Pretty sure Cities Skylines got pushed to 2024?

If you haven't been following the game, they also recently increased the PC system requirements and clarified that this is to play at 1080p:

The game is coming in hot. May be a real pig. The old system requirements were a 9th gen Core i7.

Sadly, no. It uses a new modern voice cast that's reappeared in the subsequent games. The music also feels a little weird since IIRC they recreated it using the original MIDI data from the PS1 disc as a base instead of hitting the original composer up for his high-quality source files.

It's a pity, Clancy Brown chewing up the scenery was one of my favorite parts of the PS1-era Crash games!

I’m a bit surprised Dead Space Remake is going to be on GamePass already. It’s not even a year old.

Consider yourself lucky. It takes some people 50 hours before they realize it’s a terrible game. Even sadder, there are others who never come to this realization and waste 150 hours of their life on it.

waiting it out for Dead Space was so worth it, also Ishin and Cities motherfucking Skylines 2, gamepass stays winning.

trying to think of what Blizz/Activision games I'd want to even play via Gamepass since I already have Diablo 4. It'll never happen but if they ever tried to do Starcraft 2 on console it'd be neat; those latest Age of Empires have decent controls for an RTS.

I'm fond of the credits intro, with main characters playing alongside Avenged Sevenfold, but mostly for Woods just getting up out of his wheelchair to rock out and saying "Oh that? I was just bullshittin'." He was crippled by shotgun blasts to both knees

It was released in January and I think it's usually 12 months, so I suspect it was a bit of an 'is it better if we push to game pass before or after the holiday season, also how does the likely Activision-Blizzard deal and the timeline for their stuff effect our thinking - if at all?'

Some decent digital sales on the Xbox store this week, including Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series at it's lowest price yet @ $9.99 and Pac-Man World: Re-Pac also at it's lowest price of $4.49. Gonna nab both.

It was still worth the money this year but not the embarrassment of riches of last year. The enshitification of Game Pass has probably already started.
