I'm a big fan of Ninja Gaiden. Both the old ones and the "modern" ones. This one looked really good since the beginning. Ninja Gaiden tomorrow and Shinobi next month. We're eating good.
I think AI is the future, like it or not. Most studios are going to use it (some more than others), so I don't see being open about it as bad thing. It's just the timing that is TERRIBLE. And yeah, no gaming company is our friend, where do people get that from?
I'll give it a try. Reviews and scores never stopped me from playing a game. That "the best since Lies of P" makes me think though, since I thought that one was just fine.
They should really stop with the online shooters. Only one in ten doesn't flop hard. And I say this with no hate. I don't mind if there are 10 or 100, but it just doesn't seem worth it.
I still have to play both Psychonauts games. I've bought the first one ages ago. This one sounds intriguing too. There's just too many games and so little time!
I really enjoy the combat and how using all jobs get you permanent upgrades. I put my in-game playlist and it's time to grind. Which ends up being surprisingly fun.
I've been playing Wildermyth, which is amazing. Recommend for anyone who likes creating their own characters, SRPG/kinda XCOM 2-style, choices, board games and random events. Really surprised with that one.
Also, Raidou Remastered. A really good one. I feel like they made the enemies have too much HP, but the QoL improvements are really good.
And Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. Honestly, I've got all the Achievements, finished it in Legend and did the DLC dungeon, but after Expedition 33 I really wanted a turn-based RPG I enjoy and went back to get all the characters and their jobs to LV99.
I wish this would be true for smaller games, mainly weird japanese ones that aren't exclusive for any console but just skip Xbox.
I don't complain too much because I knew when I got my Xbox that it wasn't the place for those kind of games and the other benefits really outweight the cons (at least for me).
I guess I'll just grab a Switch 1 someday to play the ones I missed.

@MDHegs
Same, I love it, and most of its spin-offs! Nice to meet you to! 🙌🏻
Re: Multiple Games Announced For Xbox Following July 2025's Nintendo Direct
Wait, that MH game is turn-based? Okay, you have my attention now.
Re: Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (July 31 - August 3)
@Kaloudz
I love the series, but haven't met anyone who thinks is anything more than "good" or "fun" at best. 🤣
Re: Roundup: Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound Is Launching On Xbox To Very Impressive Reviews
I'm a big fan of Ninja Gaiden. Both the old ones and the "modern" ones.
This one looked really good since the beginning.
Ninja Gaiden tomorrow and Shinobi next month. We're eating good.
Re: All New Xbox Games Coming Out In August 2025
Never heard of The Knightling but it looks good!
Re: Talking Point: Are You Still Hyped For Hollow Knight: Silksong On Xbox Game Pass?
Honestly, nope. I thought the first one was alright at best.
Probably won't play it even being on Game Pass.
Re: Xbox Announces Gamescom Livestream Schedule For August 2025
Damn, nothing here for me. Hope the surprises are good!
Re: Talking Point: So, What Other PS5 Games Do You Want To See Come To Xbox?
I've sald it a few times already but I've played most of the first party stuff to give them a chance and liked none of them.
So I would want none of the first party stuff but instead games like Nioh, Rise of the Ronin, etc.
Re: These 10+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (July 28-August 1)
@FraserG
Now that I think about it, wasn't Earthion delayed for consoles? I think I've read a tweet from Yuzo Koshiro himself, but I could be wrong.
Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions Of Wuchang: Fallen Feathers On Xbox Game Pass?
It's not my cup of tea, but who the hell votes 1? 🤣
Re: These 10+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (July 28-August 1)
Earthion with music from the GOAT 🐐 Yuzo Koshiro. 🙏🏻
I also want Achilles Survivor and of course Ninja Gaiden.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 26-27)
Finished Echo Generation again recently.
Terra Memoria
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Raidou Remastered
Fate/Extra on PSP
Maybe a little of Final Fantasy 3 Pixel Remaster.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows DLC Lands On Xbox In September, Free For Those Who Pre-Ordered
Ready to.go back! One of the best games of this year imo!
I want to do the new quests too! It's gonna be awesome.
The DLC seems centered about Naoe, but I hope Yasuke has a lot of screen time too.
Re: Microsoft CEO Comments On Recent Xbox Layoffs, Doubles Down On AI
I think AI is the future, like it or not. Most studios are going to use it (some more than others), so I don't see being open about it as bad thing.
It's just the timing that is TERRIBLE.

Re: Sony Invests $460 Million In Bandai Namco, But Xbox Fans Shouldn't Be Worried
I wasn't worried. 🤣
Re: Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (July 24-27)
Never even heard of Terra Memoria, which isn't common with how much I browse the store.
It's not on my region, sadly.
Re: Microsoft Reverts Price Increase For The Outer Worlds 2, Will Launch For $70 On Xbox
Finally some good news!
Re: Forza Horizon 5 Is Seemingly The Best-Selling New PS5 Game Of 2025 So Far
That's what happens when a console finally has games. 🤣
Here we can clearly see what a genius idea was to release the game on PS. Like it or not, it makes money.
Re: Roundup: Here's What The Reviews Say About Wuchang: Fallen Feathers On Xbox Game Pass
@RiverGenie
I think it was in the Top Sellers chart on Steam.
How much of an accomplishment that is, I have no idea.
Re: Roundup: Here's What The Reviews Say About Wuchang: Fallen Feathers On Xbox Game Pass
I'll give it a try. Reviews and scores never stopped me from playing a game.
That "the best since Lies of P" makes me think though, since I thought that one was just fine.
Re: Splitgate 2 Is Going 'Back To Beta' Amidst Job Losses And Server Closure For Splitgate 1
They should really stop with the online shooters. Only one in ten doesn't flop hard.
And I say this with no hate. I don't mind if there are 10 or 100, but it just doesn't seem worth it.
Re: Talking Point: A Month Later, What Do You Think Of The New Xbox Game Hubs?
@Broosh
Ohh, I didn't know that was possible. I'll check it.
Re: Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora Is Getting A Third-Person Mode On Xbox
I suck at first person games, and I thought this one was too hard, even on Easy.
I might go back if it has third person.
Re: Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Release Date, Release Times & Preload Details On Xbox Game Pass
Can't see the numbers on the map. 😅
Will preload this one probably.
Re: Talking Point: As A Game Pass Subscriber, Do You Still Spend Money In Xbox Sales?
@SMJ
It's a real struggle. I feel the same. 😅
Re: Talking Point: As A Game Pass Subscriber, Do You Still Spend Money In Xbox Sales?
I have more than 900 Xbox games, so yeah, I buy games.
In fact, I'm trying not to buy too much anymore. 😅
Re: These 10+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (July 21-25)
Wuchang looks really good.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 19-20)
Rise of the Tomb Raider.
Raidou Remastered.
For the King 2.
Re: Microsoft Movies & TV Is Officially Ending, Which Will Have A Big Impact On Xbox
That's not even a thing in my region, so it's the same for me. 🤣
Re: PC Game Pass Members Are Being Treated To A Surprise New Release Today (July 17)
That title, haha... 🤐
Re: Deals: All 70+ Backwards Compatible Games In The Xbox Summer Sale 2025

It was a tricky one. 🤣
Re: Deals: All 70+ Backwards Compatible Games In The Xbox Summer Sale 2025

Is it Hydrophobia?
Re: Who Needs GTA 6?! Bus Simulator 27 Has Just Been Announced For Xbox Series X|S
I'd probably enjoy this one more, not gonna lie.
Re: These Eight Games Are Coming To Xbox Game Pass (July 17-August 1)
I'd buy that for a dollar!
Wasn't expecting Robocop on Game Pass. Almost bought it a few times and never did.
Re: Poll: Which Of Xbox's Fall 2025 Games Are You Most Excited About?
Just Ninja Gaiden 4 and that's it.
Re: Rare Comments On Everwild Cancellation For First Time Since Xbox Layoffs
I'd say show something when it's closer to release and not so early.
Re: Xbox's Full Black Ops 7 Reveal 'Kicks Off' Gamescom 2025 In August
Do we have more game events soon-ish?
Re: Talking Point: Are You Excited For Double Fine's Follow-Up To Psychonauts 2?
I still have to play both Psychonauts games.
I've bought the first one ages ago. This one sounds intriguing too. There's just too many games and so little time!

Re: Shadow Labyrinth Brings Its Pac-Man Metroidvania To Xbox Next Week
This one looks super interesting on premise alone.
Probably not a Day 1 for me, but really curious.

Re: Talking Point: After Almost Two Years, How Do You Feel About Xbox's Starfield In 2025?
I subbed to GP specifically to play it... And then asked for a refund in a day or two.
Last Bethesda game I enjoyed was Oblivion or Fallout 3 whichever of those was the more "new" one.
Re: 'Hotel Barcelona' Is A Bonkers Horror Game Led By Two Famous Japanese Creators
I really... Well, I'm not sure "like" is the right word. But I do enjoy these two guys' works.
Re: Xbox Game Pass: All Games Coming Soon In July 2025
@FarmDog08
It was still a good experience. It wasn't a bad game by any means.
Re: Xbox Game Pass: All Games Coming Soon In July 2025
@FarmDog08
Already finished it. I thought it was alright. Solid 6 maybe 7 out of 10.
Music was an easy 10/10 though.
Re: Talking Point: What's Your Favourite Backwards Compatible Xbox Game?
@VeganH
Man, I really wish Guardian Heroes was on my region.
Re: Talking Point: What's Your Favourite Backwards Compatible Xbox Game?
Probably Mass Effect 2 even if there's the Legendary Edition.
Jade Empire is great too.
Re: Sci-Fi Horror Game 'Routine' Returns After Three Years, Coming To Xbox Game Pass
Lost me at first person, sadly.
