You deserve it Phil. You brought Xbox back from the darkness that was Don Mattrick. Its sad to see you go but if anyone deserves its you.

Last time I can say in Phil we Trust. Thank you for your service.

Not at launch but I am sure I will play it at some point.

Looks like I know what I am playing tonight.

They are trying so hard to be Forza Horizon.

As if this wasnt expensive enough.

Avowed is such an awesome game. I cant wait for the next update to play a Dwarf.

Figured FF III would be coming soon.

Is anyone surprised, this is Sony we are taking about.

Think I might pick up the MySims Bundle.

Diablo II (Steam) Going to try out the new Warlock class
Forza Horizon 2 (Series X) Finished the third Championship onto the next one.

Thats all gaming wise as most of my free time is takin up with the Olympics.

Definitely will check out Diablo 2 this weekend. Really want to see what the new class is about. I wish they would update Diablo III as I prefer the older Diablos to Diablo IV but I understand why they dont update 3.

FYI Yakuza 3 Remaster and Yakuza Kiwami 3 are the same. Though they more or less tell the same story Kiwami is different from the original.

Currently playing through FH2 in anticipation for this game. I cant wait to race around Japan especially if it looks as good as Northern Italy and France.

I will get this as soon as they port the first game over.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Cleaning up a few of the minor rifts and doing some small things before tackling Hyrule Castle.

Forza Hroizon 2 (Series X) Just finished my third Championship and headed over to the next one. Absolutely enjoying this game and its easy to see why this ranks as one of the top Forza games.

Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) Still working on this one. Been grinding mostly but I finally have enough to buy all my level 4 spells now.

Borderlands 3 (Series X) Hopefully will be wrapping up another DLC this weekend. I enjoyed this last one alot and loved the western theme.

I.havent played Overwatch since tbe Pandemic. Didn't like all the changes to it.

Thats why you buy a can of compressed air and use it. Not that hard folks.

I still to finish Like a Dragon. Started it awhile ago but just fell off of it. No reason just didnt have the time. Plus I would need to play Infinite Wealth before I play Pirate Yakuza.

As FF2 goes. Its ok I played it on the GBA years ago and finished it but once was enough for me.

Final.Fantasy would be my vote. That one was a complete surprise.

It was my GotY for 2025. I really enjoyed it alot. I spent so many hours just exploring the world. Will definitely return to it when the Anniversay edition drops.

@FarmDog08 Yeah and the QoL improvements they made on Pixal Remaster makes a great game even better!

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Finished up the Desert Rift and now I am preparing to hit the Hyrule Castle Rift.

Forza Horizon 2 (Series X) With all the talk about Forza Horizon 6 in made me want to play one of the Forza Horozon games so I decided to play 2.

Borderlands 3 (Series X) Still working my way through the DLC for this game.

Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) Pure nostalgia kick for me here. Haven't played this game in years.

I enjoyed MySims on the Wii so I will be checking it out. Its a shame its only one PC and not the console Gamepass as well.

While its a decent game alot of it relies on nostalgia factor. I tried to play through the campaign when it first came out but after a couple of hours I couldnt anymore. Back in 1996 I could have easily play the campaign for hours on end and even days but now I just cant it hasnt aged well.

With that said though, I can still play the Multiplayer no problem especially with my brother or the boys. Yes its aged yeah their are other MP games out there better but thats the charm of it. I want to play classic GoldenEye MP. If I want say Call of Duty or Halo MP I will play those.

@wildcat_kickz Yeah ok, just keep telling yourself that. But go on any Sony forum before last year and you will see the truth.

The only reason they dont put it on Gamepass anymore is because of all the entitled Sony Ponies crying that they had to pay $60+ for it, when Sony could have very well put it on their service.

TLoZ: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch): Started tbe Gerudo Desert region. About to enter the main rift.

Forza Horizon 2 (Series X) After the announcement of FH6 it put me in tbe mood to play a Forza Horizo so I decided to play 2 this weekend.

Borderlands 3 (Series X) Continuing on with the Bounty of Blood DLC.

That is the main reason 3 is my favorite Horizon game. I loved the fact that you were part of the festival and you are making your way up the ladder in the festival. Glad to see a similar idea is coming back for 6.

Bought these last year when they released for the anniversary. I was so happy since I prefer the older Sims to the modern ones. Now if only we can get Sims 3. That was the best one.

@TojoDragon84 I would totally get it if there is.

At this point someone needs to just buy them out like MS or Sony or even Nintendo. They have good IPs that are just suffering through mismanagement.

I hope one of the cancelled games wasnt the new Heroes of Might and Magic game.

@FraserG Seems odd that they are trickling them out rather then release the whole Pixal Remaster set as one.

@NintendobyNature weren't you just asking about Death Stranding a bit ago?

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Continuing with my progress now that I am done exploring as much of the overworld tbat I can I am about to enter tbe Jabu Waters Rift.

Borderlands 3 (Series X) Still working on the Bounty of Blood DLC. This is probably my favorite of the DLC for this game.

Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) Still on my nostalgia kick with this one. I am about to enter the Marsh Cave to get the crown.

That is video game wise. TTRPG I am planning to pick up our Daggerheart campaign this weekend where we left off last week.

Have a great weekend.

Well if Sony isnt going to put out games for their own console, then someone is going to have to. Might as well be MS.

Seriously, you played Legend of Dragoon over FF7 that's a win for you. FF7 was the beginning of the decline for the FF games. The stories become dull and had no soul the villians were boring and the main characters were whiny little emo babies.

Trust me when I say you didnt miss much by not playing it. In fact you were able to have time to do something else instead of wasting it playing that game.

My first Xbox memory would be hearing the rumors that MS was making a console and then the unveiling of it. I personally never owned the OG Xbox as during that gen I had a GameCube and PS2 and it was hard enough being able to afford games for both systems. My friend on the other hand had an Xbox and when we all go over to his house it was Halo, of course and KotoR.

I didnt own an Xbox console till I got my son the Xbox 360 for Christmas 08 because he really enjoyed the Smackdown VS Raw series back then. I got him the Xbox 360 and it came with Lego Indiana Jones and Kung Fu Panda, and of course Smackdown VS Raw 2009. Mainly I got it because it was cheaper then a PS3 and all the games that he and I wanted to play on it was third party games. Been with Xbox ever since except for the PS4/Xbox One gen because of Don Mattrick's screw up. I wasnt about to pay $100 more for a paraphernalia that I wasnt going to ever use.

To be honest since I got my Series X I havent touched my Xbox One. I really should wipe it and sell it but right now its buried in the closet. If you dont own a Series X or S there is some value in getting an Xbox One especially if you want to play Gamepass games. There are alot on that service that they Xbox One can play really well.

The Legend of Zelda Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Just started this one and its turning into one of my favorite Zelda games.

Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) A trip down memory lane. Just defeated a group of pirates and got their ship.

Borderlands 3 (Series X) Picked this one up again. Started the next DLC, Bounty of Blood: A Fistfull of Redemption. So far I am enjoying the western them of the planet.

Dragon Quest XI S (Switch) Continuing with my journey. Just got to the town with a Circus in it.

@Elbow Yeah, Fortnite is that way.

Surprised to see CoD didnt make the list. Another sign that CoD is dieing.

@OldGamer999 Agreed. Its always awesome to hear that more people will be able to enjoy this great game. It was my pick for GotY 2025.

Also cant wait to play the new races.

At least these skins can work with Call of Duty instead of Bevis and Butthead and Ninja Turtles.

The third person Starcraft has my attention as I wonder if it could be Starcraft: Ghost, or at the very least it will use story elements from it.

Didn't really get into Xbox till the 360. I dabbled with an OG Xbox back in the day, my friend had one. Mostly Halo with the guys and KotOR.

@jesse_dylan No, I believe its the full game unless I missed something.

@FraserG Is it just a demo or is it the full game of Final Fantasy?

Kinda odd that they are only including just the first Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster and not the other ones.

I have always hated achievments/trophies as developers just use them to infliate the length of a game. So many times I have seen games advertise as over 200 hundred hours of gameplay or something similar, only to finish the story in less then 20 hours and find that the rest of the time is for achievement hunting.

While I dont mind achievements tied to the story, ***** ones like jump 100 times in one place or beat the boss with some obscure weapon is the ones that devs use to inflate game time and should be considered false advertising.
