Mythor writes for Player Attack: Sacred Citadel is a side-scrolling beat 'em up at its core, with some gooey RPG caramel slathered over the top to produce a delicious, bite-sized treat. Though you'll not want seconds.
Neil writes "As Xbox gamers we've had a huge number of discounts thrust our way with the recent Xbox Live Deals With Gold offerings. This week though? Well, it's a little sparse to say the least. But which are the best and worst of the deals on offer between the 20th-26th Sept 2016? We delve in and take a look."
Neil writes "The Xbox Games With Gold scheme very rarely fails to deliver. Since it’s inception, there have been a ton of games given away on both Xbox One and Xbox 360. With the latest Xbox 360 titles now becoming backwards compatible on the bigger more powerful console, the program has seemingly moved up another gear. But ultimately, Games With Gold will be judged on the quality of the free titles being given away. With that in mind, is February 2016 any good?"
Games are free.... Free games..... Getting it? Sure they will not appeal to everyone, everytime.... Buuut, free games....
Insult me all you want, but if your a member, its free.... Before you got nothing.....
Not every month can be a winner. It's not a bad offering, just not as good as the last two months. I'm fine with that.
I agree with septic, though styx is descent. But I bought it in an XBL sale for 8 bucks ages ago. Not really into the card game, so its a "meh" from me too. They could have given away shovel knight or nero or something instead. And I already got gears 2 on BC.
It's kind of a weird game to offer. Anyone who owned a 360 and was remotely interested in shooters has probably already played it to death.
It 's nice to add it to my digital collection though. Now, i've got all the Gears games digitally.
I already have Gears 2 several times over as a Gear head, but this should revive the game a little.
Holy shit that game is terrible isn't it? Stayed on my ps4 for about three agonizing levels/missions. It should come with a warning and disclaimer.
Yah, I tried to get into it. Was hoping it'd get better after the first level or 2, but it was meh.
Today Microsoft announced the Games with Gold line-up for February 2016, by way of Xbox Live Director of Programming Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb.
played Styx when it was free on ps+, its an ok stealth game, not really my kind of games but its still decent.
Cannot expect blockbusters everytime, plus some games I do not have some of these, so happy regardless...
Hands of Fate is better than average. There is gun to be had. But as you get deeper into the levels it can get fusrating.
Sacred 2 was a good game, but I haven't played Citadel, so I can't recommend it. Gears 2 had one of the best Gears campaigns. If you haven't played it you should. The online co-op is fun as well.
That stealth game demo was too dull for me, but some may still have fun with it.
I'll give hand of fate a go. It's poor month, in my opinion - unless you haven't played Gears of War 2.
Hand of fate
Styx
Gears of War 2
Sacred Citidal
Plus add Witcher 2
You guys are complaining damn. I see nothing but great solid fun games. I guess you can't make everyone happy.
It's not a great month, but considering I have a ginormous backlog I am totally okay with that.
same. ive still got witcher 3 dlc. tomb raider dlc, alien isolation and only stratched the surface on cod zombies and forza 6 and ive gotta do all this whilst still getting my halo 5 and killer instinct fix. just isn't enough time lol
I was hoping for rocket league to be free as its suppose to release this month, oh well, I'm still working through a backlog on my Xbox and ps4 so it's ok for both to be lacking this month
That wasn't going to happen considering its success on PS4 and PC.
PS+ isn't lacking, in my opinion. Helldivers is fantastic.
Rocket league should have been absolutely free, the whole reason that its so successful other than the fact that it's a great game is word of mouth, I have a bunch of friends that would have never even touched the game at normal price but gave it a shot because it was free on ps plus.
On top of that the playstation players get to play the game with pc players so the player base is substantially greater. This should have been offered with gold so that the xbl community for this game would be big
Not up to the standard I've come to expect from GWG but I'll give hand of fate a go and will probably skip the others as I've already beaten Gears 2 multiple times
I already own styx, its a fun game but i couldnt beat it since the levels were huge.
I'll give this and Hand of Fate a try. I already own Gears 2 for buying GoW: Ultimate Edition but it's a very good game for anyone that doesn't have it. This month could've been better.
They just dont make games like Styx anymore. I found it really refreshing. In another time it'd be a PS2 title selling for 5 bucks in your local game store, plastered with stickers.
Don't make games like Styx anymore? I can think of a recent game that is a lot like Styx. It's called Styx.
:)
Still waiting for Black Ops BC. Would forfeit a month of GWG for it.
