I'm thinking Xbox is going to have a showcase sometime next week. They've been awfully quite lately and the fact we didn't get any Game Pass updates this past week has me thinking they have something planned very soon. The other side of this is that they are changing the way they do Game Pass announcements and will have them in the middle of the month, which I'm really not a fan of.

I agree, every two weeks was great, but it is bit weird aswell because it is kind of overwhelming when P3/4/MH rise releases so soon on gamepass.






Please everyone maintain their hype…. But imagine they announce the Starfield release date!!! HYPE

Just went back to my old save file in The Evil Within in Nightmare mode, trying to beat it but damn it’s such a pain.



Finished off Tiny Tina's Wonderlands yesterday. It was pretty good but could have been better.

-On the plus side, the gameplay is the best in the whole series to date, the new class system with create a character and cross-class builds is fantastic, a huge leap forward compared to the set characters in past Borderlands games.  My cross class pet build meshed together remarkably well and made for my most fun gameplay experience in the whole series to date. 

-On the downside however, the biggest issue is definitely the scarcity of Borderlands characters. Unlike the Borderlands 2 DLC it is based on, which was loaded with Borderlands characters, Wonderlands has just 5 Borderlands characters that show up, Tina herself, Brick, Torgue, Claptrap, and Buttstallion. Of those, Tina herself is the only one to make a truly lengthy appearance, Claptrap gets 2 questlines in 2 different zones out of 10+ zones, while Torgue and Brick appear for an even shorter amount of time than Claptrap. Instead we get lots of new characters, most of which are just not as entertaining as the Borderlands NPC's are. Humor in general feels the weakest it has ever felt in the series, with very few jokes sticking the landing for my humor tastes. The more serious bits of the storyline are well written though, once again dealing with Gamemaster Tina's emotional state. 

Overall I'd say it's a solid 8.5/10 game, but considering the DLC it is based on is one of the top 5 best DLC expansions in the history of gaming, an 8.5/10 experience is definitely a bit of a letdown. Hopefully they learned their lesson and put more Borderlands characters into Wonderlands 2 and have them appear for longer stretches, and get better jokes.



This is our week! Either an announcement of the event or the event.



Haven't watched it yet but 1883 is very good (a spinoff from Yellowstone but I have no intention of watching that one). 1923 is also another spinoff from Yellowstone, it's just a bunch of cowboy shows, like Red Dead Redemption for TV, Lol. They're all created by Taylor Sheridan who also created other highly rated Paramount shows like Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown.

He seems to be focused entirely on Paramount, I'd love if we could get a Halo spinoff show out of him, a Space Western would be really cool in the Halo universe and tell a more unique story which won't have many complaining about it following canon if it's set on a entirely new planet with a new character. Since the show is doing very very good, hopefully Paramount can get some of their better creators on it.
