I don't know which games that Shinobi guy likes though.

I always read comments like "a game for everyone is a game for no one", but Fortnite continues to show the opposite.

Please... PLEASE don't f#@k it up. 🙏🏻😭

@Hern4ndeZzz

Fair enough. I just feel like if you played them when they were released, it's not pillar, just a forgotten franchise.
Forgotten by them, I mean.

I'd be a little interested in New Vegas if they don't dumb it down like they usually do with sequels.

Fable is one of the four pillars? I mean I love Fable, and I really want to know about the next one but I don't think you can call Fable that if the last game was 15 years -two generations- ago.

Wasn't expecting the first Final Fantasy. I think it's my favorite one! Might play it again.

@Krzzystuff

I stopped enjoying it soon after Act 1. The only character I cared about was Gustave and his relationship with Maelle... So yeah.

I hated the exploration. Combat was fine, nothing more.
Music was incredible but everything else fell short for me.

Glad I didn't pay for it.

Honestly I'm really glad I never preordered the game. I had to force myself to finish it since I was already close to the end. I don't see myself playing it ever again, so thanks Game Pass.
Could be interesting to see what they do next, but I won't hold my breath.

Echo Generation 2 is my most anticipated one, haha.

The more I read about these remakes, the less I like them.

I catched up with all the Yakuza, Assassin's Creed, Far Cry and all Persona/Atlus' games.
I'm not sure what my resolution could be this year.

I'm still playing Blue Reflection on PS4. It's a pretty chill JRPG. It has quite a bit of fanservice though, so it's definitely not for everyone. But I'm more for the gameplay and story.
Will probably go back to Xbox after this one.

@Rodimusprime13

I finished with no problem tbh. I played it long after it was released though. Maybe they nerfed some bosses or something? I'm not that good.

@RBRTMNZ

I meant no real, good reason. Yeah, I'm with you there.
I really enjoyed it.

Flintlock was pretty good imo. Another game hated for no reason. Kinda short, too. Definitely doable.

@McDen

+1 on Expedition 33. Way overhyped. Doesn't really do anything new.

Sword and Fairy 7 was actually pretty good.

The first Zero Escape game (back when it was only 999) it's one of the best stories ever created. It's best enjoyed on a DS though.

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.

I have one message and it's from Microsoft. 😂

I think my favorite was The Rogue Prince of Persia or Veilguard.

I'm letting my Xbox rest a little. I'm playing Blue Reflection on PS4. Very cute and relaxing JRPG.

Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, Avowed, Assassin's Creed Shadows and South of Midnight were my favorite from this year.

I finished a lot of games this year, some of them not on Xbox (very few) and some that I had already finished before. But I actually keep track.
Here's my list:

Metaphor ReFantazio
Atelier Rorona
Streets of Rage 4
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles
WWE 2K15
Persona 4 Arena Ultimax
RetroRealms: Ash vs Evil Dead
Evil West
Avowed
Eiyuden
Like a Dragon Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii
Assassin's Creed Shadows
Toki Juju Densetsu
Lords of Exile
(Not)God of War (the PS4 one)
Save Room
God of War 1
God of War 2
God of War: Chains of Olympus
God of War 3
Marlow Briggs and the Mask of Death
Castle of Illusion (Original)
Double Dragon (NES)
Disorder: Save Your Family
Trash Quest
Knights of Pen and Paper +1
South of Midnight
Zombie Survivors
Jedi Survivor
Expedition 33
Rocket Rats
Farmer Survivors
Undertale
Echo Generation
Terra Memoria
Fate/Extra
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Raidou Remastered
Jade Empire
The Rogue Prince of Persia
Dragon Age: The Veilguard
The Outer Worlds
Injustice 1
South Park: The Stick of Truth
Mortal Kombat 1
Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments
Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter
Inscryption
Child of Light
The Mummy Demastered
Far Cry Primal

Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii was the best of those IMO.

Here's my ranking if anyone's interested. Took the images from HowLongToBeat but a few games weren't there. A few games changed positions since last time I made it this year. I alao had finished WWE 2K25 but forgot:

A little late, but Merry Christmas, everyone!

@Deljo

I didn't realize that. 😂💀

@FarmDog08

I have +1000 (just on Xbox)... I do have a bit of a problem, yeah 😅
I don't think I will ever finish all.of them unless I keep playing until my 70s

@HeavyHoggJP

🫶🏻

Okay, so... Yeah, definitely more than 100. 😅

347. There are some DLCs there, but there's also some bundles... So more or less. I really need to stop, haha.

It's an excellent question! I'll check it out, but I have a feeling it was +100.

The other question is easy, 100% digital.

I've just bought Titanfall yesterday for the first time.

Avowed was hated for no reason. It was compared to Skyrim which it isn't trying to be and then hated because it's not that.

I don't care if I can't pick up every spoon and bowl.
Avowed was fun, with cool characters and an interesting enough story.
It was a proper RPG.
Definitely deserved more love.

Only Shinobi from that list for me.

Damn, those people have a lot of free time. 😂

No way in hell. Those awards are a joke.

Managed to more or less complete my gamer goal.

Finished Child of Light (lovely game!)
Finished The Mummy Demastered (very cool Metroidvania which can be finished in less than 5 hours).
And managed to finish Far Cry Primal just last night.

I feel pretty good about that. I'll do some more side missions in Primal and after that... I don't know.

90% Xbox Series

10% PS4 playing old games.

I would try this one, but I play on Xbox, so I'll keep waiting.

I guess it's region-locked or something because I don't have it.
Too bad, it would have been amazing.

That's cool to know! I'll wait a few years more to give them my money!

Game looked nice, but nothing I'm dying to try.

Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii.

Assassin's Creed Shadows.

Avowed.

Does For the King 2 counts?

Probably in that order. Shinobi, Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, Earthion and and Ninja Gaiden 4 too, but I haven't finished those yet.

Nothing else comes to mind.

@FarmDog08

I really liked The Messenger (haven't finished it though).

Less punishing? I don't know about that... 😂

Finished Echo Generation again and also Child of Light yesterday (lovely game!).

I kind of promised myself to finish a few games I had started before the year ends, and Child of Light was the first of those.

Now it's The Mummy Demastered.
And I'm also just around the finish line in Gladius.

Happy gaming, guys!

I'm usually really positive, but that was an F.

Such an underwhelming event. I expected nothing and I was still let down.

Still no maps? No, thanks.

It was, as always, terrible in all aspects.

I'll keep playing the OG RE4, thank you.

@NintendoByNature

Then I think you'll enjoy it! And we get Echo Generation 2 in Game Pass next year too.

@NintendoByNature

It's a very short, very sweet RPG with Stranger Things vibes.
It's a little too simple combat wise (Paper Mario), but imo it's part of the charm.
I really liked it.
Story it's a little light but it has some cool moments. I think it's on sale right now.
If you don't go expecting anything too complex I'd say it's a steal.
