I've finished Dishonored mutiple times and in different styles. From pure carnage to complete pacifist run all were super fun and very different. It has to be my number 1 pick. I absolutely love Dishonored 2 and Prey too. My ranks would be... 1. Dishonored 2 Prey 3 Dishonored 2
I'm really hoping Deathloop is going to be my jam.
I've played a bunch on PC already and it's a splended game. I'll absolutely check it out on Xbox too. I'd imagine it looks spectaular in HDR on my OLED, this game is perfect for the tech with nice deep dark areas that get highlighted with super bright flares and emissive textures.
8 for me. I initially really disliked the character styling, they look like dolls to me. It has grown on me considerably however in the 15 or so hours I have played. The environments are beautifully done and the colour work is really special. Overall it has greatly exceeded my expectations.
@Lavalera I agree it's lovely to see these non standard games on gamepass.
Any time I see a game that might be a gamble to throw down money on as it isn't a typical game, I get the impression most people will just play it safe and buy something else.
I'd imagine the player base is masssively increased with these more experimental games/media when the barrier for entry is so low.
@Sveakungen Oh dang that's disappointing, I was really looking forward to this. I can play on PC too but I'd rather sit on the couch and play with controller on the "big telly". I'll still give it a whirl... Recently played through Desperados 3 and loved it and was hoping this would be similar.
@TheGrimOne I have serious concerns with this, I suspect it is a kind of horde mode just in one small location/arena.
To me It sounds just like Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot DLC for borderlands...and most people hated that and thought it was a super lazy addition when compared to the other much larger sotry based content. I hope I'm wrong though.
@Kramlar Agreed! Inside is an extremely well polished game at just the right length. Sometimes short and sweet is exactly whats needed, we dont always need drawn out 12-16 hour long epic games. I will definitely play through it again.
@sjbsixpack My Xbox has played hundreds of games at this point (thanks Gamepass) and clocked up hundreds if not thousands of hours. No other games crash or are unstable in anyway except Flight Simulator.
@awp69 We're running the exact same console and tv. I thought it may be because I had it installed from day one and after a lot of patching the install had maybe got messed up.
I recently tried a completely fresh download when the new Top Gun dlc was added but some how it was even more instable for me
Shame as I love flightsims, luckily I can play it PC but I would love to play it sitting on the sofa on the "big telly"
I'm absolutely blown away by high vote count for Flight Simulator. It is by far the most unstable game I've ever played on any console, it crashes to the dashboard constantly.
Its performance is also so bad its the probably the only game on Series X that even VRR display can't smooth out.
Sure it looks beautiful but it feels like an unfinished early access game to me.

Re: 'DJMax Respect V' Makes Its Xbox Debut On Game Pass This Month
Game is fantastic! This is a very nice addition to Game Pass.
Very much in the style of the Beatmania games if anyone played those back in the day.
