Been looking forward to Monster Train 2, another great day one add. Metaphor, Symphonia and Crypt Custodian are all fantastic games. Nice adds!

@Neither_scene Rockstar would be increasing the prices. Not MS.

Indiana Jones is my favorite but that, South of Midnight, Avowed and Doom would all be at least a 9 for me. Great group of games!

For me, I was playing it then Expedition 33 took over. I’ll get back to it though.

I’m absolutely loving it so far. Expedition 33 is still my GoTY at this point (and one of my favorite games of all time). But this is a nice counterbalance when I just want to blow some ***** up. I actually like the changes to the combat. I thought Eternal was getting a bit too fast paced for me.

@Ricky-Spanish But their next game may be something completely different and since they said they’ll control it 100%, it probably will be a different IP that Sony will have no say in where it goes.

I still need to get back to the original. Too many games!

The funny thing is that it’s going to take me the rest of the year just to finish the bangers from the first six months!

As part of it’s earnings report today, Capcom said 90% of it’s game sales were now digital and it’s expected to increase even more this year.

As much as collectors love physical, I think its days are numbered.

What?!? You get a “Loading Screen”?!?! That doesn’t sound like a very good bonus.

Graphics look fantastic but not sold on the story yet (or lack thereof presented in the trailer at least).

Glad Little Kitty Big City is staying. Aside from the date, I thought it was gone for sure either it also being put on PS+ Extra this month.

Hoping it shows up at the June showcase with a fall release!

@Valhura Clearly you don’t understand a statement made in jest. That’s why there’s a big smiley face at the end of my comment.

Of course people have different tastes.

I can’t help it if my opinion is the right one. (Yes, that’s also sarcasm).

Those people who bounced off Clair Obscur have no taste! 😀

Some good games in there for PC. Wish they’d give away something for Xbox that isn’t already in GamePass!

It’s not like they didn’t have time to promote the game before the shadow drop and I had never heard of the game until the dev came out with this complaint. So they failed to make the game known to begin with.

Played Towerborne in the Xbox preview test ring. It’s pretty fun. Gives me a Castle Crashers vibe. Wasn’t happy to hear it was going to be F2P when it fully releases (this preview is likely paid). But apparently the only micro transactions will be for cosmetics. And maybe they’ll be perks for some of that. So I’ll give it a shot.

But hard for anything to pull me away from Clair Obscur right now!

I expected it to be good but being the dev’s first effort I thought it would be pretty rough. But, nope, it’s very well polished. Great graphics and atmosphere. And the soundtrack may be an all-timer for video games. Easy 10 from me.

And even though I’m playing on GamePass, I have no doubt that I’ll be buying it to own at some point.

They’re probably doing this just to make sure PlayStation gamers know it is coming to PS.

GamePass totally is enough for brand loyalty to me. It rocks and 2025 is its best year yet!

So no New Zealand trick…boooo!

It’s fantastic aside from some framerate dips when out in the open world (on a Series X). Looks beautiful and plays well. Just happy to have a modern version of Oblivion, which is my favorite ES game even over Skyrim.

Played for about an hour and am honestly pretty happy with the performance so far. Looks fantastic as well. Can’t wait to dig into it more!

Was surprised there was a live chat for the reveal on Push Square but not on Pure Xbox for a first party game.

Anyway, downloading!!!

Surprised that Push Square is doing a live chat for this but Pure Xbox isn’t even though it’s a first party game.

Need to get back to this. It’s a great game. Just too much to play!

Devs on X say they’re looking into it. It definitely was meant to be free but they set it up incorrectly.

@Kaloudz I’d say this is the best of the series but if Exodus bored you, not sure if this would be up your alley either.

@Kaloudz You should play it if you haven’t. Great game!

Really hope this is true and not just for MP. I would love a sequel to the phenomenal campaign in Titanfall 2.

I think it was part of the initial deal to buy Bungie that they would have some independence and still be multiplatform.

@Kaloudz Yeah, that’s the only reason I asked Nate is because I trust him. Would never do the same with Jez or 90% of the other “insiders”. They’ll come.

You quoted me! I’m famous!

I personally prefer OpenCritic and an 80 sounds perfectly fine. Looking forward to playing it!

@FraserG Booo! But at least it’s still coming….

@Coletrain LOL. I use that subreddit at times. Just checked out my claim to fame. Well, cool that it got some rumor news flowing I guess.

@themightyant Right I was being genuine when I said I was surprised they didn’t have anything on there. Wasn’t meant to be a slam at all.

And as others have mentioned, I think as far as MS that Halo probably should be as well as the game that really revolutionized shooters IMO.

Interesting that there’s no Sony first party games on the list.

@Coletrain I was actually surprised he responded to me but happy with his info. Hope he’s right!

Asked Nate the Hate about this on Twitter and he says they’re still coming to Xbox. Remake this year and Rebirth next year. I believe him as one of the most reliable insiders out there.

Hoping Commandos is good. Haven’t played something in that genre for quite a while so would be a refreshing change of pace.

@FraserG Do happen to know why Descenders Next wasn’t in the official announcement today and not on the Xbox Wire article? Is it getting delayed? Or now not coming to GamePass?

So they scrap paid DLC for one of the few games that was a huge success for them. Makes sense…

Towerborne is free to play so I’m guessing we’re just getting some perks with GamePass?

Voted for Prince of Persia before reading to the end of the list. I’d say it should absolutely be Tom Clancy because Ubisoft has ignored the IP treasure that is Splinter Cell. If they ain’t going to do anything with it, let someone else!

Enjoyed what I played from the beta and, remember, it’s 33 people all through match making so closer to an MMO. You don’t need 33 friends to play. 😀

Yeah, do we care?

Mullet Madjack is fantastic and can’t wait to have it on Xbox. Great addition!!!

Have had this on my wish list after playing the demo on PC. It’s a blast and really happy it’s coming to Xbox and, of course, GamePass.
