I'm in a part of Yakuza 0 where to advance I need to beat a guy in Karaoke. I am unbelievable bad at this minigame. So while I decide if I really want to practice a bunch to beat it it looks like I'm playing Boyfriend Dungeon.

Art of rally is an immediate 2/5 stars because it has that stupid rear end account selection menu pop up on start up.

And as a result it doesn't start. Select profile just keeps popping up over and over.

It starts fine for me.

But I don't understand why the game demands to know your blood type :thunk:

It's usually a requirement for Entering motorsport events so maybe it's playing on that?

Unless you're joking about something else in the game that won't start for me and thus haven't seen for myself.

Every game needs you to choose an account if you're not already logged in...

It's part of the config screens you have to fill out after logging in.

Have you tried turning your box off and on already to try again?

Still doesn't explain why some games choose to prompt for the profile when it's already signed in to dashboard and I will harshly rate games that do it.

You can if you're ace go the cat route and if you have a bad relationship with your mother IRL you can turn off the messages from your mom.

Game has a lot of thought put into it for a 2 dungeon horny sword simulator

It�s so weird buying a server for a console game. I know it�s totally normal these days, but it was still kind of wild renting one. I like that you can apply gift cards to the server rentals, I mean even a low reward month will still cover most of it.

I played the preview build and it was weirdly engrossing/addictive. I can definitely see the appeal, but be warned some of the larger maps have an estimated time to complete of multiple hours.

They need the power of the series x or high end PC to simulate each blade of grass accurately.

e: even Xbox quick resume can't pause cutscenes in Mass Effect LE, I tried it last night and quick resumed to Shepard lying dead on a game over screen.

I can�t quite figure out exactly why but this made me laugh pretty good.

Does anyone play destiny 2? I�ve been playing it on the PC a bit and want to play on the Xbox too but does the game pass version come with all the expansions? When I looked at my Bungie account I didn�t see them listed oh see the Xbox version.

Yeah Ascent does make it hard to like, having sidequests labeled as recommended level 2 putting you into a level 10 zone is just a tad annoying. Just going to plow through the main story and set it to easy if it gets too hard instead of grinding out sidequests. Having fun with the RPG and the homing bullet burst assault rifle on controller, and just switching to a lightning hand cannon with autofire for the robot bosses.

Yeah, sidequests are not well designed overall and I dislike how the game sprinkles much higher level enemies into areas that should be otherwise appropriate for your level. You�ll have no way of knowing until you attack and then they swarm and murder you. At least there is no death penalty�

The game is pushing the original Xbox hardware to its limits - I�ve had �out of video memory� crashes while walking around the hub areas.
