Speaking of, I wonder when/if we will ever get a Sea of Thieves 2, after Overwatch's mess they may just do a massive overhaul to the base game and move it to Unreal Engine 5 which is honestly what "Overwatch 2" should have been, but I'm not sure about keeping Xbox One support. Sea of Thieves 2 could be huge if done right though.

Move it to Unreal Engine 5, double the size, double the amount of boats, triple the server load, Lol.

@Ryuu96 in case you get done with Oblivion at some point this century, got this game releasing in 2 days that is so Oblivion-inspired that the digital deluxe version also comes with horse armor

How close is it to number one?

162,832

It's also the only thread with 4000 recent views. Or 3000 recent views. Or 2000 recent views. The next highest is at 1000 recent views as far as I can see. Though I'm not sure exactly how the recent views stuff works, Lol.

But clearly still the most popular thread on VGChartz by some distance, I just wish it had more activity to match the lurkers

139,335 now

The other one hasn't had a recent post in over 5 years, but is still gaining views. Over 300 recent. 

Closed in 23,397 views in 5 days.  17 days until June Showcase. Averaged out at 4700 new views a day.  80,000 more to be added at least, by the showcase.

60,000 plus the additional views the other thread will get (~5100) is a ~65,000 deficit that needs to be made up.  This thread would need an additional 3824 views a day added on top of the 4700 daily view average (8524 daily view average from here on out).

Sorry, but it is not going to happen.

...to avoid getting banned for inactivity, I may have to resort to comments that are of a lower overall quality and or beneath my moral standards.

I think these titles are too new to go under "Xbox Classics" considering the launch titles are RETRO retro but still would be incredible to have!

Well mentioned it a couple of times that they should add old(er) games, only negative thing is you can't buy them + cloud only... Mechwarrior the PSx version is a pain to play with this.

It's not cloud only. It's an app that you install locally, and everything is handled in the app. That's why they say Game Pass users rather than Game Pass Ultimate users. It's included in all tiers including Core. Pretty much how Nintendo currently handles their classic games on Switch.

Haven't tried Mechwarrior yet. I didn't even know there was a PSX version lol I only ever knew it as a PC franchise till the most recent release a couple years ago. But unfortunately that is the thing with retro games. Controls have not aged well at all lol. I've only played Pitfall so far and it's definitely frustrating.

Activision put out Pitfall. They peaked and went downhill ever since.



Bite my shiny metal cockpit!

I ripped and tore until it was done. Finished Doom TDA. Great game. Makes up for the letdown of Eternal. 2016 is still my fave.

Well I played before the comment and the game(s) have some lag or feel like they have lag and it always takes a few seconds before you start a game it feels like it is streaming (doesn't help the app + games is relatively small giving the impression of being could based).

Antstream Arcade has a promotion going on 9 Euro/Bucks or whatever for a year on xbox.  

List of games is long: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antstream
