I was intrigued by Banishers when it was first announced, but never picked it up. Good to see it on Game Pass.
Very much enjoying it so far. The mechanics of switching between Red and Antea in combat and to solve puzzles are fun. The story has me wanting to play more. Unfolding the truth behind each haunting is compelling.
Nice to see Dave make the jump to Xbox. Great game. Felt like it would go on forever with how many new features it’d throw at me, even after several hours of play. And that’s just the base game.
It works out cheaper for me with Fortnite Crew being included. On the whole though, I think it sucks. It’s terrible value for people who aren’t interested in those kind of extras. If I wasn’t, I’d be changing my subscription.
I was surprised seeing all the complaint posts pop up on Reddit recently. Not because I didn’t think anyone would complain. That was absolutely going to happen. But I’d had this feature for a while already. Was it randomly tested on some users? I’m not registered with the Xbox Insider Program or anything like that.
Honestly, I like it. And it’s easy enough to get rid of if you don’t.
This was easily one of the most surprising reveals. First seeing the Game Freak logo on an Xbox showcase, then seeing what I never would’ve guessed was a Game Freak title if not for their logo being shown first.
It looks great, but sounds like it may not be my kind of game. Will be keeping an eye on it though. Since it’s coming to Game Pass, nothing to lose by giving it a go.
Will be checking out Blue Prince for sure. Been looking forward to that one since Debug covered it. Game Pass has been getting some great indie titles.
I bought one a couple of years ago. Purple and green. I don’t use it much, especially since getting an Elite, but I’m happy with it. Mostly use it with PC and it still works fine.
I started up again a few days ago, but not because of the update. Just decided to finally give it another shot because I couldn’t get into it the first time. Now I’m really enjoying Starfield.
Really enjoyed Ravenlok. It’s a beautiful looking game with a very nice soundtrack, and I had a lot of fun playing it. Good one for the achievement hunters too. Shouldn’t be too hard to get full Gamerscore on it before it goes.
Potentially a nice way to support indie devs, but you know it’s the big studios who would jump on this.
I can imagine it working well for someone like Hello Games, after years of updates to No Man’s Sky. They’d deserve it for the insane amount of free new content they’ve bought to the game.

Pikuniku is some cute and silly fun.
