This weekend I'm continuing to play Robotics; Notes Elite but will hopefully play some Street Fighter 6 with a new acquaintance and hopefully some Space Marine 2 with another friend of mine.
Haven't really used Game Pass for some time. I'm not really missing it but will have to re-subscribe at some point in order to play co-op with friends.
I would just want Ninja Theory to make a sequel to Enslaved: Odyssey to the West or even better, a sequel to DmC: Devil May Cry. Those two games were at least very good.
This weekend I might continue playing Black Myth: Wukong but will also continue my solo playthrough of Elden Ring.
I will also definitely start working on my backlog of Visual Novels and SRPG's on Switch, most likely starting with Steins;Gate Elite or Paranormasight on the VN side and either Super Robot Wars Y or Demonschool on the SRPG side.
This weekend I am focusing solely on learning how to defeat the final boss in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice so that I can finally beat the game, once and for all.
This weekend I will probably play through the Donkey Kong DLC for Mario+Rabbids: Kingdom Battle on Switch(duh), continue to re-learn Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice on PS5, probably play some more Hell is Us on Series X and then play a whole lot of Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga on Switch. ๐
This weekend I'm gonna keep playing Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, Black Myth: Wukong and probably start playing something else from my backlog. I dunno yet tho, recently played through the Hitman: World of Assassination trilogy so I feel like I'm still digesting that.
I would say so, even though I still need to play through the campaign. Can't say anything about the PvP aspect though as I have not been interested in Halo's PvP modes since Halo 3.
This weekend I will play Marvel Cosmic Invasion on Xbox, Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver Remastered(on Switch) and maybe Ninja Gaiden 4 but I might also start playing The Thaumaturge and RoboCop: Rogue City - Unfinished Business.
This weekend I'm continuing Digimon Story: Time Stranger and Pokรฉmon Legends: Z-A.
I will also play more Rift of the Necrodancer and hopefully some more Rogue Trader but I will also finally start Ninja Gaiden 4 and the Xbox version of Monster Hunter Stories 2 and hopefully I'll manage to actually beat the insanity that is the final boss this time around. ๐
After having finally moved into my new apartment, I will get back to gaming for real this weekend.
I'll start slow by playing Digimon Story: Time Stranger on Xbox and probably Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle but I might dip back into some PS5 games too.
This weekend I'm continuing to play Digimon Story: Time Stranger and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R. The move to my new place is fast approaching meaning I don't really feel like focusing on too many games until I am set up in the new apartment.
This weekend I'm playing Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition, Digimon Story: Time Stranger, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R, probably some more Baldur's Gate III in co-op and also Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with my regular crew.
No idea yet as I haven't played nearly enough of any of the interesting games that have been released this year.
I've been busy with some games from my backlog and I've been playing games very casually ever since June when I signed a contract for a new apartment and ever since, I have also been busy stressing out over that.
But I at least plan on getting back to gaming for real after the move, when I've had time to settle in and I have my regular gaming setup up and running.
Brรผtal Legend(from 2009, not 2007) is pretty great so that one is my pick. I honestly don't even mind how it's an RTS given how fun the game is overall.
This weekend I'm going to continue playing Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle aswell as slowly continue my journey through Hollow Knight: Silksong. On top of those two, I will also finally start the full version of Digimon Story: Time Stranger on Series X aswell as meet up with my group of friends for our weekly Smash Bros. Ultimate hangout.
@Lanmanna I agree that having to pay to play online is pretty dumb but it's not like I have a choice in the matter if I want to be able to play with my friends and family. But like I also said, online is the only reason that I, personally, use the service and in that regard, I get what I pay for. Like, if there was a tier that gave access to online multiplayer and nothing else, I would have jumped to that, no question.
The fact that I can also subscribe to Core for 3 months for less than what 1 month of Ultimate costs is also a huge plus for me.
This weekend, I'm going to focus on Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, Hollow Knight: Silksong(great game but a bit on the easy side so far), Balatro and possibly either Baldur's Gate III or Dead Space 3.
Oh and as always, the Smash Bros. hangout with my crew.
This weekend I'll mainly be playing Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot and Balatro, all three on Switch. I will also try to find the time to finally start playing Super Robot Wars Y, also on Switch. Other than that, I guess the usual Smash Bros. Ultimate hangout with friends is on the cards. Happy gaming, everyone.
This weekend I'm mainly going to play Balatro, Salt and Sanctuary and Daemon X Machina alongside the usual Super Smash Bros. Ultimate gathering with my friends. Might also play some Baldur's Gate III in crossplay if the rest of my party is up for it. I will probably not play Gears of War: Reloaded this weekend since I will probably be playing it exclusively in split-screen with a friend. Might continue my co-op playthrough of Dead Space 3 tho.
Twice, once back on 360, like maybe 15-16 years ago and then I played through the remaster three years ago, both times solo. Good game, looking forward to playing through the remake.
I heavily disagree with Microsoft already wrapping up this gen. You'd think that with the pandemic hitting at the start of the gen and all the ***** related to that mess, they would have at least decided to extend the lifespan of Series X by a few more years. Also, I personally see no real reason to go further beyond the tech in the PS5 and Series X. I'd much rather see them focusing on actually releasing games instead of going "Look how powerful this thing is!" and at the same time closing studios left and right.
I probably will not buy Microsoft's next proper home console given that I am satisfied with my Series X and I don't really want to pay even more for a new Xbox than I paid for that one.
This weekend I'll mostly be playing Balatro, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound and I will most likely continue with the remaster of Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete aswell.

Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions Of Space Marine 2 On Xbox Game Pass?
Still as good as the day it launched even if the 60 FPS mode could use more work as it still struggles when things get real hectic.
Actually scratch that, with all the post-launch support and the new modes added since then, it's probably better than it ever was on launch.

Re: Talking Point: Four Years On, Did Halo Infinite Ever Live Up To Expectations?
I would say so, even though I still need to play through the campaign.

Condemned: Criminal Origins obviously.
Partially because it still holds up extremely well nowadays.

Haven't played it since release but just wasn't in the correct headspace for it at the time.
Re: Two Xbox Game Pass Titles Nominated For GOTY At The Game Awards, But Microsoft Misses Out
Huh.
Looks like The Game Awards nomination process continues to be a corporate mess.
At least Silksong got nominated which is good.
And that's all I can say about this continued travesty of an event given that I've yet to actually finish any game released this year.

Re: Talking Point: Exactly 13 Years Later, How Are You Feeling About Halo 4 These Days?
I recall thinking it was decent back when I played through it.
I guess I would give it a 7 out of 10.
Halo 5 was much more enjoyable for me.
Re: It's Official, Rockstar Games Has Delayed GTA 6 To November 2026

At least this gives me more time to catch up on the backlog and all the games I've missed this year due to all my apartment-related crap.

None of the listed ones as I don't use the service but I voted Ninja Gaiden 4 out of obligation.

Re: Pick One: Which Is Your Favourite Double Fine Game On Xbox?
Brรผtal Legend(from 2009, not 2007) is pretty great so that one is my pick.
I honestly don't even mind how it's an RTS given how fun the game is overall.
Psychonauts 2 would have been my second pick.

Re: Xbox Game Pass Is Getting A Major Overhaul With New Names, Games & Price Changes

I agree that having to pay to play online is pretty dumb but it's not like I have a choice in the matter if I want to be able to play with my friends and family.

Re: Xbox Game Pass Is Getting A Major Overhaul With New Names, Games & Price Changes
I'll stick with Core.
I made the jump from Ultimate to that tier back in July and haven't regretted it since.
The only reason I even need the service is for online multiplayer and I already buy any game I want to play so it's a perfect tier for me.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 27-28)
This weekend I'm basically just gonna play Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, Door Kickers: Action Squad and probably Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound.

Re: Xbox Game Pass Helps Dead Island 2 To Huge Player Milestone As Dev Teases Sequel
@HeavyHoggJP
What?
This game doesn't even have any kind of split-screen to begin with.
Re: Xbox Game Pass Helps Dead Island 2 To Huge Player Milestone As Dev Teases Sequel
Crossplay when?
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 6-7)
