I remember my mom bringing me to Best Buy in spring 2004 right after I had gotten my Gamecube the previous Christmas. I bought Smash Melee and Mario Sunshine. I was 7 years old.
I had gotten games before then but those were the first two I was taken to the store to buy myself.
I still remember holding them as I walked down the aisle toward the registers. Aaaand that was the cheapest those two games ever got lol
Most of them do, yeah. There’s a big ugly box on the front of the ones that do not, so you can avoid them. Same with Switch 1 games that require a download.
Remember back when this AI Slop jock jagoff was making great games? Feels like an eternity ago.
It’s gonna be like 80 bucks isn’t it?
Looks like my 3070 is finally coming up against the wall. Only other game that made it chug was Oblivion Remastered. Maybe I should have gotten a 9070XT when they were $530… ah well.
That’s what Microslop thinks.
Okay so all 4 Series X consoles sold, including mine. I won’t use it, so that leaves 3 possibilities left.
Remember when Epic made Unreal and Gears of War? Now their CEO, same guy, btw, is some AI slop jock asshole. This doesn’t surprise me.
I’m going back and getting some Xbox 360 achievements right now, but I don’t really do it in new games.
Convenience is the sole reason the majority of my friends own consoles but no PC, still today. I have tried to convince them and they just will not. And now they can’t get a PC, so… eh.
Ahhhh, very good point. I wonder if they just didn’t feel it was necessary to do, or there was some technical hurdle in the way. Here’s hoping they can get something going and maybe bring it to Win11 too so then the Linux guys can get to work on making it compatible.
Right, but you cannot play those two games on PC. So if the new console PC hybrid uses Windows, I don’t forsee those games running. I may be missing something though.
Train Goes Right, I think it was called, is a relaxing physics-based isometric view, Sega Saturn/PS1-styled game where you build a railroad by hand.
You lay the ties, put the ballast down, place the rails down, and hammer everything in. Then you can hop in a handcart and ride your track you built. The trailer implies the full game will have actual train locomotives and stuff too. It’s very chill and a fun game to play in small spurts of time. You can save your progress and come back at any time so there is no sort of looming Majora’s Mask moon.
Watch it not even be able to play native 360 titles due to the architecture. Gears of War 2 and 3 will be locked to consoles forever if that happens.
This is why Xbox dying is a bad thing.
DOA is my guess but they’ll probably prop it up for a month or so.
Well that title is certainly intriguing, having never heard of this before.
I swear I remember looking this up a year ago and hearing this. Was that just a rumor then?
I should have tried to make my racetrack into Rainbow Road. Now that’s an idea.
My Xbox One was not worth $500 at all, ever during its lifespan. My Series X is solely a 360 Pro. I think I’m done with these. How the mighty have fallen.
