I got stuck in Little Acre within 10 minutes and gave up. Was enjoying it up until then, though.

As My Friend Pedro was leaving Gamepass I gave that a go instead. I really didn't think I'd get on with it, but found it great fun - still think I was doing some of the moves by fluke rather than skill but hey.

That's all what GP is for, I guess.

There is a built in hint system (with the option to reveal solution as a second step) in the pop out menu when you press Y if that helps?

Thanks. Though I think it's probably just something to do with my screen settings - not sure I was seeing the whole screen (including that full hint bar).

I just couldn't work out how to twiddle with that so it's my TV and not the game's fault at all :lol:

I'll go back to it at some point, because it was very funny.

That would be great. Without getting ahead of myself, is it cross play (as in you can play against people) with PS4, or is that still never a thing? I ask as a couple of my mates have it on PS+

It's Kiryu time!

Once I get round to playing Kiwami 2, that is. Hope these are staying on game pass for a long time.

I had not heard of this until about a month ago, but it sounds pretty cool.

Donut County should be nice breezy fun. I have been looking forward to The Medium since its announcement, and i dont know when i am going to fit in the Yak remasters. I only played Kiwami 2 when it came to Game Pass recently, so it wasn't really on my list.

Is Yakuza 3 the one that people are lukewarm on? Something to do with the fighting being too protracted?

Absolutely ridiculous value from game pass ultimate. I’m only on PC so don’t get the console stuff but with flight sim, gears, forza horizon, ori, I’m really pleased. Throw in control and desperados, it’s awesome!

Never played any of them but they always looks interesting, are they run and gun or more Xcom?

Neither really, but closer to Xcom. They’re real-time rather than turn-based, with a focus on strategy and stealth. You control individual members of a small squad, each of which has certain abilities. If you ever saw or played the old Commandos games, or the more recent Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, it’s just like those, and I adore them.
