Oh all those recent Gifs and shit came from the Steam page being updated too.

But yeah, Microsoft barely does what would be described as mainstream marketing anymore, I don't think we're going to see Avowed ads plastered over buses and TV. But I personally saw a lot of Indiana Jones Reddit ads and such near launch so we'll probably get those, Lol. Microsoft marketing overall is very anaemic and they seem to rely now on Game Pass/WoM to sell their games.

Anyway...

nice banner 👀 @xbox.com

There's not even a disc holder in the steelbook. Just sad.

Ooof first month is always funny with the easy gamerscore games. Tales of Graces f Remastered was right outside the top 20 at #22 with 445.

Dynasty Warriors seems to be doing quite well, the last two entries on TA were...

  • Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires with 2,328 in 2022
  • Dynasty Warriors 9 with 9,737 in 2018

My question is should I continue doing a combined list of 20. games or do a top 10 gamepass and top 10 non-gamepass list?
