Backbone: Console

I just began my very first run of Gears 5 (which is awesome on Series X ! ), but as soon as I've finished it, I plan to dive into the Forgotten City. There is no way this game is just going under the backlog category, with all the others who are waiting.
I want to play this game right now !
Forgotten City is a big win. Looking forward to it.
I actually bought Forgotten City when it first released - definitely worth a revisit.
Played some bassmaster last night. I love fishing in real life but it's a big time suck and investment. I love that this and moonglow both came out. Going to spend hours peacefully fishing with some tunes on.
If you've recently played through Alan Wake Remastered and crave more, you really can't go wrong with American Nightmare. One of the best pieces standalone expansions in recent memory in my opinion
@FraserG Alan Wake's American Nightmare also came to PC Game Pass
Is Age of Empires coming to console gamepass at some point? Never played it but always wanted to try it out
I bought AWAN a couple months ago but haven't started it yet. That's okay though because it was paid for entirely with rewards points that were going to expire anyway.
@sirmrguitardude As none of the other installments have come to Xbox, I would assume that AoE IV will remain a PC exclusive.
@Link41x Thank you! The Game Pass for PC team had announced it was delayed, but then told everyone to ignore that message
Started the Forgotten City last night. first time in several years that i've had to tear myself away from a game to go to bed. Bethesda or whoever needs to hire these guys, give them a bigger budget and let them make something. Such a compelling game!
Forgotten City looks like a Skyrim clone
