Whelp, I guess I should play Danganronpa this week. I imagine the sequels will be leaving shortly after as well making them all a 1-year Game Pass deal.

Haven’t had a chance to try it yet with how busy work has been trying to get things closed before the holidays, plus Christmas parties everyday this weekend. I’ll probably be playing it during my break between Christmas and New Years.

I have heard it’s excellent. Most of the negative reviews I saw seemed to just hate the immature and silly Rick and Morty style humor, but I’m all for it.

As a couple others said, only if they have good content to show us. With the lack of big releases this year a direct would be pretty bare.

Fair review but I’m still going to give it a go since I have a really immature and dumb sense of humor. It’s just interesting to see how mixed reviews have been for this title.

@FreqMode I think I gained well over $100 in rewards in about 4-5 months and I just do the phone stuff while I’m on the toilet lol. I only do the Xbox stuff at the beginning of each month when they have these 2000+ point bonuses and even then it takes like 5 minutes. Totally worth.

I’m expecting nothing and honestly just hoping for some release dates for games we already know about.

Whelp, good thing I just did the 3 years of Gamepass for ~$150 trick the other day. No worrying about these prices for a while.

Gone for the weekend visiting family but Sunday night I want get cozy and play some Pokémon and MW2.

I got Far Cry 6 for $10 on Black Friday and now they want $60 (or $30 if you factor in a free game that you already wanted).

Dragon Quest has been one of those games I want to play but keep throwing in the back of my backlog. I guess it doesn’t matter much that it’s leaving because I probably won’t get around to playing it for another year or so lol.

Just bought this a little over a month ago and still haven’t gotten around to playing it. Guess I don’t need to have the disc in my system when I go to play it now lol.

Despite how good Insurgency Sandstorm looks, I’m probs my just going to keep playing MW2. I know, I’m basic lol.

I do want to try the trial for NFS Unbound, though. It looks like a fun enough arcade racer.

It was $29 physically on Walmart and I think even Amazon. Over 50% off within weeks. That’s crazy.

That’s awesome. I’m picking up 2K23 for Series X next week when it drops to $35ish but I can get a head start this weekend. Thanks for the heads up!

I hoped they would re-release the Halo Series X as that was pretty much impossible to get unless you were using bots or sitting on twitter all day waiting for alerts. Never happened, sadly, and I just use the standard black one I was able to pick up. Whatever the next special edition is, keep making them for a bit longer so people can purchase them lol.

Excited for High on Life. Everything I’ve seen if it looks like silly fun.

Don’t let nearly 10 year old hardware push you back, refocus your attention and optimizations on local multiplayer, and stop putting most of your resources into the “free service” online which is still worse than previous titles.

Interesting to see all the mixed reviews. After reading a couple and watching some gameplay, I’ll get it but I’m going to wait until I can snag it for $30 or so. Seems fun, though.

Sweet to hear! It’s been on my backlog of games to play so hopefully this is out soon. Would love a native version for my Series X!

Pretty bad imo. Glad if other find them enjoyable, of course. But it seems like the bulk agrees this is just super weak.

Need for Speed lost its touch for a while, but Heat and Hot Pursuit Remastered we’re both excellent imo. I’m hoping for this new title to be similar to them or the older titles.

I was hoping for a bit more considering we’re getting less games and no more legacy titles. PS Plus games still seem a lot stronger imo. I’ll check out Windbound but neither title is really doing much for me.

If anyone has played or heard good things about these two titles, please let me know. These are the first times I’ve heard of them.

I haven’t play Slime Rancher 1 and it’s about to leave gamepass. Will I be missing anything by jumping right into 2?

Anyone here know if I’ll be missing anything if I play Slime Rancher 2 without playing the first?

I was busy yesterday and didn’t see this list… and wow, that’s a really solid lineup. I’m definitely checking out Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Deathloop, and Ni No Kuni! And with Fall Guys season 2 just starting as well… I’m gonna be really busy.

This is awesome. Older events and returning music… I’m definitely redownloading the game next month.

Wait… the Switch version won’t support local-multiplayer? Where was this ever confirmed? That’s the main selling point of the game.

Glad to see not just the typical on-court adjustments, but also a few new modes I’ll actually play like Jordan Challenge and the MyNBA Eras. I have 2k22 on my Switch (I didn’t have a Series X then) so I think I’ll pick this up once it goes to ~$30 around Black Friday.

I’ve been using energy saver since day 1 since I have no interest in streaming my games. I just also set auto-shutdown to 4 hours for when I’m downloading a big game (remember to turn the controller off as well).

Come on. Bug Fables and Skate Bird we’re next in my to-play list. Too many good games have been leaving recently and it’s starting to make my gamepass feel kinda worthless for my needs.

Believe it or not I’ve never played a Metal Gear game. I enjoyed Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory so I think there’s a good chance I’d love this series. Hopefully this rumor is true and it releases physically, would be a great way to jump in.

I have Portal 2 on Steam but I guess it doesn’t hurt having it on my Xbox to play on the TV. Otherwise… I’m pretty underwhelmed. Good thing I never expect anything from Game with Gold.

I picked Fable but Perfect Dark was close competition. I’m pretty hyped for both.

I’m looking forward to Grid Legends and Slime Rancher 2. Solid month for me.

People hate it because it’s just a marketing buzz word. People don’t care and just want to play some fun games.

Might snag Project Cars 2 since I enjoy racing games and it’s going to be delisted soon. Just gotta decide if I should get it for PC or my Series X.

I loved Pac-Man World 2 on my GameCube back when I was a kid but never played the original. I’m not expecting a ton of content, just a casual fun 3D platformer. Glad it’s only $30. Good review, seems very fun for my wants. I’ll pick it up this weekend.

Was holding out for this to get cheaper. Then it was free for PC on Prime Day. Now it’s on GamePass. Dope.

I was never interested… I only clicked this article because I like participating in polls lol.

Interesting to see such mixed review scores. I didn’t have any interest in this title but was keeping an eye out on reviews in case it ended up being a surprise hit.

I have a lot of other open world city games on my backlog to keep me busy. The Watch Dogs Trilogy, the GTA Trilogy (picked it up on sale after the patches since I’ve never played the originals), and Cyberpunk 2077.

I actually wasn’t expecting this to drop so soon. Seems cool, but I need to see more gameplay and features.

Clearly it’s a new Madagascar title.

Memes aside, I’d just hope it’s Crash, Spyro, or Tony Hawk. I loved all the recent titles from those franchises and want to keep seeing them release.

Damn. Hades was on my to-play list and I’ve been playing NBA 2K22 since I thought it would be safe until next year’s version gets added. Guess that was just for marketing. I’ll just keep playing my Switch version of 2K, I suppose.

Definitely want to try it but it’s never been a game I’ve been dying to play. If I was, I would have just gotten it on Steam or something. Still think it looks fun so hopefully it hits GamePass.

@redd214 Sadly not Blizzard Mountain. I really want to play through that DLC pack but the only option at this point is to torrent it. I’d be more than happy to give Microsoft my money for it but licensing stuff and digital-only content don’t really offer any other option.

They’re both great options. If you just wanna play games and don’t want to drop $500, the S is a great deal. But for those that want physical games and want the best visuals/performance possible, the X is awesome. Maybe it’s easier for me to say that since all I have is a Series X, but both seem like great options.

Turbo Gold Racing for me. The concept sounds fun.

I got the Borderlands Legendary Collection with my Microsoft rewards points. But yeah, the majority of the games on sale are usually discounted at these prices sometime each month.

Actually a decent lineup. Looking forward to trying Saints Row 2 and Calico.

My guess it’s an error but hopefully it’s legit. The game has been on sale for like $12-15 recently so it’s not that unlikely despite it being less than a year old. Fingers crossed.
