It’s not BC so it won’t be added to Game Pass.

The final batch of Xbox 360 last chance sales will be announced on 7/18.

I heard it’s part of the previously announced layoffs, just that it takes time for going through the announcements and WARNs and other things, but I’m not certain.

In a sense all those old IPs are not his anymore but the phone IP does belong to him so it does make sense. He would probably be willing to do a new IP or something he controls and owns. When you’re a grandfather heritage becomes more important. He’d be looking for something to leave behind that cements that legacy.

It’s kinda awesome how timeless Ocarina of Time is. Been playing it all afternoon and I can’t drop it. And you really see how it was ahead of its time back then too.

Big open field/map with handcrafted towns/villages and dungeons and temples. It just works, still does. The very aged graphics and borders left and right don’t matter at all. For me this is timeless.

Just got the master sword.

Your call but I wouldn’t bet on this happening in the next 25 days.

CoD classic was never BC while all the others were so it might be a technical issue, in which case don’t hold your breath

Decided to try The First Descendant because I need a new MMO type of game to play now that ESO is unplayable for me. But can’t connect to the servers, on the upside it has Frame generation as an option for the games graphic settings, along with 3 modes Fidelity, Balanced and Performance.

I’m thinking I should just try out Neverwinter and the other MMOs that I’m not playing as well.

One of the GOATs no doubts about it. The 3DS version is good but I wouldn’t play it now with that resolution probably. I hope it is remade sometime.

This game has grind on it’s grind on it’s grind. I saw some stuff posted on the discord and it was just so bad with deliberateness to drive people to spend money to “speed up the process”. You have to collect things. Then you have to forge them into new components – and wait unless you pay to finish now. Then you can take those new components and forge them into a new item – and wait unless you pay to finish now.

KillerBean on Discord:

first descendant. you need to grind materials to buy materials lol then if you happen to get enough to unlock the character each one has a “research time” before it can be used. i saw some enhanced versions in there that take like 8 days. but you can speed that up by guess what? in game currency!

this was for a basic skin. 1.5 days to unlock and each yellow item you need requires multiple hours of material grinding to buy the part and a lot of gold

Pretty much Warframe probably, the only reason I stopped playing was because the piece a needed to incubate a pet and continue the story wasn’t dropping. But I didn’t really do much grinding anyways, also ESO has timers for research that I think go all the way up pass 10 days, so really that’s not too bad.

Edit: So just to make sure, I looked it up and the longest timer for research without the skill points to make it go faster is 57 days, with them it’s 27 days. Shortest is 5 hours without 4 with, but as we research more stuff that timer jumps up.

Which Ghost Recon? I only completed Wildlands which I loved. Played Breakpoint for a few hours at launch and later on when they removed the Gear Score, etc. and still didn’t like it.

As for The Ascent, I thought it was a great twin stick shooter. Really enjoyed it. But I did play it completely solo so I would imagine that playing in co-op would be even more fun and enjoyable.

Microsoft fulfilling the prophecy of seeing more of their games on other systems:

This is what I want from the handheld to be similar to how this looks, if they can make the screen bigger but keep the feeling of holding an Xbox controller I’ll be day 1. I feel like a foldable screen would be awesome for something like this, bring back the DS days haha. If you can have it small like this phone but able to unfold it for a bigger screen whenever that could be cool.

Cope: Good, we don’t need Netflix for their low budget. That’s what I see. In other post, it’s either good for not making on or good for not being part of Netflix.
