The Definitive edition of Recore  fix or improve a lots of the flaws the games has. 

With bigger budget and more work, Recore has the potencial to be a great IP.

yeah I looked through the TA list to remind me what kind of Metroidvania games I've played and ReCore appeared as well.

The Batman Arkham games are on there as well and it's kinda true!

wtf happened to the My Games & Apps library? I haven't used my X1 in about 6 weeks and now I boot it up and everything that was cleat cut and convenient is now messed up and a chore to do anything.

I wouldn't call Recore a metroidvania game. Grinding orbs to open new territories is not the same as getting actual upgrades that open paths that can't be reached normally. It is actually the biggest problem with this game. It was supposed and expected by everyone to be a metroidvania, but they used this cheap lazy approach instead of thinking about creating some really interesting game mechanics and upgrades. Still the biggest disappointment for me this gen to this day. I initially bought Xbox One mainly for this game.

I have this since December as I'm in insider beta ring and I agree it is awful. Already posted here some time ago how I'm dissatisfied with them hiding "Updates" and "Queue" even further so it is hard to reach in a few clicks. It is no rocket science how to do this optimal way. Just look at how PS4 does this, copy the main idea, but make it better. "Updates" and "Queue" should be reachable from home screen IMO.

I don't see any logic in hiding all the stuff away behind an extra 2-3 layers of clicking the only Library used to have everything sorted into simple tabs and visible at all times with an easy switch between what's install;ed and what is ready to install which again doing these functions now requires a few more clicks/scrolling. I don't get what you mean on the PS4 though? As good as the UI was at the start of the gen compared to Xbox it feels dated and slow now and requires to much time to scroll to the library compared to the X1 UI that has just been replaced anyway and that UI what we had for Q4 2019 was probably the best console UI I've ever used, Seems weird they would replace it.

I was talking specifically about "Downloads/Updates" section and how you can access it on PS4 right from home screen. That's something that I believe MS should copy from Sony because this section is one of the most important things that should be shown in the first place. Not additional stuff like GamePass, Mixer, etc. I also been using 360 in the last two months and haven't used Xbone since early January at all. I'm quite impressed how 360 dashboard is way faster to boot and navigate. What a step back both Sony and MS did in terms of OS this gen.

Ah right that makes sense I was thinking of the boarder UI things, I do hope in the next iteration they revert to the previous Games and Apps because if not we are probably quite close to the UI next gen will end up using as I don't see XSX getting a completely new overall but just whatever X1 currently has as we move into the Autumn.

The biggest frustration I have with the Xbox One UI/OS is how god damn long it takes for the console to load 1,000~ titles into the "my games category".

Having to rebuild my games database every time I turn the machine on is pretty unnecessary and a waste of my time, I would rather there was a "check" every time you tried to launch a game, rather than every time I turn the system on.

Games with Gold is pretty mediocre this month, missed opportunity by not throwing Ori and the Blind Forest as a title in my opinion, is what it is though.

Good month. I played the first Batman telltale game but never got around to this one. Will be good to play through with the ex actually. Thankfully we still get along well enough to do these things a friends.

Gears for me. I love Halo too but i think Gears gameplay is more fun.

I speak only about SP in both cases since i don't play online.
