[QUOTE=2010JW;1664520723]Gotta love game pass. I'm glad microsoft is giving us an interesting story type game where your actions/choices dictate the future of the story. Love those types of games!
Boy I hope they don't screw the pooch on Starfield.. looks very promising
EDIT: Just downloaded Tunic, this is a pretty neat game srs feels like zelda[/QUOTE]
Finished Tunic a week or so ago. Epic exploration, rewarding puzzles, ferocious enemies, and it is zelda inspired yes, but this indie game is an action adventure title that ends up being so much more than just that. Little Fox goes on one big quest for sure! Some areas and a few Strong bosses will become unforgiving soon. So be ready. It’s charming graphically, but it’s challenging soon enough, I can’t say enough it’s like one of the best games I played this year.
One I’m on now is “nobody saves the world” which you’re a shape shifter it’s shaping up to be a solid indie title in the books.
Also doing it up in shredders revenge with a few good friends.

[QUOTE=PattBattmann;1664528993]I am just about as big of a fan of Halo and Gears as anyone, but I'll admit that Xbox needs some new IP series of similar hype and longevity.[/QUOTE]
for sure, but that ball is already starting to roll with more new IP (or old and unused IP) coming down the line. Not all AAA though, but im fine with that. Big variety of stuff.
Already released:
-flight sim
-psychonauts is now MS IP
Upcoming:
-Grounded
-Pentiment
-As Dusk Falls
-Starfield
-Avowed
-Perfect Dark
-Fable
-Hellblade now MS IP

As Dusk Falls reminds me of those story games from PS (Until Dawn, etc )

It's hard enough dodging the attacks, gotta beat his little minion and then face off against the main boss. He has two attacks, but the forward stab gets me every time. It's harder than I thought. It's like a mini souls game if you will lol. The graphics are good on your eyes. Man Shredders Revenge is fun as fukk! Just got to level 5 and it's a really fun game.
Just downloaded Nobody saves the world, I didn't know indie games could be this fun lol

It definitely would be nice to see new Fables.

[QUOTE=PattBattmann;1664546493]It definitely would be nice to see new Fables.[/QUOTE]
yea im hopeful for it. Playground Games has been working on a Fable Reboot since sometime in 2018 or 2019. They are the devs of the Forza Horizon series.

so how long did it take you to make this giant list without getting paid?

I assume you were attempting to respond to me? the "giant" list took about one minute. And i did not list everything. There are much more.
I can make a "giant" list if youd like

How do you know you're progressing through Forza Horizon 4? Is there an actual story mode, or is it just endless new types of races coming up each season?

the seasonal stuff is just the "live service" aspect. The non seasonal races are what gets you into the championship races. I THINK that's how it was laid out.
With FH5 it's laid out a little easier. There is, for example a "cross country "cup"" and a "street racing "cup"". Doing the non-seaonal races will give you points to unlock special events (such as a super long final cross country event) in each of those "cups" or "event types". But still, there really isn't an ending to the game.

I got into an event and if I try to do another type of race it tells me i'll lose my progress. Regardless this is a very very fun game srs. It grew one me. Somewhat has helped me get used to driving different cars/heavier cars (srs) especially going fast af
Not sure if I should jump into 5 already, though.
Who's on that As Dusk Falls time?

Was debating whether or not to get the Xbox X for this years Madden and I found 4 in stock at a local target. Going to pick it up tomorrow.

Just endless, empty, boring races and trashcade physics. Maybe Motorsport 8 will deliver something of substance.

not every racing game needs to aim for realistic physics.
Mario isnt a good platformer because they aim for realistic jumping physics. It's a good platformer because it's fun. Forza Horizon is considered a good game because it's fun (to most people who dont blindly hate on anything xbox)

He's just salty because gran turismo 7 was so bad they won't even use it for esports competition anymore. Replaced by assetto corsa. LOL.

Even with all the **** talking and trolling we do in this subsection, this might be the first person who's actually a big enough loser fanboy to go into an official Xbox thread just to talk **** about Xbox. I could never imagine going into the PS5 official sticky and talking **** about their games. Absolute loser.

Mario also has cartoon dragons, dinosaurs, stars, mushrooms etc so obviously arcade physics makes sense there.
Forza has semi realistic graphics with real cars, mixed with trashcade casual physics designed for children to pick up and play.
Both GT7 and ACC offer far more realistic physics requiring high levels of skill to master.
@2010JW pick up GT7 for a proper driving game, thank me later

it makes sense for Forza Horizon because its an Arcade style racing Game. hell, the dlc is floating islands in the sky with hot wheels tracks, some of which are anti gravity.
And the more realistic a games physics is, doesnt mean the more "for adults" it is.
Yea, GT7 is much closer to a racing sim...... therefore, gasp, has more realistic physics!!!! Your complaints make no sense. Uncharted 4 has "realistic graphics" but is outlandishly unrealistic in what it's characters do.

Damn, “Nobody Saves The World” is so good!

Sony crew apologizes for oneleg invading this thread as a sonycel, that is very Jaylike behaviour which we dont condone!

Now that Im also an xcel, I might as well make my first post here.
Thanks to gamepass ^ I played that game ... It's really fun, though I havnt gone back to it. Just patiently waiting for Plague 2 to release .... Not sure if I want to get it on the box or pc though. Will probably wait for a comparison video to see how big of a difference there is between masterace and xbox - Though if sony has good haptic stuff I may get it on that.

Tunic and Nobody Saves The World are among the best on gamepass but I understand tunic has since come to Ps5 and switch
-
I was a PlayStation mark
So odd I’m now switch > Xbox > Ps5
I ding know if my fault or PlayStation dropped the ball with its fan base
I used to say I only needed a PlayStation and a good bag of weed to be happy
Now it’s hard to be bothered with gaming on one

Where them black friday deals at...need a xbox series x
-
Octopath Traveler Is on gamepass Worth dropping hours into
-
loving my series X so far. but...i cant get into cyberpunk and cant play just 1 game. theres too damn many and having 2tb space aint helping
-
Been playing a bunch of gamepass games on Series X HDR with game optimizer mode on my OLED and it's insane. My PC can't even do this i don't think. I Like how you calibrate the hdr settings through the xbox and then the games either run through auto HDR on that setting or the newer games are made with HDR in mind. It's mind blowing. The games literally look like real life because of the wider color gamut and contrast between the really bright and dark areas.

Just bought a Series X Friday. Downloaded all the Splinter Cell games, GTA, and 2009 Mw2. FYI MW2 still has lobbies. No hacks so far
The dream is $5k PC and Playstation though
