Re: Guide: Marathon Data Reconstruction Contract: Part 1

Brigurugi

Took me a good few sentences before I realized what this was about however I still have no idea what any of it means. Seriously thought the article was mistakenly uploaded with the pill photos. Thank you for reaffirming why I play single player games. Seems ridiculous, like the Marathon is a a job or bitcoin farming.

Re: SSX 3 Is Incredible On Xbox, Here Are Five Reasons You Should Try It In 2026

Brigurugi

Always thought of SSX series as overrated ugly and empty featureless games where gameplay barely evolves from the first five mins to the last five however, Just Cause 2 is a fantastic example of a game that holds up amazingly today. The 360 game runs like a dream on Series X. I will never tire of chaos, jumping from ground to a helicopter, to a jet, to the ground again all the while blowing everything up in sight will never get old.

Re: These 30+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (March 2-6)

Brigurugi

I have become completely disenchanted with new and future games on Xbox. If it's not a sokoban, it's a $5 platformer, if not either it's A.I. created UE5 slop. The AAA stuff has been wash rinse repeat as of late and I cannot fathom paying $70 for a game discounted 20% day 29 after the 28 day window and revenue is reflecting that. Seems I'm not alone anymore as more and more sleepers are waking. The crash is coming.

Re: Talking Point: You're The New Head Of Xbox, What Do You Do Now?

@SuntannedDuck2 Disney does not own any interactive or live-action rights to Spiderman or any of his supporting characters and the main rogues that were introduced in a Spiderman-only comic, those rights are exclusive and can only be licensed by Sony, as long as Sony use the character in an interactive and live action form every 5 to 6 years, INDEFINITELY. Basically, if you visually see Spiderman move on a screen Sony owns the rights and all profits not Disney. Disney paid Sony for the ability to bring Spidey into the MCU to make the stories they want, however Sony has been the lead production company on everything Spiderman with Disney in more of an executive producer position. I don't believe Sony with their own highly successful platform would allow such a look in what is currently the bottom rung of the gaming world by caving and allowing any form of their breadwinner to "slum it" on the quickly fading Xbox. Better chance for a Switch drop though...

Re: Former Xbox Employee Returns After 13 Years As New Chief Of Staff

It's like when zaslav came in and gussied everything up for the sales of Discovery and now WBD, or when Time magazine was quietly sold and phased out, or like when Sears rebooted and cleaned up before the end or the Saturn motors/Geo rebrand and cancellation of the GM days. Looking like sold or fold to me inside 3 years.

Re: New Report On PS6 Delay Throws Next-Gen Timing Into Doubt

Brigurugi

@Skedaddle still feeling positive with Phil taking a buyout and replacing him with a clean-up hitter from outside of gaming division? Change is coming and consoles will be next as it's easiest cost cutting solution. They are making more money selling games on Switch and PS5 than the home console, it would be a mistake to continue bleeding money on the console(just ask Sega).

Re: New Report On PS6 Delay Throws Next-Gen Timing Into Doubt

Brigurugi

@Skedaddle I'd check the predictive market, news on RAM shortage lasting through the rest of the decade and MS bleeding customers daily(most recently changing rewards)... the writing is on the wall, the scuttlebutt in the know, all points to no more Xbox. Prove that it's not happening.

Re: Indie Publisher Spends $0 Marketing Their New Game, Sells Most Copies On Xbox

Brigurugi

That visibility relies on your ad metrics. For the past year Copilot has decided what you see on the store based on your previous purchases, play time, GP status and whatever other odd metric it measures by. Ask the Dev of Ruffy and The Riverside how they feel about Xbox store... Because of this algorithm most of what it saw as adult gamers did not see the game in New Releases for almost 2 weeks. Xbox WAS a place for Indie to get recognized... that all changed with the price hikes. Also, less sales on PS5 likely because there are 3x the game releases weekly on the PS store. I don't buy this story for a minute. 1800 copies like it saved the dev.

Re: Multiple Games Announced For Xbox Following February 2026's Nintendo Direct

Brigurugi

Culdcept Baby!!! There was a time where it was poised to take over the world, competition wise. I will buy physically every version released on all consoles... suggest you do the same. My 3 english language games are worth close tp $500(OG, Saga and Revolt with Revolt pushing $250). Fantastic games by yourself or with friends. Think Monopoly meets Magic with a little YuGiOh thrown in. Terrible story, wonderful games.

Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions Of Space Marine 2 On Xbox Game Pass?

Brigurugi

5/10. So bored by the end of the first level and the showy graphics all seem just for show with flat open areas, bland details and generic gameplay that felt dated without ever conveying a threat. Been there and done this a lot better even recently with games loke Evil West. Don't care about the weeb neo-nazi universe much myself either. Solid 5 cause it ran okay on Series X.

Re: 'This Blew Up Way Out Of Proportion' - JDM Dev Insists Forza Comment Was Just A Joke

Brigurugi

Bummer the game is about drifting. The entire reason I am not looking forward to FH6 is Japan and drifting. Awful. Bring back the Gran Tour feel of the first game, model the entire United States, set the original Colorado map inside and make Forza fun again, no rally garbage, no drift JDM tuner dork ugly rice burners, no Hot Wheels. I'd rather see planes and boats in game before boring Japan as a Mexico reskin with Fuji replacing the volcano. Lame.
