@MagicCat that's ... erm ... Yeah why didn't I think of that haha

Fully understand that this is a silly reason to not play something, but I was interested in getting this and going for the full achievements score, however I've read there's one achievement in particular (an online play related once unsurprisingly) which is supposed to be a real pain. Relying on multiple people completed more than one multi series race I believe with no one dropping out

@Bruvas I'm a big fan of Limmy's twitch streams. He's been playing it all week, looked fantastic so I've downloaded it on gamepass now !

@BlackMayge good luck pal hope it all goes well. The day flew by for me in an absolute blur, too much to take in at the time! Enjoy it !

@everynowandben dude I have to admit Duke Nukem Forever is one of my guiltiest pleasures. The guiltiest maybe haha I just love it and I don't know why

It looks really good ! Though I can't help but be a bit suspicious over what the final product will turn out like. I had similar vibes from Stalker 2 also

Has to be Cyber Shadow for me.

Massively caught me by surprise, not usually my type of game, however 25 hours and a 1000+ deaths says otherwise!

Would heartily recommend it and another excellent advert for gamepass. It might be an oft-repeated sentence now but it really has given me an opportunity to try things I wouldn't normally do.

@thenewguy this is it, no matter how stable it runs, it can't hide how fundamentally average the structure and systems are. Such wasted potential for a fantastic setting

Started playing Dark Alliance, finished the first mission. Saw the faults but in truth didn't feel like it was that horrid.

But anyway, it's now deleted, my gaming time is limited as it is and I'm certainly not going to play through something which I find bang average

In truth, I'm really really struggling for something to get stuck into

@everynowandben really interesting how people view MD, I loved HR but couldn't get into the sequel.

I don't think the opening in Dubai is the best (thought the sandstorm closing in is fantastic) but I think more than that, hearing the ending is kinda set up for a sequel which is never going to arrive has made me think 'what's the point'

I'm in a gaming rut. I'll either play something I've played before for some comfort gaming or look for a new single player experience, which admittedly doesn't narrow it down !

Fortunately we're still in the group stages of the Euro's so there's plenty to keep me occupied.

Oh, and its Hell in a Cell Sunday night:)

Not sure about anyone else but after finishing a game I normally have to have a little break before getting into something else.

So anyway, immortals fenyx rising is the one I've gone for, love it, really is comfort gaming at its finest. I guess the writing is a bit Marmite but I love the narration by zeus !

@Link41x your update is the one I look forward to each week haha

Resident Evil 4 complete finally. Absolute brilliant game, despite the initial shock of the control scheme which took some time to adjust to, I do believe it is an absolute master class in design, pacing and set piece variety.

The story is some nonsense though haha

Had a break for a couple of days before deciding what I'm jumping into next, strangely I've gone with Dante's Inferno. I'm not sure if it will stick but if not , that's ok !

RESIDENT EVIL 4 !

No I've never played it before and yes, what the heck have I been thinking.

It really is a special game, even now, several years after its release, it more than holds up in all areas. There's never a dull moment , inventive set piece after set piece. Just making my way though the castle now and the intensity is really cranking up

Resident Evil 4 ! Never played it before (sacrilege I know) and I've gone from thinking what the hell is this to hell yeah what a game. Really is something special this and enjoying every minute

A real gaming funk for me at the minute! Started GTA5 again as I don't fancy anything at all at the moment and haven't played since it first came out back in 1989. Its still an incredible gaming world, however wondering if I might be better playing through 4 again as I'm only really after the story.

Aside from that, for some reason, I've a real itch to give Ghost Recon Breakpouht for some reason and I've no idea why!

Forza Horizon 4 was the first game I played when I got one One X, enjoyed it until I realised it made no difference whether you win or lose !

Been forcing myself to get through Cyberpunk this until I just thought 'what the hell am I doing' haha. So left it and about to start Resi 7 this evening

@carlos82 I get such bad OCD about these things though haha doesn't feel right to start on a 7, I do have RE1 on the hard drive too ...

Downloading as we speak based on this write up! Always been put off the Resi games due to feeling like I wouldn't know where to start with the story, but reading this has given me the push I needed

A bit lost with what to play at the minute, been back dabbling with Warzone when I've not fancied getting into anything.

I do have immortals, batman arkham asylum and outriders all begging for my attention.

I don't really tend to buy games on launh day so I'm really excited to download and play along with everyone else ! Nice to be part of the current discussion for a change

Finally...FINALLY, finished Cyber Shadow (25 hours and 1000+ deaths later I should add) and what a game. The first of its kind I've really played tbh as hard to believe as that may sound

Now onto Immortals Fenix Rising as I fancied something a little more relaxed. I'm not usually one for open worlders - particularly the ubisoft ones- but this is really charming and definitely caught me by surprise. As someone who really really didn't get the hype behind BOTW I was a little hesitant as the majority of the reviews seemed to be a straight comparison and focused on all the ways they felt it lacked compared to BOTW , however I'm enjoying it more !

I mean, I know there's plenty of controversy around this and it may not be in the best taste, but I think that looks damn good

@playthedangame FISSION MAILED

Still Cyber Shadow , 22 hours in now and I'm just on the section before the final boss battle. Ready to start something else now and I've thought of quitting but no, the mission continues ! Really enjoyable though!

Ninja Gaiden Black or Fallout 76 lined up next

Actually just purchased a copy of Ninja Gaiden Black to play via BC on my One X, purely on the announcement of this trilogy pack.

Looking at the comments regarding the announcement the consensus seemed to be the Sigma versions are inferior so having never played any, it seems that Black is the place to start!

What a service this is at the moment. Now if only I can find a series X !

Nice to see Wolfenstein getting a decent share of the votes. One of my all time favorite shooters with one of the most off the wall stories in gaming !

"Now, I'm not saying it was the aliens...but it was the F#£#ing Aliens man" Ahh Super Spesh

Cyber Shadow and only Cyber Shadow. Let me tell you, finishing this game has become an obsession. Its the first 2D action platformer I've ever really gotten into and its definitely been one of my most enjoyable gaming experiences in a long time!

I'm 19 hours in so far into a game I thought I would finish in a couple of hours but in no way was I prepared for the difficulty !

Thank God for Gamepass as without it there's no way i would have given it a chance. I feel like its opened my eyes to a whole different genre of games, my eyes are now on The Messenger & Hollow Knight next for sure

Serious question. How the hell do I get into destiny, isn’t the campaign from 2 being removed soon ??

F**K YEAHHHHH as someone who’s been aching to get involved with destiny and not knowing where to start , this is fantastic

Finally got myself mentally ready to get stuck into Red Dead 2. Completed a couple of missions, still in the snow. Enjoying it so far but also very aware it’s likely to be a huge time sink if I’m going to fully commit

Indiana Jones and the Emperors Tomb. Highly, highly recommended. It looks great on the X with the upscaling. Just a really fun, smartly paced adventure. Hoping to have that boxed off this weekend

After that it’s either the original Splinter Cell or I finally start my run through of Halo 1 to 5. Just need to work out where I fit ODST and Reach into it

Jeez, easy with the rally games ! It was V-Rally last month !

Splashed out on a One X to play .... Duke Nukem Forever ... what can I say, it’s a guilty pleasure

Hi guys ! First post, recently picked up an One X and so impressed with it, had a 360 back in the day and switched to a PS4 but felt the urge to switch back again

Anyway, GamePass is fantastic, but I’m struggling guys I need some advice. I made the mistake of getting download happy and ended up playing 10 minutes of 12 games and not getting anywhere in any ! Any tips for staying focused ?

Currently playing the Euro 2020 add on for PES. Playing as Hungary on SuperStar difficulty, so far haven’t made it past the group stage but that’s the challenge !

Also picked up Destiny: The Taken King to get a feel for how it plays and try pick up some of the backstory. I know I’m several years to late but enjoying that too. Only playing up to a point where I feel I’ve got enough of a handle on it to move onto Destiny 2. Hopefully can jump into it with a few of you guys when the time comes !

What else ... well a few stuff, got Kingdom Come Deliverance installed and may give that a go.

Forza Horizon 4 also came with the bundle I bought, and maaaan. What a disappointment, first couple of hours I loved it, absolutely loved it, looked fantastic, so many events, handled well ... and then ... I realised it doesn’t actually matter where you finish in the races, it’s more about the experience rather than the competitiveness and I dunno, I just lost all enthusiasm for it after that

ANYWAY !! I’ve rambled on a bit but looking forward to chatting with you all
