@HardRockGamer @WildConcept6 I agree there will be microtransactions, its just the state of live service games now. I am not even really against them either to be honest just stick with a theme. I mean have military outfits and maybe cameos and such but when you break the immersion is where I have the problem.

Either that or have it where we as players can turn off that b.s. on our screen. Like have a filter where they replace Bevis and Butthead on my screen so I can stay immersed.

Dont advertise that you are going to be a dark and edgy military FPS and then have Bevis and Butthead running around with unicorn fart guns shooting at Seth Rogan while avoiding some Ninja Turtles.

If CoD wants to go the creepy Fortnite Uncle then that fine just dont go calling yourself Black Ops 6 and saying you're a military shooter.

As long as they dont have Bevis and Buthead skins or Seth Rogan, or pot smoking lizard or anyother immersion breaking skins I will be checking this out. I need a good FPS now that Call of Duty has become Fortnite for Rejects.

Suikoden (Xbox Series X) Will be starting the first Suikoden this weekend. One of my favorite RPGs of all time.

Madden 25 (Series X) Continuing my playthrough. Midway through my fourth season with the Broncos.

CoD: WWII (Series X) Some multiplayer. Its so nice to play an actual CoD game again and not some Fortnite wannabe.

That will be it for me this weekend

Played it last year and loved it. They really did well with the IP and it felt like a continuation of the movie series.

I never knew that existed lol. Then again I haven't bought a new movie physical or digital in years. I dont watch movies much and when I do I either go to the theater or just wait till its on one of the streaming sites.

Kind of a misleading title there. I am pretty sure games like Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will get lower prices then listed now especially around Black Friday.

Nothing of interest for me from this list, but I know its just a partial list. I will be checking out the full list later tonight after work.

I started it yesterday and I am enjoying it alot. My biggest gripe isnt the game though its the controller lol. I grew up playing THPS 3 on the PS2 so playing with an Xbox controller is taking me some time to get use to. Other then that fabulous game.

Well the main one I was hoping for was the Suikoden Collection, but I just got that physically during Prime day.

I am just going to prepare for when Skynet takes over.

@BaconWizard People like you is why CoD is in the state its in.

Mortal Kombat 1 (Series X) Finished the main kampaign the other night but this weekend I will be starting tbe DLC kampaign.

Suikoden (Series X) Got the collection on Prime day. One of my favorite RPGs of all time. Will be starting this as well this weekend.

Tony Hawk 3+4 (Series X) My favorite Tony Hawk game of all so of course I will be checking out the Remaster.

CoD WWII (Series X) Will be doing some MP matches this weekend. One of the best CoD games around.

@HardRockGamer Fixing the games is just not a priority for the big bosses I am guessing. They want their devs all on currentl CoD to get those battle passes out and Bevis and Butthead Skins so the kiddies can buy buy buy.

@HardRockGamer Oh I agree but you get people who dont understand they just want CoD on Gamepass because you know thats why they bought Activision according to some people. I am pretty sure putting the games on Gamepass in their current state is due to corporate big wigs that dont know or care how bad they are. They just want those fan's money who want it on Gamepass now.

Definitely going to be playing this today since 3 is my favorite Tony Hawk game. So many memories with the original on PS2. As for the soundtrack it probably wont bother me to much as I only remember Ace of Spades really. If its as good as it appears to be, it looks like I can finally retire my original Xbox copy of THPS3.

@HardRockGamer Exploits like this is the main reason I believe why MS hasn't brought older CoD games to Gamepass yet. Even Black Ops 2 on console is a complete mess due to hackers.

My theory is that MS (especially now after all the lay offs) just doesnt have the man power and resources to fix these games and that's why they dont bring them to Gamepass but you know the public outcry since the Activision-Blizzard deal to bring these games to Gamepass wont stop. Honestly they should take a year off from modern CoD games and use those studios to fix the older games and then bring them to Gamepass, but what do I know?

Just grabbed a copy of Suikoden Collection. Been wanting this for awhile now. Was thinking of grabbing an expansion card for my Series S but those always seem to have a better price on Black Friday/Cyber Monday.

Theres so many but some of my favorite are

Jade Empire
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Pirates
Forza Horizon 1 ans 2
Double Dragon Neon
Guardian Heroes
Soul Calibur HD

@HardRockGamer Because Call of Duty has just become Fortnite's sloppy seconds. Such a disgrace for a once great series.

I cant wait. Seriously been wanting for this since the release of 1+2. I took the day off from work just so I can veg out on it like I did with the original.

I am not a big Halo fan to be honest. With that said my favorite memories would probably be playing splitscreen MP with my friends on the original Xbox when I was a young adult. I never owned and original Xbox during that Gen, had a PS2 and GameCube but my friend had an Xbox. We would take turns going to each other's houses playing Soul Calibur II on GameCube when we were at mine and Halo MP when we were at his.

Just chilling playing hours of Halo MP drinking Mountain Dew and eating fast food not a care in the world. It is one of my last memories of life before I had to start adulting lol.

Only if they bring the first one to Xbox.

Now that I am finally done with It Takes Two I will be moving on to some other games.

CoD: WWII ( Series X) Still my favorite CoD of all time. Will be doing some more of the Campaign today.

Madden 25 (Series X) Still doing my fourth year on the Denver Broncos. Currently we are 7 and 0.

Top Racer Collection (Series X) Picked this up on sale the other day one of my favorite racers on the SNES. Will be going through then first game this weekend.

Mortal Kombat 1 (Series X) Been in a Mortal Kombat mode lately so I figure I would play through the story of this one for the first time. I enjoyed 11's story so I am kinda of curious where this one goes.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Petitions are just a waste of time. Companies are going to do what they want to do no matter what, no petition is going to stop them.

I had my fun with it and felt I got my money's worth out of it.

Unless they are going to bring the first one to Xbox I will pass. I dont like playing game series starting in the middle of a series.

Typical corporate b.s. as always. I hope those that are affected find jobs really quick whether it's somewhere else in MS or with another company.

Even though I own it CoD: WWII would be my pick.

Not surprising how little we have seen of this game. People need to realize that

1) This is a different Rare then the one that created hits like GoldenEye, Battletoads, RC Pro Am, Perfect Dark etc.

2) The gaming industry is alot different then it was 30 - 40 years ago. If the game doesnt generate a targeted revenue be it sales, microtransactions, or whatever a company isnt going to just put money into it a lost cause. Gone are the days of Mega Man 2.

@Altaria_97 the only reason that they have a monopoly is because EA killed off their NBA series. Its not like the NFL with EA where no one can make an NFL Sim game it's that no one choose to make another basketball game.

Definitely excited for THPS 3+4. My favorite game in the series.

@Scrubchub CoD:WWII Doest require you to download Warzone or the CoD Headquarters or whatever its called. Just the game itself.

Hands down my favorite CoD game. Will definitely be firing it up after work today.

@NintendoByNature I believe it comes out on the 30th but I am not sure. I own it so I am unable to check myself.

@Link41x I enjoyed NSMB2 alot more then the other NSMB games. The coin idea was just brilliant and added some variety to the series. I wish they would port it to Switch.

@NintendoByNature CoD:WWII is probably my favorite campaign. Its just so epic and really nailed that WWII vibe.

Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse (Super NT) Haven't played this game since I was a kid. Picked it up last week at a retro convention so I will be playing through it this weekend.

Madden 25 (Series X) Continuing with my 4th year on the Broncos.

Fallout London (PC) Really enjoying this game alot. Looking forward to exploring some more this weekend.

Heroes of Might and Magic III (PC) Just about done with Restoration so hopefully will be moving on to the next expansion.

Not quite sure what I will play this weekend as I will be going to a gaming expo that my town will be hosting. They do have a free play arcade and consoles set up so who knows what I will play. I will also be looking to add to my retro collection.

The main reason I still have a 360 and an OG Xbox around. For games that were never made backwards compatible on the Series X/S.

The only problem with bringing games like Black Ops 2 to Gamepass is the fact that MP is a complete mess with hackers. I know that with on hack hackers can get access to all your personal info on your console and even delete and add games to you account. Before they make them GP worthy I am sure that MS would want Activision to fix that exploit which Activision just doest have the man power to do as they are focused on new CoD games.

Another game I would love to see come to console GP is WoW. I know that they couldnt bring the full retail game to console but how bout a version of Classic. I mean they just brought out the Anniversary Edition of Classic not that long ago on PC surely they could do that for console.

@DTfearTheBEARD OH nice, I will have to look for it. I dont have a PS5 and wasn't sure if they were going to do a last Gen version of it. Of course I guess I could get it on Steam and sync a PS4 controller to as well I suppose. Thanks for the info.

@DTfearTheBEARD That was my problem with it on Xbox. Originally playing the game on PS2 I just cant get the combos to work with an Xbox controller. But unless they have a PS4 version then I am just going to have to learn how to use the Xbox controller.

Well technically Bam isnt a new character. He was in the original. And at least this game make sense have a Ninja Turtle.as a character unlike Black Ops 6.

@Txinn Thanks. I take that as a compliment. He's a great superhero, one of personal favorites. Though I still need to see the new one, especially with Harrison Ford as Red Hulk.

@wildcat_kickz No it wasn't. MW 2019 was the beginning of the low point for CoD that still continues to this day. Safe spots for people to hide in, Skill base match making that punishes good players and rewards bad players. Skins that dont have any reasons or meaning to be in a military shooter.

Anyone who says MW2019 is a high point in anything needs to play the older CoD games.

@NintendoByNature Definitely worth playing the campaign especially if you like WWII settings. Its probably my favorite campaign to date. And with it on Gamepass what do you have to lose?

@Txinn Thank you Captain Obvious.

@Questionable_Duck Well yeah, but then Randy went shooting off his mouth and ended up pissing people off, do they had to do some damage control.

It's funny cause I was thinking of firing up CoD WWII and wondering how active the MP is. Pretty sure it will be active now.

Damn got me all excited when you said football then I saw it's a soccer game.
