Microsoft has announced that several games are leaving Xbox Game Pass for console and PC. Among them are Mortal Kombat X and Football Manager 2020.
Lives are strange (even stranger in video games). Have you ever jumped into a game because you wanted to be someone else? Like a high school student with superpowers that can stop time, a sneaky invisible robot in space, or perhaps you just want to be a farmer riding his tractor all day. Maybe even be the tractor! Okay, you can’t be the tractor. But you can be so many other people thanks to January’s Xbox Game Pass titles!
Absolver and Aftercharge look really interesting. And of course Farming Simulator, can't wait to fire that up on my Xbox X and 4k TV!
I just subscribe when a major exclusive comes out, finish it within the month and then unsubscribe until the next one comes and try and play whatever else whilst I'm still subscribed. It's really flexible that way.
I'm.currently playing RDR2 so I'm unsubscribed ATM.
I can't believe a game like Farming Simulator 17 had better first week sales than the likes of Gears of War 4 and Titanfall 2.
It may not have a lot of direct competitors this holiday season but still...
Got the need, the need to weed
I see a trend, zombie games and farming games always seem to sell well. Killing zombies and farming are 2 essential skills to have if there is ever a real zombie apocolypse. People are just being smart and preparing for the future.
I see alot of people plan on potentially owning a farm.
