GR: The original Xbox often gets panned by gamers for being nothing more than a Halo machine, and while there's a shred of truth to that claim, that doesn't negate the fact that Microsoft's first gaming box had a ton of great software; some multiplatform, but also a lot that couldn't be experienced anywhere else. Don't believe me? Well the staff here at GameRevolution crafted a list of the 25 best games available on the system, and I think you'll be surprised by how many awesome games there really are. So let's get right into it.
Is Capcom justified in releasing the game with 21 downloadable items?
all which you can earn IN THE GAME BY PLAYING.. sheesh.. people need to chill and stop trippin'.
capcom has done this with every resi game since 2, with devil may cry 4 and 5.
we should be complaining about the poor Performance
I'll be handing out homework In the form of research on the essence of the boiling frog syndrome because the comments already are afflicted with this.
*Performance comment Is spot on 5+ points.
Accepting that these publishers have these types of mtx In games Is tiring, "well, they've done it with their other IP" so should we accept it? Your acceptance of it happening is ruining gaming, just to make it clear.
But it's okay though, you can earn the stuff ingame. 🙃
Having not actually played the game, but only heard about what microtransactions are on offer, no. Dragon's Dogma 2 has not taken microtransactions too far. I think a game would have to go to extraordinary lengths to qualify for the statement 'taken microtransactions too far.'
I mean, I remember a rant from yonks ago (Dungeon Keeper mobile) which, just from memory, went WAY further than Dragon's Dogma 2, with literal days of waiting to mine a single block, and a huge price mark-up to advance.
So, no, Dragon's Dogma 2 hasn't gone 'too far.'
GungHo Online Entertainment will release GRANDIA HD Collection for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on March 26, the company announced. Physical edition pre-orders will open via Limited Run Games
According to fans this was a let down. If you still have a CRT play the Saturn English fan translation, its the best way to play. The developers were told in advance that the visuals looked terrible for Grandia 1 'HD' and they didn't listen. They kept the awful blur filter.
Apparently Grandia 2 'HD' is good though.
Still wish Grandia 3 was added. I'll still get it I missed out on Grandia and Grandia 2 when they came out back in the day.
Great games. I'm not sure if true, but I'm hearing people say these still have the same visual filter that people complained about on the Switch which is a pity if so.
I really hope we get a re-release of Grandia 3 someday though.
"The Bellevue-based (Washington, the US) indie games publisher tinyBuild and Torquay-based (Victoria, Australia) indie games developer Drop Bear Bytes, are today very proud and happy to announce that their post-apocalyptic turn-based RPG “Broken Roads”, is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One) on April 10th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Psychonauts is truly an amazing diamond in the dirt !
if you still haven't tried it yet do yourself a favor try it
Escape from Butcher Bay was definitely one of my favorite Xbox games and one of the few I actually held on to. Never played Rainbow Six 3.
Jade Empire is # 1 in my opinion. I would have liked to see a second game in that series.
So many games for the original Xbox - Kotor series, Jade Empire, Shenmue II, Breakdown, Morrowind, Crimson Skies, Unreal Championship, Dead or Alive, Oddworld series, Fable, Jet Set Radio Future, Escape from Butcher Bay, Blinx -
These are the reasons I backed Xbox as long as I have, only as of the last couple years being more or less done with it.
It really is a shame that what the original Xbox was is so far from where the brand is nowadays.
Psychonauts really needs to dress itself up in HD, climb on a disc next to Grim Fandango and get in my console.
