Uh, Gears Tactics has been on PC Game Pass for like a year  :doge

Nevermind then lmao  :lol. I think I actually played it when it launched, cool game.

Sadly I dont use the service enough.. I kept it on for Forza Horizon 4 but honestly I should have just bought it.
I dont think it offers too much for PC users.

Finished Full Throttle, man that was a short game. BS trial and error action sequences at the end. Defo a weaker SCUMM title but the setting was cool. Easy achievements.

Grim Fandango next!

Jedi Fallen Order?  If so, I enjoyed it a lot.  It kind of reminded me of a cross between the Tomb Raider reboot with a Souls type game.

Halo 4

Required disc space 161 GB


WTF, guessing you have to install every MCC collection game or something? I don't even have that space right now with Watchdogs Legion and Forza 7 installed.

Xbox One

Well deleted Forza 7 and downloading it now. Will give the campaign like 30 mins and see how it looks/plays on PC. Going back to Reach's visuals was...yeah, pretty dated. Hopefully Halo 4 being one generation ahead looks a little nicer.

Nm, Halo 4 was a X360 game. I wonder why I never got it/played it. I was into Halo and got them all through Reach. Thought I didn't get 4/5 because they were on Xbox One.

120FPS Halo is insane, it's like butter

It still doesn't make Halo 4 good though

Grim Fandango is so good. I missed this one back in 98 due to only owning a ps1 (I had played the other T Schafer games on an earlier 486 w/ CD ROM I had access to eg. Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle)

Manny's voice acting is so endearing and likable and the whole milieu of the game makes so much more sense to me as an adult with knowledge of film noir, smoking, and Día de Muertos.

3 month game pass ultimate for $20. If you remember to disable auto renew before activating then you’ll get an extra month so it’s $60 for a year.

Won't a year of gold still convert to a year of Ultimate if you let your sub run out? You can get a year of Ultimate for $60 this way also.

I'm starting to think that the 343i studio was built on a native american burial site or something. I'd love to watch the behind the scenes of this wreck

It’s built on a Bungie burial site and only ghosts of Bungie work on the games.

Halo under Bungie was space war opera that revolved around around conflict that spanned a short amount of time in the Halo universe. Halo at its best revolves around large scale war.

343 tries to tell a story incorporating lore into everything, and trying to inject storytelling into Halo when it doesn't need it. Halo 4 didn't invoke large scale conflict. Halo 5 didn't. Halo Infinite most likely won't.

Halo 4 should've been Earth getting destroyed, pockets of humanity escaping, Master Chief and the remaining Spartans end up being the remaining line of defense. A Halo ring ends up being habitable, Humanity fights to seize it. There's vaults on the ring to ensure survival if you use the ring. Space drama, betrayal, cliffhangers, yada yada.

Large scale and interesting conflict. Instead we got "how does Master Chief feel about this?????"

Halo and Gears will be good and probably Crackdown 3, Black, Doom Eternal, and Wolfenstein: Young Blood but I haven't played those last four. I would have recommended BF1/5 from the EA library but Dice decided to go wild with stupid stealth missions that don't work well. The other half of the campaigns are pretty fun in a mindless big war action way.

Quantum Break is a good story driven 3rd person shooter with a striaghtforward, self-contained campaign. No multiplayer, no GaaS, no DLC, no bullshit

All those are real good except for Young Blood. That game is hog shit and I was disgusted by how terrible it was. Fuck that game. This was clearly not the A-team working on it.

Apparently 343 are adding a BR to Halo, maybe get the game to a functional and well polished state before you try doing other things? Can see this game not coming until 2022 at this rate.

I learned today that if your XBL account is linked with someone else's, you also share GamePass. My sub ran out last month, but my nephew recently re-upped his and I'm still able to download and play GamePass games. This might be old news, but I had no idea.

Honestly kind of boring lineup after the big recent hits like Doom and DQXI.

I guess I'll try Medan.
Wish Code Vein was PC. I guess the issue with a lot of these is there's no windows store version, only Steam and Bamco isn't going to put the time in to port it between stores.

Literally in the first 3 minutes, she starts awkwardly describing everything, like a mad woman.
"Oh no, i've had that bad dream again, that i've been having ever since my husband died in the mysterious train wreck after he started his research on the lost city of Atlantis which was also his childhood dream as revealed to me by that old lady at the fair when i was a child myself, right after my dad left me and my mother!"

I can understand being overly-descriptive when you examine things around the room, it's kind of like PS1 survival horrors, classic p&c adventures or even RPG were, but you could try to be a tad elegant about it.

Lovecraft was prob innovative? Who cares. Build your own personailty and interests please. I wanna see dinosaurs playing basketball or something
