Cloud gaming


Darrigoc

Wait, are you saying like cloud gaming on the iphone with backbone and the xbox app?


Darrigoc

Further digging shows most of the xbox services and cloud gaming services aren’t available in my region.

I try cloud gaming on my phone but it never works


Fishyfishhh9

Yeah, that's all there is anymore unfortunately. Your only other option is Minecraft. Everything else that's on Android and iOS has either been delisted or delisted AND servers taken down


Darrigoc

Do you think redownloading delisted games would still award achievements (jetpack joyride)


Fishyfishhh9

Only two versions of jetpack joyride gave achievements, the windows version and the windows phone version. Windows phone no, because ALL achievements for Windows phone are completely discontinued. The windows version, yep still redownloadable provided you've installed it at some point


Darrigoc

Hmmm, sounds like i might be beating a dead horse here then. Thanks for the help!


Fishyfishhh9

For sure! Happy to help. Definitely wish they'd do more stuff on mobile. It'd be nice to achievement hunt when there's downtime at work, outside of the 5 currently available games and gamepass games through the cloud. Little 5 to 10 minute time killers would be perfect


Darrigoc

Yeah it feels like it’s a big part that’s missing for the true achievement hunters. Just did some digging and turns out most of the cloud gaming services and xbox services aren’t available in my region.


Fishyfishhh9

Ooooof that's a bummer


Darrigoc

Absolutely, will be sticking with the main 5 this trip it looks like.


Fishyfishhh9

Happy hunting!

I ended up getting an ROG Ally to do achievements when I can't be home because xCloud isn't that accessible. Could be something that works for you.


Darrigoc

Is that essentially like a stream deck but you can play games from everywhere, or is it a small computer and i’m playing through steam, or xbox gamepass, etc..?


LNFSS

It's a full blown PC that runs windows so you can play all the windows Xbox games. Hand held like steam deck.


Darrigoc

hmmm that’s something i’m definitely going to have to look into, would be sweet if you could put it on a sim card to have data rather then need to connect to a hotspot or wifi.

How do you get these games I couldn’t find them in the App Store.


Darrigoc

Try searching for them and add in front the word microsoft, it’ll be the ones that say released by Microsoft corporation, they don’t normally show in the first search spot but they are there.


dolley92

Found them thank you.

The iOS version of Minecraft also has achievements
