Most new games disappoint. So no surprises here. Embargo being lifted on release date was a huge red flag. Overall games and movies have declined in quality over the last few years. We rarely get anything good now.
Wow lol, if this lawsuit happens then surely they'll be a huge delay in the acquisition until the lawsuit is actually resolved or in worse case acquisition just doesn't go through
You get what you pay for, there's no surprises. A game that developers have spent years and made with millions of dollars isn't going to go on Game Pass day 1 (unless first party). That's why Callisto Protocol is not on gamepass day 1 either is Hogwarts Legacy or Resident Evil 4 Remake. The developers of those games know that they are going to sell in the millions because they will be great games.
Just finished chapter 1 of Plague Tale Requiem. Game is promising so this might be my GOTY by the time I finish apart from that As Dusk Falls was good, TMNT Shredders Revenge, Midnight Fight Express and Prodeus get honorable mention. Terrible year for gaming overall. God of War Ragnarok saved it tbf.
These adaptions always End up being bad. The Witcher on Netflix sucks Resident Evil on Netflix was shockingly bad Halo on paramount was a complete disaster Not a single adaption that's actually been good.
Back in 2018 i bought Black Ops 4. Back then I would game on weekends, every weekend like Friday evening or Saturday morning, when I'd turn the PS4 on, there would be an update, those updates were usually huge too and would take forever to download. It was that game that basically made me quit online gaming. It was absolutely ridiculous, constantly updating. In the end I spent more time updating then actually playing the game
I'm struggling to finish Prodeus which I've played for about 3 hours and suppose to be only 6 hours long. I find that most games get repetitive and boring after the first 2-3 hours unless they have extremely fun Gameplay. I can't imagine playing a turn based game for a 100+ hours. I tried playing Yakuza Like A Dragon and after about 18 hours I gave up because it got boring.
Why do people think Sony or Microsoft care about gamers? Are they your relatives that they are going to care? They are a business. They care about making money, profit. That's it. That's where it starts and ends.
"They are not xbox games" looool what???? Then why are they playable on Xbox???? It's a game that has been developed using Xbox dev kit, it's using code that only Xbox can interpret, if you put that disc in Playstation it won't work. So it is an xbox game.
I recently finished Inside and The Walking Dead A New Frontier. I'm currently playing You Suck At Parking which might just be the most frustrating game ever.
Still got Tinykin and Prodeus to play afterwards. Game pass has been awesome with the smaller titles lately

Re: Review: The Callisto Protocol - An Uneven Spiritual Successor To Dead Space
@hypnotoad I think both remakes will be fantastic, especially RE4 mainly because the originals were such great games.

Re: Ubisoft Shares An Early Look At The Upcoming Splinter Cell Remake
Gaming has been reduced to remakes and live service games. The 360/Wii/PS3 generation will forever be the greatest.
Re: Review: Somerville (Xbox Series X|S) An Engaging Sci-Fi Story Let Down By Dull Gameplay
No surprises here. Limbo and Inside were definitely not for me.

Re: Gears Of War Is Coming To The Big Screen With Pair Of Netflix Projects
These adaptions always End up being bad.
The Witcher on Netflix sucks
Resident Evil on Netflix was shockingly bad

Re: Xbox Exec 'Looking Forward' To Playing PS Exclusive God Of War Ragnarok
This is the reason why Xbox will never surpass Playstation in market share. Sony 1st Party games are nothing short of master pieces.
Re: Xbox Game Pass Growth Slower Than Expected After Microsoft Sets High Targets
@Dezzy70 do you spend your entire day checking Playstation and Xbox stock?
Re: Soapbox: Tomb Raider Deserves A 'Resident Evil-Style' Remake
No because the Reboot games (the first two) are very good. Rather Studios invested in new IP then remakes.
Re: Talking Point: What November 2022 Xbox Games With Gold Do You Want?
Gotham Knights

Re: Resident Evil 4 Remake Looks Absolutely Epic In New Gameplay Footage
Looks promising
Re: Xbox Exclusive 'Avowed' Sees Early Screenshot Appear Online
Some Gameplay would be nice, difficult to judge anything of a X years old screenshot. For all we know it's completely changed.
Re: Gotham Knights Divides Critics, Lots Of Different Review Scores
Based on ign and gamespot reviews the game sounds terrible.
Re: Silent Hill 2 Remake Confirmed, But It's A Timed PlayStation Exclusive
It's by Bloober Team, Playstation can keep as a forever exclusive
Re: Call Of Duty Will Be 'Restricted' On Xbox Game Pass, Confirms Microsoft
@Titntin absolutely 100%

Re: Review: A Plague Tale: Requiem - An Incredible AAA Adventure On Xbox Game Pass
No surprises here.
Re: Review: Persona 5 Royal - One Of The Greatest JRPGs Of All Time Hits Xbox Game Pass
Not a fan of turn based combat and 130 hrs on 1 game is way too much.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 8-9)
Prodeus & You Suck At Parking
Re: PlatinumGames Explains Why Its New Releases Never Come To Xbox Anymore
Xbox is hardly missing much
Re: Xbox Argues With UK Regulator Over Activision Blizzard Deal
Sony can do no wrong? Am I right?
Re: Temple Runner 'Phantom Abyss' Leaps To Xbox Game Pass Next Week
Nice surprise
Re: Need For Speed Unbound Gameplay Reveal Shows In-Depth Customization
Probably the best art style in a racing game in a while
Re: PlatinumGames Would Still Be 'Very Happy' To Work With Xbox On Scalebound
No they are not even a good developer and are clearly desperate. No Way should Xbox go down this route again.
Re: Scorn Is Now Ready To Pre-Install With Xbox Game Pass
Some previews are out and they say exactly how I thought this game would be. "Boring puzzle game with no talking and hardly any combat".
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Congratulates PlayStation Studio On Landmark Anniversary
Sony should congratulate Xbox on getting Activision deal approved in Brazil and Saudi Arabia
Re: Xbox Activision Blizzard Deal Officially Approved In Brazil
Anyone hear Jim Ryan crying?

Game Pass on absolute fire right now. A lot of people complain about lack of AAA but what they offered is so good. Very happy with them right now
Re: UK Authority Sets March 2023 Deadline For Verdict On Xbox ActiBlizz Deal
Feels like this has been going on for many many years. Yet its only been like 10 months
Re: The New Dead Space Is $70, But It's Cheaper With Xbox Game Pass
Or Play it on EA Play. Waste of money buying a dead Space Remake especially with Callisto Protocol coming out
Re: Dead Space Remake Looks Jaw-Dropping In New Xbox Screenshots
Callisto Protocol killed the hype for Dead Space Remake. Most people will get that
Re: Google Stadia Is Shutting Down, Which Is Good News For Xbox
I forgot about this service
Re: Xbox Games With Gold For October 2022 Announced
At least game pass is good
Re: Talking Point: Do You Consider A Game's Length When Browsing Xbox Game Pass?
I prefer short games because of limited game time
Re: Monster Hunter-like 'Wild Hearts' Revealed By EA, Coming To Xbox In February 2023
Will wait for it to go on EA Play
Re: A Plague Tale: Requiem Runtime Revealed Ahead Of Xbox Game Pass Launch
Took about 13hrs to beat the first one. So 15hrs is pretty decent time.
Re: Two Games Are Available Today With Xbox Game Pass (September 27)
I recently finished Inside and The Walking Dead A New Frontier. I'm currently playing You Suck At Parking which might just be the most frustrating game ever.
Still got Tinykin and Prodeus to play afterwards. Game pass has been awesome with the smaller titles lately
