Each year the ESA partners with one gaming platform to create a three game bundle which is specially packaged with information about the ESA and it's charities. The bundle is then sold at retail with proceeds going to the charities chosen.
This year, the ESA has chosen Microsoft as a partner with the 3 game bundle including Fuzion Frenzy 2, Open Season, and Cars.

My son and I loved these films, and as you can imagine, the money making machine of the games industry wasn't slow to catch on to the possibilities of a Cars-based video game (or two or three or... ). So, come with me to a world that was dominated by the animated hi-jinks and the racing based fun times of Cars."
Neil writes: "Thankfully the Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale regularly comes along to allow that opportunity, with a huge variety of Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles discounted down to bargain basement levels. The latest sale is now with us, so what cut-price bargains are Xbox gamers being treated to thanks to the Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 26th Feb - 3rd Mar 2019? Well, we've got the full list - and thanks to the Ubisoft sale that has been integrated in, it's a long one."
Provided that everything we learned at E3 2018 about Microsoft's intentions to invest huge on new ideas and bringing the Xbox brand back to a creative standpoint, there are some very well loved franchises that they have in their stable which have been under-utilized. These games not only tested out new gameplay concepts and provided fun gameplay for many players, they helped give an identity to Xbox which made it stand apart from other systems at the time - something they struggle with today.
Kind of a pathetic list tbh....no Alan wake, Lost Odyssey, Banjo, prefect dark and many more games.
Some games mentioned have been brought back via backwards compatible and I don't consider them really dormant. They for sure could use a remake or be brought back with a new title. Brute Force is I think one of my hope for list that would stand the best by a good engine and a new team behind it.
A new Brute Force would look amazing with next gen graphics
Lost Odyssey
Fable 4 (rumored)
Fund a next gen Alan Wake
Perfect Dark (3rd person)
Cuphead 2 (released this gen I know)
Banjo Kazooie remake.
Advent Rising remake. That's my wish list
Been playing Panzer Dragoon Orta on my Xbox X. This game still looks and plays amazing, would love to see Sega bring this franchise back.
children in need, will have a nice holiday.
People who may not be able to afford games, now can for the holidays and charities will get a much needed boost. Always good to see people who need help, get it.
