Was quite a few indies on this sale that haven't been on sale in over a year...
I'd say something clever like "seen one indie game, seen 'em all," but since that's stupid, I'd just say that I already have too many in my backlog, so I'll just wait until they're on sale again next year.

 
Anyone pre ordering RE 2? For me it's either that or Anthem or fuck it and get both :).
Maybe not preordering it, but getting it on release. Have a GameStop gift card and with them being in financial flux at the moment, would rather use it sooner than later prepping for the worst case scenario.

That said, not preordering it from GameStop. Had a pre-order there years ago that still pisses me off. My copy was the only copy they got in, and in typical GS fashion, they guy it open and put it on the shelf. Game in question was Akai Katana.

Resident Evil 2 is in my top three games of all time so I pre-ordered day one. I hate it but Capcom got me to upgrade to the $70 version for the Elza Walker costume and classic music option. The fact that they just confirmed Hunk and Tofu modes are in and not DLC bullshit sealed the deal for me that this team absolutely is respecting the source material.

Anthem is a hard pass from me. Bioware/EA has done a terrible job making the game look appealing to me. So far it looks a bandwagon Destiny-style game EA demanded rather than the RPGs the studio is known for. About the same as when Visceral was put on projects they didn't want like Dante's Inferno and Battlefield Hardline. As is, I know Bioware for making games that are good because of the character interactions and decisions made, propped up with some alright at best gameplay. When you nerf the aspects the studio is known for into the ground, I'm basically going to look at the game like starting from square one. Most of the things that make looter shooters like Destiny, Warframe, or Borderlands work are things that Bioware has so far not been good at.

The Alpha did little to sway me towards it though I did enjoy some aspects but not enough to make me lean towards grabbing it over say The Division 2. Also the load times were atrocious but I'm willing to think a lot of that was alpha issues, well see what it is like in the Beta.

Unrelated, I decided to join the noobs over the weekend and messed around with Halo 5 pvp and can finally gift that gold pack that has been sitting in my inventory for about two years. So if anyone wants it, first to quote this post gets it. I'll DM you asking for your tag when I'm back around next (pretty sure I can only send it to friends or recent players) and I'll send it along when I get a chance.

 
I just set mine back up to see if it would work. I downloaded the 3 packs i bought and played each one of the 9 games on my 360. I then unhooked it and fired up my XONE. Still no change. Still unable to import or download from the storage screen. Tried both FX2 and 3. FX2 i see all the games but they are greyed out with no pricing info and say they are unable to be purchased. On FX3 there's still prices attached to the games.

Shit.
You need to send an email to their support with you order number, they will send you codes for the packs that you have bought. It took them a week to respond to my email.

Yeah, I'll give the beta a shot if possible. I'm just extremely cynical about how anything published by EA is going to be at this point. I would get it over Division, but I've never liked the realistic setting of the Tom Clancy games. Really, if Bungie can get their heads out of their asses with Destiny now that Activision is gone, I'll probably not bother with any other the other AAA attempts at the genre. Warframe puts all of them to shame anyways.

Well, my guy sucks ass 😂

But thanks for the chance!
 
I've got standard Anthem pre-ordered but will probably wait on RE2 until it's first big sale...
Yeah, just like you, I've pre-purchased Resident Evil 2 and am incredibly excited to play it on launch weekend - and I, too, will wait for a big sale before even considering touching the dumpster fire that is my beloved Bioware's Anth....WAIT, WHAT DID YOU SAY!!!??!??!?

I kid, I kid. You do you, man.

Celeste uninstalled after playing 10 minutes. If I didn’t have any good games to play I guess I could play this or go take a bath in fire ants.
People who think this was in the conversation for GOTY do not share my taste in games.
 
Anthem is a hard pass from me. Bioware/EA has done a terrible job making the game look appealing to me. So far it looks a bandwagon Destiny-style game EA demanded rather than the RPGs the studio is known for. About the same as when Visceral was put on projects they didn't want like Dante's Inferno and Battlefield Hardline. As is, I know Bioware for making games that are good because of the character interactions and decisions made, propped up with some alright at best gameplay. When you nerf the aspects the studio is known for into the ground, I'm basically going to look at the game like starting from square one. Most of the things that make looter shooters like Destiny, Warframe, or Borderlands work are things that Bioware has so far not been good at.
It’s a hard pass for me as well. I buy Bioware games for the immersive worlds, interactions, choices and great stories. Anthem looks like a complete Destiny ripoff and I had no interest in that either. I usually ignore online only games now that I escaped the world of MMOs. I did play some of the Division this month and was surprised it was better than I thought but I liked Wildlands much better. I agree it seems EA probably forced their hand into making this game. While I don’t hope Anthem doesn’t bomb, I want Bioware back making rpgs.

Wow I have no idea who any of those guys are. I thought I casually kept up with tennis a little but this is clearly a wake up call that I really must not give a fuck.
 
I was wondering if Blops 4 was going to have a FTP weekend, and just saw over in the PS thread that it was announced on the COD twitter account that the Battle Royale mode is free for all systems starting Thursday. So that’s one (not very mysterious) mystery solved.
 
I love all the bandwagon haters. You all shit talking a game that we've barely seen. I'm not going to preorder it because I'm a CAG and paying full price is for chumps. That said, dragging a game before it's even out makes it that much harder for companies to even try pushing out new IPs. Instead we'll keep getting BLops29 and generic RPG 33.

The Alpha did little to sway me towards it though I did enjoy some aspects but not enough to make me lean towards grabbing it over say The Division 2. Also the load times were atrocious but I'm willing to think a lot of that was alpha issues, well see what it is like in the Beta.

Unrelated, I decided to join the noobs over the weekend and messed around with Halo 5 pvp and can finally gift that gold pack that has been sitting in my inventory for about two years. So if anyone wants it, first to quote this post gets it. I'll DM you asking for your tag when I'm back around next (pretty sure I can only send it to friends or recent players) and I'll send it along when I get a chance.
The Alpha did seem very non Destiny to me at least. They haven't done a great job of at least getting that out there since everyone seems to still run around and say it's Destiny.

 
Anthem seems nothing like Destiny to me, aside from shooting stuff and getting loot.  If anything, it resembles The Division a lot more (progression, building your loadouts, what we know so far about endgame), minus the latter's cover system and minus PvP.

Also, you all are crazy for not wanting to fly around like Iron Man.  That first trailer gripped me like a vice and has never let go.

I pre-ordered the game to get access to the demo later in the month. I don't think it will wrest me from Destiny 2's control (not trying to draw a comparison here), but I'll give it a chance. If I like it I doubt I'll buy it day one, but we'll see.

I had 4 cars waiting for me. One of the rival events had 2 cars and the other had rewards for each 20% placement you had in the rankings. I had checked last night and my placement was 28.8%, so I should've gotten more than 2 cars from that. Unless a lot of people got in last minute runs to push me down around 10k spots in the rankings.

Didn't get the credits from that rivals event, however. Between the new free car, new car pass pack and the rival cars, I did pop the 500 cars in garage achievement.

Also started up FH4 to get the in-game info for the stuff in the today's update. Had the reoccurring muted audio bug. Tried restarting the game, tried a hard reset. Now I'm letting the XB1 sit for a while with the power unplugged to see if that gets it working.

Also had games shift from my installed list to ready to install, something I've seen others mention. Had that happen over the weekend, but rebooting the console fixed it. This time it persisted through the hard resets.

 
Even maybe more than Bioware, EA itself needs something good PR wise. I see that one Star Wars game debacle has officially come to an end. Seems like it's been doomed from the start, it does say that it was still light years out, and they have another Star Wars project besides the Respawn game supposedly coming out sooner.  I wish they'd just give us Xwing Vs Tiefighter with the full online experience that all machines are capable of now, but I doubt that's every going to happen.

Good. It's not my damn job to make a game look appealing. Anthem looks and sounds like another time sink that doesn't respect my time.

Maybe I'm wrong. I doubt it.

And really, who cares about new IP when it's modeled every off existing games?

Others on the Forza forums are also reporting missing cars and cash as well.

 
Anthem is chasing the Games As A Service business model that I do not respect.  It took the top-tier Bioware talent so Mass Effect was left with left-overs in charge of the doomed project Andromeda.  It is partially the reason we are still likely two years out from Dragon Age 4.

The GAAS craze cannot end soon enough; its taking time away from too many great RPG dev teams to achieve poor results.  We were due for a great single-player Bethesda RPG in 2018, but instead we got the multiplayer-focused Fallout 76 - one of the year's biggest blunders.

I just want proper, highly-regarded Bioware single-player focused RPG games again released on a timely basis.  I'm 'hating' on Anthem because it is simply getting in the way of series I love (Mass Effect, Dragon Age).

I wasn’t surprised by this at all. I think EA needs to really step back and evaluate what they’ve done overall with Star Wars. Very little has worked for them. Maybe that’s why this game was pulled. There is an extensive amount of Star Wars games that were commercial hits and are still loved to this day. It would do them a lot of good to consider what made them great and use that towards what they do next.
Good god what I wouldn’t give for a new X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter but it’d have to be on PC using a joystick and keyboard.

I can connect to the rewards site, but not the forums. Some other MS sites are also having trouble. Gears forums, messages can't load on XBL profile page, either Major Nelson's site got a bit of a redesign or it's not able to retrieve some formatting info.

Hmm, did you unlock any achievements in that time? Always figured I’d give this a go but would rather avoid it on my tag if I’m going to hate it.

so with all the praise from gamers and critics, you'll avoid the game because one guy here says he didn't like it after 10 minutes?

 
Am I dumb cause I cannot see these prices on the website. Is there a sale happening later or the website hasnt updated yet?

Thanks!

Oh, nevermind. I couldnt see the weekly ad on my phone so I didnt see it. See it in the ad. Thanks for the tip!

FYI: Far Cry 5 Vanilla is $14.99 at GS starting today.

AC: Odyssey is $24.99. I might bite at that price.

Disk of course.

It's in their ad for this week (their ad is from Wednesday through Tuesday). I don't know when it goes live but it should happen today.
 
All these great games on Gamepass, yet after work all I feel like doing is playing a few rounds of Fortnite and going to bed. I've been downloading a lot of the games...so that's something I guess.
 
I thought Celeste was good. But, was I willing to stress myself over a free indy, pixelated, hards-as-nails platformer? Hell no.

Turned on ALL the cheats (infinite stamina and invincibility) and just breezed through it. Still missing the B-sides on chapters 5, 6 and 7 (well and 8 but it seems you can't play it until you've beaten the previous ones and collect all the crystal hearts).

Does that automatically turns me into a "filthy casual" for not playing it "the right way"? Don't know, don't care.

By the way, it seems the rumors of Ronda Rousey playing a younger version of Sonya Blade in MK11 might be true after all (she apparently did mokap, facial likeness and maybe even voice). She posted her invitation for tomorrow's reveal event on IG. We'll find out tomorrow I guess.
