The day physical goes away is the day I stop buying new games. Yes they appear to be glorified installation discs but when done they can be sold and are often cheaper to buy. I got Street Fighter 6 on day 1 for £37. Digital would have been way higher.
I do like downloading games on sale, eg loads of lego titles in summer but physical must continue.
I sold DA Origins disc a while ago so downloading that right away as well as The Witcher 3 complete. I beat it on ps4 years ago but ill do it again at such a low price
Their refusal to release physical right away for the stupidest reason was why I refused to buy it. I have bought hundreds of games digitally but I have never paid more than £20 and that was for a game that cost far more on disc
This is great news. 4 and 6 combined are worth the cost. I just preordered the new version that comes to Switch in October as, like the castlevania collections, I want them on a handheld but these deserve to be on every gaming device that exists.
Rock Band 1 in 2 player for the first time since 2019, lego ninjago and assassin's Creed ezio collection again. I love the 360 era. Playing games from that era with their enhancements is still great fun
@NintendoByNature i've never liked zelda 2. but only played it on wii so no save states. maybe if i played it on switch with those, it'd be more enjoyable
A Plague Tale 2. I'm assuming it has a 2 year GamePass deadline so I'm aiming for having it at 1000G by then. I did buy my Series X for that game on the day before so I have no excuses. On Chapter 10. I definitely don't love this as much as the 1st one I played in 2020. It feels way too puzzle focused.
I've spent the last months replaying various lego games, gears series and borderlands 1 in local co-op and it's been such fun. It should never go away.
I've always been tempted by spyro 3. I played the first 2 on ps2 but never finished the series. It is really expensive on ebay so this is a great price too
X and S are awesome. My X mainly gets used for downloads, 360 disc games, and a few X games. The S is obviously all downloads but that's fine. I bought the X first with S as the bedroom console and both are incredible.
It is a real shame. Microsoft have done so much right this gen but I guess the disaster of the X1 launch that drove so many to ps4 isn't forgotten. Clearly a lot of people stuck with ps this time.
It is a shame. I was one of those but went back for the series x as I do believe it is the best console now but I guess we won't get a ps3 style turn around.
I hope so. My wife has a ps5 but I would love these to be on my xbox. And maybe SE will actually release Pixel Remaster on disc at a reasonable price or actually be sold in shops like any other game.

Will Coruscant still be 2 levels long and can Qui Gon easily beat Darth Maul?
This is a huge shock but I love it. I hope all ps1 bonuses are included

Pixel Remaster please
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 24-25)
@NintendoByNature I did that with Zelda 1 in 08. I'd definitely need save states to do it again though

Re: Talking Point: Is Local Co-Op On Xbox Still Important To You In 2024?

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 15-16)
Final Fantasy XV on ps4. Easily one of my least faves in the series but the plan is to beat it before starting the 7 remakes
Re: Xbox 'Cross-Gen Face-Off' Shows The Benefits Of Series S Ownership
X and S are awesome. My X mainly gets used for downloads, 360 disc games, and a few X games. The S is obviously all downloads but that's fine. I bought the X first with S as the bedroom console and both are incredible.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 8-9)
After not gaming on it since October, I finally returned to my ps4. Final fantasy 15 will do before I start ff7.1 on ps5.
Maybe yoshi Island on gba as well.

Re: Talking Point: In Your Opinion, What Made The Xbox 360 Era So Incredible?
I've been a gamer since 92 and the 360 is the only generation where I went to a midnight launch, for Gears 3 in 2011. What an experience that was

Lost Odyssey. Although I hated the Treasure Trove achievement.

I played this on 360. If this has the same achievement list but of the x1 version, it'll be good to do it again
Re: Rockstar Announces New $50 Port Of Red Dead Redemption, But Xbox Doesn't Need It
I just got the goty on 360 new and sealed for 30 pounds on ebay. I'm very happy with that. I played it in 2011 and am keen for a replay.
If I'd never played it and only had a ps4, I'd be mad at the price too.

Pokemon Y on 3ds, GTA 5 on XSX, Lego LotR on 360, Wario Land 1 on Gameboy.
