Perhaps you did? Check the Xbox tab for owned games. I know that even in game pass, you can still purchase to own. Unless do you have another account in that box?

It says owned, well I be damned. I cannot imagine that my sharing buddy, my brother bought it. So odd. Usually when a XGS title comes out I don’t buy it, since I sub to GP.

My dumb ass really should’ve checked this first. Because I can’t return the code now, after you agree to terms on Eneba you can’t get a refund anymore, even if the code has not been redeemed, damn. But who knows, maybe an exception can be made. If not I’ll post the code here for someone to redeem it.

Fable was shown in July 2020, June 2023 and June 2024. Perfect Dark was shown in December 2020 and then this past June 2024 so I agree with you. Microsoft has shown other games two and in some cases three years in a row and while Jason didn’t mention them by name, the point is that he’s complaining about Microsoft showing games multiple years in a row but yet fails to acknowledge that Sony has done the same thing even though he knows they have.

Like I have said before, both Sony and Microsoft do the same shit. The only difference is that Sony gets praised for it but Microsoft gets bashed for it.

I like watching TGA live, there’s always a game trailer that I wouldn’t watch going by its YouTube thumbnail lol

There is no IP that Sony has that has that screams oh shit except we’re talking maybe licensed media like another Marvel game. The way some are talking I would imagine it’s either another bloodborne or a remake of it. On that note the CFO has said they are lacking fostered IPs. This anime push could splinter into their games perhaps even more movie rights. I believe Sony owns the Masters of the Universe live action rights, so who knows maybe Naughty Dog decided on joining the superhero devs.

The rumor for TGA from Sony is Naughty Dog revealing their new IP.

Basically safe money.

I can see why shareholders would be more lax now.

Hopefully it’s received well, maybe even start a trend of people actually buying newer single player IP.

Yeah, I agree. It is rumored to be a CGI trailer similar to when they revealed TLOU 2 in 2016 if I remember correctly. I just want to know what it is.

Agree as well; all the console kiddos aside, single-player experiences are on a decline.

So, I really wasn’t too bothered about playing Indiana Jones. I do enjoy the movies but I’m no super fan. But man! I think it may just be one of my favourite games of the year.

I had a funny glitch with Giana tho, she would get stuck in Sanctuary of the Guardians level. I had to push her all the way to the scorpion part for it to trigger and do her thing so I could progress.

As I said in the other thread, I just wish the rights would revert back to Marvel now.

IMO they are damaging Marvel’s reputation.

Apart from a few smaller titles that are owned by Hasbro & Mattel etc they have almost regained all their rights now:

The amount of times Giana has run in front of me while taking a photo…

Watch how a teaser for the rumored Valve console gets shown at TGA. Then Half-Life 3 gets announced, everything looks amazing and then it says exclusive to Steam Box 2 or whatever they would call it.

That would be insane, but nowadays probably not a realistic scenario anymore. If a HL3 was to happen at all and a new Valve console…they wouldn’t keep that exclusive. There is no guarantee their system will be a success and you can’t have such a huge IP locked up there, they’d want the Sony, Microsoft and probably Nintendo money too.

Mafia got leaked. It’s coming in Summer 2025.

That’s a good time to release I think. Makes me wonder when Borderlands drops.

Hopefully Mafia trailer has ingame bits.

were you a Game Pass subscriber and purchased a DLC for Forza 4 before 2024 perhaps? Iirc everyone who did this received a license for FH4 digitally.

Snippets show mainly cut scene, but in their defense, it was like 10 seconds. Also, when it rewind, it shows glimpse of gameplay.
