Yeah I am loving it. I have a wheel setup and it’s the first game that feels properly done for it for me. It’s great you get to tweak regulations, ai for cars and assists to find your gameplay level and get better. Some minor bugs and issues.
I enjoyed my time with the game. Some of the bugs had my friend and I rolling. We called it Llaf der or laughter. Didn’t do any end game. Might go back with a map.
I played for about 3-4 hours. Really enjoying my time and it's been my best experience with wheel racing yet. Really want to take these next few days off work though.
Yeah I got it awhile back. Best Buy was doing 100 dollar gift cards for 85 for members so I picked up two and preordered Forza, wrc, endless dungeon, starfield and bought marble madness and that new jet set radio game.
I play a lot. I don’t have any children and my partner also games a lot. I work in a high stress industry and gaming unwinds me. It does pull me from other hobbies that I enjoy. I also moved away for a job opportunity and it’s how I stay in touch with friends and family.
Between Forza covering track racing in October and EA WRC covering rally racing in November, we could be in for this generations sim racing games. I just got a wheel, stick shift and pedals with a real table to mount it all too. I’m really excited.
9.5 for me. I just beat the game yesterday. One of the best stories in a game and my personal favorite sci fi game. Really excited for the new game plus.
Really great work. Love the questing so far. Visuals are great love the seamless transitions from first person to over the shoulder to third person. Not a lot of negatives. Has some wonkiness and quirky design choices.
My partner is playing solely on her steam deck. Surely an S is closely compatible. Good for Phil to communicate the negatives and the positives. I’m personally not worried because it’s not my type of game.
Delta force black hawk down was one of my first online multiplayer games on the Pc I played. Man all the custom maps, dedicated servers, clans and modes were so fun. Hopefully this will live up to my expectations.
This is the game I'm most excited for this year. Racing games are really not that fun in split screen. Already got the premium add on so I can play this early and have a sim set up. See you on the track.
@Cashews wasn’t seeing it the other day. Not sure if they took it down with the new tiers coming out or if they close that loophole. How I paid for gamepass for over two years now.
Having a blast. I like that it's really not another sweaty PVP game. I'm level 42 with 66% story completion. A lot of interesting mechanics. Really enjoying coming home after a long day of work and killing waves of dinosaurs. Matchmaking is good, characters are fun and it's just a little japanese crazy which I enjoy. Love the boss battle as well.
@BAMozzy Just referring to this quote since the top comment referenced developers but Jim referred to Publishers. Ryan said, "I talked to all the publishers, and they unanimously do not like Game Pass because it is value destructive."
Man everyone generally seems so negative in the gaming community. This site used to be small and a great place to get general Xbox news. Idk wish we talked about games more. The Bethesda deal blew this place up and the Activision through it over the edge.
I use my reward points to pay for game pass. Spent 20 dollars on a black friday deal and haven't put down any money in over two years. I still think it's a great deal especially for new people to gaming or the xbox ecosystem. I rather have game pass over any streaming service.
Put the most time in Redfall. I enjoyed the game play loop and beat the campaign. Lana is good, chicory is fun. Plenty of good titles here that I’ve enjoyed. Trackmania is my #1 release this month.
I usually watch it live with a cup of coffee and then I’ll rewatch when they post the 4K version of the segments I want. Then I’ll watch the developers commentary. Pretty excited for it.
Trackmania is amazing. So much content and replayability and easy game to fill five minutes to two hours. Pretty user friendly to make tracks too and easy to submit and get feedback. Warlandia is fun with friends. Definitely feels Pay to win but the gameplay and setting are refreshing.
Beat both DLC's. I was just on yesterday playing some of the chapters. Still the best graphics that I've played in a game. Excited for motorsports. Probably will keep playing every so often.
@GamingFan4Lyf I played a lot of this game with a friend in coop. I would not have touched this game at all without game pass. Not my type of game but most games are fun if coop is an option.
I'm almost done with the game. Loving the graphics and gameplay. I haven't even changed any settings but I'm an idiot when it comes to frames and tech I guess.
The response to this news is absolutely stunning. I don’t get the whole frame rate issue. If the game is smooth then that’s all that matters . Plenty of games have been smooth at 30.
Get a PC if you want the best performance for a video game. Microsoft releases mostly pc day one.
Enjoy your games how you want I suppose but I really do not see how it’s such a big deal. It’s just a game in the sea of so many other great games.
When it came out I thought it was a back step for multiplayer. But I enjoyed the campaign. I’m revisiting all the gears and it’s a nice change of pace and I like how the chapters are splintered into quick battle sections.
Hi Fi because I beat it in a few days. Monster Hunter rise because I already have 18 hours in it. The amount of hours of content in January is really high. Persona 3-4 is dozens of hours. Monster Hunter is dozens of hours. AOE2 is also dozens of hours.
Beat it last night. Definitely a 9 or a 10. Great characters, great designs, fun gameplay, variety of enemies, variety in boss battles, variety in platforming. Story was well put together and the cutscenes were really well animated.
Game runs pretty good. Feels like it stutters at bad times while racing. Forza spoils us on the graphic though. Love that I can play a trial of it and that it’s set in my home city of Chicago. Probably won’t buy it and wait for it to hit EA play. Seems like a grind.
BF 2042 burned me bad. Played a ton of it too and had fun but I uninstalled in September during that big update because it somehow kept getting worse. Bots were fun and playing with friends is always fun but the new COD does BF better.

Re: Redfall Will Only Run At 30FPS When It Launches On Xbox Series X And S
The response to this news is absolutely stunning. I don’t get the whole frame rate issue. If the game is smooth then that’s all that matters . Plenty of games have been smooth at 30.

Re: Review: Hi-Fi RUSH - Tango Gameworks Drops A Beat-Bopping Banger On Xbox Game Pass

Re: Need For Speed Unbound Impresses At Over 1080P, 60FPS On Xbox Series S
Game runs pretty good. Feels like it stutters at bad times while racing. Forza spoils us on the graphic though. Love that I can play a trial of it and that it’s set in my home city of Chicago. Probably won’t buy it and wait for it to hit EA play. Seems like a grind.
Re: Soapbox: Despite Its Rough Launch, I'm Incredibly Excited For Battlefield 2042 To Hit Xbox Game Pass
BF 2042 burned me bad. Played a ton of it too and had fun but I uninstalled in September during that big update because it somehow kept getting worse. Bots were fun and playing with friends is always fun but the new COD does BF better.
Re: Pick One: Which Is The Best Xbox Game Studios Release Of The Past Two Years?
Flight sim,Grounded, Halo infinite, Forza 5. Great games I played with my friends and family. Main reason I bought the Xbox was for flight sim.
