I'm now full steam ahead with Red Dead Redemption 2. I have a feeling it will end up as my GOTY for the year. But we'll see. I am hoping to also finish Witcher 3, Persona 5 and Starfield this year.
These games considered game of the generations for 8th gen. One of them will be GotG candidate for 9th gen hopefully. So all games that you'll play are really high quality but they are all very long games. RDR 2, Persona 5 Royal and The Witcher 3 (DLCs included) can be played for 350-400 hours. Those games will consume a year for me so that's why sometimes I wish we could turn back to 2013 so I could play those games day 1. So that's why I don't want to miss the current games and I've already accept that I can never finish my backlog.

Now I'll try to 100% great games instead of playing more games. Baldur's Gate III + RE4 + Diablo IV + Starfield + Spider-Man 2 + FF XVI will be enough for me in 2023.

OK, this tool and how it was built is awesome. All this work derived from a short video clip.

Only if you give him a cake.... And then clownify the cake.


Ooo dang. That's a lot of good stuff that I don't have time to get to ._, sigh

Someone mentioned the FC5 DLC being free or something right? Where is that?

There's also no reason for first party games like Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush, Age 2, etc not having physical releases
Yeah there is. Physical Xbox games just don't sell like Playstation and Switch games, especially when said games are on Game Pass. Add in that the majority of the newer Xbox consoles being made and sold don't even support physical games and it really makes sense that we're seeing Xbox de-prioritize physical media. Realistically speaking the sales potential of those games just isn't really there in terms of physical releases when they're available on Game Pass for significantly cheaper.

The only real exception is Halo, Forza and any other big budget games like Starfield. To be completely honest I'm surprised that Redfall is even getting a physical launch, because I can pretty much guarantee that it'll also sell like crap at retail

Anyone else having issues with RE engine games (RE3, MH Rise) and quick resume? Seems like I can't save when I resume a game after a while.

The delay of Forza Motorsport hits me pretty hard right now. 😢

I'm trying to justify a new Fanatec setup (and possibly a full rig to go along with it), but none of the proper pc sims really appeal to me because they're either laser-focused on a specific racing category I'll never care about (like GT racing, bleh), are super competitive, look like they launched right alongside the Xbox 360, have terrible UI and UX, or are sometimes a combination of everything I just mentioned.

I just want to drive road cars, maybe even some sportier ones, against a semi-competent AI on a race track, in a sim-like game that doesn't look like ass. Turn 10, you're my only hope!

How could they delay Forza Motorsport two months from the start of the release window, without giving us a new date? 😭

Mighty Doom is pretty fun. I died on the final boss of the first chapter from the burn just as they died so I caved and watched an ad to revive

Yeah…Basically old version would be a still black photo and the new would be a 1 second gif. I don't even get a loading helm wheel any more on PC or XSX. Even in intense combat with multiple ships and lots of loot on board. I've read similar about the XB1, too. Also an unintended fix to this is a player can't "ping" spawn locations anymore unless they guess right the first time.

Edit: actually found one. The first two are actually pretty good for the old version. You could be stuck in the black screen for up to a few minutes sometimes. The last one is representive of the new time.

Talked around at GDC a bit, does seem like Perfect Dark is indeed on a really good track right now. I know nothing else but the people I talked to seemed stocked.

Told them if MP is in that the one thing they should take from Zero is the zombie mode lol

Idk what zombie mode is for PDZ but if it's Infection then there'sa future where most MS multiplayer games will need an Infection mode.

Halo, CoD, Perfect Dark…

Hopefully we see it soon because I'm curious which direction they are taking it

I CANNOT wait to see what a modern Perfect Dark looks like. Any other cool tidbits of GDC? saw that you ( i think it was you!) played Bomb Rush Cyberfunk and was really jealous lol

Just started Dishonored: Death of the Outsider and must again sing the praises of the BC team. That 60fps option is just a game changer and the lightning fast loading times are great as well. I originally skipped the console version, due to the lack of 60fps and it's nice to have the option to replay it with that now. Such a shame Dishonored 2 didn't get it as well.

Was able to talk to Phil a bit (asked about my hospital work stuff to get Xbox to kids) and he was super chill, then talked about Shadowrun for a quick sec. If that ever comes back it's going to be a RPG lol

Other than that there is honestly just a lot of cool devs working on cool things and everyone is just super chill and welcoming.
