This is an easy Day 1 for me.

Solid A for me. Better than I expected. Lot of great games.

Retroware makes/publishes (I'm not sure) really good retro games.
Most are easy Day 1 for me.

That's a lot of games I was curious/interested in. I've been "saving" a few to have several to play when I sub.

Oh that's great. Mirage is the first AC game I didn't buy. I knew I wasn't gonna enjoy it that much.
I finished it though. Might go back since this is free-ish.

It's a great addition. Me and a friend will be playing this one coop no doubt about it.

Maybe I'll buy it too, we'll see.

@Weebleman

I just feel like fanboy doesn't comprise the same. Maybe that's just me though.

A fanboy can be passionate about something without being rude or downright hostile towards other people.

My use of that word was to separate it from that people.

But as I said, maybe that's just me. I feel like it's more insulting to the fanboys to call those other people the same.

And hey, no problem, man. It's an interesting discussion. But maybe not the place, don't wanna see comments start getting deleted.

@Weebleman

That's an insult now? It's more concise than saying "a Playstation user that defends everything their favorite company does, believes that they can do no wrong and attacks everyone that likes something else in discussions online".

Like I said, agreed to disagreed. There are cool Playstation people. Not that one though.

@Weebleman

But I don't go around other people's comments on YouTube or social media that have nothing to do with Sony and start talking about how Xbox is dead and Playstation is better so no.
Fair if that's your opinion but I don't agree.

Wouldn't mind if they did. More sooner than later it's going to be the norm.

But just yesterday a pony said to me that it wouldn't happen...

@Titntin

It's my favorite out of all the Sherlock Holmes games I've played so far, but I've read it's divisive.

Pros: the cases are pretty good, it's not too long, and it really showcases Sherlock's abilties.

Cons: There's a few puzzles that are really frustrating. I had to watch a video for two of them, but ymmv, maybe I'm just dumber than I want to admit. 😂

It also has a few quick-time events. I feel like they add to the tension, but I know some people hate that stuff.

For me it was still really enjoyable even with those few puzzles that are frustrating. It's the second time I've finished it, and I enjoyed it both.

Demonschool! Finally! And Neon Inferno, hell yeah!

Also, there's a few roguelites that sound cool.

Been jumping around different games not knowing what to play after finishing Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter.

Now I'm playing Heidelberg 1693 which a classic side-scroller style ala Classicvania. Incredibly difficult but very addictive.
As someone who finished the NES Ninja Gaiden games, I'd say is up there. Died like 150 times total (game keeps count) in like a dozen stages.
Not sure what else I'll be playing.

I thought there wasn't any Game Pass users anymore...

Zero interest. Will be waiting for the next Xbox.

Buy or don't buy. That's how you show what you think about it.

Dynasty Warriors for me. Not much else.

The cashgrab ended up being a cashgrab?!

Best deal in price-quality when I got it.

Finished Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter.

Started Chasm (the metroidvania, not the other one), really good far.

I've also installed Mass Effect the Legendary Edition. Need to finish 2 and 3 in max difficulty and a few other Achievements to have everything.

I don't give two flying sh#ts about GTA.

That's cool! I was interested in this one!

That's too expensive for me. 😂

Someday I'll watch those 1000+ episodes.

Indifferent. The first one was so boring, I have zero interest in the sequel. Also I don't trust modern Sony at all. They're pretty much incapable of making a game where they don't shove the message down your throat, especially when it's a sequel.

I've been in a Lovecraft mood, so Dead Static Drive looks really cool right now.

Nothing really worth it in my opinion, but I did love Shadows and Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii.

Winter Burrow alone makes it worth it for me. Everything else is just a plus.

MORE remakes? No thanks. Give me something new.

Been continuing with the Sherlock Holmes games. Devil's Daughter now which I finished many years ago but I don't remember much about it.
A little of MK1.
And Vampire Survivors.

There's no Halloween here so I don't really care about that, but I'm hoping they're not expecting to get full price after making me wait so long.

Xuan Yuan Sword not on my region sadly. One of those I'll have to play on Playstation.

It seems there's some stuff from Vampire Survivors than won't come out today on Xbox (or is it ALL the stuff?). Official Twitter is saying maybe on Friday.

That's perfectly fine for the price.

It makes some sense. I don't think I ever used it, but every damn time I talk with someone (younger or not) they do use it and waste hours and hours of just watching reels or whatever they're called. There's also an alarming number of people that just watches games on Twitch instead of just playing them. Market and society is not what it was on the NES days nor on the 360 days.
The F2P stuff like Fortnite and Hoyoverse games should be proof enough of that. And there's a lot of mobile gaming too even if a lot of people don't think of it as competition.

Damn, 72% wants to play the game. That's really good.

Couldn't care less, honestly. It doesn't affect what I enjoy or don't.

I'm playing Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments which I have in my backlog since the 360 days. 😅
And I can't stop playing Vampire Survivors which is getting a lot of free content!

If I manage to finish Crimes and Punishments I'll probably play another of the Sherlock games.

It's the way of the future, like it or not.

Knowing PS always gives a (few) point lower and being proven right each time will never stop being funny.

@UndyingInsurgent95

They said it felt half-baked or something like that and preferred to focus on the personal stories of the companions or something like that.
A lot of BS imo. But it is what it is.

I really liked everything I've played from Obsidian.
The Outer Worlds 1 was pretty much a more modern New Vegas. A little clunky but with a lot of good ideas and even more dialogue posibilities which I always love in RPGs.
Avowed needed a bit more or that but it had really cool combat.

Hopefully this one gets everything right.

Halls of Torment? Oh, hell yeah!

Gonna bet PS gave it an 8. Most of the Day 1 Game Pass games always review lower there. 😂

First one was really good. I feel like we need more games like these that have actual RPG elements but without the overwhelming combat system of CRPGs.

Lowest price ever or don't bother.

Finished Batman Telltale (the two seasons) a few days ago.
Now it's time for Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments and good old Vampire Survivors. That game always has something to do.

B-But I thought Xbox gamers didn't buy games...

I love these guys. The one was a pretty good -if flawed- game. 2 seems to be a real upgrade to that. I miss when open world games had good RPG elements.
