There were some complaints about the lack of save and quit, as runs could be pretty long and someone else might want to use the PS5. That's more a convenience thing and less about fairness though.

Anyway, brilliant game. If you haven't done it already, try switching sprint to always on in settings. Was a game changer for me, but might not work for everyone.

Ahhh, that makes sense. I'm on PC and it's in there so I'm guessing they've since patched it in.

Also the sprint tip makes sense, cheers. I'm still confused about the terminology and items, but that's the best part of games for me, figuring stuff out and being overwhelmed at the start. Also no way I'm ever turning down items even if corrupted (too greedy!), so I feel like I'm in for a long ride :lol:

But this is right up my street, I liked Remnant a lot and this is the perfect fast paced compliment to that (and borrows plenty from it too, which is not a bad thing).


Anyway, probably shouldn't go on about it in here anymore. Will make the X-Bots jealous!

Returnal is a cracking game. Surprised such an esteemed gamer as yourself has yet to play it ;)

Waiting for PC + patches and then forgot about it. Elvis mentioned it the other day during the whole exclusives thing and reminded me about it.

Plus I just have so many games to catch up on, and have been teaching my son Rimworld, so yeah...shut it you.

(It's off to a cracking start, got me hooked!)

Redfall looks like a PS2 game :lol:

This thread is to discuss the Xbox Series X and its games only. Go to the PlayStation 2 thread if you wish to discuss that console, and if you wish to compare the two/console war, go to the PS2 vs Xbox Series X thread.
 
Is the 64 metacritic score unrepresentative? 64 suggests a forgettable, underwhelming misfire, not the absolute shitfest it's being described as here.

It is inflated. 64/100 should be remotely playable.

I just watched the SkillUp review and wow. It is shocking.

Saw your comment and gave it a watch. Hilarious review but feck me - what the hell were those developers up to? That bulb mission was particularly special.

No mate, metacritic is the be all and end all

That's a relief

Aggregated critic scores will never be reflective of games from big studio developers. Fanboy reviewers and paid-for reviews always push the average up. Forspoken also sitting at 64 on Metacritic and that's a 3/10 shitfest same as Redfall.

Ah yeh, makes sense. I'm not in the know with this sort of thing so appreciate the explanation.
 
Not much on Xbox I am too excited far right now until Forza Motorsport arrives. Always preferred the Motorsport games over the Horizon ones.

At the minute I am back on Cities Skylines but other than that my Xbox has become a paperweight recently. I was interested in Redfall but I think I will stay clear of it. It is giving me Fallout 76/Cyberpunk release vibes.

Same devs but diff team. It was the team who made Prey. The Deathloop team are the ones who made Dishonoured.

Worth noting that the lead on Prey and studio co-founder, Raphael Colantonio, left after Prey. Since that departure I feel Arkane have lost their way.

Is it as shit as fifa 22?

Just wanna make United great again in career mode.

Career mode is atrocious as per. The AI only attacks one way and they score whenever they want because the devs can't be arsed to do anything else with it.

Oh, that’s what I expected unfortunately :(
 
With Succession and the footy coming to an end I've cancelled Sky and sold my house
