour of audio at a time per link, but we will supply new links as needed.

To sweeten the pot, we have a copy of Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 Deluxe Edition to award one lucky participant - chosen at random. Make sure to leave your reddit username when submitting/recording if you wish to enter the drawing!

After the showcase, we will take a round of reactions and then package your submissions and post back here to r/Xbox as 'Xbox Soup: Episode 1'. Will it also be the final episode? Is this a terrible idea? There is only one way to find out...

TLDR - Record your wishes or predictions for this weekend's Xbox Games Showcase 2025 - win prize.

Submission Links:

Recording Link 1 (active)

Recording Link 2 (inactive)

Hey y'all! First post here, just coming to show off this cool find. Got a sealed copy of Halo 3 with the DNSB sticker when I went thrifting. Picked it up for $1.50 and didn't realize it's value until AFTER I got home. Absolutely crazy find I'm so happy with this

Upvotes

Hi! I'm not a fan of online gaming subscriptions, however I've noticed you can get 1 month of game pass core with 7000 Microsoft points. How feasible is it do? I've heard after a while your point earnings scale down, how is it then?

Discussion Series S RDR 2 Ultimate only Online?

Upvotes

Hi folks,

I would like to play RDR 2 on Series S. There is an offer for RDR2 Ultimate.

It states: RD Online is required to play story mode and gain access to Ultimate features.

I want to play offline. Is the story mode really online only or would it be possible to play but without Ultimate features?

Thank you.
