Some games that are day 1 on Gamepass from other events earlier in the week. Really looking forward to Darktide, loved going through 4 player co-op on Vermintide.
Yeah Vermintide was good, got a bit boring though. Hopefully the sequel has more variation all round and challenge, but should still be great fun. We need to play that again sometime @RedSky I haven't hard carried you lot in a while 
Yeah, couldn't have played it alone and we didn't bother replaying missions for loot. But base, mindless co-op was good craic.Yeah Vermintide was good, got a bit boring though.

The new mode they added with new connecting missions, enemy types and perks/handicaps was a really good way of mixing it up. If everybody died you had to start from mission 1 and would go through different levels which was decent.
Hopefully they do something similar.
Will we see anything from Sea of Thieves Lambs? Expansion?
Do you think they'll ever do a SOT 2 or will they just see this as a platform to build on? It's still up there in the Xbox and Steam charts often. Clearly been a big success.

Yeah agreed, it is a lot of fun playing as a group. Especially getting to wind up @hobbers and charging off clearing the map before sky even gets a shot and listening to him bitch about his character choice for hours
You should join us sometime, the caf discord games can be a laugh.They've just done a major event and had a huge update for the season. Might see some future plans, but it's a constantly evolving game and definitely still making them plenty of money.
I doubt there'll be a SOT 2 for a while yet, if ever. It would be like the Overwatch 2 nonsense. But they really REALLY need to rebuild the netcode, as much as I love the game (and stand by my opinion that it is the best overall game on GP) I've not played in a while as I am going through another phase of hating the hit registration problems to the point where I just can't be bothered with it. But I will go back, as after a break the sailing around always feels great and the PvP can be epic.

Persona 3-5 coming to Xbox
Likely coming to gamepass too.
We were talking about that the other day.Yeah Vermintide was good, got a bit boring though. Hopefully the sequel has more variation all round and challenge, but should still be great fun. We need to play that again sometime @RedSky I haven't hard carried you lot in a while
There's some LOTR game coming out probably in 2023 to do with being Dwarves in Moria. Looked like our type of shit.
Amazing! I've been waiting years for Persona 5 to come to Switch, half wondering if I should just buy it on PS4 instead.
Also generally good for Xbox because there's barely any JRPGs
Me too. The first game was a great concept done on a budget. Would like to see what they can do with a bigger budget. Same goes for HB2 and Avowed interested to see what those 2 publishers can do with a larger budget.
Yeah it was an interesting concept which made for a game that's a bit different, although the whole rat fire thing got quite repetitive. Enjoyed it though.
For a game done on a budget, it was definitely a looker with some excellent animation and voice acting as well. It did just enough to keep it interesting for its +-12 hour play time. Not sure how well it'll hold up in a sequel though, as I'm expecting more of the same. It helps that the characters and story kept me invested in the game.

What's with all the demon games these days? Is it a theme that people really enjoy?
Game genres seem to go in cycles. At Summer Games Fest half of the games were sci fi horror.
Wonder if we get gamepass family pricing and cloud only pricing. Needs to be a cheaper xcloud only subscription for people using the likes of the TV app.
Scorn's art style and atmosphere looks fantastic, but I can't get over how incredibly boring its gameplay looks. I'll be very surprised if it's anything above mediocre.
So we're going to see actual Starfield gameplay now, right?
Yes.
Imagine paying £450 to wait 14 minutes 
Here's hoping there's some surprises for this year that aren't remakes / remasters (Banjo, Gears, Goldeneye). Would expect gamepass day 1 on some third party titles, something like Gotham Knights, Saints Row, MK12. But would be great if they did have something up their sleeve from 1st party studio - Diablo 4 (not 1p yet but still), or something from Obsidian/Compulsion games/InExile/Wolfenstein 3.
Next year it's pretty clear will be a huge year for them.
Starfield could be the biggest release Xbox have had since the early Halo games. Single games matter a lot less to a publisher with gamepass and 30 other studios but even so. Interesting to see how it lands.

Imagine paying £450 to think Bethseda are suddenly going to redeem themselves.
Next year. Next gen. 'la!
That's a brilliant line up if true.
Saw that on Discord but don't know how accurate it is. If true I hope the Kojima game is back to his early MGS form and less the latter MGS games and that walking simulator.
It's the best experience already of the consoles already. But next year will be something else.
To be fair, 2023 could be huge across the board if GOW slips alongside Starfield and BOTW 2.
What is?
You thought that last year as well (for this year)
But yeah, I agree 2023 should be huge with the number of games scheduled to be released, either delayed from this year or releases from the acquired publishers.

Shouldn't be hard.
Not sure I was ever as bullish about this year tbh, and it was as clear cut but this year has definitely disappointed after the momentum from last year.
I did say last year that I was surprised Starfield was given a release date, and that Redfall in summer seemed ambitious unless the lack of gameplay was just due to covid resources.
Don't make me tap the sign
As soon as any game is announced as being on the creation engine, am I supposed to laugh or shed a tear?
Series X
Obviously it's subjective. Obviously it's just my opinion. But I do have all 3, and barely play the other 2. Gamepass is mega.
Pre-beta gameplay
And like Liverpool fans under Klopp, I will eventually be rightIt's been 10 straight years he's been saying that Damo
It's a matter of 'when' not 'if'
Whatever this is looks naff
