Btw try Evil west, its decent 3rd person shooter which is not a AAA budget game but its like the days of good £15/20 title that you can shoot some bad guys in a weekend

I played the demo earlier this year but now it's out in early access I want to say Lightyear Frontier is delightful.

So Diablo IV hits game pass on the 28th. For all the hate it is definitely worth playing through the campaign and, in my opinion, has some value in getting to level 100 and experiencing the end game.
However I seriously recommend you do not play until Season 4 drops in May as there are major itemisation changes and other improvements that players have wanted for months and they should change the experience significantly. They should be worth waiting for.

Played a bit of diablo 4 on Xbox (having already done the main campaign on pc when it came out).
It's nice being able to access my character on both platforms, and the game is still fun. Also I may be imagining it but it looks like they've fixed HDR on PC...

Well worth a look for those that crave the simpler days of the 360/PS3 3rd person shooter. It's very much of the Shadows of the Damned and Dark Sector slightly janky AA ilk. It's like Gears of War and Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter had a baby. The combat is *ridiculously* satisfying. Recommended.

Haha, a bunch of horror games leaving exactly 6 months after mid-October when they’d have wanted them for Halloween

LEGO 2K Drive is being added tomorrow, looks quite good. Shadow of the Tomb Raider Definitive Edition adds all the dlc missions, no idea if they are any good
edit: this looks good

EA play is going up in price, which may lead to gamepass ultimate going up in price at some point. Also MS are stopping you stacking extra months in countries that is a lot cheaper to get gamepass

I'd bet on MS separating them from GPU instead of hiking the price up to cover it. Their partnership would probably have a set price for X years though, so I doubt it'll filter through to subs straight away (if at all)

Post by paulyboy81 on Apr 11, 2024 16:39:51 GMT
With the stacking thing it'll still be cheap to grab subs from those regions, just means you'll have to do it a year at a time, or every 8 months if converting to Ultimate.
Stacking is useful for protecting you from prices rises or capitalising on a decent deal for codes obviously, but losing it in those regions doesn't mean the end to cheap foreign Game Pass necessarily.
One slight cost increase will be having to buy a few cheap Ultimate codes to convert over the period, as opposed to just the one for the stacked period.
Only applicable to those fanny around with VPNs for Game Pass obviously (like myself).
I see *actual* Ultimate subs are unaffected, so if you find a deal on those from a foreign store you could still stack them.

They need to put Jedi survivor on GPU first, then not bothered if MS remove EA games from ultimate

Is back 4 blood the first time a day one game has gone? I thought day one game pass games were permanent.

Post by paulyboy81 on Apr 11, 2024 17:01:44 GMT
Definitely not permanent, only first party games can generally claim that advantage.
Day One stuff usually sticks around for a fair while mind you, but this isn't the first time, happened before with stuff like Outriders, The Ascent, etc, etc. Back4Blood has been on the service for 2 and half years, not a bad innings.

Day 1 games leave all the time as paulyboy81 said
Even some first party games can leave if delisted due to licence issues like music or cars, I think the licence issue is better for newer games?
Also the new game added Botany manor has great bug, does not matter if you save, you can lose all progress on xbox when to load your save. Just fyi

Great game for Gamepass. Just hope they keep it up on gp for at least 12 months to give subscribers a chance to actually finish it!

It should be on GP for 12 months or more for 3rd parties, only GTA and RDR2 stay on GP for about 3 months

Very disappointed it’s on available today. I read somewhere that it was on the store to download and I’ve basically got a free day so was well up for being a Jedi slob all day in my pants.
Guess I’ll finish the fallout tv show instead.

Vortex Not wanting to burst your bubble, but Survivor is more of everything compared to Fallen Order, including mud slides
It is a worthy successor tho'...

Low-key disappointed they didn't hold off for a few days more and release it on May 4th.

Thanks. I will steel myself for more slip-slidin' around. It annoyed me quite a bit by the end of the game last time round, but the core game itself was decent enough that i will definitely give this one a go to. Even if it will probably bug the shit out of me as soon as it starts!
