Almost solely dawn of sorrow and wind waker HD. I may fire up my xbox for something but not sure yet. But I'm trying to decide what else to play once i beat either one. There's a bunch coming out this month I want to dabble in too.
@Boldfoxrd I first beat it on the nes classic edition without using save states. Ever since I beat it "fairly," I've been wise enough to abuse save states. It's honestly a much more enjoyable experience if you use save states and I can recommend it. Otherwise, you'll be ripping your hair out like I did the first time I beat it.
1 issue among Many. The bigger issue is not even having many first party releases this year. Hellblade 2 being the only one thus far is the major problem. If they'd have 4 or 5 releases already this year 30fps, I'd be stoked!
If it's only CoD and not indy, it's a pretty abysmal year unfortunately. Less and less am I playing my xbox and shifting back towards my switch. Indy is my most anticipated Xbox game by far so if it's only hellblade 2 and cod, ouch.
Nintendo World Championship, and Live a Live. I think I'm going to fire up the ol wii u and play Wind Waker tonight. On xbox, I'm kind of at a standstill as I haven't decided what to play yet
Got a bunch on my WL. Kind of hoping for RE4R to hit 50% off or alone in the dark to hit a deep discount. Other than that? Baldurs gate 3, like a dragon infinite wealth, or dragons dogma 2
Mostly Evil West and Live a Live. But I had a hankering to play Alttp as well so I did the initial dungeon. Might keep playing it til the end. We'll see!
I downloaded II. Never played the first but I understand you don't need to. Sort of wish they waited to release this during thier showcase. Would've been extra hype.
Paper Mario TTYD and Evil West/ Fallout 4 on xbox. Can't decide what smaller title to play in my backlog. I tried out Gimmick Special Edition but I did not like the slow combat mixed with the fast enemies. So I might give kudzu a shot from the backlog, or buy tiny thor.
@XBOX045 @nomither6 haah yep! Them were some good times. I haven't played cod in nearly 10 years actually. It just stopped innovating for me after a while, much like madden. But after a long hiatus, I can see myself enjoying it again.
Well written as always. I trust PJs words more than anyone else on this site, and the sister sites. Sounds like I'll play it soon, but no need to stop what I'm doing and play it tonight.

Re: Xbox Series X|S Console Sales Estimated At Under Half Of PS5 In New Report
Not surprised. They've dug their own grave this past year.

Re: Roundup: Here's What The Critics Think About Visions Of Mana From Square Enix
Can't decide if I should grab day 1 or just wait for a sale.
Re: These 20+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (August 26-30)
Waiting for visions of mana reviews first.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 24-25)
@Boldfoxrd yep. Same here for me. First time was without save states for zelda 1. I use save states now.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 24-25)
Mostly Wind Waker HD, and Zelda II. Haven't decided on anything else.

Re: Reaction: Indiana Jones And The Great Circle's PS5 Announcement Marks A Bold Step For Xbox
This ball game is ovah!
Re: Rumour: Xbox To Announce 'Big' Game For PS5 Next Week
Xbox is toast. I barely play anymore since all this stuff has been coming out this year. Momentum is slowing, and the writing is on the wall.
Re: Xbox's Hi-Fi RUSH Studio Tango Gameworks Revived, Acquired By PUBG Publisher
Glad it's not dead. MS really fumbled this one.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 10-11)
Wind Waker HD and Nintendo World Championship. If I have time, maybe CoD III Campaign on xbox.
Re: Talking Point: How Would You Feel If Xbox's Major Fall Release Is Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6?
If it's only CoD and not indy, it's a pretty abysmal year unfortunately. Less and less am I playing my xbox and shifting back towards my switch. Indy is my most anticipated Xbox game by far so if it's only hellblade 2 and cod, ouch.
Re: It's Official, Xbox's Avowed Has Been Delayed Until 2025
Welp, all they really got in the pipeline for me is indy then. But I can easily see that being 2025.

Re: Deals: The Best 'Lowest Price Ever' Games In The Xbox Ultimate Game Sale 2024
Alone in the dark needs to drop down to $20-25 for me to buy.
Re: Talking Point: How Hyped Are You For Indiana Jones On Xbox Series X|S?
It's my most anticipated xbox game this year.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 20-21)
Mostly ALBW but also Live a Live and some Still Wakes the Deep
Edit: also splintered fate as I just bought it for co op with my little guy.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 13-14)
ALBW, Live a Live, and Still Wakes the Deep.
Re: When Will The Xbox Summer Sale 2024 Be Revealed?
Got a bunch on my WL. Kind of hoping for RE4R to hit 50% off or alone in the dark to hit a deep discount. Other than that? Baldurs gate 3, like a dragon infinite wealth, or dragons dogma 2
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 6-7)
On Xbox, still wakes the deep.
On switch, alttp and live a live.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 29-30)
Mostly Evil West and Live a Live. But I had a hankering to play Alttp as well so I did the initial dungeon. Might keep playing it til the end. We'll see!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 22-23)
Evil West on Xbox and TTYD on switch.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 15-16)
TTYD on switch and Evil West on Xbox
Re: Here's Everything That Was Revealed At The Xbox Games Showcase 2024
@Pastellioli ok just making sure. I would've bet money we'd get anywhere from 2-4 drops today, and nothing. Oh well. I have a bunch to play anyway.
Re: DOOM: The Dark Ages Confirmed As A Day One PS5 Release In 2025
And on GP. So sweet.
Re: Here's Everything That Was Revealed At The Xbox Games Showcase 2024
Just to make sure I didn't miss it, no huge shadow drop of gp games?
Re: 'Gears Of War: E-Day' Is The Next Instalment In Xbox's Famous Franchise
Definitely the highlight.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 8-9)
Won't have much gaming time but the little I will have will be PM TTYD. Maybe some evil west. And a little bit of stranger things 1984
Re: These Four Games Are Coming To Xbox Game Pass (June 12-18)
Too many games! I'll never get through what I'm playing.
Re: Square Enix RPG Gets A Surprise Release On Xbox Game Pass
@Xbox_Dashboard not counting on either, but that would be MASSIVE
Re: Square Enix RPG Gets A Surprise Release On Xbox Game Pass
I downloaded II. Never played the first but I understand you don't need to. Sort of wish they waited to release this during thier showcase. Would've been extra hype.
Re: Rumour: Octopath Traveler 2 Could Launch On Xbox Game Pass This Month
This would be very cool. My only problem is that I doubt I could get through it tethered to a TV. I'd be more inclined to play on switch.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 1-2)

Re: Redfall's Final Update Is Now Live On Xbox & PC, Here Are The Patch Notes
Sweet, I actually might jump back in and play through the whole story. Only got about halfway or so through last year.
Re: Xbox Team Highlights Six Indie Games You Should Check Out This Month
Candle Knight and Crow Country look great. On the WL they go.
Re: Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Is Launching Day One On Xbox Game Pass
@XBOX045 @nomither6 haah yep! Them were some good times. I haven't played cod in nearly 10 years actually. It just stopped innovating for me after a while, much like madden. But after a long hiatus, I can see myself enjoying it again.
Re: Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Is Launching Day One On Xbox Game Pass
As long as there's no massive price hike, I'll stay subbed and play some cod like it's 2009.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (May 25-26)
Couldn't game much this weekend, but paper mario ttyd and hellblade 2
Re: Talking Point: Is There Anything Specific You Want To See In Redfall's Final Update?
I still need to get back into it. I put a little over 8 hrs Into the game back at launch and stopped when totk dropped. I thought it was a fine game.
Re: Review: Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 (Xbox): An Incredible Spectacle That Lacks An Essential Hook

Re: Hellblade 2's Official Launch Trailer Shows Off Its Stunning Next-Gen Visuals
@SodaPop6548 same. I looked it up and I don't know how accurate it is, but it says review embargo lifts on launch day. Kind of strange
Re: Xbox Game Pass Will See 'Changes' When Call Of Duty Arrives, Rumours Suggest
Massive price hike will be the end for me unfortunately
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (May 18-19)
Skyward Sword, super mario land, and Fallout 4
Re: Rumour: Xbox Planning To Bring More Games To PS5, Despite Some 'Unease' At Microsoft
Ugh, this is getting exhausting. I have no clue what's going on over there. Sounds like xbox doesn't either.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (May 11-12)
Skyward Sword and Fallout 4
Re: Xbox Is Reportedly 'Considering' Hellblade 2 For PlayStation 5
