Balta666

I played it on game pass PC last year and it is a fantastic game, probably my third favourite from kojima.

In terms of hardware I am really happy with the series X. However I joined the Xbox ecosystem this gen because I believed it was making the right moves against playstation and would make a move forward on the market and clearly that did not happen. Most likely Xbox will go full digital next gen and I will move on to other pastures (apart from the many many Xbox games I bought this gen)

Since I have the Xbox I tend to buy third parties on it (for the GS hahaha) along as they are released for the system... Which actually it does not happen quite some times as I play a lot of JRPGs (for example star ocean last year and most likely Ys x soon)

Obviously playing Metaphor!

My copy was just cancelled as it appears no copies have arrived in Portugal 😭😭 (even PS5 copies look quite sparce)

@Gabrielmpf yah, I would like to support pure Xbox but the prices are nearly twice what you can find in other stores

@TheGiraffe I obviously know the meaning of the 666 😅

Although Star field is my favourite games from last year this DLC was already a bit hard to swallow as I am not into horror... Then I tend to not buy dlc in the first place (or wait for a sale) as I find that 99% of them are highly overpriced.

@fraserg just a correction as the game is the sequel actually

Good to see these coming to Xbox

@RBRTMNZ couldn't agree more! Prince of Persia will most likely be my goat 2024

Although I currently have ultimate I only buy from third parties at discount and always have auto-renewal turned off

PlayStation lost their goddamm minds and I seriously hope this sell two units max...if they want to sell better GPUs mid-gen and be PC-like at most start selling that part modular for 300$ instead...
Also 800€ with no disk drive for the inthusiast crowd (which are the ones buying physical media)... Just 😂

@themcnoisy it is all in the power of the votes

@Decimateh not even kid about that 😂

Like many I really cannot stand Ubisoft open world games (gimme another Rayman please 🥺)

So another Ubisoft open world game

Most likely is a no for me as I never enjoyed a open world Ubi game both from gameplay and narrative. Will wait to see if it is somehow different but not raising my expectations by much lol

I do like them and I always have it as the game it is being played

Not really like GTA as there aren't a lot of reasons to explore (and is chapter based). The OG version on PC is in my top10 of all time and although I am not very keen on the changes these version made it is still a solid entry.

Really happy for them! Even more in the kind of screwed environment gaming dev is atm.

I am still playing Blue dragon (midway through second disk) but also bought Steamworld Heist 2 as the first one is easily my favourite Steamworld game.

Great games! Play them fully on Switch already but may give them a go at some point for some gamerscore baby!!

I have started Blue Dragon yesterday so that will be my gaming for the next few weeks

That's the problem with remastering games that are already available on the current market places and with no major improvements...

@InterceptorAlpha I am playing live and reloaded for the first time and I find the censoring really funny as you can still hear the f..cks and whatnot behind the bips

Not that hyped tbf. The decision to make it first person is quite the turn off... And everything I saw looked fairly bland. Now that I quit the auto-renewal for GP I am not this os the one that will make me come back for the month

It is and will be a mess. I have unsubscribed from Ultimate. Since I bought my first Xbox system 3 years ago I bought nearly 200 games (50/50 physical and digital) so now I will start playing those more often

I have been subscribed to GPU since I bought the series X in 2021 but I am now done with it. Unsubscribed first thing this morning

As a nearly 40 years old with no kids I now play more than ever (well not at my peak this year because I have a little less home time since moved jobs...). I only played a couple of games a year since late 90s until 2017 and last year I finished nearly 50 games.

Gears of War: Judgement and SMT V: Vengeance

Will pick up my copy tomorrow!

@Lup for me the first impact was that the art style is a tad too cartoonish for the series.

Fantastic show. The only complain from my part is no release dates for the biggest releases of 2024. B overall

@THE_VITTLER the issue for me was which one to start. I would prefer for them to choose one for me.

@GamingFan4Lyf although I have played for 2-3h I had a similar experience. There are lot of areas and it looks like you can start wherever you want which is not very beginner friendly. The way FF XIV deals with the main story quests works much better

No gaming for me this weekend. A friend of mine, producer of wine, has arranged a festival in his hometown and I am going for a 1000km roadtrip

Played it last year for the first time and already knew about "the lie". Also played it with brightness to the max as I am w bit of a scaredy cat. Regardless of that I have enjoyed my time with it (8/10)

I think this is looking at it from the wrong side. The way I see it is marketing to try more people to give it a chance after the mess it was the next two years after a great launch.

Good Luck with that! And I mean it (because they will need a lot of it to succeed 😜)

I am out of it it does

FFS... This generation I got my first Xbox system because I thought they fixed the problems of the past, game pass was The Deal and on top of backwards compatibility they were the most user friendly of the main manufacturers. Now I am pretty sure this will be my last Xbox system (even though I love it) because I don't trust anymore on its leadership and obviously mismanagement, either because they release games that are clearly undercooked or not going in the right direction and also closing studios that release good games from markets they want to get a foot on... This is just crazy.
This time I have to say it, Phill Spencer and Matt Booty are part of the problem and not the solution!!

@Yousef- @Bullspit760 same for you guys. In case you want to join the club on a regular basis I can added you to the tag list so you know when to vote and whatnot. Cheers

@Ricky-Spanish done! You can find the topic in the forum section or by using the link above. Cheers

@Ricky-Spanish cool, let me know if you want to be tagged to the group list so you know when to vote for next month's game!

I will maybe check it to see if my bugged side quests are now fixed but I have done all other quests I could find so I will be back deeper when dlc comes out (not really into Ng+)

@BAMozzy I am now replaying for the "n" time Rise and the reason for me that the first entry is the best is because it has almost no open world. You are directed to an area and that is it (unless you want to get all items). With each new game the amount of side quests and collectables increased.

@Lup imo it is also the best of them but I know many prefer Rise

This game is not good, it is BLOODY FANTASTIC!!! And if you have not played yet what are you doing with your life

It is still strange to me to read "now, 27 years later... Confront the secret left in 1995!?!?!"

I really like the LiS so this goes on the wishlist (although I most likely won't fork 70€ for it)
