Digital Sportspage

Some nice franchise stuff, but I'm not sure it's $70 worth for me at release this year.

is that the new one? It was free on gamepass first day release and I liked it too. it was hard at some points and I think I got stuck in one of the first levels.

Yes it is, and it's at 120fps so it's as smooth as butter.

I just want a college basketball game. March Madness was such a fun game.

I've been having a blast with Hollow Knight: Silksong

It's a fantastic game if you're into SW like I am.

At least this thread has made me restart another RDR 2 playthrough.

I saw this yesterday.

NFL Gameday 98 was amazing. I remember being deployed on ship to the Med while in the Marine Corps. Many games of this (and NBA Live '97) were played for liberty money lol. Oh man, such good times.

Find the intro to this on youtube if you can, so good. The commercials were ...

1. MLB The Show 25
2. Atomfall
3. CFB 26
4. Borderlands 4
5. AC Shadows

I believe it's only if you owned the digital version, I have a disk copy of RDR but I've read that won't get you the free upgrade.

Bummer...

The biggest problem with CFB 25 is the CPU defense calls press coverage too much, allowing easy streak pass TD's, even with average teams and many times late in games when they are winning. The defense in CFB 26 is so much better as are the QOL improvements in recruiting, presentation, day to night ...

if you have xbox gamepass, OW2 it's available now

I have the Essential plan.

There is no way the PS6 will be $600. Hell, a steak here in Missouri isn't too far from that.

I'm still playing my Mizzou dynasty in CFB 26. Madden is terrible, so I'm glad CFB has kept my interest.

Yeah, I'm trying to dig back into The Outer Worlds (the first one) because I want to get OW 2 at some point. I didn't even know they had an XSX upgrade with improved visuals and 60fps. (Spacer's Choice Edition) I forgot how beautiful this game is.

Although I've played Halo in the past, none of them kept my interest.

Exactly PK, and at my age, I doubt I'll purchase another console, the XSX will last me until I can't game anymore.

Dishonored 2 via GP.

I've heard there will be a title update next week as well. I still haven't played it much since release.

Whoa whoa whoa. MVP Baseball would like a word with you. I still play it, and the College baseball version to this day.


I loved MVP, as well as FPS Baseball and High Heat. This years MLB The Show has been such a great ride, 5 seasons, and although with CFB taking most of my time right now, I ...

No baseball game could ever compete with The Show, that's my opinion and being an XSX owner, I'm so happy I can support them.

Would love some CBB though.

Yeah, I can give you tons of PC game recommendations. I do play my XSX quite a bit though and my daughters bought me an Elite 2 controller for my birthday, which goodness.. what a controller this thing is!

For Core/Essential do you get all the gamepass games except the first day release games?

No, you get very limited games.

Like Danimal said, BG 3 is a fantastic game! (at least on PC)

I have core and just purchased Hades.. not a huge deal, but I see it's included on 'Essential' now. They are going to kill off many XBGP users with this crap. Thankfully, essential is still the same price as core.

You bet! It's a fun side scroller, Hades is great too if you've never played it, I believe both are on GP standard and ultimate (I only have core).

Borderlands is one of my favorite series and BL 4 is excellent!
