Unfortunately the sheep jumped on the band wagon hard for clair obscur...was obvious it would dominate....I played and completed both these games...both good games but my god the over hype for clair obscur and would defo say Kcd2 was the better game ...infact quite a few better games than Clair obscur in my opinion
Want a new cod ...not mw or black ops ..and please give us a proper single player campaign ... hopefully this years 'campaign' was down to the short development span
Yup not working for me ...and I actually planned on playing it again as my gaming schedule just opened up lol....but by time it's fixed I will probably have moved on
Meh not that bothered ..my lobbies ATM seem to contain one or two players who clearly live on the game and play it religiously and quite a few people who seem to be insanely slow
If you are past prestige 5 already I suggest you seek sunlight....I haven't even prestiged once yet and I'd say I've played a decent amount
Would like to give it a try but I just can't see myself getting around to it ...I have limited time and I am currently playing Mafia the old county ..and still have numerous games in my backlog I want to play already ....sigh ..so many probably great games I will miss
Cheating in general is just so sad ..but in a beta Sheesh ....I often forget their are so many no lifer hermits hidden in dark bedrooms doing nothing with their life
Played a few games today...and yeah majority of time atleast half the players just try to dribble down the pitch on there own..
The worst offenders are the idiots who get put in goal ..they get the ball as the gk and drop it and just try to dribble out with it ... obviously lose it and then they have an open net
Also get players who just refuse to defend in any capacity...lose it and just stand up near the opposition goal doing nothing ..wait for someone else to win it back then spam pass to me call
I personally like playing GK the most currently ..and you know actually sticking to it and not trying to obviously dribble past anyone while playing gk
They probably got the best deal they could have being on gamepass ...I was interested in the first ...but had zero interest in this ..and I only played it because it was on gamepass ..wouldn't have touched it otherwise...and I dont think many would have
I never was Into jprg and this was the first final fantasy I played when someone bought it me on ps5....got to say it bored me to tears and I have no desire to touch another final fantasy game because ofit
It's a pass from me then ...if I hadn't bought a laptop at start of the year then maybe I would have....
But for me to buy this it would need to be a proper Xbox handheld
P.s yesterday is going to fool alot of people....my missus and one of my kids was like omg it's an Xbox handheld I want one...and I was like erghhh I need to explain it's not quite as black and white as that
Honestly never tried these type of games as they just don't look like my thing ....I would give it a go and be happy to be proven wrong....but with so many games I've still yet to start that I want to play and the fact this is apparently a very long game...I just can't lol
Finished expedition 33 yesterday....timed it nicely and jumped in and did the first mission of doom today ....once I've finished this ..might finally get around to Avowed or oblivion or Atomfall ...or few other games I wanted to play that I've forgotten about ..that have become lost in the back log
Was considering it having not owned a Nintendo console since the Wii.....but nope won't be getting one.....they dont have basic features that I want ...they dont produce anywhere enough exclusives games to warrant owning one... especially when you know third support is by a country mile the worst
Linear game ...yes please I'm so fed up of open world games...on top of that mafia 3 main story was good but the open world elements dragged it down alot
@TheMule1983 already confirmed a next gen Xbox....and end of the day I have no exclusive loyalty to any one brand ..and at the moment Xbox offer ridiculous value...and I will enjoy it while it lasts...and if Xbox does go ...I have a ps5 and a gaming laptop....I will go wherever I feel the best gaming options are in the future
Now I have accepted that all Xbox games will go to playstation...I am quite happy....way I see it is ....just brings more money into Xbox for more games potential day one on gamepass
Why has my comment been removed for trolling.... When I basically said I am not fussed if the Xbox catalogue goes to playstation anymore...if it means Xbox gets more great games day one on gamepass
@oopsiezz Like many people have already stated to you ...the developer made a deal for the game to be on gamepass ....people pay for gamepass ....
think my missus would question my sanity if I told her I had also payed for a game I am currently playing on a paid subscription for and have no intention to play again once I've completed it
......I guess Xbox will just have to make do with the money from the many other games I buy...the subscription to gamepass I've had running since it was introduced ...the 17 years of Xbox live...and currently 4 series consoles in my house .....it hurts my soul that I am a part of this so called 'problem'
P.s playstation have to buy games because their service is *****(and yes I have it)....and yes all us sane playstation owners would defo be playing all their first party games if they offered them on a subscription day one (obviously), but we have no choice but to buy them to play(I actually rent alot...guess I'm part of the problem for them too )...Xbox gives you that choice
Sounds to me like you are just terrible with money
P.s so you clocked up 208 days of gaming on Xbox alone in a year...not taking into consideration sleep ...mate you have much bigger concerns other than what strangers spend their money on
@oopsiezz Lmao so if I bought 3rd party games that I'm already paying to play on a subscription...then Xbox wouldn't lose their 'identity' ....quite the take ....Xbox have literally just had their best month in a long time arguably....but sureeeeeeeee
Think the gaming world gets enough of my money thanks without basically paying twice to play a game
@oopsiezz So by your logic you should buy every game you play on gamepass if you like it? Why would I bother paying for a subscription service if that was the case ? That's what demos are for...you do you ..but don't expect people to piss away unnecessary money on top of the service they are already paying for
Isn't usually my kinda game but I just finished chapter one ..enjoying it...I am playing on story difficulty though lol...long gone are the days were id play everything on the hardest difficulty
End of the day does it really make a difference if Xbox former exclusives go to playstation? It doesn't make a difference to the game we are playing ......if Xbox is taking in big bucks from playstation...then that means more games developed and more games on gamepass day one
Clair obscur wouldn't be my usual type of game ..but I certainly am intrigued by it after playing about 6 hours....one of them games I find myself thinking about playing when I finish work ...so must be decent lol
Well long may it continue ...because I play alot more games for alot less money through subscription....I have no desire to own most games ..I will play them untill I've had my fill then move on
Did the prologue ...not sure what I make ofit yet ....the story has me slightly intrigued ... definitely will play some more and see how I get on ....probably not my usual kind of game but definitely going to give it a fair crack given the reviews
Why would Microsoft drop oblivion the day before this ..bet the developers aren't to happy about that....I have about 5 games I want to play right now FFS...this wasn't even one I thought I would play tbh with so many games on my plate ..but after all the brilliant reviews ..this game is going to be the one I'm playing...hope I can get into it
