I was surprised how bad Super Lucky's Tale was.

I've only played the original on Oculus Rift, but I can't imagine how it would be worth anyone's time without being in VR. poo poo like finding hidden items by actually moving around things to see from a different angle was cool as hell. Without that, it's just a milquetoast version of a genre that went stale decades ago.

I felt like it was built for Xbox, and the PC version always seemed like another bad console port at the height of bad console ports.

I think those games were def PC-first, though. The UI, etc. didn't seem at all like console port garbage. I dunno, it's been like... 15 years since I played this on xbox1 so maybe I'm remembering wrong.

In the case of KOTOR at least Bioware went to the trouble of reworking the UI for PC. That was true up through Mass Effect.

I know the reception for Crackdown 3 has been awful, but I decided to swap EA Access (which, due to missing the renewal date I still have a year of) for Game Pass, is it still a waste of time for free?

The point of Gamepass is to try everything out that you wouldn't pay full price for so just download it.

Also the reception is bad because its like 6 hours long and not particularly innovative, not that it isn't fun for what it is. I enjoyed the heck out of it on Gamepass but if I had paid 60 bucks for it I'd have felt almost as much of an idiot as someone who bought Masters of Orion 3.

I couldn't get past the horribly implemented PS1 Era auto- targeting and was bored after one hour (1/6th of the game).

But it's free so you should definitely find out for yourself.

I'm having decent fun. It has some obvious flaws but for free it's good as a very brainless constant-doing things game. Like the person above said, if I paid $60 or even 20-30 for this I'd be kinda pissy but as part of the big gamepass blob it's good, like watching kinda garbage but fun anyway horror movies on Netflix that you'd never pay for but scratches a lot of itches.

It's like that friend you had in high school who never changed. You run into him in 10 years, and he's still the exact same. At first it's kind of nice, because it reminds you of when you were younger and maybe happier. But after a short while it just becomes tired and over. Then you start thinking "Did I really enjoy this friend that much? He's the exact same, he just looks a little different". Then you start thinking about the fact that if you had gone with that other High School, you'd have lots of interesting, award winning friends that only went to that high school, instead of the weirdos you got who went to both schools, often times only coming to your school after everyone at their old schools considered them old and tired.

I've been having the most annoying issue with my xb1x for the past week. The hardware works fine, but anytime I try to watch Netflix or do anything else that requires internet it just tells me to gently caress off. Nextflix and other stuff worked fine before this. It also works fine on my other connected devices. I went through every menu and submenu and also spent an hour or two banging my head against the lovely automated help system. Anyone know how to contact an actual person or have any other suggestions?

Is it giving the error “try again in a minute or so..” if so you should hard reset your router, and hard reset your Xbox by holding the front button down until it powers off. Restart both. Usually that clears what I only imagine is a cache or memory error and things should work again. If not that, you might try direct cat5 cable to your router instead of WiFi. I dunno, your post is asking for help but seems to be using colorful metaphors instead of any real descriptors that might allow us to figure out what problem you’re actually having. Seems like self-ownage almost akin to buying an Xbox in the first place.

Finished Halo 3 ODST recently and I'm now finally getting around to playing through the Gears of War series (currently on 2). Man, it's kinda nice to time travel back to 08-09. I think after Gears 3 I'll finally play Alan Wake after hearing so many good things about it.

Your device may not be connected to the internet. Please make sure your connection is working. code: N4-1-19

I've tried hard reseting the modem and system. There's little else I could find from googling and contacting support. No way am I stringing more cables around my apartment.

It's weird because I've been using this a long time with no problem but suddenly it shits the bed over the last week or so.

A bit of a shot-in-the-dark guess but maybe someone moved into your apartment complex and has their own Wi-Fi equipment creating interference that's loving with the stability of your connection. Can you try changing your Wi-Fi channel and then flushing your XB1's Wi-Fi profile and reconnecting?

That's a distinct possibility. Anyway I fixed it after randomly loving around with every menu on my xbox. When in doubt, just gently caress until you either fix it or gently caress it up worse. That's my motto.

What did you think of ODST? It's one of my faves of that generation, and I think it's really peak Bungie.

Alan Wake is a lot of fun, too, and it gets a lot of flak but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope you have fun with it!

I haven't played Quantum Break (is it on gamepass?) but from what I've read/heard it sounds like it didn't meet the full potential they were going for with their mix of story and unique game mechanics, which I felt Alan Wake did a decent enough job with.

Im glad you got it fixed but this is the hardest error to KEEP fixed. The N error codes are your local ISP’s net neutrality rating, a new thing since about late 2016 and the trump reorganization of FCC regulations. This code is basically saying that your ISP is over-regulating what can and cannot pass over the pipes, and your net neutrality rating detected by the Xbox is only “1-19” on a scale that ranges from 1-100, which is horridly low. Are you experiencing slow speeds elsewhere too? Possibly when browsing these forums sometimes, or watching liberal content on CNN? Gamer products will not work without a net neutrality range of >50-100.

Yeah we didn't know it but that was kind of an end of an era where DLC was slightly less poo poo and there weren't lootboxes everywhere.

ODST was pretty good, definitely nice to come back to "good" Halo after playing 4 and 5. I really enjoyed the soundtrack and I was surprised but glad to see another Nathan Fillion appearance. So far my order of Halo games is:

2>Reach>3>ODST>1>4>5

This is based strictly off the campaigns since I've never really been a huge fan of Halo's multiplayer. Although playing online matches in MCC is fun every now and then.

Quantum Break was sort of meh for me, I only gave it a couple hours or so though. I felt like I got bombarded with different power's tutorials in a small amount of time and got confused pretty quickly. I do want to get back to it someday, maybe if Alan Wake really strikes well with me then I'll dive back into it.

Yeah, I’ve definitely made it farther than I thought I could. The text prompts before you activate Assist Mode were surprisingly effective in keeping me from turning it on (though I definitely turned it on to get through a particularly horrible B-side sequence)

I never finished 360 ODST because it glitched out during my playthrough and somehow erased all my progress in the story mid-story. I had to redo missions if I wanted to continue; including the intro mission. :psyduck:
