Good day gang! How are we all?

I think there is enough interest to warrant keeping this club alive so let’s have a go shall we? Tell everyone you know, all are welcome. Please let me know if you would like to be on the taglist As this is a community project I encourage any and all feedback.

For the uninitiated, the premise is simple. The community votes for a game pooled from the game pass library each month and we all play that chosen game. Discussion and debate is encouraged but please endeavour to stay on topic as much as possible.

Keep suggestions/votes sub 10hrs please

Please [@] me directly with your votes and suggestions

Voting opens on the third weekend of the month, though feel free to add suggestions at your leisure

I’m only going to bring the archive from 2024 with us as it might open things up more for newcomers

Lastly, a massive thank you to @ralphdibny and @Balta666 for their tireless work keeping the previous iterations going. And to @FraserG who has championed the club for the longest time and I hope will continue to do so, if you’re willing?

@ZeD @Dydreamr @crippyd @Balta666 @NintendoByNature @Ricky-Spanish @Pastellioli @themightyant @Challenger-UK

Hello there and thank you for this @PeaceSalad.

I am going to add a vote to Road 96 (but I want to also say that as dusk falls is bloody good)

@PeaceSalad Nice work dude! Yes i'd love to still be tagged on it, and completely agree about going back to basics. Shorter games that more than one or two people might actually play. I just can't commit to longer games unless I was going to play them anyway.

Pop me on the list. Always good to see what you lovely lot are up to! My vote goes to NGBII - just looks awesome and I'd like to play it anyway. Would be cool to do it with the club!

@PeaceSalad I'm still here, although participation from me is sporadic due to life commitments and generally less Xbox time. Keep up the great work, though.

I would choose As dusk falls amazing story with so many choices and consequences. But because I have experienced that particular game a lot. I vote Ninja Gaiden Black 2. And yes it's going to kick my butt. Lol

Not sure about you fellas but I've been playing NG II. It's wild, that's for sure. I can't seem to lock on to any one target, and sometimes the camera gets in the way, but its solid action fun. The only thing I do wish it had was some sort of a witch time/ Bayonetta type dodge mechanic. I love Bayonetta, so this game is right up my alley as it's pretty much identical gameplay. You can change weapons out which is neat, upgrade them, and use some light magic as either defensive or offensive moves. So it's all very cool. The bosses are tough as nails though, so be prepared 🫠
