A battle royal game made for kids.... really?
Yup, best game of the year. What’s yours? Wait let me guess... Leisure Suit Larry: Wet Dreams Don’t Dry? Then you can fap to your adult game?

It’s okay if you don’t like Apex, I get it that it must be frustrating to get 20th place and let your team down every game.

It has nothing to do with enjoying a simpleton kid shooter, even though I dont have a clue in hell how you do. Its absurd to say that its a GOTY, even if a kiddie shooter is your favorite game, it does not mean it's the GOTY. It's like saying fortnite (which it probably was) was your GOTY last year. A game which you are paired up with 9 year olds, run around, die, and repeat. Theres not really anything there. Same with apex.

Dont get upset. Maybe if you have a kid one day you can play it with them and have the same amount of enjoyment lol

BTW : D4 Dark Dreams Dont Die was a very good game
 
My game of the year choice is easy, browsing GamePass for something to play. Yes I first started it last year but this year I have had even more fun playing this game with all the additions to the service.

Apex is objectively a great game. The shooting is smooth, the TTK being longer gives it a more strategic approach to other shooters where you have a decent option to run and heal. The legends have varying abilities to add to the depth of the Rock Paper Scissors feel of what beats what. The new map added more variation to the distance of firefights. If you have been playing shooters since Counter Strike then you would see the movement and fluidity in Apex brings new things to the genre. People that have played shooters for a long time can at least appreciate what Apex brought to the table even if they prefer a short TTK like in CoD.

I know it might feel “cool” to hate on popular things but one day when your grown up you will realize that it’s okay for great things to be great. You don’t have to pretend to hate popular things to fit in.

D4 was fine, I got bored of it pretty quick. The gameplay loop was a bit slow and I think I had other things in my backlog I wanted to play more so I only put about an hour into it, but if that was your game of the year (a game that came out in 2014), more power to you.

Just because kids play a game doesn't mean it is explicitly a kids game. Even if something is a "kids game" that doesn't exclude it from being good. Would you really argue with someone saying that Super Mario Odyssey was one of the best games of the year in 2017 just because it's all ages? Overwatch for having stylized graphics? Hell, every shooter is filled with kids and has been at least since console online became popular. Not to mention Apex is F2P, pretty much every free game has a lot of kids.

 
Ah, well, we must be in different phases of life. I take it you don't have kids? I feel like I've already gotten my money's worth for my 3 years of Disney+ lol :lol:
I too have kids and they have launched the Disney+ app 1 time and that's when I put it on their Roku TVs. They prefer the content on Netflix like Zig & Sharko, Inspector Gadget, Transformers etc. Even me and my wife only launch it Friday night for the Mandalorian. We watched Noel and Lady and the Tramp first weekend and that about does it for their original content. The service sucks unless you like rewatching old content which I don't as there is more than enough stuff I haven't seen. I'm cancelling after my free year is up (thanks Verizon) unless they step up their original content game.

On Disney+, we have been enjoying Mandalorian, Duck Tales, The World According to Jeff Goldblum, and Puppy Dog Pals. With it being half the price of Netflix I still see it as a decent value. We haven’t had cable for a long time so my kids are watching all the Disney cartoons they haven’t seen before.
 
Don’t think they have much to worry about with original content. Four of its movies are nominated for best picture between drama and comedy at the Golden Globes.

I honestly only watch original content on Netflix.

Meanwhile, I’m regretting prepaying for Disney+ for three years. Not enough original content I’m interested in.
Disney+ for me is roughly 75% stuff I've seen already so I knew ahead of time I'd only sub when I wanted to watch a show or a few movies they add we haven't seen yet. I think they just got people with the Mandalorian hype.

I will say this though: there are some harder to find old shorts/movies that are finally in one place without having to track them down on youtube or pirating. That's a nice bonus.

Might have to grab LEGO Avengers. Think that’s the cheapest it’s been.
I highly recommend almost all of the LEGO games, they are just mindlessly fun puzzle games with some combat and light platforming. And, the open worlds in the newer games are very fun to explore.

So, I have the Star Wars version of the Xbox One X, and for the first week of using it, it was whisper quiet, like a lot of the reviews say, but last night I was playing, and I noticed a slight grinding noise coming from inside of the console. Should I be concerned? Or, was that just the fan kicking into overdrive? It was the first time that I have heard the noise. There was no disc in the console, and I keep it on it's side (hotdog style) instead of flat down like a regular DVD player (hamburger style). Not sure if that has anything to do with it, but thought that I would mention that.
 
Disney+ isn’t great for me as I get enough nostalgia just browsing the older content than I do watching it, if I didn’t have all these other services releasing content so frequently I’m sure I’d watch it more.

My kids use it a lot though my 18 year old down to me 4 year old and my wife loves rewatching Pixar movies.

I do like Jeff Goldblums show and I got to rewatch Black Hole without having to plug one of my old hard drives up.

Definitely worth the 6.99 though but I bet that goes up around $10 once these marvel shows start releasing.

Ah that’s interesting. Although was thinking of deleting it for awhile since I actually haven’t used the Xbox Netflix app since I got a smart tv.
Do you have multiple xboxes where you live that multiple people may use? I have 3 xboxes in the house and can't really cast using youtube because when selecting what to cast to they all show up as "xbox one" even though they're all 3 different versions. It's annoying.

I can't believe I'm contemplating spending $55 at Costco for 12 months of Gold (need Christmas gift for nephew).  The drought on Gold deals is awful.

 
I thought Control was really good, not sure it would be my #1 game, but yeah I could easily see it in my top 5. Some minor performance issues and I had a few gripes with some optional end bosses where i don't think the encounters worked out well with the "camera system" they use. Presentation was great though and the collectibles were actually really well done as opposed to Fallen Order, another game I'd put in the solid 8 out of 10 for me much like Control. 

 
I do have kids but they’re older. Still like watching some Disney movies occasionally. And look forward to the Marvel shows next year.

Honestly not sure what I was expecting, lol. But worked out to like $3.33 or something a month with the D23 deal so it’s okay.
I hear you. I've got an 8 year old and one on the way. Disney+ is life, lol. But yeah, the $3.33 a month deal was too good to pass up. Between that and Hulu being a good bit cheaper than Netflix now, it does make me curious if they'll consider lowering prices.

 
I'm interested in pretty much all the Star Wars and Marvel shows they announced for Disney +, but I didn't realize they would be so stretched out. With the weekly release schedule on top of that I lost all interest in subscribing. Let's just say it's easy enough to find other sources to watch the stuff I am interested, especially if they only can manage to put out literally one at a time. After Mandalorian I think the next thing I'm interested in is Clone Wars in February, with most of the Marvel stuff being pretty far off.

 
A lot of times I feel old especially on the net but CAG always shouting out old school celebs upon their passing is the one place I feel less ancient

 
Shovel Knight’s last expansion is out today, including the multiplayer Showdown mode. No time today but I am going to play the hell out of it as soon as possible.
 
With the year closing out, what Xbox game announcements are you hoping for next year?

This year many of my wish list games arrived or were shown off for next year. With that said, my current Xbox dream list is:

Breath of Fire Collection

Eternal Darkness Remastered or Remake

Extreme G Collection

Dino Crisis Collection and a Remake

Fatal Frame Collection

Final Fantasy 1-6 Collection

Grandia HD Collection (It's only on Switch for now)

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered

Mortal Kombat Kollection (1-9)

Parasite Eve Collection

Panzer Dragoon Collection (Including Saga!)

Power Stone Collection

Resident Evil Original Trilogy Collection

Sega Rally Collection

Silent Hill 1-4 (Proper versions of 2 & 3) and a Silent Hill Remake

Skies of Arcadia Remastered, Skies 2

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Konami Collection

X-men Beat'em Up Collection

Hmmm... WigBuster... new member since Nov. 12th 2019... dammit, this is WeeDoo's new account, isn't it.

 
I seriously can't believe we get 2 previously unreleased in the west Saga
games but no Chrono trigger or Final fantasy 6. Please Square, I'm desperate, I'll even take those shitty Steam ports. I just want my sweet 16 bit goodness on Xbox one x.

Crazy that I was able to get the 3 months of Xbox ultimate for $1 with the bonus Microsoft rewards points yesterday and it came with 3 free months of discord, which came with 3 months of game pass. The 3 months converted to two months of game pass ultimate, so got 5 months of ultimate for $1 and I'm now good until September 2022. Microsoft is making this too good of a deal!

As much as I'd like this if it were made I see it being a series of collections like mega man.

I don't have many xbox related game wishes. Most of mine are older nintendo games being remastered for switch. I'm just looking forward to seeing all the games xbox is releasing with the new studios.

I'd love a "here's a bunch of og xbox and 360 games we made BC for the scarlett launch!"
I'd also like more clarity on scarlett BC. They say all X1 games will be BC but is it ultimately up to the publisher saying whether their game can be BC or not?

It was a goofy little game I played at PAX but I'd like to hear the release date for The Good Life. It was the only "launching on gamepass" game they were showing that hasn't been released yet.
 
I agree most people don’t see how passionate baseball fans are for the game but that’s because Madden, NBA2K and FIFA get so much attention and are played more. It doesn’t help that those aren’t exclusive to one system either. While I love MLB the Show, they don’t do enough to make me want to buy it every year anymore. I didn’t buy this past years game because there was no reason for me to. I play the my player mode so I go back and forth playing as a pitcher or an outfielder or third baseman. I’ve never cared about Diamond Dynasty which is their cash cow. I wasn’t planning on buying a PS5 but if they put out a game on Xbox, I’ll buy it as long as it’s not glitched or broken.
You could keep playing with that player, or team in Franchise mode, in the next game with the year-to-year transfers.

 
If I only played one game released this year, that makes it automatically my GOTY right? Guess it goes to Division 2, which I only played through the intro to get a timed item. Ok, I guess I played a couple other games for even less time. Which is why I didn't count them.

I did that with a few of my careers. I’ve started over with pitchers a couple of times because I want an almost completely different pitching setup. I may still get last years but I’ve been fine with how 18 looks and plays.
 
I Gotta admit, Microsoft is pretty ingenious with me sticking to their ecosystem on the XBox. Had a bit of time to game last night and was torn between Spider-man on my PS4 or finishing up the DLC in Far Cry 4 on the One, but remembered new weekly quests required achievements and daily 50 points for achievement earned so I figured I'd play Spider-man another day. The promise of free crap is ridiculously strong.

 
is assassins creed origins gold worth the extra $10 or is it just cosmetics?
Totally worth getting the gold edition. It has two story dlc packs, The Hidden Ones and Curse of the Pharaohs. There was is some packs of cosmetics and another extra mission. The two story dlc are well worth it.
 
SpongeBob Squarepants: Plankton's Robotic Revenge appears to be free for Xbox 360 users (Xbox One also?). I was just looking at the list of digital Xbox 360 games on the Xbox website, and it popped up as free. Not sure if that has something to do with Game Pass or Gold, but I have the game for my Wii U, and it's not that bad. It's a 3D platformer/shooter game.

I sense a disturbing, nay DISEMBOWELING, lack of DW/DQ games...

All I see on the game's product page is two free videos to download. The game seems to be delisted. Do you see something different?

 
I am currently on Day 9 with the caveat is that I've used a different game for each day. Day 9 I'm going to use that Telltale Poker Game. Day 10 should be easy to find an open world game. I'll either continue and do all the days like this, or perhaps aim for 12 different games to finish up Day 12.
Very cool! I'm impressed that you were able to scrounge up a single game with 8 grind achievements to unlock.
