Checking out the different review drops for Gears 5 today and saw a few times there is a 2-3 minute "previously on Gears of War" video that will catch you up on the story if your not inclined to finish 4 and want to jump in. On the IGN Xbox Unlocked podcast the girl even said there is more in depth ones that will tell you what's going on game by game. 

 
That sucks. I swore I thought they said anything you purchased was tied to your Bungie profile and would carry over. Oh well.
Their messaging and policies are a bit wonky, but you’re not totally wrong. What they’ve said is that you can keep your upcoming season pass or individual season purchases across platforms, but unfortunately that doesn’t include base Shadowkeep (afaik). What that’ll mean as far as exactly what modes you can and cannot play is still TBD I guess, but at least it’s something. But this way if Shadowkeep itself goes on sale on a second/third platform that you want to play on with your cross save character, at least you don’t have to worry about buying the entire SP bundle each time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, PSA: Dead Cells is available on GP now. Not sure what else was due out today (if anything) but I’ve been playing it, and definitely agree with the praise so far. I’ve made it through 2 levels and haven’t died, so I’m not sure how the rogue-like elements fit in just yet (though I’ve unlocked a few “permanent” upgrades already, which is nice), but I’m definitely enjoying the platforming and combat so far. Thanks again to GGP and others for the recommendations.
 
Destiny 2 is legit too confusing to purchase. Everytime I want to buy it, it pushes me away with all the stupid content names and options. God their marketing team is retarded.
Yup I have no idea what I would need to buy to get current. Don't care enough to figure it out either. I am going to resist the urge to get D3. I loved the first Destiny until I got burnt out and just can't get into it for more then a few weeks.

 
Fairly well convinced Kingdom Come glitched two achievements on me through like 2.5 hours of play, so eff that quest. Harrumph.
Is one of the achievements you are referring to the "Blacksmith's Son" achievement? If so, the tips I've seen on-line are off. The achievement didn't pop for me until I left the village.

 
and the confusion begins anew...
I will fire up the free to play on XBox pop what achievements I can from bringing over my PS4 characters. Not spending a nickel on this mess. Anytime I toy with the idea of playing it again I remember I can't figure out how much money they want to get me current. Then I Remember I am likely to play through the story DLC and maybe a week of the online before being bored again.

 
Let's try another way!

Season 1 - Vanilla - Free with New Light
Season 2 - Curse of Osiris - Free with New Light
Season 3 - Warmind - Free with New Light
Season 4 - Forsaken - PURCHASE
Season 5 - Season of the Forge (Annual Pass Season 1) - Free with Forsaken
Season 6 - Season of the Drifter (Annual Pass Season 2) - Free with Forsaken
Season 7 - Season of Opulence (Annual Pass Season 3 - current season) - Free with Forsaken

And now for the future:

Season 8 - Season of Undying - included in Shadowkeep
Season 9 - Season of ??? - Separate purchase of $10, or included in Shadowkeep Deluxe
Season 10 - Season of ??? - Separate purchase of $10, or included in Shadowkeep Deluxe
Season 11 - Season of ??? - Separate purchase of $10, or included in Shadowkeep Deluxe

I think their philosophy about Seasons has changed over the years...
People wonder why ppl like Fortnite and Apex...

Mom! Hey mom! I want Destiny 2 for Christmas but make sure it’s got the Shadowkeep season 2, not the Undertoe Season 1 because my friends are about to start Season 3 of Mists of Shadow so make sure you get me the right version.

So no EA Access trial for the new PvZ game?
I think because your technically buying early access.

So many damn games in that Nintendo direct. I thought e3 was pretty tame and my wallet was safe but I'm not so sure anymore. I guess all these companies are rushing to get their games out before the ps5 and x2 hit next year.

If you own a Wii u I feel sorry for you with all these ports. Looking at my Wii U collection I only have Pikmin 3 Wonderful 101 and Xenoblade Chronicles X out of games not ported yet and I bet they will get ports eventually.
 
Playing Gears 4 and think it’s the first time I’ve ever heard the fan on my Xbox One X. And I’ve played the game before so not sure why it’s running now. Still not even close to as loud as my PS4 but was surprised to actually hear it.
 
When you're in high school, you can't afford all the awesome games you have time to play. Then you grow up, buy them finally, and have time for 1 out of 10 of them.

Bring on the 4-6 hour completions!
That's it exactly. I now have a job where I can buy any game I want at a moment's notice... And they just sit there getting dusty. This site and its mega deals just seem to rub salt into that wound.
 
Is one of the achievements you are referring to the "Blacksmith's Son" achievement? If so, the tips I've seen on-line are off. The achievement didn't pop for me until I left the village.
I believe so. I got all the way to where you become a squire, but nothing. Thinking I should've had one at least at that point. Along with others in the thread, I've become a less patient gamer as I get older. My time is worth more than the 300 points I'll get from this quest.
 
That sucks. I swore I thought they said anything you purchased was tied to your Bungie profile and would carry over. Oh well.
You might be refering to what Bungie said about your entitlements on the current PC platform (Battle.net) transferring for free to the new PC platform (Steam) once Shadowkeep goes live.
 
I believe so. I got all the way to where you become a squire, but nothing. Thinking I should've had one at least at that point. Along with others in the thread, I've become a less patient gamer as I get older. My time is worth more than the 300 points I'll get from this quest.
It does sound like it should have popped for you.

I've also become less patient but I think it's different with the quests. We play the quests for the points and finding out we like it is just a bonus. We hope we can pop an achievement pretty quickly so we can get back to the actual game we were playing and for the most part it has happened that way for me. This is the first time I've had to put in a few hours to pop an achievement in both Kingdom Come and Shadow of War.

 
I never knew Salt and Sanctuary got an Xbox release! Discovered it when I went to install Dead Cells. I'm certainly not full price excited, but I'd double dip at $10.

I never knew this either, so thanks for posting! Looks like it released Feb 2019. I will wait for a sale as well, but happy to see this.

Now Forager needs to make the jump to Xbox...
 
It's kinda amazing how much more I care about a AAA release when I get it day one'ish instead of waiting for it to be cheap. All hail our lord Ultimate Game Pass!

 
I wish I didn't have to play through the entire series because the hype makes me want to jump right into 5.  But I'm playing through 1 Ultimate and it's really starting to get good, just got through the area with the bats that get you in the dark and the first vehicle section and the game is starting to grow on me.

you will get worn out by the 2nd game if you keep on playing the series game after game. Take breaks and enjoy the game at your own pace. we will wait you for senpai

You may feel compelled to play them in order, but it's not exactly Game of Thrones. Gears 4 was designed to be accessible in terms of story if you hadn't played previous games, and I think Gears 5 will be fine too to just jump in. You may have more fun revisiting the older titles like they're prequels after digging into the new one.

 
Let's try another way!

Season 1 - Vanilla - Free with New Light
Season 2 - Curse of Osiris - Free with New Light
Season 3 - Warmind - Free with New Light
Season 4 - Forsaken - PURCHASE
Season 5 - Season of the Forge (Annual Pass Season 1) - Free with Forsaken
Season 6 - Season of the Drifter (Annual Pass Season 2) - Free with Forsaken
Season 7 - Season of Opulence (Annual Pass Season 3 - current season) - Free with Forsaken

And now for the future:

Season 8 - Season of Undying - included in Shadowkeep
Season 9 - Season of ??? - Separate purchase of $10, or included in Shadowkeep Deluxe
Season 10 - Season of ??? - Separate purchase of $10, or included in Shadowkeep Deluxe

Season 11 - Season of ??? - Separate purchase of $10, or included in Shadowkeep Deluxe

I think their philosophy about Seasons has changed over the years...
The colors help. Whats this about? :p

i believe its to order and expansions, basically bungie looking for some extra cast while they try to figure out what to do, the game looked good but besides and online/mmo pushed game with sony exclusives and sony prefs, stopped bothering with anything bungie after quitting halo/xbox in favor of sony, well good luck to them in the future

 
If anyone wants a  code for

10 days free of game pass, just pm me, will give to first person

this does not stack with ultimate, so if you have ultimate please do not ask for it, let someone who doesn't have game pass have it 

 
In case anyone is still confused after chnandler's very good post, the very bottom line on Destiny 2 is that if you don't have Forsaken, then purchasing this $25 pack will give you absolutely everything released as of 9/17.

Destiny 2 Forsaken Complete Collection

The new Shadowkeep expansion comes out on 10/1 and costs $35 and includes the extra content pass for the new season.

Destiny 2 Shadowkeep

If you have those two items you have everything available for the near future.  If you want to get gung-ho and prebuy 3 more content passes for future seasons, then you can get the Shadowkeep Deluxe version instead for $60 ($5 saving over buying individual passes).

If you've never played Destiny 2 and you are still on the fence, then just wait for the free version out on 10/1 and you'll be able to try out a big chunk of the game.

I figured out why you want to rank down on Gears Pop. If your Win Streak box is available, if you lose a bunch to rank down then you can easily win 5 in a row and you get a bunch of nice stuff in the win streak box.
 
Some how I am just now learning this but after visiting the Destiny 2 DLC pages I noticed that Outer Worlds is going to be on game pass on release and suddenly I am very excited for this game!  I guess I assumed it wouldn't be treated like a first party game since its publishing deal was done before Obsidians purchase by Microsoft.

Are there any achievements after bronze? If not I might consider taking a rank dive.

I'm watching the gears Mixer with my kid's accounts too, so I might have a skin code or two to give away.

Yes, an achievement for Gold rank, I dropped me down just below 1400 and then with 5 wins I was back above 1550ish

I still wish there was some way to matchmake outside of your crew in gears pop. There's plenty of times when I'm on and no one in the crew is. At least 75% of the horde matches I've done are when someone has joined me, I'd like to be able to join other people's matches. I can't tell if the level horde item you get is random or not. I had a level 5 one I did with donken the other day and we got the boss to like 30% health before he beat us and we're both around 1600 rank.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of the people throwing could potentially be achievement hunters getting the "play 1000 matches" achievement.
 
No way past bronze unless you drop some $$ BTW. I've been stuck in ~1650 and I spent about $20 so far.

I still haven’t found a legendary, that seems to be what smokes me. That twirling grunt with the staff or the guy that rolls from side to side.

I wonder if we had that guy with the damage boost aura if we could have won that. I like that guy but I never know what to drop to fit him in my lineup.
