@FraserG @Tharsman I don't know, but maybe the older games will be attached to some of the games, like they did on the HD Collection? Some of the older titles were on MGS3, IIRC.

It will be great if they have it on a mini-bundle, though.

@Kaloudz Hey, I liked it too! Plenty of stuff I will be trying.

I guess when the new games start arriving, that Ubisoft+ Subscription will make sense, isn't it?

Haters gonna hate, I guess.

Niiice! Grasshopper is one of my favorite studios out there.

Now, Capcom, please release the IP of Killer7! You are doing nothing with it!

Any Simpsons game will do!

I haven't played SF since Third Strike, so IDK...anyway, I am in the same boat as @Ryu_Niiyama with ToTK.

@Kaloudz Thanks mate, as always!

@Kaloudz I sure would have loved to see it, but I couldn't

@Banjo- You're right, my friend, hell will freeze over before Starfield will get a 10 even if it's worth it!

@Tharsman Couldn't have said it better!

@Kaloudz You played SH Collection on Xbox? I played it on PS3 and I had no problem, even if I did know that there was a game breaking bug on both consoles (I think it was related to the trophies/achievements). Of course, it was not an ideal remaster!

@Kaloudz Spot on, as always, mate. I respect Bloober, but I think they're not ideal for an SH remake. In fact, in the first trailer shown, I already felt the usual Bloober awkwardness in graphics and design.

@GamingFan4Lyf Yes! I am kind of sad that the only one they are leaving behind is Quantum Break. I don't know if it's because is still an Xbox exclusive, but I would like to see it included in the Remedy-verse.

Great! A day one buy for me, love the original and love Remedy.

@Kaloudz IMHO, yes, Syberia 3 is good. Although, it was a little buggy when I played it (and it was a full year after release, IIRC). I remember one spot when the game "softlocked" and I lost some progress. It was only one time, but I read that it was much worse on release.

Now that you mention it, the main character DOES look like those Lara Crofts from the 2000's!

@Kaloudz Well, it seems now that we won't be losing more sleep over this, lol!

Now, I don't want to be super harsh on Microids, I think they sometime have great games, (IIRC, they are the publishers of the Syberia series and that one is mostly cool, IMO).

@Kaloudz Lol, your comment made laugh and I unite on the sentiment about this Inspector Gadget game, of all things!

@Kaloudz The "for vets" part made me feel old, lol!

Just kidding, of course . But yeah, in terms of Ubisoft, I am a true vet: I have been having played their games since the PS2 era, all the Raymans and Splinter Cells and Princes of Persia...I remember fondly the 15-year-old me, who thought Ubisoft and Konami were, like, THE GREATEST PUBLISHERS/DEVS ever, and they could not do wrong.

I know, I was very naive...

@Ryu_Niiyama Back on the topic at hand, I fully agree, only the Switch have something like ToTK.

I love my Xbox and GP and there are great games on this video. But Nintendo has been on a roll lately.

And this comes from someone who didn't love BoTW. But ToTK feels, at least to me, like an overall better game this time around.

@Kaloudz Immortals, that I would like, yessir! But knowing Ubi (or YouBee or Oobi!), I don't have high hopes, but one can dream.

If they start releasing some real bangers on a constant basis, who knows, maybe that much maligned Ubisoft+ subscription will be more appealing.

@Kaloudz lol, for me, it has always been "oo-bee-soft", maybe 'cause Spanish is my native tongue. But, whatever it is, I am a fan of them, as you may have noticed already! BTW, it seems the new AC is due this year .

@Banjo- It is even coming to the Switch!

And yes, it is good to have publishers who release their games on all big platforms, unlike SE!

Yep, loved MK11, but as cool as a beta access may sound, I will wait until the "Ultimate" version arrives. I think that is a given, right?

@Kaloudz 5 years later...or never, lol.

@Kaloudz lol at the Beavis and Butthead comment! I think you're spot on

@Kaloudz I was thinking the same! Great trailer with a near release date, not in some distant future!

@NEStalgia And Stellan Skarsgård as Jim Ryan.

Tom Holland is a nice choice, but I have always thought Mark Ruffalo will play a great Phil Spencer, lol.

@Banjo- Yeah! I saw your post after posting mine!

@Banjo- @Kaloudz Well, I still believe the deal will go through...but, seeing how the CMA is behaving (with their response yesterday and today's hearing), will they stick to their guns to the last moment? Will they drag the deal as long as it is possible?

@Kaloudz That is what's worse: I live in Mexico City, the capital of the country.

I will try to check with the service provider, because it has been getting worse and worse every year!

@Banjo- I sure hope so - I would love to buy OT2 on Xbox. Loved the first one, but It would feel strange to me to play the sequel on another console.

But an honest question to you guys who are more discerning than me: is it possible/realistic for Sony to buy SE? It would make sense to both parties?

Loved it! One of the most interesting games I have played recently. Loved the art style and the story.

And like many have said - not everything should have a sequel. But I hope the devs got the funding and time to keep working on more titles like this (even if these type of games are niche).

@Kaloudz My man, I have 5 Mbps up and down! It is a miracle I can use GP at all, lol!

Joking aside and FWIW, when nobody else is using Wi-fi at home, I can get a pretty decent time with xCloud. Last year, I did finish The Artful Escape on my phone with little issues.

I am looking for a better internet provider, but there aren't many options over here.

@Kaloudz Can Santa bring me one too? 😁

Nah, just kidding - I have the Steam Deck to play at home and I must say that it is great, mostly because I play retro games (PS2 era/OG Xbox games on it), so the battery issue isn't that bad.

OTOH, playing Game Pass natively is tempting...(without installing Windows on SD and all that!).

@Banjo- I must add, MS has a great customer support - at least from the experiences I've had so far. Quick responses and problems solved easily most of the time.

@Kaloudz Yes, it is BC! I downloaded it when I receive my XSX and it worked great

@Kaloudz It was an Xbox Live Arcade game (IIRC). Now it can be played on every Xbox, as it is fully BC:

https://www.xbox.com/en-GB/games/store/braid/bzgpbrq3lz7g

I returned to Xbox this gen with the Series X (since I skipped the Xbox One era), and the first thing I noticed when I plugged the console was that I had my old games still attached to my account. Limbo and Braid were some of them.

@GamingFan4Lyf I know, right ? A unique and underrated game, IMHO.

@GamingFan4Lyf Likewise, I updated Edge and I don't see any of that. Maybe it isn't available in my region.

@Fenbops Exactly my thoughts. BoTW was OK, but it didn't strike as the GOAT...

WW is one of the main Zelda games I haven't played yet, and is a shame because I always wanted to

@Kaloudz On a side comment, Limbo was OK to me - I played it years ago on the X360. Around the same time, I played *Braid" - man, that was an awesome indie title!

@Kaloudz @Krzzystuff Oh, that was very much true: I remember during the pandemic, people were saying it was all on "Kill Gates"!

@TheCrafter1578 I think the original offers great value for that price, and I think you won't be missing much of the new stuff (mostly, some quality of life improvements, animations and resolution). IMO, both are great and the remastered is the best way to play it. But, if you're on the fence, I would try the original, because it's always cheaper than the new one. That way, if you don't like it that much, you won't regret spending that much

@TheCrafter1578 I think it is, I will recommend it greatly! The game is a thriller in third person, with an interesting and well crafted story.

I think that the original Xbox 360 version still holds up to this day, it plays and looks great. But now there's a remaster on PS/XB/Switch. Both versions (the original 360 game and the remaster) are semi regularly on sale, so you can check it out without spending too much.

Wow, it's almost here! Never been a super fan of FIFA, but, IIRC, this one have the Ted Lasso content, isn't it?

Only for that, I will give it a shot! I absolutely love that series.

I surely hope so...this is one of my Day One games (along with Alan Wake 2).

@Kaloudz Glad you liked it, I am yet to try Redfall (whenever the download is ready: my internet connection is pretty slow lol).

I finished Hi-Fi, and now I am on Ghostwire: Tokyo. You were right. I am loving it! All the lore and the japanese folklore is great, the gameplay is cool, and the story is interesting.

When it released on PS, I didn't care much about it, but I read that it got some bad rap among critics and players. I don't why!

I must say, I am more intrigued by this one than Deathloop (the another PS exclusive back then), which was the opposite, highly praised, but it didn't click with me (so far, at least; I got to give it another chance).

There will be one in Mexico? I will register ASAP!

@Kaloudz Ghostwire is loaded and next on my list, once I finish Hi-Fi!

@eduscxbox "If Microsoft decided to make games the same style sony does why bother to even get an Xbox?"

You're spot on with your comment.

Maybe I don't know a thing about anything, but I find it strange that many people want (sometimes, with a passion) MS to go the exact same route as Sony. If we really, really MS to make games in the Sony vein, then what is the point? We should be getting a PS instead and there will be no need for Xbox as a brand.

Xbox has been doing mistakes lately, that is true. But I like the variety of the output from MS owned studios. You can get things like Pentiment one day, and something like Hi Fi Rush the next.
