Xbox Chat - Warface: Breakout & Metal Slug 3 now free with Gold.

Then again, not sure I can handle scary games any more. I tried the Medium through Gamepass the other night, and lasted about 15 minutes.

You should go back to it. I'm like you that I can't do suspense / scary games these days (resi 7, Outlast 1&2, etc are too much for me) but I completed The Medium without any issue. There are a couple of stealth moments in it and pseudo-tension but nothing like Resi7's escape from the dinner table (that's as far as I managed in that game!)

Has anyone had trouble claiming Gears 5? Mine goes through but then when I revisit it in the store it says I can get it free with gold again. Both on console and web browser. It also doesn’t show in the list of GwG titles in my game library

Mine continues to say “get it free”, but it is in my GwG library also I believe.

Some announcement or show is incoming because the amount of Xbox/MS employee's randomly talking about Bethesda is picking up the pace. We'll finally know that it's all gonna be exclusive*

*apart from 'maybe' existing franchises like Doom and Wolfenstein who's third iterations I reckon will be multiplat along with the online only stuff, unannounced stuff though, and Starfield/TES6 is exclusive.

I read somewhere that the Bethesda deal should be approved around the 5th of March, so MS might be doing some sort of online event to celebrate after that. Hopefully it does happen and we get a little surprise too. Not expecting too much though with E3 season not being far off.

Well, I'll give it another go. I loved the vibe of it, really. There was something creepy about it but intriguing, and the idea really appealed; seemed like there was a good story behind it all. I might just play it on Sunday afternoons, whilst it's still daylight, is my thinking.

I've given up on Resi 7 in VR soooo many times. That games needs an 18+ PTSD rating.

Is Starfield this year or next?

Yup - read the same thing.

Also read that they're aiming for this year - but I can't see it happening unless it's nearly done. Holiday season is going to be chocker with some absolute massive games; Halo, BF6, New COD. Especially if it does end up being an exclusive.

Peter Crisp confirms Starfield 5th March 2021 Xbox Series exclusive release. On Gamepass. No lootboxes. Voice chat enabled. You heard it here first.

That Games with Gold offering is a bit of a pisstake, even more so. Beyond gooseberry fool.

I made it about 5 hours in, with a friend in my ear on chat. Thats was all i could manage before feeling like i needed counseling. Resi 7 in VR is pure terror.

Rumours it's looking to release towards the end of this year... no doubt we'll find out soon.

The Games with Gold this month (and most months tbh - bar this Feb) has been dreadful.

Finally sit down to play something.

Live sign-in issues FFS.

[Squinty]

Was about to ask if this was just me. I can't sign in at all.

Been over an hour now.

The continued joys of modern gaming. You find an hour or whatever in your day to play and something screws your over. And before you know it your evening has concluded and all you’ve managed to do is watch Gordon Ramsay prancing around the Tardis...

[Corazon de Leon]

This is still ongoing. I wouldn't mind if it would let me just play offline, but alas.

Oh for god’s sake, they’ve tinkered with the layout of the store. The new games section, which has always been at the top, where it should be, is now five rows down. What idiot decided that was a good idea?
