Anyone having trouble with GamePass Ultimate and Play Anywhere titles on Xbox? Can't get Timespinner to start.

Scratch that, how about ANY GamePass games?
 
Last edited by a moderator:
So I’m preordering gears 5 only if I don’t have game pass right?
Yeah, not much of a reason to buy it at launch if you already have GamePass, unless you want to support the devs more directly. If you have GP Ultimate like I assume pretty much all the regulars due thanks to the $1 deal, then you still get the 4 day early benefit of the $80 version, and I think all GP users get the Terminator pre-order bonus.

 
Banner Saga 1's final fight is BS. I gave up and knocked it down to easy difficulty. Beat it on the first try. Poor game design. Hadn't died for 8 hours in-game, then at the end I try to beat the boss 10+ times and it comes down to trying to cheese him into not physically being able to reach me by surrounding myself with his bodyguards.

And don't even get me started on how poor the isometric view is on console. Many times I literally couldn't see behind characters, and accidentally chose a wrong space. Give option for top-down view at times?

Anyway, onto Banner Saga 2. Game series is as addicting as cotton candy on a ferris wheel.

 
I'm also having issues with GP, it's telling me I'm not subscribed and my controller keeps disconnecting. I thought it was because I switched to a new one yesterday.

$600 for a Gears Elite Controller which will eventually wear out. No thanks.

 
I’ve had that happen before, a hard reset of the console fixed it for me. That’s unplugging the power for a few minutes, then plugging it back in and starting it up. Worth a try.
It happens every so often. It seems more troublesome today than normal. I did two resets but I’ll try unplugging it for a bit. Thanks.
 
How's the Ducktales remaster hold up for someone who remembers the TV series but has no nostalgia for the original game (ie I never played it)?

Edit: It looks like, according to TA, that there's also a physical release with 1000g GS, so the game should still be available if you can find it after the delisting.

So yeah, purchased Ducktales Remastered earlier today via web browser, got home, turned on the ole X1X and it wants me to purchase the game again and doesn’t show as owned. Not sure if this is part of the ongoing outage or what. Shows as purchased online but not on the Xbox store and it’s not in my ready to install list. Lovely.

Update: Finally working

It looks awesome, plays awesome and nostalgia is strong. Played first level and I loved it. Looked sharp on the 4K.
 
I have mK11 disc, works fine. Even SW Battlefront 1 via GWG loads up. All other game pass titles like Crackdown 3 and Sea of Thieves aren't loading, nor Supermarket Shriek. Dammit

Not picking up anything this week. Deals dont appeal to me

Edit: never mind. Even MK11 via disc is giving me errors. Going out to get some sun and breathe in some fresh air

I’m not having much luck with games loading up. Amazon Video worked for me. It feels like a sign to grab Spider-Man since it’s on sale.

It uses the animation style of the original series and not the terrible remake series on Disney XD. That abomination.

Are we going to have this conversation again? While I thought the first few episodes were just fair, the series is really good and my kids love it. My daughter is really into the story of Della Duck.

You just sold me on it! The remake is the worst thing I've seen since Happy Death Day 2U. Disney should be so SO ashamed of themselves for disgracing one of the greatest cartoons ever with this garbage.
 
Oh shit, a new Tool album is out at the end of the month, first in 13 years!

Which is funny, because the original creator of Scrooge McDuck hates the cartoon and thinks they ruined his characters.

Ya’ll have too much time on your hands if you are watching Ducktales cartoons. Time is much better spent looking for deals on games and watching your backlog grow.

Pfft, with Game Pass I can have my backlog grow on it's own, leaving me plenty of time to do other things. Game Pass. It's a free backlog!

Also is it weird all this Ooblets stupid Epic Games exclusivity whinny Steam fan boys news is selling me on the game more?

 
I was trying to buy Ducktales remastered directly from the Xbox website (my father-in-law currently has my 360), but it keeps giving me an error page when I hit "Buy Game".  I know it's too early for it to be delisted already, so maybe it's just high traffic?

I'm trying to buy the game on my :360: and cannot connect to XBL at all.

EDIT - And also issues with the website.

I bought Ducktales yesterday, but now when I navigate to the store page, it doesn't say the usual "already purchased." Has me somewhat concerned, can't check my install list until I get home.

Edit: purchase history on account.microsoft.com shows the purchase, so it's probably a temporary problem.

I also don't see the "Already Purchased" either right now. I just bought it a few hours ago and already installed and played it for a bit. So who knows what's going on.

When I bought it yesterday there were two, one to buy and one redeem only. Maybe this is the issue? There’s also been lots of login store issues today so that could be it.
 
Pfft, with Game Pass I can have my backlog grow on it's own, leaving me plenty of time to do other things. Game Pass. It's a free backlog!

Also is it weird all this Ooblets stupid Epic Games exclusivity whinny Steam fan boys news is selling me on the game more?
I don't think its weird at all, actually I am right there with you. Had no idea this game existed and probably wouldn't have given it a thought on steam but the way people are freaking out about it makes me want to support the devs right to put his game where ever the hell they want. Already feel like im missing out not picking up the free games on the epic game store anyway, might be time to finally download it.

 
Oh shit, a new Tool album is out at the end of the month, first in 13 years!
Not sure if interested but it seems you can get this crazy special edition that includes some sort of 4" screen with speakers that plays some video? Pre Order on Amazon.

Fear Inoculum is the long awaited new album from TOOL, and the band's first new album in 13 years. The album will be available digitally, and in a special Limited Edition physical package that includes a CD in a tri-fold Soft Pack Video Brochure featuring a 4" HD rechargeable screen with exclusive video footage, a USB charging cable, a 2 watt speaker and a 36 page insert book and MP3 download card.

 
Cheevo hunters and GamePass quest people, check out Supermarket Shriek. Played about 30 mins and got 10 achievements. Fun little game.
Thank you for this recommendation. 14 achievements in just a few levels.

For anybody as confused about what it is as I was before playing: It's a 2 button race against the clock/score trial/time trial game. LT and RT together make you go forward, pressing 1 or the other makes you turn. Can be played single player or with a local friend.

Counts for the ID@Xbox Quest this month.

Yeah I went to amazon earlier, saw the $45 price and laughed.
Read what was included, 30 seconds later I’m hoping amazon doesn’t crush it.

Damn you Tool, one of the few bands I’ll still buy their album on release. (I only buy CD’s and rip them myself)

It'll look great next to my VHS copy of Salival!

 
I play Apex Legends almost nightly, for a long time I’ve had my settings set so voice chat only works with Friends. A few nights ago I thought “You know what, maybe people on mics are trying to strategize with me and I’m not hearing it” so I turned it on so that I could hear everyone’s mics. The answer I came to is no, no one is strategizing. After a few days of my experiment I have now turned it back to friends only. I quickly got sick of disgusting comments being spouted about how bad I am at the game from my dead teammate that ran into an area without scouting it and now I’m cautiously trying to retrieve his corpse but he would rather I just run in like he did when he died.

If anyone wants to team up and actually strategize to get some wins, I’m usually on around 9pm-midnight pacific time.

Ya’ll have too much time on your hands if you are watching Ducktales cartoons. Time is much better spent looking for deals on games and watching your backlog grow.

Amateurs.

You gotta have your iPad propped up streaming cartoons on Hulu and your laptop open to Twitter while you scroll up and down a list of a couple hundred installed games, occasionally checking the install size or achievements list but never actually playing 98% of them.

Then you see a deal and buy another game. Your grandchildren won't have any monetary inheritance but look at all those games they'll have access to, assuming you give them your password since you can't technically transfer digital licenses even if you die and then on your deathbed wish you'd bought more physical media, only for a troll to bust into the hospital and tell you that you hate the environment for having a hobby and he's glad you're dying.
