New quests are up
Wolfenstein 2: TNC- complete any 2 achievements for 200 points

Life is Strange- complete 4 achievements from any episode for 400 points

MvC Infinite, Minecraft, Prey, The Golf Club 2, Monster Hunter: World, The Walking Dead A New Frontier, Life is Strange 2: Episode 2 and Resident Evil 5- Play recently added games for 100 points

Cities: Skylines, Farming Sim 17, ABZU and Zoo Tycoon: Ultimate Animal Collection- Complete at least 1 achievement from each game for 400 points


Also, today is bing's bday. Some extra points are up for grabs and a contest to win a surface pro or some traveling money. Put the guide and reddit link in spoiler tags.

Loading up Bing.com today (1am 6/3/2019 in U.S. for reference,) a banner over the homepage shows the above title.
Click on said banner.
The number 10 is created with various bing homepage photos, mixed in are green/blue/teal maybe? Lol postcards with the bing medal icon on them.
Click on one, pop up box says congrats you earned 20 pts. Click to redeem.
Once on your dashboard click the huge celebration box for 20 points.
Points are added and you are routed back to the celebration page.
There are a total of 4 of these bing cards for a total of 80 points (edit/ seems to be at least 200 points as others have stated!) follow the above routine for the rest and the points are all yours!
I have only just glanced at this and got my 80 points, we all know how sneaky Microsoft can be with their emails and other ways of hooking us up, so who knows if there is something else more to be had buried in the photos! Post any and everything you find! Hope this helped!
EDIT* Ricardinho0825 Said “ actually got 200 points from the page. Instead of manually searching for the postcards, I opened a random photo and kept clicking right. Every time 20 points show up, I collected them.”

Canada has a quest of downloading a game from the gamepass app. I tried and obviously it didn't unlock. That being said, I gameshare and I can never figure out how to install on the go so it might be a me problem instead of the reward problem for once.

Ya I forgot to put that one.

 
And not to nitpick because I appreciate the heads up on bing and the quests but the new game list is wrong on the Xbox it's still showing last month's new games. The app is showing more recently added games like Wargroove, Outer Wilds, Void Bastards and Banner Saga

It's going to automatically try to install to the console marked as your "home" console, the one you game share with.

Thanks for the confirmation so technically the other Xbox should auto install the game and I should get credit for it ;) (it only goes to queue on the app for me)

Xbox One Sad $50 off so $199, if that had been $199 at the start so $149 might of piqued my interest to throw next to my PC. Also the tidbit about PC hardware stuff seems like the start of the Xbox Game Pass for PC push. 

 
My total outside overview guess would be things are moving along in court proceedings with the dissolution of Telltale, and no one wants to be any longer involved with the products at all much less making actual money off their sale if there is some way Telltale's creditors could come calling. I'm honestly surprised a lot of this stuff has stayed up this long. True Achievements is saying the Physical/Disc based versions of Minecraft Season 1 called "Complete Adventures" do have all the episodes on the disc, which makes sense since it was probably the only time a Physical version came out after all the actual content was already completed. Ha kind of funny to think about that they probably added those another 2 episodes for Minecraft Story Mode Season 1 to probably grab some cash.

I spent the last 2 weeks in Europe and did not keep up with CAG, what did I miss?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing. However if they have Gamepass Ultimate in Europe, no one really knows how it works here in the states so let us know how to upgrade and how we can maximize said value during the upgrade process.

 
Void Bastards is such a good game. I really like everything about it.
The style, the enemy dialog, the looting, the crafting and the overall loop of the game.

I was playing Days Gone and Rage 2 but I'm hooked on a new favorite. Thanks GamePass.

It is now my favorite GamePass day one release with Ashen and Mutant Year Zero.

Square Enix announces a new IP called "Outriders" and will show it a week from today at E3.

Hopefully this is not another example of Square Enix "broadening their offerings to multiple platforms" and then releases the game on PS4/PC only. Although we did dodge a couple of bullets with "The Quiet Man" and "Left Alive".

Hopefully this is not another example of Square Enix "broadening their offerings to multiple platforms" and then releases the game on PS4/PC only. Although we did dodge a couple of bullets with "The Quiet Man" and "Left Alive".
They've already got their two big and multiplatform games Final Fantasy VII and Crystal Dynamic's Avengers game locked in, they can coast on just those and have a good show. Anything is better than the waste of time their conference was last year.

I'd totally play "The Quiet Man" for achievements

 
For those that have Apple TVs, Xbox One (and DualShock 4) support is coming in the fall with tvOS 13.

I always like to check what is included in these bundles to see what I might be able to cash out if I sell the crap I don't want. "Fortnite Save the World sold separately". I thought this was supposed to go free like a year ago already and yet they still don't even bother including it in an exclusive bundle.
They most likely included this wording because the last Fortnite bundle that came with the green and white skin didn't specify that it only meant Battle Royale, so there was a bit of backlash and they ended up giving all bundle owners either STW or V-Bucks if they already bought it. But yeah, it is kind of lame that they don't include it, though I assume it's to sell more V-bucks. If people can earn them already I'm sure they buy less.

As someone who plays STW, it definitely became a much lower priority for the studio. While they generally do some kind of event when a new BR season comes out, development on the main story and endgame stuff is slow going. At this point it is surely a "when it's ready" type date. They are working on missions for the final area, but I'm not sure it'll be done by the end of the year. As it is now, there is a LOT of replaying missions required to progress through the third world that is really hampered by the restrictions placed on you. And there are "announced" features like a cosmetic locker that have been know for a long time but without any news.

I won't be surprised if they decide to eventually just scrap the mode entirely, it seems like it must be a small team left on it. Just looking at how they've handled their other products in recent times gives me low expectations.

 
Canada has a quest of downloading a game from the gamepass app. I tried and obviously it didn't unlock. That being said, I gameshare and I can never figure out how to install on the go so it might be a me problem instead of the reward problem for once.

The Gamepass app on Android has an option which console to remotely install to. I had to change it since I Gameshare with my girlfriend and I manage all the downloads from my console to save bandwidth. It gets very confusing when different things get installed to different consoles at different times.

 
Finally got Fios set up in the new house and I'm getting 60mbs off of XBL. No buffering on streaming, and 4k content loads up at full resolution almost immediately. Very happy. The package deal they had on offer included equipment rental, so the Verizon issue router is included in the $80 monthly for 3 years. When that runs out, I figure I'll probably buy my own, but for now everything is working great and that's all I care about.

Not to grab this conversation and run with it, but that's exactly what I'm doing...so....anyway:

I just bought the "Google Wifi AC1200 Dual-Band Mesh Wi-Fi System (3-Pack) - White" from Best Buy. Does anyone have anything overly positive/negative to say about this?

Using Android and I don't Gameshare, but I had to add to the queue a few times before it finally checked off the quest. Funny thing is, it never queued to my X1. I had to manually add it.

 
I wish they just added rewards quests as big games come out instead of waiting until some arbitrary date the next month to add them, as this month doesn't even have a "complete all quests this month to get X points" to give the excuse for not doing that. It leads to me wanting to not play much of the games I want to play just in case they appear a few weeks later.
While it would be nice if they added the quests along with a game’s debut on game pass, I wouldn’t let it keep you from playing a game if you want to play it. The rewards are only a couple hundred points each. So even if you miss out on a quest, you only miss out on roughly $0.20-0.30 in rewards. It’s enough to make me try a game I might otherwise not though to try, but not enough to make me skip a game I was wanting to play

It's pretty great. I have three pucks around my apartment and it helped push through all of the wireless signal congestion of my apartment complex. Can d/l and play games wirelessly just fine
 
Slow news day.

A Gears of War retrospective book was just announced, out July 16th from Udon. Cool idea but it's being written by Arthur Gies of Polygon. Haven't heard much from him in the past but he's had some pretty fundamental misunderstanding and shit takes about certain games in the past. They do have a preview chapter up at the second link, and it seems decent there so maybe it'll be good.

Supposed video leak on Fable, though the original post is deleted and the mirror is dead. The quoted info is a summary someone posted to me.

Video is gone, but I snagged a screenshot of the info the leak gave.

  • First/Third Person
  • In Depth character creator
  • Completely Open
  • No guns
  • Can ignore main quest and never become a hero
  • Players can build towns, ties into main quest heavily if you get the bad ending and fail
  • Multiplayer
  • Unreal Engine

Albion and Aurora are gone. "Lands reduced to fables." The Spire was rebuilt and used by a mad king to wish that an asteroid would strike the planet. He also wished it would happen again in the far future. Eons later and everything is new (medieval themed, new continents) and you have to stop the destruction of the planet again. Theresa and a Heroes Guild are preserved on another planet via a demon door. Time Travel heavily involved in play. Jack of Blades returns.
Overall feels fake to me. Post was 5 hours ago, people posted the mirror within an hour, and the video hasn't been spread everywhere already? Nah.

Looks like Groupon has a Raise offer. $15 for $30 Raise credit, which you can use to buy discounted xbox credit at Raise:

https://www.groupon.com/deals/raise-gift-cards-15-for-30

Then get a 25 here: https://www.raise.com/buy-xbox-prepaid-gift-cards?priceMin=0&priceMax=25

And a 10 here: https://www.raise.com/buy-xbox-prepaid-gift-cards?priceMin=0&priceMax=10

Total is around $16 for $35 worth of credit? I think.
Not letting me buy it but I would if it was available. Great deal.

they are solid, but being dual channel they don't have dedicated back haul, some people will pair them with like power line adapters for backhaul, it may or may not make a huge difference, but for me, I had a bigger house and it pushed me in to an Orbi tri-band system for dedicated backhaul. Getting full speed back an forth all over the house is amazing

 
Something of note from the TA leaderboards... the default Site Leaderboard on the home page shows the top 20 TA scores on the site. Stallion83 is now down to third behind smrnov (who’s been I first for a at least a year now) and RedemptionDenied (with a big ratio boosting charge it seems). What’s more, it looks like Celtic Force isn’t that far behind in 4th.

Not sure what any of it means, but having been in TA for 9 years, it’s surprising.
