Leaving soon:

 

Double Dragon Neon (warning: this has a 1 point achievement for launching it)
Clustertruck
MLB The Show 22
Power Rangers Battle for the Grid
Kraken Academy
A Memoir Blue
Chinatown Detective Agency

 

Comparing that list to what I've gleaned from the marketplace, everything there was in my post from Monday, except Kraken Academy.  However, that one is in my post from March 3 with an April 1 end date, it just now has an end date of midnight UTC tomorrow, indicating it may go on sale.

 

The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk, Totally Reliable Delivery Service and Weird West also have an end date of the first.  Still time for the list to be updated.

A Memoir Blue was good. I don’t think I’m gonna try to finish any of the others.

Picked up WWE 2K23 from the trading thread, redeeming the code did not give me the punchcard for spending. It definitely plays better than any of the previous ones. Reversals have more options, I'm still learning but almost everything has an option. Keeps crashing to home screen while in the creations menus.

 

Power Rangers Battle for the Grid is a fighting game like Marvel. So not quick.

Is there a simplified reverse option? Last year I think had three different reverse buttons that just killed any fun I could have playing the game.

How long do these games take to complete:
Power rangers, kraken academy and Chinatown detective agency

A Memoir Blue is a quick completion. About 1 hour. Check it out if you like artsy games.

 

I enjoyed Kraken Academy. Should take about 6 hours. A fun little indie narrative adventure game.

I don't quite understand, I only casually played last year and it was just Y when it flashes. There is a breaker-esque element where you can press an attack button to counter. Sometimes you can out time with X or B so maybe that's what you mean? I'm still trying to understand it but I'm just hitting the button like it's a fighting game and it works a fair amount.

Yea, that is what it was. To counter grapple I think was Y, but then there was one button to counter a normal attack and another button to counter a combo attack. Something like that. It has been a while since I stopped playing so memory is not super clear other than I know it was a game killer for me.

On a more uplifting personal note...I just got married about 2 hours ago. We eloped after 6 years together. Parents do not even know yet.


Congratulations!!!

126 items set for Monday.  Just 22 at present for the following Monday.  Nearly 400 for the afternoon of April 6.  Guessing that's the Spring Sale.  Oddly, nothing currently there for the Monday before that (Apr 3).

No combos, just like for like. Like Killer Instinct match the type. I'm getting more extra than missing, although I'm still missing plenty of regular reversals just due to being tired.

My main complaint is when you have to hit a signature and it takes forever to get the meter up.

Had an early win in a tower where the ref doesn't see a clear hand on the rope which was a great reminder that it's not a sure thing.

Preorder Diablo IV at Amazon to get a beta code. Still haven’t gotten it. Will end up cancelling anyway as I’d rather do digital. And knowing my luck, MS will finalize the ATB deal at the last minute and it’ll be on GamePass. Not likely but who knows…

Late reminder, but the $25 Xbox gift cards are still 15% off at Dollar General in-store through the end of today.  I picked up two more this morning.

Supposed leak of Shin Megami Tensai 3, 4, and 5 coming to Xbox. Originally posted on 4chan, they look real enough, but could easily be fakes.

SMT4 is the one that makes it seem real. The other games have current console versions already. 4 is a port from 3DS so it has a newly added mimi-map in the shit.

I Believe it only because I've bought SMTIII three times (PS2, Switch and PS4) so it would make sense that they would make me eventually get it again on XBox. Also that looks like like a new'ish version of SMT4 just because they're featuring both protagonist from the original game and Apocalypse (not to mention the subtitle of FINAL).

 

And glad that Atlus is filling the void of Square's PlayStation exclusivity for XBox.

It seems today's bing daily quiz is broken. Answer the 1st question, then the quiz doesn't appear for the 2nd.

 

Edit- It was broken with Firefox. Used the Bing app on Xbox and I completed it. 1405 day streak saved.

I know this is the wrong thread, but I'm trying to buy some games off the Nintendo 3DS eshop before it closes, I know the only way to add funds is if you link an account, but I can't seem to get it to connect on the 3DS, anyone familiar with this and mind helping me out a little, I can go into a little more detail with what I've done so far but I hit a wall.   Please send me a message if you can help, would be much appreciated.

Guess I’m going to have to buy 3, 4, and 5 again. 5 is one of my favorite games from the past few years. Need to finish 3 and 4.

I finished Wo Long and all it's achievements.  It wasn't very hard after the first boss, especially in co-op.  Having a friend around helps a ton as you can revive each other.  AI companions are not available in all missions.  Most side missions at the end with bosses invovled.

Is a big sale impending? I got a notification on my Xbox earlier saying I had about 50 things on my wishlist on sale but when I checked it was the same from Tuesday.

Also, just finished Beacon Pines. What a great game.

Pretty sure Goldeneye is only available via Rare Replay/Switch Expansion Pass on purpose. Not being able to purchase it directly lets them have a way to completely remove it from both systems when the license expires.

Technically you do still purchase it on Xbox since it's included with Rare Replay. There is just no way to own it on Switch.

Finally decided to preorder Diablo IV digitally and been playing the beta. Other than losing connection to the server once, it really is fantastic. Seems like it’s going to have a more cohesive story than Diablo III. Graphics look great and combat is a blast as usual.

Sucks that progress doesn’t carry over to the full game though.

Does the beta have local multiplayer? Been debating it, but I know my wife will want to play too

Does Dragon Age DLC ever go on sale?  Will they announce a Dragon Age Legendary Edition after I buy all of it?
