Yep, it's awesome isn't it? I'd recommend waiting for a great deal on it and then just stacking it for ages, I'm currently paid up until Feb 2020.

I can't believe Halo: MCC comes out on the 1st as I will only have a few days before going on holiday. I might have time to play through Halo 1. I am looking forward to coming back when it's all autumnal and playing Fable Anniversary. It's nearly Christmas!

Pretty happy with OnRush and another Sky Force game. Already own Halo and Manuel Samuel and have finished Quantum Break so it's not the best month for me personally.

Sky force is a brilliant game. Very happy with Quantum Break as I had planned to get it eventually anyway. Now all I need is Killer Instinct (full 3 seasons) and Blast Corps to come to the games pass.

Played some of State of Decay 2 yesterday as I love zombies. And uninstalled it pretty quickly. Might uninstall Halo 5 as so far it's very poor and the collection looks like a better use of my time.

Bit quick for Onrush! Pleased about Aven Colony too. Very nearly bought that a couple of times.

You should all try Manual Samuel. It's insane. With a certain character that grates, but is appropriate.

I hammered Onrush during the free weekend it had earlier in the month, a fun arcade racer. It did feel like a £15 game max to me though, rather than full RRP as it is a more samey type of experience like Rocket League.

I have had a few of these games, but will check out the arcade titles and may even venture back to playing the Halo games again.

I wanted to play Snake Pass with my daughter too!

Manual Samuel is some quick fun, getting them Gs. Also have played some Halo, never really got this franchise and it still does not grab me.

I got confused for a minute there. I totally forgot that ODST wasn't part of the main package. Did we get it free if we bought MCC early, or something?

I think anyone that bought the MCC before a specific date got it for free.

Makes sense. It's in my game, but I know I wouldn't have paid extra for it.

Yeah they gave it away as a make good for all the multiplayer issues that MCC had on release. Anyway, subscribed to this for a year using some cheap codes from CD keys. Going to have a look tonight and download some stuff. In particular Im ooking forward to sinking my teeth into some Halo again.
