Damn that's good money. I wonder how much those single developer games get. Like I wonder how much they paid for Midnight Fight Express. This could be lucrative for single developers, go to game pass via the Xbox ID program.
Xbox needs successors to Gears and Halo. New IPs that will be system sellers. STARFIELD is a good example if the game turns out to be good but more new IP is needed. Whole new experiences.
@Floki didn't discovery recently buyout Warner Bros? Before that surely it was Warner Bros who owned the IP. I think that acquisitions happened this year after the Activision deal. Xbox could've bought them instead hence Owned all those IP.
Still would have preferred Xbox buying out someone like Warner Bros. Obviously from a business point of view it makes sense for Microsoft. For me Personally, I dislike Activision.
I decided to go back to Trek To Yomi and try and finish the game this time. I've got 3 chapters left to go. The clunky combat makes the game frustrating most times but still a decent experience.
I also started Dead Cells, as you can imagine the game is very difficult. I'm struggling to get past the second area after 7 runs. I paused my playthrough as I started playing As Dusk Falls which I finished on Thursday night. Hoping to spend more time on DC.
Finally I'm going to start my playthrough of Spec Ops The Line.
I'm looking forward to this Game. I hope its High quality. Its nice to see quality games hit GamePass, As Dusk Falls this month and hopefully Midnight Fight Express next month. Loving these Indie gems.
One thing I've always wondered is why are digital copies of brand new games the same price as disc copies?
Surely if a disc of a new AAA Game is £70 then the digital counterpart should be cheaper as there are no distribution costs, no costs to to make the disc version, box etc.

Absolutely amazing gameplay
Re: Poll: Are You Planning On Picking Up Saints Row?
Waste of money. Even on a sale. I've seen Gameplay of it on YouTube. It looks very outdated and just super boring.

Re: Wait, Did Xbox Pay $600K For Cooking Simulator On Game Pass?
Damn that's good money. I wonder how much those single developer games get. Like I wonder how much they paid for Midnight Fight Express. This could be lucrative for single developers, go to game pass via the Xbox ID program.

Re: Two More Games Added To September 2022's Xbox Game Pass Lineup
High on Life will most likely be pushed to 2023 in a further delay
Re: Rumour: Sony Paid To Keep 'Cult Of The Lamb' Off Xbox Game Pass
Well that's potentially 2 very good games that we most likely will never get on the service now. Residents Evil Village and now Cult of the Lamb
Re: Rumour: Sony Paid To Keep 'Cult Of The Lamb' Off Xbox Game Pass
This is ridiculous if true from a game pass Subscriber perspective.
From a business perspective, that's a good strategy, keep the good games of the competitor service.

Re: Some Notable Titles Are Leaving Xbox Game Pass This Month (August 31)
Hades is a Masterpiece. Surprised NBA was only around for about 3-4 months. Makes sense for Two Point Hospital to leave now that they've added Campus.

Re: The Exciting Prospect Of ActiBlizz On Xbox Game Pass Is Starting To Feel Real
@Floki ah I see, thought it was Warner bros who owned. In that case yeah was never worth buying WB.

Re: The Exciting Prospect Of ActiBlizz On Xbox Game Pass Is Starting To Feel Real
@Floki Suicide Squad, Hogwarts Legacy, Gotham Knights, Mortal Kombat, Batman Arkham Games - How's that nothing?
