BIG3

Less, of course.

Series X: BG3. Finally starting to get the hang on this game. Been playing blind for 25hrs but had no idea what I was doing. Started googling everything, going back if the rolls messed up and respec my character. Now Im killing everything and things are moving along, finally.
Soon wrapping up the basegame of Witcher 3 for the third time as well.
PS5 and Switch: Nothing.

First time xboxer here so its an A for me. Gamepass allowed me to play catch up with the classics Ive missed out on the first year, as well as play a bunch of other games I never would have touched. It has become my go-to console for online play and third parties and is thus the console I use the most. Took a glance at my wishlist and xbox have by far the highest number of games Im looking forward to. This generation Ive fallen in love with Halo, Gears, Forza, Flight Simulator, Starfield, Ghostwore Tokyo, Psychonauts 2 to mention some.

Im very excited for Avowed!

Had to go with Gears E Day.
I also thought Mixtape looked like a good time.

3 people are going to be very happy about the refund.

Whatever year this drops it will be my GOTY. Love me som Gears of War. Multiplayer and all.

@DJKingaling Pushsquare played on PC.

PS5: I'm on my 3rd playthrough of Stellar Blade. Trying to collect every outfit.
I also might start the Alan Wake 2 DLC.
Series X: Jumping between Witcher 3 (my comfort game) and Starfield. Having a blast testing different mods.
Switch Oled: Nothing.
Have a good weekend everybody!

The game Im the most hyped for right now. And I dont see any game topping it for me.

@dreadful like Stellar Blade right now.

I got the S and the X with extra HD space installed on both. Im good.
I might even skip the next gen on both Xbox and PS tbh because it doesnt really feel like a leap from the last one.
The next Nintendo is another story, Ill buy that on release.

This is gonna be a GOTY.

@GuyinPA75 everybody loves their drug dealer, no?

I don't see the problem here. When I downloaded it the game gave me 1000 credits. And if I don't want to use them on that quest I wont. Personally I'm saving it for something in the future.

I think it might have been the best presentation I have ever seen. So many games I wanted.

Never played CoD before but this looked rather good. Also love the time period it is placed in.

Im very excited for this DLC. When does the update drop though!

@user0 Its an animatiom style called stop motion.

Loving the look of this game.

I cant wait!!! My favourite series on Xbox. Surprised Coalition is doing this one before Gears 6 but I dont care. This will be glorious!

@LocalPenguin Saw you comment and damn it, we need an S-tier after this one. I was blown away by sooo much.

This is how you do a showcase. Stacks on stacks! I got 9 new games on my wish list. I think thats a new record for me.

Diablo IV. The newest season is pretty good. Gonna hit lvl100 for the first time.
Im also playing the new Alan Wake 2 DLC. And if I have time I'll hunt down some more outfits in Stellar Blade.

Lego Horizon, Alan Wake 2 DLC, Unknown 9, SF6 s2 for me.

Good update. Now if they would only fix the achievements.

Gf usually watch with me and guess which games I want. But shes not home so Ill be watching alone.

Yeah. Im hyped for this. Absolutely loved dragon age 1 and inquisition.

If someone makes a mod that lets me autowin combat then Ill be all over it. Im so done with long battles, especially when I lose and realize Ive spent a full evening making no process.

@BAMozzy Couldnt have said it better myself. I absolutely loved it.

Ill tune in to Summer Game Fest and Xbox Showcase. Always enjoyed watching these live rather than reading a summary afterwords. The missus usually watch with me trying to guess which games Ill be interested in. Good times.

Switch to unreal, get help from Coalition and or Ninja Theory, keep the gameplay. Bring a more meatier online presence at launch and make a campaign that doesn't end on a cliff hanger. Personally I think Infinite had a lot of great ideas and was an overall good game, but the online portion was weak at launch. It's awesome now though, and have been for the last year.

Every time Coalition's name comes up my hypemeter goes up.

PS5: Stellar Blade Bossrush mode and 3rd run to collect every outfit. I cant wait! Game is so good and I keep coming back even though I already platted it.

Recently finished: Hellblade 2. Incredible game. Really enjoyed all aspects off it except Senuas slow ass walking. Took me about 7hrs to finish without a guide. Will go back for the rest of the collectibles. Another GOTY contender for me.

Sidenote. I now wish a new Xenoblade game would drop this year so that I'd have one new "blade" exclusive game across my consoles fighting over GOTY. lol.
Have a good weekend everybody.

@Banjo- You can toggle it under accessibilities so she always move at the "faster" speed.

@OldGamer999 Disagree with you on that one. Found the game and story to be very enjoyable.

Finished the game just now. Absolutely loved it. My only gripe (seriously, I only have one) is that Senua walks too slowly. Nice that you can toggle "run" on so you dont have to hold the lb button but still, her fastest movements are too slow. Other than that, no complains! Graphic, music, audio, performance, story and acting are the high points. I dont understand the puzzle critisism. There werent a lot of them and never uniteresting to me (some could have been a bit harder though). Combat, though easy felt super intense and urgent. Absolutely loved the animation and fighting sequences.
For me this game is a 10/10 (like the first one). Might not win a GOTY but definetly deserve a nomination. Should win a bunch of awards for other stuff though, especially acting and graphics.

I would love some solid dates on games already revealed. An update on Contraband for example would be nice. But as far as brand new game reveals I'm ready for Gears 6 or Gears Tactics 2 more than anything.

I had no idea Infinite Wealth was that high. Loved the first Like A Dragon game so I might have to pick this up down the line, even though I think it's wack they put NG+ behind the DLC.

Played without headphones yesterday but thats because the game is really intense as is. Will play with headphones tonight and try not to become psychotic. Lol.

I'm absolutely blown away by the graphics and Melina Juergens perfomance is incredible. This game might not win a GOTY (deserves a nomination) but it definetly deserves some awards for graphics, animation, sound, music and actress performance.

Played the first hour. Color me intrigued. Looking forward to giving it a go!

I only order gamepass when a game im interested in drops on it and cancels immediatly.

On another note. I wish Xbox had a proper countdown for when a game launches like PS5 does.

@awp69 Ah. That makes sense. I usually go offline anyways about games I plan on playing until I got a playthrough done. Easier said than done sometimes. Lol.

@SodaPop6548 Review embargo lifting on launch day is usually a terrible sign. I hope thats not the case because the first one was really good imo.

@Lup Xbox is totally dropping the ball on marketing of this game. I think they are underestamating how hyped people who played the first one are. Maybe because the game is short? I dont know.

Got it preloaded and ready to go. I can't wait. Wish I could skip work tbh.

I bought the Series S because I couldnt get a hand on a PS5 and I really wanted to play Cyberpunk on launch. Lol.
Looking back now I dont regret it even though the game was a broken mess because I discovered so many great Xbox gems and franchises like Halo, Gears and Forza plus I played a ton of games on Gamepass I otherwise would have skipped.

Hellblade 2 for me! Might be a GOTY contender.
