Cassette Beasts so good. It's like if Nintendo actually continued their sprite based Pokemon games after B&W.

Adios - wasn't this quite good?

Planet of Lana good so far. As others have said, a bit lighter than Limbo, Inside or Somerville which is no bad thing.

Excited for Amnesia as well.

EDIT: Also - although no-one still cares, Halo Infinite is on a very long road to redemption I think. They are increasing the pace of new content and finally adding an account level progression system (rather than only battlepasses). If they can get any form of PVE up and running so much the better.

Excited to try Rune Factory 4. I played 2 or 3 a long time ago and had a good time.

If anyone enjoyed Stardew Valley, give Rune Factory a look. It's the game that SV shamelessly copied everything from (and did a worse job IMO).

Go into your Xbox settings and change your console location to New Zealand. It won’t help you with an online game like Diablo 4 but I was able to play stuff like Forza and Elden Ring like 18 hours early.

There is an option to change the time separately. Do I need to change that too?

They should put Daggerfall Unity on Xbox. So I can try it out for an hour or so before going back to Skyrim.

Scalebound was still a game about fighting with your dragon buddy while wearing Beats By Dre and was therefore way more interesting than Redfall ever looked.

Sure, with the 4 days early access.. 3 days and half, if you consider servers saturated. 2 days.. would anyone image they wold make a maintenance in the mid of a early access? [ 1 days, the servers doing maintenance for the release day easly access.

note: hopefully is only 2 hours of server troubletimes and not a lot of poo poo

On my timezone is tomorrow anyway.

Can anyone explain this product? Why is someone making new, 360-style Xbox controllers (but they are clearly actual modern series controllers, cause they’ve got the capture button) Do people actually like the 360 aesthetic that much?

Hyperkin also made the remake of the Duke controller so yeah it's probably that.

The pirate code is really more of a guideline, than actual rules.

I like those and the price, but literally everyone in my household will be confused by them because I still have a 360 setup near the tv.

I'm not a strong proponent of either the 360 controller or the Xbone controller. They're fine. :shrug:

nostalgia

the 360 is 18 years old now. people with disposable income had it as their first console.

360 is retro now, OP

(i own a Hyperkin Duke controller myself)

Off the top of my head, here's a list of first-party Xbox games that were announced multiple years ago and haven't been seen in any form since at least 2021:

Fable
Avowed
Everwild
Perfect Dark
Contraband
Indiana Jones
Outer Worlds 2
Hellblade II
State of Decay 3

I'm not expecting every single one of those games to show up at the showcase, but we really ought to be seeing most of them resurface at this point

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

None of those exist. Phil has redirected all of Xbox resources to making vampire survivors clones.

70 percent of the people who worked on Prey left Arkane Austin because they didn't want to work on multiplayer junk. Great job Zenimax. Also, hopefully Xbox isn't as hands off with some of this stuff in the future. Double edged sword I guess. Should have just cancelled that poo poo.
