AlwaysPlaying

I have been mainly playing Balatro this week … it’s finally got its grip in me. Downloaded Dragon Age but had to uninstall Indy for it to fit. Three day weekend so will have a bit of time to game. Enjoy your weekend y’all…

Is there anyone who wants this in 2025?

Seems more of a marketing ploy. Comments made to get attention for their own game. Much like my own posts for attention…:

Seems like a big week for Gamepass. I really can’t keep up to all the games arriving… just trying Sea of Stars before it leaves….

Playing Rogue PoP … not sure I like the controls. I really dislike missing something and falling back down…. Oh and started Personal 4 golden. It’s like a graphic novel with cringy dialogue… hope it gets interesting soon…

I can’t even begin to say how that price equals into Canadian dollars yet… I am in wrong hobby … I need to get into race horses or yachts … much cheaper

I think the rumors for UbiSoft sending AC and PoP to Gamepass have come true. The other one for latest the Crew game, Star Wars and Avatar game will happen soon….

@Fiendish-Beaver I believe DA:V would have been on Gamepass regardless if it sold well or not. It is an EA game and all EA games come to Gamepass after about a year. I knew this so wasn’t tempted to buy it. If others did the same then could explain poor sales on the Xbox.

Yes I need to finish Sea of Stars for sure! Was dreading this day

@kmtrain83 Good shout out as I gave Suns a go , loved it but stopped playing for no good reason

Been playing Vampires Survivors again with new content. I need to play a bit this weekend as I have been largely just romancing my AI girlfriend a bit too much.

Not my favorite show. I will just see what is posted here. Always wonder why Xbox doesn’t do more mini shows. Seems like they have ample resources to one a least every 3 months….

I sorta would love some of the old ultima games or Tex Murphy. Real fun old games

@JoNJoN3 Amen brother!

I still don’t know what to expect but it is a sad day when a 7/10 game can’t be recommended….

This is an excellent clampdown! Having to scroll through 1800+ items is a waste of my time

@SMJ Hmm J loves his FPS!

A nice surprise… it was on my bingo card but been disappointed before … I do remember Hexen being quite fun back in the day!

The reviews looked good to me… if you like this series it will not disappoint… reviewers are strange … if the game is linear then the knock is that it’s not open world… if it’s open world then they want a more focused linear gameplay…

Xbox S with a 1 TB SSD = under 50 games but I am ok with that… too many and you just have a digital display cabinet…

Yes, cause when I think of EA I think of Disney…

For some reason was not expecting much and got a few interesting games … Rain World and Aliens

Seems like I won’t be around after 20 years to give my final review…

@Fiendish-Beaver Microsoft has always kept billions on hand. So not only do they not carry any debt but those extra billions generate revenue which fuel their acquisitions… so they tend to just gobble up competition or patents … which is why the FTC is always one step away …

@Simu001 99% his speech was written by AI… there is a giant laser beam at Microsoft to zap you if you release any communications done by a human…

Xbox The Computer… XTC … sounds euphoric

Well for me too many games to play a game preview … I will wait out the release after all the beta testing….

Fun game and now be able to get the achievements…. I feel Slimer Rancher 3 coming to beta in a month…

@themightyant I am going to go the other way and say the game will be so large and amazing after all the time they put into it that the it will raise the bar even higher… at this point it is either a disaster or GOTY

Still playing the new lost in random game … having fun’s and gaining my pip dust…

I got a $5 complete edition “just for you”… as others have said… seems rude not to buy at that price…

Seems like we will get more of these types of games as developers rush to get them out for Switch 2. Just proves the porting from the Switch to Xbox S is an easy port. A wonderful side effect…

I buy a lot of games but with Gamepass they usually just end up as backlog… at some point I will cancel and focus on my purchases… but 2025 GP has me hooked

My reflexes will not allow me to progress too far I believe… early reports say it is one of the toughest souls likes ever … I will give it a shot but expect to run away screaming

@Fiendish-Beaver Savage dig at PlayStation folks getting Xbox games years later and buying at full price…. Love it!

I love all the conspiracy theories… and you are all right!

It certainly great value if you like their sports games … which I am not but the other games make up for it in my opinion

All three have some interest… but Wuchang is the obvious winner of my playtime

Hard to believe Gollum is considered a great game and make this list… more like a game that destroyed a developer

I buy all my games on sale but because of Gamepass I never get to them … I think at some point I will discontinue GP just to work on my backlog as how will I ever chip away at it?

Going to try and play Turnip Boy and as well as Back to the Dawn and My Friendly Neighborhood. Don’t get me started with my AAA backlog … just going to enjoy these indies as every journey starts with a single step…

Environmentally it is a great idea as watching a movie on any console uses oodles more energy than streaming on a dedicated streaming device…

This definitely looks like must play for me … I really want to play Turnip Boy before it leaves at the end of the month though… will give a few hours on the weekend

I feel my wallet getting lighter… Cyber Punk bundle is purchased… and a few more one this list like Mortal Kombat 1 and a few others are maybes…

I will be pick up the Cyberpunk 2077 bundle… I will wait on anything Ubisoft if the rumors are true and Shadows and Star Wars are Gamepass bound….

I also see “He is coming” as a game preview today as well…

I love indies and these two in particular seem perfect…

OW2 and Keeper a close second… of course when I can get to those is a mystery

@Kaloudz From my own experience, higher ups sneakily ask for ideas on being more efficient while giving those answers to the AI or “automation” team…

There is a lot of good with Starfield… the general consensus is that the games needs a redemption arc like Cyberpunk 2077 … but Bethesda doesn’t do that kind of thing
