:xb1: Path of Exile: Synthesis (not sure how you buy this but it lists it as a new release)
It's new content for a F2P game. Everything is free. Just download (or update) Path of Exile and everything will be available. It shouldn't be a separate downloadable DLC, just a game update, as that's how it's worked for all previous expansions.

 
Welp... I've had Black Ops IV in my disk tray since the day after release when I found it used at Gamestop.  Just fired it up for the first time :)

 
For military/veterans:

The free 12 months of Xbox Live & Gears 4 is back in stock:

https://gamestogrunts.com/collections/xbox-one

Looks like the 2 year game pass was in stock earlier but went out of stock already.

Uses ID.me for verification.
Military/Vets:

Just checked the page again and xbox live AND game pass are back in stock, go get your freebies.

Sold out again

Those new release updates really slow my browser to a crawl.
Does it help if I spoiler all the content of the post for you? Is your browser automatically loading all the youtube videos or something? I spoiler each of them to try to not have them load for anyone who doesn't want to see them. Are you on a phone or a computer?

 
why does the name behind the voice matter?
The only thing that matters to me is whether or not the voice acting is good. In this case, unless they do some remastering of the voice track, it is not good. She sounds out of place against some of the more experienced actors in the game.

I think the issue many have is that they went for name over talent, and so far it shows.

I agree. While I don't have an issue in the slightest with Ronda Rousey herself, her delivery of most lines is.......bland. There are a few where she does nails Sonya's attitude, and involve Sonya being serious and/or angry (there's one intro with Scorpion about vigilante justice that comes to mind, that's her best delivery so far).

There was nothing wrong with Tricia Helfer's performance in MKX and maybe NRS could've kept her and use Rousey for mokap and/or facial likeness. But it is what it is On the other hand, I'm preferring Cassie's new voice actress (Erica Lindbeck) over the previous one (Ashly Burch).

Rhonda is definitely a step down as far as her voice acting is concerned. I have no problem with the person but she is not a good actor. I assume they used her for motion capture which does look good on Sonya in 11, but the voice acting we've heard so far is no where near as good as her previous actress, Tricia Helfer. Helfer sort of had some star power behind her name from Battlestar Galactica, but she's proven her voice abilities as EDI in Mass Effect 2 and 3, as Dare in Halo 3 ODST, and so on.

 
New Forza Horizon 4 achievements are live.  Doesn't look like everything is retroactive, but I should get a few immediate pops.  Haven't done many of the new stories that they added, so there's stuff to do this weekend.

Firefox on PC. I don't think putting the vids in spoilers stops them from being loaded.

 
why does the name behind the voice matter?
I just have a problem with Rousey as a person. A few years ago, when she lost her UFC title, she made a big deal about how she almost went into depression and was "suicidal" because she lost. Maybe it is just me, but when one goes into professional fighting, you should have a reasonable expectation you are one day going to lose. As someone that actually suffered with depression for years and had to deal with thoughts of killing myself on a regular basis, I found it insulting. It more or less came off as a publicity stunt to generate sympathy and an interest in the rematch. It kind of proved my thoughts when she lost the rematch and decided to move on to greener pastures... You know... An organization where the fights are predetermined and she pretty much knows that she is always going to win?

On the Midway side, I feel like it is a gimmick because she is a popular name in the WWE right now and it might get a few people that weren't going to buy the game to get it now. I am also not a fan of gimmicks like that, especially when they cause a drop in quality in the product (even if it is just a voice actor in a fighting game).

Honestly, it is just a personal hangup. I have no problem with anyone that still plans to purchase the game and/or likes Rousey. It is my issue and I don't have any reason to expect people to agree with me.

 
Seems weird to me that they would get someone famous for Sonya but the rest of the cast are well known voice actors.

Can confirm some are retroactive for sure, and some definitely aren’t. I popped all 3 the British Racing Green achievements once I got in the game, as I finished that story a while back. Not sure how I popped the 30 star achievers for Isha’s taxis and Skill Streak, as i hadnt started those yet.

Meanwhile, I can confirm the Forzathon Sweep and A Race In The Crowd achievements aren’t retro active, as I know I’ve done those before, but got nothing.

I run Waterfox (a variant of FF) on PC and don't have any slowdown in this thread, with the max (100?) topics per page. I also have upwards of 30 tabs loaded at any given time and around 20 addons, more than a few that haven't been updated in years and are probably causing problems. My browser doesn't slow down until it has been open for days/weeks, and ends up using over 10gb of my RAM. I just close it and open it again to fix it, but I realize I can just free it up in the about:memory settings. I'm sure a fresh install would do wonders for me, but I'd rather not bother.

 
Seems weird to me that they would get someone famous for Sonya but the rest of the cast are well known voice actors.
Maybe she approached them, or WWE has something to do with it. I don't follow her at all, maybe she mentioned Mortal Kombat or video games in the past so they reached out to her. That's basically what happened when Fallout New Vegas had Matthew Perry.

I could see a few wrestlers having interest in this kind of thing, or being more obvious to scout than her based on their gaming related activities though, like Xavier Woods, or Japan's Kenny Omega. Rousey is probably top of the list for women though, and even most male wrestlers, since she is known outside of wrestling.

 
Can confirm some are retroactive for sure, and some definitely aren’t. I popped all 3 the British Racing Green achievements once I got in the game, as I finished that story a while back. Not sure how I popped the 30 star achievers for Isha’s taxis and Skill Streak, as i hadnt started those yet.

Meanwhile, I can confirm the Forzathon Sweep and A Race In The Crowd achievements aren’t retro active, as I know I’ve done those before, but got nothing.
I've completed the British Racing story, but I don't think I've touched the taxi or skill ones. There's a thread on the Forza forums about the achievements popping without the requirements met. And over on TA, more people have the 30 star achievement for each story than the first chapter ones.

I think I only missed a "sweep" once, missing 1 daily challenge, so I should get that next Wednesday.

I didn't complete all the winter challenges last week, skipped the playground championship since the prize was just a super wheelspin, but I usually do all of them. The trial last week was probably the easiest one I've done since the PI restrictions were so low.

I wonder if the community championship races will count toward the blueprint achievement. And hopefully the seasonal championship ones work correctly. Apparently one of the championships this week is a repeat (frequent on Fortune Island, but I think a first in the base game), so I hope that doesn't cause problems for the achievement. Though it shouldn't be too tough to just win it again even if there are no rewards.

Should also be able to get my last 2 FH1 achievements this weekend. Will be doing a session with someone from TA on Sunday for the last Rally DLC achievement, then will start a new save on my 360 and progress enough to get the FM3/FM4 loyalty cars for the final pop.

Well..... shit. I'll take it. This restores my faith in MK9.

Reverse psychology does work ;-)
Don't take it just yet. The product page now shows Free, but the checkout page shows $19.99 + tax. Caveat Emptor!

They almost got me. The listing page says FREE then changes to $19.99 at the checkout page.

I got the achievements for getting 30 stars on Isha's Taxis, Skill Streak and British Racing Green. I only have 14 stars on British Racing Green and haven't started either Isha's Taxis or Skill Streak.

Rumor going around is that MK9 will be BC around when MK11 is released. Not confirmed, but seems to fit with what they've done lately. Where the previous games become BC when the new one comes out(Ace Combat 6, RE: CVX).

 
YES! Crackdown 2! Finally!

and it's free? I have to hook up the 360 to upload my save.

Still have my Pre-Order armor after all these years :D/  :D/  :D/  :D/

Caved and purchased two 360 games from the sale (Fight Night, C&C3). I'm sure they will go free with gold for the rest of you now.

Were the Final Fantasy XIII games back in November the most recent Xbox One X enhanced 360 games we got? And no Xbox Original games since what, April? There also seems to be a slowdown in old Xbox One games getting X patches. Even promised patches like Minecraft and Darksiders 2 have fallen off radar :(

I wouldn't bury that Minecraft update just yet, although at this point I think they are hanging on to it much longer than it's worth kind of like Crackdown 3. I dunno Minecraft battle royale with graphics and such, I won't even pretend to know what kids like with Roblox being a thing. Take away the whole entire last 2 weeks of THQ and bad PR and I still wouldn't think they are going to really go revisit and patch Darksiders 2, 3 barely sold. Their entire catalog looks borderline something interesting or total disaster.

Edit: there was a lot of battle royale in Roblox get to the top of the tower just survive type stuff, I didn't play it, I heard about it

ok double edit: I played it for the achievements

In FH4 I was able to get the achievement Skills without playing all 10 chapters. Played the first 3. In chapter select scrolled down to the last one and was able to select it with out play chapters 4-9. Played 10 and it popped. Wasn't even trying to cheese it but once it started the last chapter I was curious if it would pop or not.
