I was thinking about installing doom eternal again on gp and buying the pass that unlocks the dlc cuz it is 50% off. Was that any good?

I really liked doom eternal, parkour and all

The console version of Quake 4 ran terribly but that's a problem modern xboxen can solve via BC. Hope they get around to it.

I just realized I missed not only one Gears of War but actually 3, 4 and 5 of those that seem worth playing - is it worth playing them for the SP or should I just skip to 5?

Thought 1 was good and 2 was amazing, am enjoying Tactics right now

Something that's not ready to announce yet, according to the Quakecon intro speech.

MachineGames, the Wolfenstein people, are working on an Indiana Jones game of all the things.

I was in your exact shoes and skipped straight to 5. Also quit halfway through because it’s just not that impressive anymore personally. More Gears with a dumb sailboard in a level hub. Something happens after that but I’d seen enough.

If I was looking for someone to make an Indie game I would definitely look at giving it to the people who just did a bunch of "lets go kill a bunch of nazi's" games first.

Ya thanks, I started playing 3 and will probably just skip to 5 if I can get my buddy to join in unless it gets much better by the end of act 1 of Gears 3.

Loaded up doom eternal pc on gamepass, I forgot how good this game is. Runs so smooth and everything can just go so fast.. I’m just playing on Hurt Me Plenty though the harder levels are too brutal :haw:

Might use my ms points to get GCs for the year one addon for the dlcs!

Confirmed. Available August 23rd on PC Game Pass. Not the Director's Cut, but the store page says it has the Half-Life stuff from the Steam release.

Console port is probably too much work for a version that would sell very few copies (Game Pass money wouldn't remotely cover porting costs), especially since that would likely require a new set of servers interfacing with Xbox. Despite the game's solitary nature, it does leverage the cloud quite a bit. People can somewhat anonymously donate and receive equipment (you don't control who it goes to, you make stuff up for grabs), the world is modified in various ways like footpaths are formed based on how people on your random server travel, etc.

It's also curious that it seems to be the original PC version of the game and not the Director's Cut. Fortunately, since the vanilla PC version was a later development this does include some of the new DC edition components like Hard Mode and some of the extra in-game content, it's a partway point between the PS4 version and the PS5 version.

It's more because the game is published by Sony on consoles. The PC port has a different publisher.

No Director's Cut is a bummer tbh, was looking forward to it since I already played through the original version on PS4

Although that link mentions a lot of the same stuff like frame rate that is on the Steam page for the updated version? Who knows I guess

Ah yes, 505 games. I just checked on my Steam Deck and Sony Entertainment doesn't show when booting it up (505 games does), but SIE is credited at the bottom of the main menu.

There is some content in this version that isn't in the PS4 version, although probably not enough to be worth a replay on its own unless you were going to replay the game anyway.

New content in the PC version that wasn't in the PS4 version.

- Photo Mode (later added to PS4 version via patch)
- Very Hard difficulty
- Some extra side content (cosmetics to find through lost packages) relating to Half-Life and Cyberpunk 2077, I think most if not all of it can be obtained relatively early in the game

Stuff you won't get without buying the Director's Cut on PC or PS5 include:

- Ultra-wide monitor support and a cinemascope mode
- I think on the PC version there are improved DLSS and Xe modes
- New gear and structures including a package launcher and jetpack. Most of these are unlocked through new injured porter rescue missions
- Race track and related vehicles
- Firing range including weekly leaderboards
- A mission chain to an old structure that also includes some new gear like a taser (excuse me, maser) gun

It'd be worth the $10 upgrade but I suspect that won't be an option.

Also worth mentioning is that Death Stranding's PC port is very very good and runs very well on some impressively low-spec hardware. Like any PC that can run Windows 10 comfortably and has some form of gaming GPU can run the game at 1080p30, and most newer PCs will do a full 1440p144 no problem.
