I think I’m half way or 2/3rds done with shenmue one on the collection for Xbox, haven’t played the game in 18 years but I still really enjoy it. I’m taking my time but I don’t think I’ll see the cherry blossoms bloom this time since it’s still December. Fantastic game

Holy hell Halo 5 drat near sunk the rest of my available hard drive space. Is there a goon recommended external hard drive, or will any decent one do?

I recommend buying an enclosure for a PC hard drive. Other than needing an extra electrical outlet there's no downside and you can get much more for your money. I got a 6TB 7200rpm one for relatively cheap.

Shenmue is good regardless of the year. If Criterion had a video game publication arm, it’d be spine #1

Assuming criterions are chronological, itd be something like Tennis for Two, Pong, Tetris. If its advancements in gameplay design its... well its still probably one of those plus Adventure. If its entirely narrative based then its still Adventure.

Not saying those other games wouldnt be in it, but unless I was needing an immediate cash infusion to jump start the rest of the collection they wouldnt be my first choices.

Depending how you view it is “Best game ever” the criterion for number one or is it “most influential” and how do you measure that one.

What really matters is a criterion collection for games is nigh impossible since thats what an HD remaster is and all of those introduce new issues which means youre not getting the definitive edition.

So I signed up for the 2 months of Game Pass for $2 this morning, and I was always under the impression that there was only ~10 games or so on rotation at any given time. Boy was I surprised when I saw the full list. Like, good god, this is all anyone pretty much needs to keep busy on Xbox. MUCH better service than I initially thought.

If Geometry Wars 2 is backwards compatible I remember that being a really fun XBLA game on 360. It's a twin-stick shooter, and if you like that maybe try Guwange as well? Guwange is more classic arcade bullet hell but also really fun.

What's up with these system updates? It downloaded super fast but then it took like an hour to verify (whatever the hell that means). Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things but annoying when I want to play.
