RipTen: Happy 4th of July gamers, as the great US of A declared its Independence a scant 235 years ago! Unfortunately, the two punch combo of a holiday and the slow summer release schedule means only literally a handful of new releases.
Because blowing up UFO's never gets old.
Satisfying visual feedback, so many games have lost this principle and it's sad. Almost everything you do has an interesting and Satisfying reaction, making everything physics based is the key to that, watching everything fly, crumble, and react to your weapons, and slowly increasing you weapons capabilities to do so to an absurd degree, just keeps ramping up the satisfaction of how good it feels to play this game.

Sure you have all those exciting new releases as well, but more importantly, if you’re one of the millions of subscribers to Xbox Live Gold, you’ll be rubbing your hands together with the imminent arrival of fresh new titles at no extra cost. With May now upon us, that time is now, so without further ado, let’s take a look at this month’s Xbox Games With Gold freebies to see if the wait has been worthwhile!"
Stop calling them "free" games. You are paying to access them.
Also, no, that's the crappiest lineup I've seen in a while.
Major Nelson: For the month of May, Xbox Live Gold members will receive four new free games - two on Xbox One and two on Xbox 360 - as part of the Games with Gold program.
This week sucks. Bring me November already.
EDF is supposed to be decent, yeah?
Slow week, I guess Earth Defense is the highlight.
Only thing I'm going to buy for the rest of the summer is the Splinter Cell HD collection on the PS3. It comes out in mid July.
Not much this week
