Re: Xbox Exec Wants Fans To Keep Developer Direct Expectations In Check

Balta666

@themightyant you're correct but we are far from getting third party AAA games day one on the system and these type of deals are the best we can get. I am particularly not interested in Monster Hunter but I played games like Jedi fallen order, guardians of the Galaxy or fenyx rising first on Gamepass and I am hoping they keep on coming at a regular pace as I feel most games are not worth the day one pricetag.

Re: Talking Point: What's The Most Underrated Xbox Game Of 2022?

Balta666

@Nintendo4Sonic welcome to the community! I do love Gamepass and play a lot of games this way but since I got a series X mid 2021 I bought 46 physical games across all Xbox generations (altough not many recent released and some are games I played first on GP and then later added to the physical collection)

Re: Poll: How Many Xbox Games Have You Actually Bought This Year?

Balta666

I said 16-20 but it may be above 20 in the end. Almost all of them physical as I like to collect (at least 5 are of games I adored playing on GP and got the physical copy at a good price). Also I believe Crisis Core is the only new game released, with elden ring as a close call but on the used market after a couple of months

Re: The Best Games On Xbox Game Pass (November 2022)

I finished or played for a good chunck (at least 5/10h until I retired them) 22 out of those 75 although some of them I completed on other systems prior (for instance desde cells, dragon quest or Skyrim). Let's see If the number evolves with time

Re: Soapbox: Tomb Raider Deserves A 'Resident Evil-Style' Remake

Balta666

I am not the biggest fan of the anniversary edition (and I actually still enjoy the OG one in terms of Gameplay). On the other hand I love the reboot series too (less the third one) and for me getting a new game in that series that works as a sort of remake of the original could do the trick

Re: Warner Bros Reveals Why Gotham Knights Will Be 30FPS On Xbox Series X|S

This game gets worse every minutes it gets closer to release. As busy as it is this holiday season it will bomb massively for sure.

And when devs tell me i am stealing from them because 60$ in 2000 is equivalent to 90$ in 2020 and ignore that in 2000 100% of the games were physical with included cost of manufacturing, transport and third party sellers while now it is 80%+ digital where all that is profit...

Re: Review: Deathloop - Arkane's Best Game Finally Arrives On Xbox

Balta666

I will give it a try next month after coming back from holidays. Before playing I have mixed feelings as I definitely saved scumm my way through Dishonored and I suck at FPS on console so not sure how manageable the roguelite difficulty will be. Also this will be 100% an offline play for me.

Re: Talking Point: Can You Remember The First Game You Ever Completed?

Balta666

It is hard to say as I remember Sonic took me a lot of time to beat (at end of the first day I could not beat even the first level and I struggled a for a long time on the boss of area 4, one day during christmas I passed it and managed to finish the game as everything else was fine) but probably the game I finished first was tazmania also on mega drive (a game I realized recently is known as one of the worst game on the system with terrible gameplay but I don't remember it like that and quite liked it)
