Not seeing a lot of love for The Stanley Parable in these comments but of that list it’s my favourite. And its a very strong list!
Put over 100 hours into P5 and Hades but my time with Stanley Parable will stay with me a lot longer. It’s a game that makes you think in the abstract and does very clever stuff while also being incredibly funny. The nearest thing in terms of vibe is maybe Portal but it stands alone in terms of what it does 👍
Sure the rewards were pretty generous but taking away the 2.5k points weekly set streak when I'm one set away from 2.5k leaves a pretty bad taste.
All presented really sneakily by MS too, with all this hey we heard some of you didnt like the app being slow so were moving to the rewards tab BS where nothing actually getting replaced in terms of value. They’re just gutting out the scheme almost entirely apart from 5 point daily quests and monthly ones that are half the value they used to be. They should have the integrity to be honest about it rather than all the spin, ffs.
The rewards and weekly sets used to give me a reason to switch my series s on daily (engagement was mainly the point of the rewards from MS’ perspective)- not now. Unless I’m currently playing a gamepass game then its staying off as theres not much point.
Plus the reward tracking has been broken on recognising achievements for the last 2 days, it’s all very shoddy really.

Got to be rock band 2 for me. The sheer amount of hours and fun I got out of that game with my friends is unreal
