I bought it for $35 a few months ago and have no regrets. It's more like Mafia: The Old Country than GTA. You cannot hi-jack any car, there are no radio stations, there are no police. You do a mission, cut scene, next mission.
20 years ago I was 15 and starting my first job and had money for the first time. I never got a 360 or PS3, that generation I bought a PC. FEAR, STALKER, Oblivion... good times. That Gears of War commercial really tempted me though.
I got it at launch but have some concerns. It's fun but where are the weapons? Only 3 snipers rifles? No scopes over 10x? The maps I've played so far fell small compared to Battlefield 4.
I've had Ultimate for a couple years and it's been great but as someone who prefers physical media I don't think $30 is worth it. I don't care about Fortnite and I've played every Ubisoft game I cared about
I play through every CoD campaign and barely touch multiplayer but I've put thousands of hours into BF multiplayer but have never finished a campaign. This might be the first BF campaign I finish.

Re: Control 2 Could Show Up At The Game Awards Following New Remedy Trademark
Control is the best game Remedy has ever made I think. I never could get into Alan Wake.
Re: Poll: Which Is Your Favourite Xbox 360 Launch Title?
Call of Duty 2 (PC). By far my most played CoD.

Re: Opinion: This Xbox 360 Launch Game Is Still One Of The Best Console Racers Ever
PGR 3 was great but I spent the most time with PGR 2. Online with PGR 2 was a lot of fun, great community.

Re: Poll: A Few Weeks On, What Review Score Would You Give Keeper?

Re: Xbox 360 Classic 'Condemned' Has Quietly Been Delisted, And Nobody Knows Why
It's funny, I loved Condemned and FEAR back in the day but now I never touch any horror games. I would play through Condemned again though.

Battlefield 6 and Powerwash Simulator 2. Maybe Pacific Drive if I have time... it's a three day weekend for me.
Re: Two Games Are Available Today With Xbox Game Pass (October 23)
Was Pacific Drive a suprise release? I've been waiting for an Xbox release!
Re: Roundup: Here's What The Reviews Say About PowerWash Simulator 2 On Xbox Game Pass
I would have never played the 1st one if it wasn't for Gamepass. I ended up putting over 50 hours into it and buying the SpongeBob DLC.

I would have gotten it on PC but mine is too old so I got a Series X copy.
Re: Poll: Are You Buying Battlefield 6 For Xbox On Launch Weekend?
I got it at launch but have some concerns. It's fun but where are the weapons? Only 3 snipers rifles? No scopes over 10x? The maps I've played so far fell small compared to Battlefield 4.

Drop EA play, Ubisoft classics, and that Fortnite thing a give me day one releases for $20
Re: Xbox Game Pass Is Getting A Major Overhaul With New Names, Games & Price Changes
I've had Ultimate for a couple years and it's been great but as someone who prefers physical media I don't think $30 is worth it. I don't care about Fortnite and I've played every Ubisoft game I cared about

I play through every CoD campaign and barely touch multiplayer but I've put thousands of hours into BF multiplayer but have never finished a campaign. This might be the first BF campaign I finish.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 6-7)
@Link41x how can you still play Gears Pop!?
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 6-7)
If anything probably Under the Waves. It's been pretty enjoyable so far.
Re: Poll: Are You Buying Borderlands 4 Next Week?
Never played a Borderlands game and I don't think I ever will. The art style and humor just don't do it for me.
Re: 007 First Light Gets Massive Gameplay Deep Dive, Hits Xbox In March 2026
@RiverGenie I'm in the same boat but I hope I am wrong. I wish I didn't know it was made by the Hitman people.

Just once. The Xbox One edition
Re: Shemnue 3 To Make Xbox Debut With 'Enhanced' Version For Series X|S
@Ricky-Spanish I have always believed if the Dreamcast could play DVDs the console market would be a lot different today.
Re: Shemnue 3 To Make Xbox Debut With 'Enhanced' Version For Series X|S

I will be "watching" as much as I can but will be at work. After I will be refreshing Pure Xbox to catch up.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 16-17)
Mafia: The Old Country. It's a game my wife actually likes to watch and she is Italian so she translates half the game for me.
Re: Talking Point: Will The ROG Xbox Ally Be Your First 'Handheld Gaming PC'?

Re: Pick One: What's Your Favourite Battlefield Game On Xbox?
