    XBL Deals - 2018

    They both are light in "traditional" content, such as combat, narrative, and leveling. However the similarity ends pretty quick. In NMS, the main system intended to hold players' attention is the procedurally generated world. The moment a player sees repeats, the game loses its magic. In SoT...

    XBL Deals - 2018

    I got Full Metal Furies at launch. It's a shame they hid 40% of the game (puzzles and secrets) prior to launch. At a glance it looks like just another cutesy brawler. In a time when steam is saturated with similar titles, I can see why consumers and even reviewers didn't bother looking further...

    XBL Deals - 2018

    My recommendation for Sea of Thieves is Game Pass as well. At least check out the gorgeous water and coop sailing controls (solo on a smaller boat works fine too), but a lot of people are not going to like the game at full price: lack of tutorial, no stat progression, ground combat is fine but...

    CAGcast #533: Nerdy Gang, Nerdy Gang, Nerdy Gang

    Most people are just saying "maybe stop doing a thing that is offensive", not calling for Dr Disrespect to be suspended or anything similar.

    What is the comedic effect attached to a generic Chinese/Asian accent? Some related examples off the top of my head: using a French accent in association to a lady's man, British accent to sound snobbish, German because it sounds harsh and scary, or some form of rural American accent to sound...

    XBL Deals - 2018

    Been playing Full Metal Furies (from the devs of Rogue Legacy) solo, and the game is kicking my ass (didn't help that I chose the higher difficulty characters). But thankfully the game saves progress (coins, xp) after each wipe, so I slowly saved up enough to upgrade stuff. Each character (out...

    XBL Deals - 2017, Part II

    I bought the $25 regular version, and really enjoyed the ~4-5 hr long campaign. You do need to know the story from Injustice 1, otherwise you'll be very confused to the state of things, and why certain characters are not in the game. I liked the writing and cutscenes, and mechanics of 2's...

    CAGcast #527: Poe Strikes Back

    I don't pity Disney and the directors on this. If you want to tap into the enthusiasm (cough, cough, wallet...) of the fan base, then I have no sympathy for you when the fans are upset over continuity and treatment of fan favorite characters. Re old characters: Han was even more of a loser than...

    NBA Jam still came in 3rd for me I guess Xbox doesn't log the PC play time on play anywhere games, otherwise Horizon 3 would be #1 by far

    Free for PC/STEAM The WORST X-com Game ( X-com Declassified) on Humble Bundle!

    played about 4 hours, it's a fine sci fi game (set in thje 60s, which is kind of cool), with competent cover-based shooting and squad commands the xcom name drew more sneers than it deserved

    XBL Deals - 2017, Part II

    yeah, the story and characters are pretty strong for an open world game. the mission structures got way too grindy so I fell off. I would recommend anyone not interested in playing to at least go watch the opening scene (not exactly the first scene, but right after tutorials) on youtube...

    Wonder boy is super cool, it can switch to 8-bit retro look on the fly, and even supports the passcode system from 1989. Also very very hard (I think even shipwreck tweeted about its difficulty shortly after release?) Somewhat unfortunately, Cuphead ate its lunch on looks, retro-ness, and...

    One of my best friends visits me for a weekend every year. We spend at least 5 hours each time dunking on LeBron and Wade. He's not heavily into gaming these days, so 2K is too much to pick up. I cannot get into NBA playgrounds--random player cards?? extra points for perfect shots?? 360 BC...

    first day with the X... played NBA jam (somehow feels more blurry? might be TV settings etc) and Sands of Time (looked clean, but the animations and camera felt dated at times, didn't stop me from putting a couple hours into it though) everything else (larger) is still downloading...
