Only just seen this. It was pretty good, but like other Mafia games, started to get a little samey mission wise.

Cut scenes and story were top notch.

Probably wait for it to come to game pass then.

Just finished Thank Goodness You're Here, which is on most platforms I think, but I picked it up on PS5.

Bloody brilliant little game, just for the story and characters, I only bought it because I saw it was a Yorkshire game but didn't disappoint. Played through last night, then played through again today to sweep up the trophies.

This one's been on my list for a while, I'll look out for it on Black Friday deals!

Powerwash Simulator 2 100%'d - get in!

Anyone tried this ARC Raiders? Seems to be getting a lot of attention. Game looks insane and certainly tempting me in although never really got into extraction shooters.

[Ay Ay Ron]

Anyone actually bothered to get that?

I did think about it for the campaign but then I seem it was online only, no pauses, and you fight a giant.

 

[Ray Gin]

I only know a couple that have tried it on the gamepass and it’s apparently awful.

I’ll be playing whatever the new Warzone is but f**k playing multiplayer on that 😂

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Yeah I'll still play warzone (whenever we have enough people on) but I don't think I'll get that.

Annoyingly, I went to go on warzone the other night and found I had to download it again after the update. The update had installed 150gb or so of BO7 content for me 😂

I had 1 quick game just to try it out on cloud play and the movement feels very fluid and responsive after playing Battlefield. I actually quite enjoyed bouncing off the walls etc too as stupid as it seems it's still kind of fun.

I really can't see me touching it much though as I'm really enjoying BF6 and ARC Raiders. If you didn't have to f**k about leveling everything up I'd probably be more inclined to jump on but I simply can't be bothered to go through the COD leveling process.

Gunna download Arc Raiders tomorrow. Looks pretty good!

Been playing Dispatch over the weekend, not the normal type of game I'd play but one of my favourite this year.

 

[Matt Cup]

Hopefully this will be good. I used to spend hours at my mates house playing the original Carmageddon when I was a youngun.

Been smashing Halo online again recently, mostly just tactical slayer when I’m on my own or tactical and husky raid with my mate(s).
Finally made it to Diamond, felt like a slog to get here so I think this is my level now 😂

Has anyone bought or used an xbox game pass account rather than a key? the savings look massive, i also never play online, been looking at PC Game Pass and can get a 12 month account version for £47.00ish, it's well over £100 normally, i just play single player, never talk to anyone on it, so it would just be used to download games from game pass and play single player, link below :-

You buy one first and let us all know if it’s legit.

If i do i will let you know, quite a few places sell them.

 

[Daz...]

I’d assume you can still play on your own account as long as it’s on the same machine as the one with ultimate. Unless that doesn’t work on PC.

You should be able to switch account.

I did something very similar for YouTube premium from a link off here where I bought a username/password. Worked like a charm.

 

[Willo40]

Seems you buy an account with a 12 month game pass subscription, they just supply login details, but would assume you can only download the games to that account, not on your own account.

This game looks pretty bonkers, going to have to pick it up I think...

Skate Story Review - IGN

Fusing a solid foundation of satisfyingly grounded skate tricks with a bizarre, abstract world, Skate Story wobbles a little under its weirdness but there’s no doubt it’s one of the most distinctive skateboarding games of the decade.

Looking good, would fit right in on COD.

 

[SharkyUK]

Finally 100% on Brotato!

Great little game for when you only have an hour or so free to play.

I think I'm having a seizure.
