Topic: Now Playing on Xbox Series X|S

@NintendoByNature It sucks when you invest time in a game and then you feel forced to give up, but the sooner the better. I would have done the same thing. I just haven't played it and will not. I tried Blue Prince and I gave up, because the invested time was not that enjoyable and the game is basically a loop of trial and error. Game of the year for some, though.

I posted about this. I'm playing Final Fantasy XIII Lighting Returns. I played the other two a few years ago. I hated this third entry at first, but once I got the hang of it, I started loving it. The world is wonderful to explore, looks awesome (on Series X) and the side quests are interesting and not overwhelming. It also adds more to the story of XIII which I consider great.

@Banjo- yea for sure. Like you said though, at least I didn't put 20+ hrs in only to give up. Ill take my losses at 8hrs, I'm good with that.

Has anyone played Robocop unfinished business yet? The first game was great, but I'd like to hear some personal thoughts about the second game as its on sale atm.

@NintendoByNature Its on my list though pretty far down, not because its bad but just because I have other games before it that I want to play first. Right now I am about to finish Borderlands 3 and then after that its Borderlands 4 and Mafia Old Country.

Now that I cut down my Gamepass and wont be getting day one releases I will be getting to my backlog alot sooner.

@Tasuki yea same here..ill be checking out more sales and all the games that didn't come to GP

Started the Handsome Jackpot DLC for Borderlands 3 tonight. Its a fan DLC and the tone and story reminds me of BL2. It is a nice nod to BL2 and Fallout New Vegas. Right now I am about halfway through it, I read somewhere that its about 8hrs long if you do everything which I am.

Re4 Remake

@NintendoByNature Nice I am dusting off my Wii U this weekend and playing RE 4 for the Wii on it for the Halloween season. I dont know why but the Wii is my favorite way of playing this game.

@Tasuki thats what I've heard( thats its just about the best way to play the game). However, playing the remake is awesome so far. Im a few hours in, and it's great to look at. Still feels familiar but it's a been a good while since I've played, so i don't remember everything

Playing Keeper, Its so like REZ for me, amazing visuals and music both matched perfectly

Keeper is amazing. My GOTY.

Playing Perfect Dark Zero, it's an ok game it's no OG Perfect Dark, I did get it part of the rare replay collection which was mad cheap on it's own

I couldn't agree more

Also now playing this gem of a remake

Love it!

A great remake to a great series

Playing a game called Valley. And holy smokes this is great. I picked up a few games in the black Friday sale which have been sat in my wishlist for a while (Super Woden 2, Turok 2 and Chronicles of Mystara) with the little change I had left over, pulled the trigger on Valley. Why? I have no idea.

I forgot about it somewhat, reprising my role as Shepherd in Mass Effect, polishing off Ball X Pit, racing around Suzuka in Woden 2. Then yesterday after falling out with the vastly overrated Turok 2 and it's myriad laborious mechanics, seen Valley sitting unplayed, staring back at me wistfully. Okay okay let's install it.

I wasn't expecting much, I mean how good can this be for £2?

Well let me tell you purexbox fam, Valley is bloody marvellous. The Leaf body suit is fantastic and the level design is top drawer. What an excellent experience and I'm only at level 5. Buy it people.

Started Marvel Cosmic Invasion last night with my son and what a blast. This game is so much fun. I really like the combo system which adds a new strategy to the beat em up gameplay, it reminds me alot of the Marvel VS games. Graphics are gorgeous and the challenges are fun to do and not to annoying. The only thing is I wish there were more characters to choose from. Not sure if its a licensing issue or what but I am hoping maybe some DLC later on with more characters like they did with Shredder's Revenge. So far my favorite characters to play are She-Hulk, Captain, and Wolverine. Story wise I just unlocked Venom so I have yet to try him.

Overall another great modern beat em up.

I'm jumping between a few things recently.

Marvel Comic Invasion - Terminator 2D - Destiny - RE 4 Remake

Is Terminator 2D any good?

@TeamAndromeda Very good. Music, gameplay, pixel old shcool look. Highly recomment.
