Hi there fellow gamers.
By far, the most amazing racing game I have ever seen.
Kudos for Playgroung games for making me really wanting to get an Xbox, since this game is a Xbox console exclusive.
What a fantastic showcase of a game.
Cheers, stay safe folks and happy gaming to us all

@themightyant Hi there friend.
Guess you and I think alike.
First I got the game on my PC, then on my PS4 and finally on my Switch.
But I only finished 112% completion on my PC.
Those Pantheon trials are something else.
But I loved finding the secret hidden Boss in there.
Team Cherry are geniuses I say.
It´s really great that we have games like Hollow Knight, the Ori games and the Guacamelee games to gaves us that awesome Metroidvania style of games that I enjoy so much.
Cheers, stay safe and all the best

Hi there fellow gamers.
Hollow Knight, is by far, THE BEST Metroidvania game I have ever played after SOTK and Super Metroid.
The art, the vibe, the beautiful environments, the amazing level design, the story and mistery for the players to find, the awesome Boss encounters, the precise and satisfying gameplay mechanics and the Music, the GOD Tier Music elevates this game so much that I cannot give this game less than a 10/10.
It is a Masterpiece in my humble oppinion.
Great article Daniel. Keep it up.
Cheers, stay safe, stay well and happy gaming to us all

@BuddyDog7601 Hi there friend.
Yeah, Blinx is great.
It would be nice that some of these IPs could come back.
Kinda like Perfect Dark and Fable.
Excited for those and the other new stuff.
Cheers, stay safe and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers.
Is it a Conkers spinoff?
Or maybe Blinx?
As for the new IPs, color me interested.
Excited to see what these studios will bring to the table.
Cheers, stay safe folks and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
this is a 10/10 for me.
The gameplay, the writing, the characters, the story, the puzzles and the super fun co-op makes this game kinda perfect.
I still listen from time to time to Cave Johnsons blabering about lemons 😂 My favourite part of the game.
That and space. space, space 😜
I gets me every time I hear it.
And you are absolutely right Fraser, it´s time for Portal 3.
Cheers, stay safe good people and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
My favourite Ninja Gaiden game is NG Black on the original Xbox.
I have played that game so many times on both my OG Xbox and my 360 trough backwards capability.
Funy story(maybe not so funny), my original version of Ninja Gaiden would break and not load the Alma Boss fight.
it ran fine until then. I could only see the cutscene and then..... nothing at all.
Fortunately I was able to get a new one that worked.
Even the game feared Alma 😜
Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@CrazyJF Hi there friend.
i agree that the 360 was the best Xbox system, in my oppinion.
So many great unique exclusive games and franchises that began there.
Gears of War 3 campaign was so good, Forza Motorsport 4 blew me away with the Autovista mode, Lost Odissey was the "Final Fantasy" game that I wanted to play(even though I actualy like Final Fantasy XIII a lot on my PS3), Magna Carta 2 as well and the whole Mass Effect trilogy that still holds a very special place.
Like I said, amazing system with awesome games to play.
Cheers, stay safe and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers.
It was Xbox 360 in my case, alongside Project Gotham Racing 3, Dead or Alive 4 and Test Drive Unlimited as the first games that realy got me hooked.
Then came Ninja Gaiden 2, Gears of War, Alan Wake,
Lost Odissey and the amazing Mass Effect.
Could not be more happy with my purchase.
That system was awesome. Some great memories from it.
Cheers, stay safe out there and happy gaming valentines day for us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
You scored 14 out of 15.
11-15: You're awesome!
Why thank you 😜
Some really awesome games coming for the system.
I´m excited for Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, Fable and Everwild as well as Perfect Dark.
Big hopes for these games.
Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@NEStalgia Hi and thanks for the reply.
Even though I am a fan of many different kind of videogames I do tend to like certain games more often.
And I personaly have really enjoyed the kind of games Sony Playstation has made, and Microsoft for that matter, for quite some time and even more in recent years.
Why? Because I love single player story driven games the most.
You think they are movie games and if you don´t like that, it´s fine. It is your oppinion.
But the same way I like Games like Bloodborne, Ni-Oh 2, Forza Motorsport, Super Mario Odissey and Doom I also love games like God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, Spiderman, Gears of War 5 and The Last of Us part 2.
Story driven games, with amazing Visuals and Art style and awesome Gameplay mechanics.
No gimmicks whatsoever.
For me, my oppinion, Sony, Microsoft and even Nintendo have both changed and evolved over the years.
Nintendo have decided to go on a different route than Sony and Microsoft ever since the N64 and even more with the Wii.
Nintendo likes to do things different and that´s okay.
The other two are more graphical powerhouses but also have little things that differentiate them from each other.
And again, that is okay to.
Variety is a good thing to have.
Cheers, stay safe and have a good one

@NEStalgia Hi there friend.
You know, it still baffles me that some individuals believe that "only one true" videogame company actualy matters and the
others don´t.
The same way some people say that this company
"only makes" this kind of games or that kind of games.
Surely you must like when some people say that Nintendo "only makes" kids games. I´m guessing not so much.
The reality is, ALL videogame companies make different and great games that a lot of different people enjoy, with different tastes.
ALL games are fun. 3D Platformers, Racing games(simulation and arcade), First Person Shooters, Action Adventure games, Puzzle games, Third Person Shooter games, Role Playing games, so on and so forth.
Even if someone does not like or enjoy a type of game, that does not mean it is a bad game, or that it is not a game.
Because just like the sentence "Nintendo only makes kids games" is false, so it is that certain companies only makes "movies with directional inputs".
And yes, I can imagine Nintendo laughing their butts off while hearing the Microsoft proposal.
It must have been hilarious, surely.
Cheers, stay safe out there and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. Uncle Phill is saying something that has been said before by many people, including myself.
"Console Wars" is one thing. Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo, as console manufacturers, should always compete between themselves in order for us, the customers, see their platforms improve and giving us the best gaming experiences they possible can.
"Fanboy Wars" on another is entirely different. It is negative on so many levels that makes a fun and interesting conversation or debate with someoneto become a toxic and offensive dialogue that benefits no one.
We are gamers that love gaming. That´s it.
We have our own preferences and guess what?
It is perfectly fine to have them.
May we start to see a positive difference in the gaming universe that I enjoy so much.
Cheers, stay safe and happy next gen gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
I got my Xbox 360 day one with Perfect dark Zero, Kameo: Elements of Power and Project Gotham Racing 3.
I enjoyed the first two games, but it was PGR3 alonside with Test Drive Unlimited loved the most.
Two of the best racing games I´ve played.
Then Dead or Alive 4, Ninja Gaiden 2(man those games were hardcore and awesome).
Playing the brand new IPs Lost Planet, Gears of War, Mass Effect and Bioshock was some of the best memories that I have from my 360, wich in my oppinion, was the best Xbox and one of my favourite consoles.
Happy 15th Anniversary Xbox 360. You were fantastic.
Cheers, stay safe and happy next gen gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. I have really fond memories when I got mine.
I had some money saved already, but it wasn´t enough.
Then on my birthday, my Uncle and grandparents gave me more money than I needed, wich meant I could get some more games.
Naturally, I was overjoyed.
Ran as fast as I could to the first store and got my OG Xbox special Halo2 two controllers eddition, with Fable and Project Gotham Racing 2 on discs only and grabed Shenmue 2 as well.
Then went to another store to get Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive 3.
Got home, showed to my family and installed the system in our living room as they watched me play PGR and DOA, first games I played on the system.
A really good old memory that I have when most of my family members were still in this earth.
Hope everyone has a lot of fun with their brand new gaming system, whatever it is.
Great article PureXbox @FraserG. Keep up the good work.
Cheers, stay safe out there and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. Happy Xbox Series X/S day!
Hope everyone gets their console in time and enjoy it to the fullest. ACV looks pretty fun, even more if you are a viking fan.
I´m very excited to get my next gen system on November 19 (PS5 for me).
These are exciting times with brand new and powerfull gaming systems, that will indeed, power the devs dreams and our own dreams as well. Can´t wait to see what Microsoft games studios will create for this beast of a machine.
Cheers, stay safe out there good people and happy next gen gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. The first Gears of War was great.
I still remenber playing the game in my old standard-definition 60hz tv with composite AV cables and being wowed by it.
Then I got my very first HD tv......
I couldn´t belive my eyes. All the details in Marcus Fenix armour as well as the textures and minor details from the enemies and the environment that I just couldn´t see before.
Mind blowing at the time.
Great series and my personal favourite Xbox franchise.
GOW3 is still one of the best tps ou there in my oppinion.
Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@FraserG Hi there fellow gamers.
Wow....... This is a though one.
All three games are awesome in their own right.....
I´m gonna cheat and say all three of them.
Never have I experienced a gaming saga quite like this one.
MGS(1-4) and ME trilogy will always be my number one favourite sagas of all time.
But if I really have to pick just one, I have to pick the first.
Nothing is going to beat getting my limited edtion Xbox 360 version from my local store with some friends and watching that sweet intro into the ME universe with the iconic score in the background....... Really good and fond memories from this article.
Thank you Fraser for reminding me of this.
Cheers, stay safe out there people and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. I do have to agree with @Dezzy70 in terms of 343 being stretched thin by making a new semi-open world Halo that´s supposed to be the flagship of "the most powerful console", when in reality, it was probably developed with the Xbox One in mind.
Because it does not look like it is made for the Series X or that it should be.
Even though I´m not a Halo fan I wanted Infinite to blew me away since I love sci-fi so much. It didn´t. Not for me at least
Let´s hope the studio, who is taking criticism in a very positive way mind you, can still make an awesome game for the fans who have been eagerly waiting for Master Chief to make a return, and for new ones who love the space/alien setting.
Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@Jslade Hi there friend. Crazy indeed. With games like Alan Wake, Magna Carta 2, the Mass Effect trilogy, Lost Odissey, Bioshock, the Gears trilogy.
All great games that made the 360 a really good gaming system. I remenber being excited and watching all the trailers for the new games.... I still have all my limited editions of Alan wake and the Mass Effect trilogy. And Bioshock made me enjoy first person shooters. Love that game and Bioshock Infinite. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@Grot Hi there friend. Those are some worrisome news indeed. Uematsu-san composings are phenomenal. Hope he is able to recover well. Best wishes. Cheers, stay safe and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers. The Ori franchise is great. loved The blind Forest and currently enjoying Will of the Wisps.
It´s not so easy to make a good RPG, but I have faith in Moon Studios. Take your time and make something awesome.
Cheers, saty safe and happy gaming to us all

@Jaxx420 Hi there friend. If somehow Microsoft anounces Lost Odissey 2 with Sakaguchi-san at the helm and Uematsu-san as the leading composer, I´m gonna lose my mind. Absolutely love Lost Odissey. One of my favourites of all time. Man the 360 was an awesome system. Cheers, saty safe and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. You scored 15 out of 15.
11-15: You're awesome! Thanks for reminding me of that 😉
Jokes aside, I really do enjoy this type of quizzes. And some of these games are quite nice. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@themightyant Hi there friend. You are absolutely right about Cyberpunk 2077. CD Projekt Red did say that their game won´t be on GP. As for ACV and WD they probably will, if not for certain deals that ubisoft have with Microsoft. Cheers and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers. The Xbox games showcase didn´t conviced me to buy a Xbox Series X(very weird naming convention if you ask me), but it did convince me to signing up and get Game Pass on PC.
In my country, Portugal, I can get GP on PC for 1€ on the first month and 3.99€ for the next months. It is almost a steal. So much value per money. I have no idea how Microsoft can sustain such a thing and how much money the developers actualy get for their work and projects, but man it is super consumer friendly.
That means I will be able to play games like Gears 4 and 5, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Cyberpunk 2077, Assassin´s Creed Valhalla and Watch Dogs Legion for 1€ on November. Ridiculous good. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. My vote goes to Everwild, with Fable a close second. I can´t say it enough times, but Everwild looks gorgeous. Love that art style so much. As for Fable, being made by Playground games makes me excited for what they will be able to do with this franchise that has been dormant for far to long. They already got the humour right. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. For me the two games that really got me were Everwild and The Medium.
The first was gorgeous to watch, like a interactive cartoon. And the second with the Sillent Hill vibe and the dual reality gameplay mechanic? Plus Akira Yamaoka as the composer? Absolutely sold on that one. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. I gave this event a C plus. It didn´t blew me away, but there were some good points:
The presentation was way better than the last one;
Lot´s of games were shown, with a good variety. Everwild looks beautiful but there was no gameplay sadly.
Were going to have Fable, good people, after so many years without one. And made by Playground. That´s pretty cool.
Quite a few others were brand new, The Gunk and As Dusk Falls both look right up my alley, as well as The Medium. Very excited for that one.
And some were unexpected sequels like Stalker 2 and Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis anyone?)
But nothing wowed me personaly. I´m not a fan of Halo or State of Decay. Forza seems to be way off, no exciting news from Ninja Theory or from The Initiative. They will probably show more later.
I think the most unexpected thing that they showed was the campaign for Crossfire X by Remedy of all developers. Count me suprised and curious.
All and all, it was okay. Excited for the next one. Keep the games coming Microsoft, that´s what we gamers want the most from you. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@WILLBACRIMP Hi there friend. Enslaved was a pretty good game from Ninja Theory. It had technical issues, but it was fun and had an interesting ending. Now that they have more budget, they could make something cool like that, if they get the rights to it. Heck they could even get the rights from Sony and make a sequel to Heavenly Sword. That would be sweet. Cheers and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers. here are my wildest hopes for july 23:
Otogi 2 or reboot(Fromsoftware beginings)
Blinx 2(lot of fun with this one)
Jade Empire 2(I mean, it deserves a sequel)
Kameo Elements of Nature 2(Rare´s comeback)
Lost Odissey 2(One of my favourite JRPGs of all time)
Project Gotham Racing 5(Metropolis Street Racer made me love racing games and with PGR even more so)
Perfect Dark reboot (Third person would be nice, for me at least)
Fable reboot(Lot´s of humour, but needs a better combat system).
And then, of course, all the new games that the new Microsoft studios are cooking. All and all, very excited for this event.
Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. This is a very interesting topic of discussion. I love Spiderman. He is my favourite superhero of all time. But I CANNOT STAND FREAKIN SPIDERS. I can deal in them in certain games..... mostly. It was never game breaking...... Except for certain games. Like Resident Evil Remake for example. When I played the Game Cube version and got to the spiders location with the huge spider Boss....... I basically pressed the aim button a continuously pressed the fire button until I killed it..... With my eyes closed. Yeah, just like that. It has gotten a little better, but they still very much freak me out. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

@Medic_Alert Hi there friend. This is why I´m pretty excited for next july 23rd. As a gamer who loves videogames, in spite of the system their in, I was gonna be watching the event. But as a gamer who fortunately as a powerful high end PC, i´m even more excited for what these first party studios will bring to the table. All I want is more great games to play and experience. Here´s hoping they will show us some really good surprises. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. Test Drive Unlimited was one of my first games on the 360 and one of the very few I have all the achievements. I mean, the system had just launched and there were not that many games, which is normal, but the game felt different than PGR3, which was pretty great by the way, and a lot of fun. And indeed it was. Maybe this one can as fun to. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all

Hi there gamers. For me, I would say it´s Quantum Break. Remedy tried something new with this game with the junction points that change some parts of the game and the tv show sequences. I finnaly played the game on my PC and it was a very entertaning game with a solid sci-fi time travel story done right imo. Really enjoyed. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to everyone out there.

@TheDragonsMouth You should give it another go. It´s really good. Cheers and have a good one 👍

Hi there fellow gamers. Just like I said in the Pushsquare site: "The original Dead Space was a fantastic survival horror game and my very fist platinum. The second game was also really good. The third....... Well anyway, something new is coming to PS5? And maybe to XSX? That is always great news. Cheers and happy gaming to everyone out there.

GIVE IT TO ME. NOW! Pretty please 😉

Hi there fellow gamers. I only had the OG Xbox and the 360, so it´s the Xbox 360 for me. Turning on the system and playing Project Gotham Racing 3 (one of my first games) for the first time, I was like: "Is this even real?" Good times. And with games like Gears of War trilogy, Alan Wake, Test Drive Unlimited(underrated game imo), Lost Odissey, Ninja Gaiden 2, PGR4, Magna Carta 2, Dead or Alive 4, Mass Effect trilogy, and Forza Motorsport 4(wich was my first Forza game it it blew me away) the 360 really sold me on that generation. I still got my PS3 of course, but I loved my 360. Such good memories. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all.

It does make sense. With how things are right now, it´s best for a lot of these events to just avoid being submersed in information. We do need to make a stand against violence, racism, prejudice and hate. It´s not just Black Lifes Matter, is that ALL Lifes Matter. We´re gonna get the information and the games that we´ve been expecting, just need to be patient. Stay safe, cheers and happy gaming to us all. Peace.

@Royalblues Not a problem at all my friend. It is always good when someone decides to open up and talk about something meaninful in their lives, no matter what it is. I´m a guy who loves videogames since I was 11 and have been fortunate to have lots of differents systems and to be able to enjoy various games, is one of the things that kept me going on the most difficult times in my life. Glad you apreciate my list and thanks for sharing. Cheers and have a good one.

Like I said in the Push Square gaming site, It´s on my radar for sure. I do tend to prefer tird person shooters(or first person shooters if they appeal to me) that gives us powers and abilities to make a more different(and in my oppinion more fun) kind of play style. I just hope the game gets a bit more polish and has an interesting story besides the fun gameplay and loot system. Stay safe everyone and happy gaming to us all.

@TimG13 Hi there. "Microsoft have got the Xbox brand back on track with Phil, so now they need to wow us with new IP" This. So much this. It´s exactly what Xbox needs. Brand new IPs that are interesting and somewhat different from the established xbox franchises. This is why, as a gamer who loves games, I´m very interested in the PS5 reveal and Xbox first party titles reveal that is going to happen in the coming months. In these trying times, we need some good news. Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all.

@gingataisen That my friend, is a very nice vision. Cheers and happy gaming to us all.

@Royalblues Hi there. Want some good old fashioned Og Xbox games? Here´s some of my favourites: Ninja Gaiden Black, Jade Empire, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, Blinx Time Sweeper, Dead or Alive 3 and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory. Man I would love a new Splinter Cell game. Make it happen Ubi. Cheers and happy gaming to us all.

@ThePrettySenshi Hi there. Resonance of Fate is quite good, but really challenging and Bullet Witch is..... Okay I guess. It had a lot of potential though. Cheers and happy gaming to us all
