Topic: Official Push Square Xbox Thread

@colonelkilgore You're not funny. I repeat: any more of this as and you will be subject to further moderation.

@EclipseZero you’re probably right… almost definitely right… yup, I think you’re right basically 🤔…

@Keith_Zissou ‘… for me, it was Tuesday’ - M Bison 😌

@Iver Serves me right, I will revert to posting utter nonsense fron now on!

@JohnnyShoulder Wait, you don't already? Sorry, too easy...

I'm also considering throwing Game Pass into my posts randomly for the time being. There's, there's my random comment.

@KilloWertz Pretty much 60% of the time all of the time,

@JohnnyShoulder Sounds reasonable I guess. I strive for 40% Game Pass or below.

Mighty Keef on ‘the deal’:

Wow, is this the Xbox Thread or the Xbox Worship Thread?!

I go on Pure Xbox from time to time, trust me they can say whatever the hell they want about PlayStation and PushSquare and Sony 'fanboys' in general (within reason of course) without risk of comments being removed.

Game Pass is a good deal on paper but I reckon most of the games available wouldn't be my cup of tea. It will also one day massively increase in price, perhaps yo the point where one may end up paying more than they would if they just bought the occasional new game and others when on sale.

I'm keen on finding out what Sony's plans are for their own revised subscription plans, doubt it will be exactly the same of course but if it were to add more games to the Plus Collection that would do for me.

@Col_McCafferty oh you wouldn’t be suggesting double standards would you Col… that can’t be right 🤔

@colonelkilgore I just find it all to be rather bizarre. It's become almost 'political' now, beyond even good old fashioned console wars.

Maybe it would be a good thing if Game Pass did end up on PS, I reckon quite a few would get something out of it and a lot would be like 'meh, not sure what all the fuss is about'.

The only known games they have that I'm bothered about are Starfield and TES 6 and I sincerely doubt the former will be out this year and the latter will be 2025 at the earliest. I think I'll get by with my PS5 until then.

😉
Also, yeah, some posters seem like they're working for Xbox not playing on one.

🙄

@Col_McCafferty from what I’ve learned, you’re not too far off with ‘political’ 😉

@RogerRoger Xbox is having a sale on classic Lego games on the 360 (as well as other titles) and as our resident Lego expert, I wanted to ask you if it's worth getting: Lego Indiana Jones 1 and 2 (€5 and €2.5 respectively), Lego Pirates of the Caribbean (€2.5) and Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga (€5).

I know the Skywalker Saga is coming out soon, but are the levels in that game taken straight from The Complete Saga? Or are they completely new levels? If it's the latter, wouldn't it still be worth it to play The Complete Saga?

I'm also interested in getting some other titles, such as Split/Second (€2.5) and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (€4). Any thoughts on those? If other people have played these, feel free to chime in as well!

@LtSarge The Complete Saga is probably still the best classic Lego game. The new one’s a modern open world take on the franchise. I’d say go for it but it depends if you’re going to get Skywalker Saga on release or wait.

@nessisonett I don't really find Lego games worth getting on day one, so that's going to be a no. But if Skywalker Saga is an open world game, then The Complete Saga honestly sounds more compelling to me.

@RogerRoger A quick check proves that yes, I do own Lego Pirates of the Caribbean. I remember very very little of it! But then I barely remember the Lord of the Rings one either, my younger brother played it to completion without me, despite us having played Fellowship of the Ring together 😂

@LtSarge I found Lego Pirates of the Caribbean a complete mess. The quality just want there compared to other Lego games at the time. That was a time when it seemed that they were pumping out a Lego game every six months. I even remember reading about bugs and crashes which I am not sure ever got fixed. Unless you are a hardcore Pirates of the Caribbean fan or Lego fan you should skip this one.

Lego Indiana Jones I did enjoy but I am a huge Indy fan in fact I enjoy the Indy films more then the Star Wars so yeah. That being said I found the first one really good while Lego Indiana Jones 2 felt more like a retelling of 1-3 with the 4th movie added in. It's nothing like Lego Star Wars Complete where they took Lego Star Wars 1 and 2 and added a few thing into it. Honestly I think with Lego Indiana Jones 2 they should have just added the 4th movie to the Lego Indiana Jones as DLC rather then bring out Lego Indy 2, but they wanted to bring an Indy game out to capture the hype of the 4th movie. Get Lego Indiana Jones skip Lego Indiana Jones 2.

Other Lego games to look into if you haven't are the Lego Batman games and Lego Marvel/Avengers games. I highly recommend those ones especially if you like DC/Marvel.

@RogerRoger @nessisonett @Tasuki Thanks for your help guys. Based on your comments, I think I'll be avoiding the second Indiana Jones game and Pirates of the Caribbean. I still want to play the first Indiana Jones though because I finished watching the movies a couple of months ago and would love to revisit them in Lego form. So I think I'll at least get the first game. I'll also get Star Wars The Complete Saga since it's so highly regarded.

@RogerRoger I'll be getting Split/Second as well then! Although I'm still unsure if I should get Force Unleashed II because well, I've heard that it's better than the first game and I did enjoy it quite a bit. But we'll see!

@Tasuki Oh definitely, I already have all Lego Batman games and the two Marvel Super Heroes ones. I've played through Batman 2 and Marvel Super Heroes 1, and I'm excited to play the rest of them in the foreseeable future! I've actually been contemplating on starting up the first Lego Batman on 360, so I might do that soon.
