Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 5-6)

Fatal Fury:COTW and picking up 3 of the last 10 games(as of today) I need to complete my North American physical Xbox One collection of normal releases(non-special editions if possible). Ramped up collecting last two years for Xbox and nearly completed right as the company goes tits up. Value just tripled, thanks MS.

Re: Test Drive Publisher Regains WRC License After EA Decided Against Codemasters Sequel

@MaseSco Hot Wheels Unleashed was hot trash. You enjoyed falling off the track like the entire game was Rainbow Road? Unleashed 2 got a bit better. Personally not a fan of rally games however I have played a few and researched many as I love the racing game as a genre and the majority have mostly seemed to be featureless or control awfully or just plain boring, Rally is not racing it's time trials and that's just not what I wanna spend my $79.99 on these days, the motorcycle games haven't been good since OG Xbox. Has anyone on console ever completed a lap yet in Ride 5, SBK or MotoGP this year? Make racing games and arcade racers again, not cart racing, not rally, not motorcycles with wheels of ice. All we have is rally and rally is boring.

Re: Talking Point: This Classic Activision Racer Came To Xbox 15 Years Ago, And We Sorely Miss It

No way, PGR never got the handling right. Great videos on YouTube about this topic. If you're bringing something back from Xbox past it better start with OUT and end with RUN, the still gorgeous Outrun 2006 or how about the Curly Monsters one hit wonder Quantum Redshift, MS own Midtown Madness, Motocross Madness, Sega Rally, DAYTONAAAA! Ridge Racer 6 or the unbound one, Full Auto, Forza before the Xbox One, at least 20 franchises, one offs, remakes or sequels I wanna see before boring reused PGR series.

Nacon and Milestone have cooperatively ruined console racing games and I blame them for the state of cheap featureless, poorly optimized and downright boring racing games. Codemasters hasn't turned out anything good since EA took over, not a fan but word is F1 games stink worse each year.

Someone(Burnout and former NFS and Playground Devs) needs to kick racing in the ass and put out a full featured fun Cruisin' or Rush style game, another Burnout, Midtown Madness, Midnight Club, Sega anything and stat. This is horrible news for racing and driving fans.

Re: Indie Hit DREDGE Is Available Today With Xbox Game Pass (May 6)

Brigurugi

Not recommended. Lovecraft has become The Walking Dead in gaming. Tired, wasn't that interesting to begin with, never fleshed out or poorly written and goes absolutely nowhere without finishing the story started years before. Where's the games based on Phillip K. Dick, Robert Heinlein or even Kurt Vonnegut stories? Give me a Slaughterhouse Five fishing tournament.

Re: Phil Spencer Discusses Why Xbox Game Pass Isn't For Everyone These Days

Brigurugi

Please please please give us back Gold or an option that just allows me to download my digital games and play online without some forced "pass" with games I don't wanna play or some agenda pushed on me. Let me play the games I paid for without your "not for me" service with useless perks for F2P games I don't need the service for and Anime for gooners.

I sometimes play more than 1 to 2 different games a DAY Phillip and almost always games that are not on GP.

Re: Toys For Bob Talks 'Ambitious' New Xbox Game & Banjo-Kazooie Interest

Brigurugi

Banjo is lame, with horribly ugly characters and world design and it always felt like cheating playing a sequel on Xbox. How about back to the psuedo original Xbox mascot and remake/sequel Metal Arms? It sold best on the original Xbox and was used in all the ads back when the system dropped. Great fun too and deserved a sequel.

Re: Hands On: Atomfall Brings Fun Detective Work & Intriguing Narrative To Xbox Game Pass

Brigurugi

@Rog-X I think allowing reviews is excellent and wish Sony and Nintendo followed suit. I've been told I'm reasonably intelligent and can skim through the bogus agenda reviews, I look for certain comments and appreciate a decently thorough or thoughtful review. Especially for indie games or games fewer people would play. I respectfully disagree and think reviews should be available everywhere when it comes to my money and entertainment value.

I personally have 150+ reviews currently on the store.

Re: Xbox Spring Sale 2025 'Sneak Preview' Now Live, 400+ Games Discounted

Brigurugi

@Vidorra yes there are exclusive deals for Gamepass members, they change weekly but are usually the same 30 games every 3rd week so the sales never really change. And never have I ever seen a deal for Gamepass members that non-members do not eventually get, usually within the same week. Really is nothing special anymore to have GamePass in any form.

Re: Xbox Is Hosting A Massive 'Spooky Games' Sale This Week

Brigurugi

Same old sale, same old games as predictable as me taking a crap every morning. Never any exciting or fresh deals in the "store". Flash sales, daily specials, weekend blowouts, BOGO at sale prices(not msrp), use points for discounts, the ability to get discounts on games that never go on sale... Anything to spice it up and make buying digital worth it.

Re: These 20+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (March 31 - April 4)

Brigurugi

@Nighto4 bought it blind instantly upon release just to support future releases and to F EA and 2K. But where's the knockoff/homages to Street games or Blitz or Virtua Tennis or NHL '94, like there are hundreds of retro inspired Metroidvanias and jrpgs, heck Pokemon has at least 50 wannabes nowadays. I don't need licenses or teams involved, just a fleshed out, feature rich arcade fun without it being F2P or $79.00.

Re: BLEACH Rebirth Of Souls Launches To Five-Star Reviews On The Xbox Store

Brigurugi

As an Anime outsider its crazy how Namco churns out these $70 titles so quickly and if you look in the Xbox store not one description or image of what the actual gameplay is and if you don't know the anime(like me) what the game is actually about. Seems they might get some laymen like myself to give these a whirl if I could see ot get a description of some actual gameplay and a story blerb. I love fighting games and had no idea a lot of these are Powerstone and tag fighter rip offs.
