Yeah my One is basically a Game Pass machine for my kids (like the Series S will be) and there's some good stuff on there but some more variety would be good.

I just realized that this is one of the benefits of adding EA to GamePass. They've got Peggle and Plants vs Zombies and whatnot in there.

There are a few standout quotes from the article, such as Microsoft is looking toward more "E-rated content" in the future:

Good, that's always been a sore spot for non-Nintendo platforms. Sony has more titles that fit this profile but not by much. They should also make their "big" shows that aren't for a specific M-rated product more kid-friendly to watch (they can still have M-rated games featured in them, just cut a green band trailer for them).

There's a few good kid safe games from the 360 days that are playable through BC like the aforementioned Peggle and plants vs zombies, kingdom for Kelflings, various flavours of PacMan (my daughter got very into CE DX for a while) and other stuff I don't remember right now. I always have a much easier time finding something to play with them on the Xbox than the PS4 thanks to that stuff.

One bullet. One gun. Six Chambers. These are my friends.
In that new dashboard video they show the Games screen and there's a submenu called Full Library. Hopefully that will actually show your entire purchase history. Not too long ago I hooked up a 360 and it was bizarre realizing there was no such list, so I had to manually sift through the entire store to see if I already bought certain games or weird standalone items like Dead Rising 2 Case Zero.

It does! That update hit a few months ago on Xbox One (I think. I'm in the dashboard testing program.). It has separate lists for all games, purchased games, Game Pass games, Games with Gold, and EA Play games. It was great to see those lists, but it was not pleasant seeing how many games I have purchased.

Having been on the PS4 after the xbox 360, I can't wait to play the Fable games again. At least the first 2. I'm very curious about how the upcoming one will be like.

Oh, and also other games, I guess.

In 2, every combat is trivialized by spamming aoe moves and the story stops dead in its tracks for a prison sequence that is so boring and long i felt like i was in the prison.

This may sound like sarcasm but I'm genuinely pretty in awe of the breadth of your gaming experiences and memory. Like you always seem to have a specific criticism or point of praise of virtually every game. It's impressive.

I can barely remember poo poo about the games I played back in that era.

its all stuff that is kinda cool artistically at world building but also just slows down the gameplay to essentially a walking simulator because everything from reloading to changing weapons to opening doors takes a 5 second animation of ~gross noises~

visually its kind of impressive but i didnt see anything that makes me think i would enjoy playing the game.

they are management puzzle games. you have to watch cctv cameras and juggle lights/doors etc to survive the night without letting any of the monsters get close to the control room. later games add in weirder other poo poo and mini games.
they are like jumpscares + spinning plates and very last decade youtube algorithm fodder

It’s my most played game on Switch of the last however many (5?) months. ‘Twas one of my absolute favorite games on N64. I wish Disney would commission a properly modern sequel/reboot tbh. Easily on par with Rogue Squadron.
