Unfortunately I’m not really impressed with this one. Love Battletoads back in the day and enjoyed playing the games on Rare Replay but I can’t really get into this. I’ll wait for a review but I’m gonna have to stick with Streets of Rage 4 here.
@Gamer83 Nintendo Life gave this a 9 as well. But regardless what review this got this was always a Day 1 purchase for me. SOR2 is one of my favorite games too, so I’m glad a fourth game was possible. I’ll probably end up buying this on Xbox One as well.
Darn, I'm gonna miss this site. Along with PushSquare and NintendoLife this was one of my main sites to visit. I barely check out ign now. Thanks Ken and the rest of the staff on Pure Xbox for all the articles. If you guys ever make a new Xbox site, you better believe I'll show up.
The main guy sure likes to talk a lot doesn't he? Not really digging the rock and roll theme here either. The game play does look nice and it's something I can get into. Still look forward to this.

Re: Street Fighter 6 Closed Beta Arrives This October For Xbox Series X|S
Street Fighter 6 is looking really good. Capcom definitely learned it’s lesson from 5.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 3-4)
I managed to get a physical copy of Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 on Amazon for around 10 bucks. So I’ll be playing that along with Multiversus.
Re: 'Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma' Marks Franchise's 2nd Outing On Xbox
The 3rd game in the series. I played them back on the DS/3DS days. Honestly I think this one is the worst out of the 3 but it’s still good.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 27-28)
Multiversus, I haven’t been able to play it all week. But I’ll have some time now.
Re: Poll: Are You Planning On Picking Up Saints Row?
After this review and other mixed receptions, definitely made me hold off on it. Maybe at a price drop. Or better yet, if it ever comes to Game Pass.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 20-21)
Multiversus and I bought Dragon Dogma on a nice sell so I may give that a go.

Re: You Can Now Pre-Install Battletoads With Xbox Game Pass

Re: Review: Streets Of Rage 4 - The Best Entry In A Legendary Franchise
