Defining Duke, Episode 51: The Best & Worst Of Xbox Game Pass
Added 2021-12-23 17:01:03 +0000 UTCIt's the holiday season and maybe Santa got some of you a shiny new Xbox! With that Xbox (or PC, we didn't forget!) you might find yourself perusing the catalog of hundreds of Game Pass games. It can be overwhelming to sift through page after page of alluring games especially with how great so many of them are. Matty and Cog are lucky enough to be able to sit down and play many of these games to help guide the audience towards or away from them. Today, we present to you our Top 5 Game Pass games of the year, Game Pass busts of the year, and even xCloud picks. It's a culmination of the must plays, precedent setters, fraud alerts, too-little-too-lates, and streamable games that filled out a busy 2021 calendar for Xbox.

2021-12-27 15:16:14 +0000 UTCGoing by Cog's criticism of the game I wonder if there was some kind of patch to fix the repetitive dialog in 12 Minutes. I didn't play it until it had been out for about a month but not only could you press A to skip dialog you have already seen but once you have exhausted every option on it you didn't get a choice but to skip it. If I go into my game now and start talking to the wife about the loop he will immediately explain everything to her so we can move past it. If I pick up the phone and call the daughter about the cop he will immediately explain everything to her. I cant imagine how terrible that game must have been if you couldnt skip the already heard dialogue. That would be rough.

So licensing is an incredibly stupid excuse to remove games from stores. If bass ackwards early playstation store Sony got it right, everyone else should have too. Forza 7 only came out in 2017 lol

2021-12-26 06:11:39 +0000 UTCWorst of game pass and xbox : removing forza 7 from gamepass and the digital storefronts entirely. Now you literally cannot buy even one of the forza motorsport games from the Microsoft store. One of their 3 biggest series, and you can't buy any of them. You have to get used retail copies only and no DLC support But at least unlike Sony, xbox doesn't shut down multi-player servers for a very long time
