Not this again. You don't think Call of Duty players said the same thing? Didn't stop it from being one of the most popular modes in the series. I bet when Fortnite finally transitions to F2P, there'll be those who complain about zombies there too. Survive is pretty much Phantom Pain without any stealth - or story. No complaints here.
Even if you ignore the problems of gameplay that doesn't fit with the source material it still doesn't change the whole it ain't Metal Gear unless Kojima's involved. If it had gone with a different name, then I think people wouldn't be so hard on it, but the fact that they just tact the name on there just screams cash grab.

 
This Is The Police and Troll & I are also $4.99.

Why isn't anyone talking about the Metal Gear Survive beta? The game is actually pretty fun.
Its not out publically in the US until tomorrow. Is there some early beta or something?

Anyway I think it looks more interesting than other zombie games, but Im certainly not going into it expecting a genuine Metal Gear experience, but more so a lot of good assets, mechanics UI, and engine being reused. (Which is a good thing they aren't charging a full $59)

 
I'm not sure about the US site but you can grab it right now on the Australian site. I played earlier and liked that it features heavily on melee weapons. The only thing is the game is pretty much impossible by yourself and you need to work with other players.
 
My wife got a laptop that I bought from Microsoft. Today I got an email with a $10 gift card to use for it....or I could sneak it into an XBL purchase. Hmmmm.....decisions, decisons.

Already on the 5th mission in Black. Apparently there are only 8 missions? I guess I'll beat it the first day It's out on EA Access at this rate. Maybe the second day.

Good game outside of the enemies being bulletsponges an aiming is really slow.

Not seeing what made the game so special outside of propane tanks lit erred everywhere so you can blow shit up 24/7.

I do miss these type of games though.

I don't know why I thought there were 9 missions, time has its way :) for sure it was short.
It was never truly inventive, but was solid fun. I don't think it moved the genre, but at the end of the OG XBox's life it looked stellar.
 
Just finished tale tells guardians of the Galaxy. I enjoyed it. Good story very similar to the movies.

It was a little slower at parts but the group dynamic is really fun and when they are all fighting together it made for some of the best tell tale stuff.

It's odd, that game simultaneously feels innovative and dated. Mostly it just makes me wish Criterion got another chance to make a game on modern systems like that.

Really short. Just finished it on Normal just over 4ish hours.

I thought it was a decent game but nothing too fancy. Kept me going till the end at least.

Criterion should have stuck to the Burnout series though. Damn you EA!

 
Just noticed I got some money back from all I bought in the holiday sale...so trying to decide between buying Halo 5, Red Dead +Undead pack, or MGS Phantom Pain. All 3 come out about the same price, just gotta decide which...Two are $15.99 with the game pass, one is slightly cheaper.

Headphones. So if I wanted to try researching a good mid range pair, what am I looking for?

What are the specs that actually matter? I won’t be blasting the volume I just want good quality. But if I see numbers on a box I have no idea which are important. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a feeling Phantom Pain is going to be GWG since It's only on the game pass for three months. But if your gonna jump then jump on it soon because that discount will go with it.

I know, got the message today that it's leaving gamepass at the end of the month. Though I just started playing it via gamepass, and I'm kinda hating the beginning hospital chapter. If I buy it it'll be because of the base building. The main reason I'm leaning towards halo 5 is just the fact it's 100gb and it's already installed via gamepass as well. I'd just hate to end up having to redownload 100gb in the near future.

Why would you have to redownload it? It can sit on your HDD until you have a valid license to play it.

 
Phantom Pain's eventual GWG is probably tied closely into Metal Gear Survive. It it comes before Survive's supposed March release date it would probably be pretty soon, like the first game for February. If not before it could be a while since they'll want people to buy the new game. MGSV was just PS+ like a month ago.

 
Confused, I can't find the new Godzilla on Netflix on my Xbox. I can find and watch it on my phone and add to my list, but it still doesn't show on console.

Amazon has 3 months Xbox Live for $15 with the extra 3 month promo. Ordered one and waiting for second code.

Edit: Officially dead. Prior orders are being fulfilled .

So Red Faction Guerrilla maybe next on the HD'er remaster train. I'll definetely buy that when it goes under $10! No greater joy than making my own doors and killing all who oppose my evil carpenter skills.

 
Metal Gear Survive Beta is up.

Time to find out if Konami is ashamed of their words and deeds.
I was going to check it out, but at this point I don't even want to add a digit to Konami's beta participation numbers. I'll check it out on Twitch, probably never going to touch this unless it's GWG at some point.

 
Yes, I got it on PS plus and think it is worth this price. But expect it will go cheaper or gold at some point. Less funny then other double fine games but entertained
Thanks! I have a few more days to think on it. I'm REALLY trying not to get anything before I start playing more backlog but I've been interested in broken age for a bit.
 
The bonus episode for Life is Strange: Before the Storm comes out on March 6 for those interested in "games that look and sound like indie/foreign films"  :whistle2:

https://twitter.com/LifeIsStrange/status/954016553208606720

Hope it adds achievements as well (unlike the bonus episode in Resident Evil Revelations 2), because....why not?

Could this potentially mean that Microsoft gift cards will end on Bing Rewards on June 30th?

EDIT: How do you add images here?

For some reason I don’t have Magic the Gathering in my ready to install list. Can’t imagine I wouldn’t have grabbed it with GwG.

To add an image to a post for display in the post, put [imgMattOK] before the URL and [/IMGMattOK] after the image.

Take out MattOK, there you go.

Classes have officially resumed and my goal of finishing ReCore before my cheap Game Pass sub expires may be in trouble. I don't know grad school doesn't factor gamerscore into GPA, but here we are.

I think Deck Nine already confirmed there isn’t going to be any new achievements

It's currently showing up in the xbox one games ready to install list for me.

If you're like me, you sort your RtI section by Newness. It wouldn't be in that list by when it was added to the BC program, but by when you "purchased" it. Apparently I bought Sniper Elite V2 a few years ago and the total in my RtI went up by one when it went BC but it was buried in the list.

I Think I may have a Game Pass Sub I was planning to use for the day I beat every game in my vast, vast, vast, so very vast backlog (shut up, it can happen) that you can use if you want to extend your ReCore time.
