Hello there fellow gamers.
Hopefully both Everwild and Blade turn out to be really good games.
It´s been awhile since Rare has made a singleplayer game that does feel like a Rare game, so we´ll see.
As for Blade, in Arkane Lyon I trust fully, even though this will be their first third person action game. But they do have the talent, so let them cook.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all

Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´m all about Metaphor ReFantazio on my Series X and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5. Been having a lot of fun online matches with some pretty good players in SF6.
Also, it has been awhile since I´ve been so enamored with a turn based rpg like Metaphor and I do think this will be my game for the next months.
Although, I do want to finish at least one playtrough of both Sillent Hill 2 and Alan Wake 2 as well.
So many good games to play. Gamers are eating good.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll be playing Astro Bot, wich is the best game ever, more Street Fighter 6 online matches, learned some new Ryu combos, gotta do them in a match and continue Kay Vess Star Wars Outlaws journey all on my PS5.
I´m putting my Series X on rest until I get my physical copies of Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, Metaphor: Refantazio and Assassins Creed Sahdows...... Or until I decide to play Control or Lies of P again 😜
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Cheers

@BowsersBuddy Hello there friend;
It is quite fun and the feeling of being inside the Star Wars Universe is definitely there.
Also, I agree with you about the side missions. They do feel more part of kay´s progression and evolution as a Space Scondrel.
I might also becoming slighty addicted to Kessel Sabacc 😜
Cheers and have a good one

Hello there fellow gamers;
It seems I´m one of the few that´s really enjoying the game.
It is a Star Wars game that feels like Star Wars, it has the vibe, the ambiance, the style and many references to the source material, has it should any adaptation have.
I do think the highlights for me are the actual Space exploration and Space combat as well as the different factions that may get in favour with some and not so good with others.
Does it have it´s flaws? Oh yes, it does have indeed.
Gunplay could be a litle better as well as the games stealth.
But overall, it´s a pretty good game and more importantly, I´m having a lot of fun with it. Isn´t that what matters the most?
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll be playing Star Wars Outlaws and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5 and replaying Control and Lies of P on my Series X.
I´m really enjoying SW Outlaws, there is a lot to like and enjoy, plus it is a Star Wars game that looks and feels like Star Wars.
Don´t understand the negativity surronding this game and others for that matter.
People should just enjoy playing what they like. That´s what I do.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers,
Another very interesting brand new IP from a new game studio is great to see. And it looks amazing to boot.
I totally get what @FarmDog08 is saying. Lost Odissey did had a mechanic were, when it was your character´s turn to attack, if you let go of the right trigger at the right time, you would do more damage. Made every battle way more engaging.
But this game takes it to a completely new other level.
Can´t wait for this one next year.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
Having finishing AC Mirage, a really good stealth game and finally finished the amazing Lies of P, I´m now currently thinking of playing Alone in the Dark and maybe, probably play Control for a third time on my Series X. I just love that game, it´s so fun.
Although I do want to replay Lies of P for all the achievements.... And because the game is that good.
Will also dable in Rise of the Ronin and some Street Fighter 6 matches on my PS5.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
That is a though question. Only three Xbox games Huh?
Okay. i think I got it:

• Mass effect Legendary Edition. I have played this trilogy 7 times already, so...... what´s another 7 more;
• Street Fighter 6 or Tekken 8. Both are amazing fighting games and have been my main fightin game focus has of late. Plus they both have really good singleplayer content;
• Elden Ring with Shadow of the Erdtree DLC included.
  Might just be my ultimate open world action rpg to have.
  Although, has I´m currently playing AC Odissey, that one is another really good contender, alongside AC Valhalla.
  Yeah, very difficult to only chose three. Should have been six at the very least 😜
  Cheers everyone and happy gaming

@Jenkinss Hi there friend.
I absolutely agree. That whole fight with Bayle the Dread and Igon hyping you up was PEAK Fromsoftware Boss fight for me personaly.
It was so Hype and Spectacular in both visuals, music and character. Utter briliant.
Cheers

Hello there fellow gamers.
Having finished the amazing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC on my PS5, now I´m back at playing Assassins Creed Odissey on my Series X.
I´m pretty late to the party with AC Odissey and I don´t see why the game got so much flak. It is pretty great in my opinion.
I´ve been pleasantly surprised by the narrative and beautiful Greek landscapes. It is a BIG game, that´s for sure.
Cheers and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
There were some very nice games in the Xbox Showcase, but my number one has to be Expedition 33.
It looked absolutly amazing, in both presentation and combat. Good to see more turned based rpgs being made.
The other games I´m interested are:

• Assassins Creed Shadows;
• DOOM: The Dark Ages;
• Dragon Age: The Veilguard;
• Fable;
• Gears of War E-Day;
• Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater;
• Perfect Dark;
• South of Midnight;
• Stalker 2;
• Wuchang: Fallen Feathers.
  So many games, so little time to enjoy them.
  Probably one of the best problems to have as a gamer.
  Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
This weekend is all about Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree.
It´s all I can think about right now, playing this gem of a game.
And Nothing Else Matters....... Until I´m done with it.
Then, I´ll probably go back to AC Odissey and Rise of the Ronin.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

@Lup Hello and thanks friend. I´m enjoying it very much.
Good to know that more people like AC Odissey.
It is a very different AC game, but it is, so far a pretty good open world stealth action rpg.
And Bramble and the Mountain King is quite a interesting game,
that´s for sure.
Cheers and have a good one

Hello there fellow gamers.
Since I have finished AC Origins (again) and both dlc (for the first time), and I am still in the mood for these type of games, I just started AC Odissey last night, so I´ll be playing that one on my Series X.
As for my PS5, I´ll be playing more online SF6 matches and maybe I will finally start Rise of the Ronin.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

@Scummbuddy Hello there friend.
Honestly? I saw the Pure Xov Bingo Card that mentioned Blue Dragon Remake, so that is why I put it there alongside Lost Odissey, wich are two of my favourite JRPGs of all time and I just want more people to give it a go...... And maybe get Sakaguchi-san and Uematsu-san to join together again and make sequels of both games. That is all.
Cheers

Hello there fellow gamers.

• Fable gameplay. Yes, please. Let´s see what Playground is cooking with this very dormant franchise;
• Blue Dragon Remake and Lost Odissey Remake, because why not? Yes and Yes, please and thank you;
• Forza Horizon Japan. Could be very cool;
• Doom Dark Ages. Doom Guy/Slayer shooting demons in medieval times? Yes, please;
• Clockwork Revolution. Yes, with a release date of course;
• Hollow Knight Silk Song. We can only hope, but Yes;
• Marcus Fenix Collection. Absolutely Yes. It is probably the announcemnt that I´m most looking for;
• South of Midnight gameplay. Very curious with this one;
• Gears of War 6. I mean, it´s been way to long. Coalition has to show it off..... Right? Hopefully so;
• Something Brand New that excites people.
  Those are my wishes and predictions. We´ll see waht we get.
  Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
Don´t miss out Bramble: The Mountain King.
It is a very interesting and grim adventure game set in a world inspired by dark, Nordic fables.
Worth checking in my opinion.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
Seems I´m not the only one with very fond memories of the original Test Drive Unlimited on Xbox 360.
That game paved the way to games like Forza Horizon and The Crew franchises.
I loved exploring the Island of Oahu with both cars and bikes.
The game was just fun and chill.
Hopefully TDU Solar Cown has the same spark and the same style the original had. We´ll see.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
For this weekend I´ll continue my AC Origins second playtrough, this time on my Series X with both DLCs to play around and online matches in Street Fighter 6 on my PS5, sice Akuma just droped and, surprise, he is very fun to play and very fun to fight against.
I love what Capcom did with Sirn Akuma Giant Attack Boss fight in the Battle Hub. The game needs more of this stuff.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
For the last two months I´ve been in a Open World Action RPG frenzy with games like FF7 Rebirth, Horizon 2 Forbidden West on my PS5 and AC Valhalla on my Series X.
And now that I´ve finished AC Valhalla and finally got my 1Tb Expansion Card, been installing more games and one of them is AC Origins, one of my favourite AC and favourite Open World Action RPGs, sooooo......... I decided to play the game again, but now on my Xbox and sweet 60 FPS.
I don´t know how long I´ll keep playing these type of games, since they take so much time, but as long as I´m having fun, I´ll continue indulging myself.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
This seems about right. We haven´t heard much from id software in a long while and the rumours for a prequel game could also be true.
Kinda excited for the nex Xbox gaming showcase.
Xbox really needs a WIN and needs to excite fans with great GAMES. A lot of people are in bad funk as of now and they really have to bring some positivity and excitment.
Wich may prove difficult, but not impossible.
Fingers crossed for it to be an amazing one.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
As of now I´m just currently enjoying my time with Assassins Creed Valhalla on my Series X and Lies of P on my PC.
Have already finished the main game of AC and now doing the dlc expasions.
And Lies of P is becoming better and better the more I play it.
So yeah, those are the two games I´ll be enjoying.
After those, I might jump to some of my new PS5 game purchases, wich are quite a few.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
This are some really bad news. For gamers, developers and Xbox in general.
I can understand Arkane Austin to a certain degree, because one bad game, does not make the whole studio bad. They made Prey. And it´s awesome.
And then there´s Tango..... I mean REALLY? Their one and only japanese developer? Who has some pretty good games under their belt, some that could/should probably get sequels?
What a tremendous disapointing decision by the Xbox game division administration.
Hopefully, the developers that will unfortunately be laid off by this, will find either other studios to work with or start a brand new studio and continue to do their passion.
All the very best for them. Cheers

Hello there fellow gamers,
Man, this games were my childhood on both PSOne and Sega Dreamcast back in the day.....
And just like @el_pieablo and @Chinesus mentioned, the voice acting is still very cringe....
Wich is kinda part of the game´s charm, I guess.
But these are two rpg gems from the past.
Great to see them on Xbox and Playstation.
Cheers and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
This thing also happened to me.
Yesterday I turn my Series X on to check some games and play the Original Dead Space and had no games on my wishlist.
Went to do it again and had the same result.
Hopefully they can fix this anoying glitch.
Cheers and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
These past few days have been quite something in the Xbox side of things.
As someone that owns a Switch, a PS5 and a Series X (and PC, mostly for work, but games as well) the only thing I care about is having amazing gaming experiences to play and have fun with, regardless of platform.
But I´m not going to mention that exclusive titles don´t matter, because they do matter and they always will.
This is the main reason people have different gaming systems. To play the interesting exclusives on each platform.
It is funny though how over the years, both Xbox and Playstation have lost some exclusive titles over each other.
Games like Tekken, Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid and Devil May Cry were for the most part of them PS exclusive games.
There came the Xbox 360 and Tekken 6, Final Fantasy XIII, Devil May Cry 4 and Metal Gear Solid HD Colection were on there.
And what about games like Lost Planet, Enchanted Arms, Eternal Sonata, Bioshock and Mass Effect that were Xbox 360 exclusive games at the time, would eventually come to PS3. Even if Mass Effect took longer because it was published by Microsoft and later aquired by EA.
So this kind of thing is not really new or bad in any way.
Even if some games from Xbox portfolio will be made available in other platforms, that doesn´t change the many Xbox exclusives is already has and will have in the future.
And Xbox does seem to have a bright future full of great games and new hardware. Excited for the June showcase for sure.
Sorry for the long post. Just my two cents on this matter.
And @kaloudz, my friend, keep posting. Your positivity and excitement for games is almost as good as mine 😉
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers
From that list I have to go with Hellblade 2. Very curious what will they do with both story and gameplay combat mechanics.
As for other first party titles:

• Gears of War 6. Really want a new Gears of War game;
• Clockwork Revolution. Looks super good;
• New Halo. Give us a good Halo campaign 343, pretty please;
• The new Fable game by Playground Games. Hope they can nail the style, setting and humour of the old games;
• Indiana Jone and The Great Circle. It´s an Indy videogame by the makers of Riddick Escape from Butcher Bay. Enough said.
  We shall see what the future holds.
  Cheers everyone and happy gaming

@Kaloudz Hey there friend.
The Bioshock games are some of the most incredible FPS games of all time. Especially the first. (and Infinite in my opinion).
This is why JUDAS is one of my most anticipated games.
If you never got spoiled, then you must play at least the first Bioshock game.
Cheers and happy gaming

@Kaloudz Hi there friend. I was about to say the exact same thing, alongside Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition.
Two great games at a low price.
Really wish both Capcom and Square Enix could remake each game.
Capcom is on fire with ultiple and really good releases, so maybe Code Veronica has a chance. We´ll see.
Cheers and have a good one

Hit there fellow gamers.
If this Xbox Developer Direct is as good as last year, then not only will we get some really good information, gameplay and release dates, hopefully, but also, maybe another nice surprise game being revealed and possibly shadow dropped? Maybe.
Very excited for January 18th.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
These are some good news for Xbox.
Quite curious with both Idiana Jones and Hellblade 2.
Avowed could also won me over, since it´s Obsidian we´re talking about.
And then there is the surprise anouncement with a possible shadow drop. There I say Silksong perhaps? Fingers crossed.
Or maybe a Gears of War collection? Who knows....
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
I would say my gaming resolution for this year to be try as much as possible to finish my HUGE backlog of games spread out from Xbox Series X, PS5 and Switch.
Also to only purchase games that are either on sale or a really good day one deal.
And to keep enjoying this hobby/passion of mine all year.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hi there fellow gamers.
I have always enjoyed AC since the first and especially since the second, wich is still one of my favourites, until AC3 and AC4 Black Flag wich I didn´t like them as much.
The next ones were better, in my opinion and started to showcase the next gen hardware(AC Unity is still gorgeous even today).
But I´ll say that AC Origins was a blast to play back in the day and I just love the setting and time period.
I have yet to play Odissey, but plan to do eventually.
AC Valhalla is the AC game that I am currently playing and I´m really enjoying it. The Viking setting also helps.
So yeah, I like the "Modern" AC games quite a bit.
And I am very excited to finally play an AC game in Feudal Japan. Cannot wait for it.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

@Edwirichuu hey there friend.
Have to agree with pretty much everyone here.
RE2 is a very good game(not as good as the PSone original, but still pretty good) that you can play with two characters and multiple times, wich means great replay value.
Ac Valhalla, in my opinion, is a great open world action rpg and it has become one of my favourite AC games, even though I´m only in the middle of it with 38 plus hours or so.
Both great additions to gamepass, no doubt.
Cheers and happy gaming

Hi there fellow gamers.
my favourite memories of 2023 are.

• The Developer Direct with Hi-Fi Rush shadow drop;
• Finally playing AC Valhalla and really enjoy it.
• Playing Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition and loving every second.
  Hopefully, there will be much more good memories to have next year for Xbox.
  Until then, cheers and have a great New Year everyone

Hi there fellow gamers and Merry Christmas.
Hope you all have a great day with your loved ones and play some good, fun and exciting videogames.
Cheers everyone and all the best

@Lup Some great games you got there friend.

• Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons definitely leaves an impression, especialy at the end of the game. Kinda curious if there will be any changes with the remake though;
• Vanquish is still one of the best and stylish third person shooter;
• Injustice 2 Legendary Edition. Another one I got because it was so cheap even though I already have it on my PS4;
• Scarlet Nexus is another game that I own in physical media and still haven´t gotten to play it yet;
• Mass Effect Legendary Edition. I mean, why wouldn´t people purchase one of the very best rpg trilogys ever made.
  In the wise words of the narrator from the amazing
  Street Fighter 3 Third Strike "Yeah, that makes sense".
• Asterigos: Curse of the Stars. Very curious on that one. Let me know if it´s any good or not. Might be another good purchase.
  Cheers

@Lup Hey there friend.
Yeah, I was just waiting for an excuse to purchase and now I have it. Bought it on my Series X here, in my country Portugal.
Is the game not available outside Europe maybe? It is the 360 version if I´m not mistaken.
Game is fantastic and still holds up very well.
That´s odd. Well, hope it will be available everywere eventualy.
Cheers and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers;
This I´ll continue playing my birhtday present Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition on my Series X and some Street Fighter 6 olnine matches on my PS5.
Merry Chistmas, enjoy the Holidays and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
So.... I kinda went a little nuts and got quite a few games for my Series X:

• Assassin´s Creed Origins Gold Edition;
• Assassins`s Creed Odyssey Gold Edition;
• Scars Above;
• Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate + Injustice 2 Legendary Edition Bundle;
• Battle Chasers: Nightwar;
• Jade Empire;
• Guardian Heroes.
  Don´t know when I´ll have time or storage space to play all of them, but I´m glad to own them nonetheless.
  Cheers and happy gaming everyone

@FarmDog08 @CharlieChooChoo @Rmg0731 @GamingFan4Lyf
Hi there fellow gamers.
Glad to see more fans of both Mistwalker and rpgs in general.
I really wish they had more success with both 360 games.
Even tough I´m the weird gamer that enjoyed Final Fantasy XIII and it´s sequel, I still say to this day, that Lost Odyssey is the FF game that most FF fans wanted to play but couldn´t.
And Blue Dragon is no slouch either. It is still pretty good.
The fact can both are playable trough backwards compatibility on Series S/X is fantastic and any rpg fan should give them a go.
Cheers everyone and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers.
I don´t think I can only mention ONE Xbox 360 game, since there were many great games that came out in that period.
Having said that, here are some of my personal favourites:

• Lost Odyssey;
• Gears of War triligy;
• Blue Dragon;
• Bioshock;
• Magna Carta 2;
• Mass Effect trilogy;
• Ninja Gaiden Black trough backwards compatibility.
  There are quite a few others, but these were/are kinda special.
  Cheers and happy gaming

@HonestHick Hey there friend.
Just like @Kobeandodom mentioned, Remnant 2 is indeed fantastic. Both games are.
The Remnant series is very much like a Souls-like type game where you have checkpoints that reset both your health items as well as the enemies in the area your playing.
You can play the game both solo and co-op up to two people.
It is a somewhat challenging game(although you have difficulty options that you can change) with procedural generated levels, although some of them are man made for story reasons.
The gameplay mechanics is what sells the game in my opinion.
Shooting enemies feels great in both audio and visual, there are many different weapons, armour sets to find and unlock, many interesting and weird npcs to meet and Bosses to fight.
You will be able to craft weapons, mods and charms from defeating major Bosses wich can change the way you play entirely.
The second game also gives you the ability to have two different classes at the same time, giving players more to experiment.
And because it is procedural generated, no playtrough will ever be the same, meaning more replay value. And you can play new game plus in any difficulty setting.
Since both games are on Gamepass as of now, you should give it a try and see for yourself, if you have enough storage space.
But if you enjoy shooters, then I think you´re gonna like these.
Hope my long text shed some light.
Cheers

@Duck_Farmer Hey there friend
I echo the exact same sentiment as you for two reasons:

• Reason one, I played around 35 hours or so of Starfield and the game never did truly grabed me. There were some good moments and the game does seem to have potential, but it never became great, so I uninstalled it.
• Reason two, I am also currently playing Assassin´s Creed Valhalla and I´m really enjoying the game so far.
  Maybe I was just craving an open world action rpg or something.
  But then I got Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty Edition and after the abysmal launch(wich I played a bit on PC) I can safely say it is an amzing open world shooter rpg, that in my opinion, does what Starfield does not.
  For everyone who played, finished and love Starfield, more power to you.
  It is always great to find a game that we can put hours on end and all of them are exciting. It´s what we want the most.
  And as of now, those games for me are Cyberpunk 2077 and AC Valhalla on my Series X, Zelda TOTK on my Switch and Spiderman 2 on my PS5.
  What a great year for gaming this was.
  Cheers and happy gaming

@JokerBoy422 The game is not bad at all in terms of ginding.
Only if you play in hard mode.
If you just play the game normaly there won´t be any issues.
The game is fun and the story is quite nice.
I would say you can´t go wrong with both Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon, two of the best Xbox exclusive rpgs.
Cheers

@Kaloudz Both of them look quite good, although Lost Odyssey is indeed a little grainy, but I think you can tweek a few visual settings to make it look better, as well as using HDR if you can.
Two of my personal favourite rpgs of all time.
If you enjoy turn based combat, then these are games for you.
Cheers

Hi there fellow gamers.
This is my Xbox Game of The Year List of 2023:

• Lies of P. What an amazing and really well done souls-like action game. One of my personal GOTYs of 2023.
• Hi-Fi Rush. One of the best gaming surprises of this year.
• Remnant 2. The first was already good. The second is just better in almost every way.
• Bramble: The Mountain King. One of those games that you have no idea where it´s going to go, but it is quite good.
• Planet of Lana. Heard very good things about it and didn´t disapoint. Short with great visual storytelling
• Honorable mention; Assassin´s Creed Valhalla. Not of this full stacked year, but I finally gave it a go and I am pleasently surprised on how much I´m currently enjoying the game.
  And then there´s other games that I played on my PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC.
  As well as many others that will go to the backlog and will play them eventually.
  What an absolute amazing year for gaming all around.
  Cheers, stay safe everyone and happy gaming to us all

@JokerBoy422 @Kaloudz hey there friends.
Just had to reply and say DO IT!
It is a really good rpg from the creator of Final Fantasy Sakaguchi-san with Toryama-san visual style and Uematsu-san awesome ost.
I played it way back when it launched on 360 and as soon as it was on sale, I got it for my Series X along side Lost Odissey.
Both are fantastic rpgs and you should get them if you guys are into turn based combat.
I still listen to both games ost when go to the gym. Really good.
Cheers and have a good one both of you
