Lol this game must be the reason why my gamerscore now always ends in 1 or 6
Same here. Just reached a new personal milestone.
15.001 Gamerscore. -.-
Yup, really annoying. Only way to fix it is to keep playing until you get 1 of 2 odd number achievements: one for not slapping any ghosts on the haunted levels and one for finding the hidden console on EVERY level.
Here's what's worse: The ghost one is obviously easier, there's only 3 haunted levels and they're about halfway through the game, doesn't take terribly long to unlock them. Only the ghost achievement was glitched on xbox for MONTHS. I beat the game before noticing the odd number gamerscore thing, so I wasn't going to go back and find every console again. So I had the bright idea to play it again on PC, where the achievement isn't glitched... only to realize (I'd never played the same game on both before) that ALL the achievements can be earned on both, so I immediately got the mandatory one point achievement again for finishing the tutorial on PC.
I gave up at that point. They finally fixed the Xbox ghost achievement a while ago. I still have to go back and get the ghost one on PC too but I just can't summon the will to boot up that game again.
Cyber Shadow and Carrion give odd numbers too, you can use them to fix that, lol.
Outer Wilds is a very interesting game. Really good sense of exploration and discovery and the core gimmick is quite well done.
Mass Effect 3 is more enjoyable than I thought it would be. Played it years ago. I think I will try andromeda again after. I got somewhat far before. I remember enjoying the combat and stuff.
Just completed Dishonored for the first time. What an amazing game and the 60fps/quick load times make it a blast to play. It was a pretty fast play through as well, which was welcome. Going to jump into the story DLCs and hope a FPS boost is on its way for the second game as well.
Yep! They are launched from the main menu but are still a part of the overall package.
Really enjoying Empire of Sin. Unfortunately the controls are bit complicated and playing the game on xbox makes me want to chdck it out on PC with KB+M.
The Game Pass for PC app is so cursed. Empire of Sin would just not open. I spammed the "play" button continuously today and then the Paradox Launcher came up. It's apparently what'll need to do every time to boot up the game.
I've given up on the pc app. I even completely formatted my pc and reinstalled windows. Didn't take long before troubles came back.
It really is quite good. I thought the vertical level design was pretty amazing, to be honest.
Sucks that the studio has been shut down :/
I just had a crazy thought-
It would be really good if Microsoft switched to using the Bethesda launcher for all Gamepass games.
It works so much better than the MS Store and they can fully keep you in the infrastructure because they own that store now.
It's also an easy out for them to finally get away from UWP which they have been promising for years.

is it just me or is Squadrons fucking great? Holy shit, I didn't play for long but it feels wonderful to play
This just makes me so sad. I really want to sub the Game Pass for PC but it's just so pathetic given all the technical issues. I'm tempted to just get a Series X at this point.
Hasn't clicked for me yet, but the last flight action game I played was Rogue Squadron II. I'm going to try some fleet battles this week
It definitely looks and sounds wonderful. Gameplay-wise it feels like I'm just chasing HUD elements across empty space, or going for multiple runs against larger targets until it blows up.
Yeah, it's no Ace Combat 7 for sure. Though pretty ok. I'm hoping it gets more diverse, having currently finished the first Empire mission.
I agree, Ace Combat 7 is way better.
I'm still at chapter 2 or 3, overall is fun, but I had the same thought as you
Yep. Double Dragon Neon does it too. Took me ages to find 2g or 4g achievements after starting that for one of the Game Pass quests. This time, I read there was a bugged achievement in Europa Universalis IV on PC (start a game on Ironman, get 4g) - sure enough, it worked. Gamerscore restored!
The PC version is on Game Pass too!
Edit: I'm wrong sorry. I could have sworn it was PC and Xbox.
It's a shame Achievements are blocked out on Skyrim with mods, although I understand why.
I played through the original on PC and had the Open Cities(?) mod which meant no loading screens between city gates, doors etc. It's so jarring playing this on the SX and there's a load screen between leaving Whiterun and going to the world map as well as all other normal buildings.

It's really nice. It's not my type of game to be honest, but a can appreciate they trying to tell a story from almost entire inside a cockpit.
Also 120fps . Nice
Has the game been improved since launch? The 1920/1930s setting always hooked me ever since that presentation at an Xbox showcase two years ago or so. But the reviews really left me unsure what to think of this game, it appaeared broken then.
Finished A Plague Tale: Innocence yesterday. Loved the atmosphere of the game, the settings and, while not the best in class, also the stealth gameplay.
I really hope Asobo's next game is another adventure like this one.

Literally went in blind so I was unaware of any issues. Game seems to run fine.
The setting really hooked me too. I chose to be the Irish mob and my main guy has a real attitude. Have already ran a few missions and taken over a few nearby businesses, i'm probably around 2 hours in. The game itself is really good, I just find the controls to be complicated and its quite apparent that the menus and management tools provided are designed for keyboard and mouse.
Shame its not also on PC gamepass as that's where I would most likely get the most out of it.
Has this just been updated? I put a lot of hours in a few weeks ago and it was running at 30fps. Playing on Series S.
It got updated last week but as far as I'm aware it's only 60fps on Series X.
Just checked and there it is. Thanks!
Weirdly enough, it wouldn't show on the 'recently added' or any other list and i had to search for it. Will download later
On a related note, anyone with a pc should download the Command and Conquer remastered collection. One of the best remasters I've ever had the pleasure of playing and you don't need a super powerful PC to experience it in all its glory.
Oh! I'd love that. I bought two of thos egames before, but I haven't played any of them for the last 4-5 years I think.
Quoted post had two other folks who've seen the light as well :-). IMHO Journey to the Savage plant was a bit of an underappreciated gem. Really colourful, lots of verticality and like BOTW it rewards curiousity....nearly everywhere you think "I wonder if..." there is a treat waiting if you can get there. And almost always more useful than korok seeds.
If at all possible i'd recommend everyone tries it before it leaves and then decide if you want to keep going and try and finish it before it goes. The exploration is fun, but optional, so you can mainline through the game relatively quickly if you want to.
I find undertale kind of a little bit fun, but certainly not worthy of the immense hype and praise it gets.
I implore people who like metroidvania style puzzle games to check out Supraland. It's made by what looks to be mostly 1 person, but it's an absolutely huge and polished feeling game with some inventive puzzle mechanics. Explorers will probably find it funny how often they feel they can get out of bounds of the level only for it to be part of the world and have something like a chest or npc waiting for you.
I had a ton of fun with it.

I've played for two hours so far. To be honest I've never really looked into this game much - I thought it was a retro style game which was brutal in terms of difficulty. In actual fact, it seems more like a comedy game to me. I think it's fairly short so will probably stick with it.
For me, the best part of Undertale is up on Spotify. I really do not enjoy the act of playing that game at all.
I think he needs to at least attempt two up top for a few games. Norwood put in a decent enough shift on Saturday but he was isolated for large chunks of the match.
