@BacklogBrad That was part of the reason the other part was the name calling it a Wii U made people think it was an accessory for the Wii. So you had parents buying Wii U games with kids that owned Wiis and stuff like that. You are going to have the same thing with people and Switch and Switch 2.

Just wait till the masses get confused between Switch and Switch 2 like they did with Wii and Wii U.

No we don't need a mediocre RPG on Xbox. We already got the best Final Fantasy game on it already, Final Fantasy VI.

Still going to say Avowed. I am 30 hours into it and still loving it.

@Brigurugi I don't even bother looking at the sales anymore. It's as you said it's the same stuff over and over. Stuff I either already have or have no interest in.

As for the Call of Duty series I can see why they haven't been added to Gamepass yet. It's probably due to the fact that multiplayer on the older CoD games is a complete mess with hackers and modders some of them quite nasty too where they can access private information. They would need to severally fix them so it doesn't open them up to problems like law suits and the like and quite frankly they don't have the time to go back and fix older CoDs.

Avowed (Series X) Got to Emerald Stair and started exploring this region. Recently started using a spellbook and pistol.

WWE 2K24 (Series X) Continuing with GM Mode, we just had our second PPV and I am still in the lead with WCW.

Heroes of Might and Magic III (PC) I got the itch to play this game again so I started a new campaign.

Breath of Fire (Switch) Been awhile since I played this one. It's one of my favorite RPGs on the SNES.

World of Warcraft easily. Other picks would be Lord of the Rings Online and Star Wars The Old Republic.

Looks like I will be picking up The Show 24 for my baseball fix since Sony doesn't want to play nice and give us 25 on Gamepass.

@Ilyn Well if that is what you truly felt then you wouldn't have said that add ons are necessary to play the game and your first comment is invalid and WoW would be just fine on console.

@themightyant LOL that's probably why I start so many games and never finish them. After awhile I just get so overwhelmed with the side quests and the main story and then I look and go crap I have been playing this game for six months and I have this huge backlog. But then I try to skip some stuff but then my OCD kicks in and I feel that if I skip that I will miss something really cool or special.

@themightyant I have a friend like that lol. I tried playing WoW with him and I just couldn't. His thing is though he runs through a game like that then gets to a point where he's not geared right or too low leveled and stops playing the game cause it sucks lol. He doesn't have that problem nowadays with games as much as he did years ago. That play style just leaves me thinking well, if you leveled up and get better gear.....

@jesse_dylan @Master_Cthulhu70 Yeah I just hit Emerald Stair myself and already I am thinking of what I am going to do for another playthrough lol. I too pretty much explore everywhere for me that fun. I want to see everything this world has to offer. I have also made it a point to craft as well which is why my weapons are currently as high as they can go right now. I just started finding the next craft materials I need to further up my weapons.

@Ilyn All add ons do is create a toxic community. It causes the elitists to bully, and harass players who don't use them which is one reason I don't raid in PUGs anymore. It splits the player base. As I said I have been raiding for years now with my guild and never used an add on, as long as you pay attention you are good. Add ons are just and excuse for elitists to act high and mighty and treat other people like *****. They forget the objective of the game is to have fun, meet with people and explore a world. Not be the quickest to down a raid or the fastest, it's not a competition, you want something like that go play go a sport or something not an MMO.

@FarmDog08 I am 28 hours in and just finished up with Dawnshore. I am guessing you are just rushing through the game.

Do we honestly have to have a hit every month on Gamepass? I mean who can even keep up with it to be honest. I am still playing Indy and Avowed and throughly enjoying them. There is no way anyone could have already gone through Avowed. If they did either A) They just rushed through the game B) Have to life C) Are fibbing.

@Ilyn Needing Mods/Add-ons for raiding or any part of the game is a misconception brought on by lazy players. I have been playing WoW since Lich King and never used mods or add-ons. You can play just fine without them. It just requires knowing your rotation and what to do and paying attention.

@FraserG I currently play horde on both retail and classic, I played Alliance from Lich King all the way to MoP years ago but when I came back to the game I decided to go Horde.

@jFug It's basically Fallout/ Skyrim with an Indiana Jones skin, which is not a bad thing. It's one of the best games that came out last year especially if your a fan of the movies. I will warn you it's not a FPS by any means. Yeah you can use guns but you gotta remember that's not Indy's style so going around shooting everything will make it hard for you.

Very excited that more people will enjoy this great game.

@FraserG That is interesting but I rather wait for a native version. It sounds like you can't raid unless you have a good connection.

Now the important question Fraser, Horde or Alliance 🤣

I wouldn't be surprised at all by Dragon Age, especially since PS+ owners got it for free this month on PS5. Also from what I heard that game was a disappointment and isn't selling well. They might as well recoup some of the lost by making a deal to have it on a subscription service.

@Hexamex-Tex It depends really. I can see them doing Classic no problem retail that's a whole different story. As for addons they are not necessary to play WoW.

@FraserG Ah ok I heard about that before I was hoping that they finally brought it over to console. Still will be interested to read how it goes for you.

Why is it always the same games on sale??

@FraserG Wait what WoW on Series X??? Did I miss something?

Avowed (Series X) Finished up with Dawnshore and now heading to the next area. Currently level 9

WWE 2K24 (Series X) Doing some GM Mode against my son and two computers. We just had our first PPV and I am currently on top with WCW.

That's probably it for me this weekend. Whatever it is your playing I hope you have a good one!!!

I would have to go back and look at my list but right now the four that come to mind are Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Avowed and Unpacking and Stardew Valley.

It depends on what direction they go. With their support for cloud gaming and play anywhere they really don't need to rush out a new console, especially if the rumors are true about this handheld console. I honestly don't need a new Xbox console right now, there is still plenty of stuff for me to play on the Series X.

So judging from their record it looks like early April is when they will have it.

Consoles have never been the main strategy for MS its been PC and software. The whole idea for the original Xbox was to have a beginner friendly introductory PC that could hook up to a tv and play PC games. After all Xbox is just short for Direct X Box.

How about No, I already have to many games to play.

I will wait till there's a price drop. I have 24 to play till then.

Handheld Xbox Go
Console Xbox Series X 2.0

Avowed (Series X) I am just about to wrap up Dawnshore. I have a few areas to explore and the main quest line to finish.

WWE 2K24 (Series X) Started up a GM Mode against my son. I am currently Eric Bischoff running WCW and he Teddy Long running ECW. We also threw in a couple of computers just to spice things up a bit.

World of Warcraft Classic Anniversary (PC) Still playing this one mostly just been building up my crafting lately.

Good luck @HelloCraigo on the new channel!

Would love to see a remake of Fallout 1 and 2.

I honestly think that's scummy of MS to do that a month later. It was their ***** up anyway so they should have let people keep the game.

My son and I still have his R2-D2 model Xbox 360 which has The Simpson's Arcade on it I just dont have it hooked up right now.

The 360 was an awesome system and for me was the first console that marked modern gaming. It was the first console that I connected to the internet and downloaded games for it.
Granted I had a PC before that and did download games on that but it just was different with a home console. It was the first console I played multiplayer matches on, mostly LOTR Conquest lol. It was also the first console my son and I shared.

Its still one of my favorite console.

The only IP I would be interested in MS getting from Ubisoft would be the Heroes of Might and Magic IP. I think it would fit in with MS perfectly they could even maybe give it to Blizzard to work make a new one.

I am not a big handheld person myself, I barely even play my Switch that way, usually playing it docked or if I cant setting it up on a table or something.

I had a Gameboy growing up and the only time I played it was on outtings like a vacation or a trip to Grandma's house. I also had a DS which I only got for the Castlevania games, and a 3DS which again I got for a handfull of exclusives.

If I have my option to play a game on a handheld device or a console/PC I am going to play it that way first. So I will probably pass on a Microsoft handheld. Great for those who prefer that style of playing or have no other way to play games.

As long as Peter Molyneux isnt around to hype it up I think they should be good.

@TheSilverFalcon No one said it was new to Gamepass, just that it's now available on Gamepass.

Still surprised that they didn't do a Blizzcon this year especially with it being the WoW 20th anniversary.

Damn it's been a year since Eiyuden released. I need to get back to that game at some point but with Avowed taking up all my time.....

More of the same for me this weekend.

Avowed (Series X) Really enjoying this game alot, I find it relaxing just exploring and doing the quests. Still doing side quests around Paradis before moving onto the main story. I believe I am level 7 right now. Really enjoying the combat and just learning about the world.

World of Warcraft Anniversary Classic (PC) Going to try and do a few dungeons tonight Wailing Caverns to be precise and maybe Shadowfang Keep OG. Been years since I have done either of them so it's going to be fun to see what I remember.

Sims 2 (PC) Mainly dinking around with this game but then again isn't that what Sims are all about.

I also would like to get back into Indiana Jones if I have time this weekend but we will see if I have time.

@NintendoByNature I use to get excited for the sales but now it's not even worth it at this point. I guess that's good cause that means I can get into my backlog.

I really don't follow the hype, because in all honesty it just ruins the game, because nothing ever lives up to the hype. Unless there is some huge game breaking bugs that make the game unplayable, then I am sure it will be just fine for me.

Why is it always the same games on sale? I either already have them or not interested in them.

Doesn't matter to me, I never played the OG THPS4 so it won't bother me. I will be mainly playing 3 as that was my favorite and the one I put the most time in.
