Daily Video Game writes: "Xbox Store is running three new digital game sales that have plenty of AAA and fighting games, as well as indie titles for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox one gamers right now for up to 80% off!"
A Plague Tale: Innocence's version of the real-life medieval pandemic is still one of the most intense and perhaps resonant ever seen in gaming.
Amazing game from top to bottom. The characters, story, rats, atmosphere, just so many things in this game they nailed.
MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.
MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.
That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.
I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
Asobo Studio's A Plague Tale: Innocence is today's free game on the Epic Games Store, so you have 24 hours to grab it before it's replaced.
Grabbed Darkestville Castle, Get-A-Grip, Moon Hunters and Phoenotopia.
Nice little indie hall.
I also really recommend Fight Night Champion for those without Gamepass. $5 for the best boxing game on the market.
