Baden of WGB: "Ah, Daedalic, you seem determined to single-handedly maintain the point and click genre, and have helped in something of a resurgence for the all but once abandoned escapades and crazy worlds, keeping them alive and encouraging a new generation to enjoy the crazy worlds and often even crazier logic that they entail. The original Book of Unwritten Tales by King Art Games didn’t exactly rewrite the rulebook when it came to point and click games, but nevertheless it was a lot of fun. So how does the sequel stack up?"
From Xbox: "September’s Games with Gold is here! On Xbox One, protect New York City in the online tactical shooter Tom Clancy’s The Division, and take part in the engaging point-and-click adventure The Book of Unwritten Rules 2. On the Xbox 360, and Xbox One via Backward Compatibility, make the world a more colorful place in de Blob 2 and get ready for tongue-in-cheek humor and violence in the third-person shooter, Armed and Dangerous."
Amazing lineup . Thanks to think I’ll not need to buy games for the next 6 months :)
Armed and dangerous is actually a really good game, The division gets boring fast, never played the other 2
Then they talk about MS being "pro-consumer" not only are they are basically charging you for Xbox Live only to play online, because there is no value on the games they give you anymore. But even worse, they are "steering" customers towards Game Pass which in some business sectors is actually an illegal practice or at least an unethical one.
Who pays for love or plus just for the games? If u don’t play mp games just buy the service one month at a time to snag the games u want. Let’s not pretend plus is better because it’s not. With gamepass ultimate u get live and gamepass making it a far better deal. Also games with gold u get double the games and the 360 games are urs to keep. So I think getting more bang for your buck is very pro consumer.
@RpgSama
Sony and Microsoft don't need to give you anything, be happy your getting something.
May be a bad month in your opinion, but they have to cater for all markets, some months will be good others bad.
And gamepass now includes xbox live gold (ultimate), so it actually works out cheaper to get gamepass ultimate as opposed to getting both.
And you say "But even worse, they are "steering" customers towards Game Pass which in some business sectors is actually an illegal practice or at least an unethical one."
No one forces you to pay anything.
Well this sucks again. Wish Microsoft would give of more high quality games like ps plus does every month
@Djstotty
you never got to keep the Xbox One games with GWG. And you used to be able to keep the 360 ones.
@Shaggy2304
As long as you are an active Gold subber, you get to keep the xbox one games, 360 playable offline. So :-
Gold sub = Xbox One games playable for the duration of the sub (do not know anyone who unsubs)
360 games yours to keep.
"Your Xbox Live Gold membership gets you free Games with Gold every month: two on Xbox One and two on Xbox 360.
Go to the Gold members' area on your console to download your games. Games show up on the 1st and 16th of every month.
Or, go to Games with Gold on Xbox.com to queue your games up for download to your console.
You'll need an Xbox Live Gold membership to claim your games. Xbox One games are yours to play as long as you have an active Gold membership, and Xbox 360 games are yours to keep."

Is that better?
Come on guys, when are you going to realize not every month is going to give you great stuff.
I say the same thing with PS Plus. Some months are going to be great, some aren't. You have to realize these services have to cater to everyone, so there will always be someone that likes that sport game or movie tie-in game that majority of us (myself included) hate.
I'd fully accept that but its obvious Games With Gold has been consistently terrible because all focus is on GamePass. There's absolutely no denying it!
Dude I love my Xbox, but its been a long ass time since we got some really good games with live
Some people would be happy with just "good" they don't even have to be really good, but they just give trash since at least a year.
Almost Every month of ps plus gives me something to try that's new and interes me
...not the case with Xbox.
Slow news week for PS5 probably, commentors start beating old drums when they have no news on their platform.
@DJStotty
Sony doesn't focus on PS Now More than PS Plus. I don't know where you got that idea. Look at the games Plus has given compared to GWG and that should tell you all you need to know.
Look, you can defend xbox all you want. But let's be reasonable and factual please.
yah basically nothing again, division 1 is like 99cents and they sold division 2 for 3$ a couple months ago... the rest are really bad.
Neil writes: "For the last week or so Xbox One and Xbox 360 gamers have been treated to all manner of discount. See, not content with just dropping the usual bargains found in the Xbox Live Deals With Gold Sale, the Xbox Spring Sale 2019 has also been in place. With that taking on the vast majority of the deals available across the Xbox world, it could well mean that the standard Deals With Gold sale is pushed to one side. But to do that would be wrong, because it would mean missing out on a ton of great discounts, all of which are now available in the latest Xbox Deals With Gold sale for 16th-22nd April 2019."
Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is a nice throwback to the early PC adventure games from LucasArts or Sierra. The gme has some fun with humor and some light puzzles. The big question is does it stand out enough in the crowded Switch’s library?
