NGamer via CVG writes: "Paint is reborn. Paint is now fun. It's all thanks to de Blob, who's basically a fat sponge. Fun-haters called the INKT Corporation have sucked all life from the world, presumably because they think it makes them big in front of the girls or something, and so everything is now grey and silent and has as much personality as an empty packet of biscuits. Enter fat sponge, stage left. He can absorb paint from the little robots that the baddies have conveniently left tottering around, and then splatter it onto almost anything in the environments, instantly transforming them from dull to da bomb.
The whole game is built around this core mechanism, which, depending on your point of view, makes it either the best coloring book in the world or a multicolored one-trick pony. Unless you're an enemy of fun it's the first option. Everywhere you squelch, color comes back. As you paint a row of buildings, the unearthly silence begins to fill with a little bit of noise. As you do more and more, and begin mixing up the colors and applying different styles, the soundtrack blossoms into life. Each big dash of color brings a different instrument to the fore, each splash a treat for the ears as well as the eyes."
THQ Nordic 10th anniversary sale includes big discounts on Darksiders, de Blob, SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom, and more.
Hi, Xbox Game Pass friends! It’s time for another drop of games coming your way. In case you hadn’t already cried when you realized that your backlog of video games has grown that much larger, my apologies. And if you’re going to cry on the controller, make it player 2’s controller please. We’re taking you deep this time around. Deeep in the shadows, deeeep in the tombs, deeeeep into zombie territory, deeeeeep into the streets, deeeeeeep into Arkham, deeeeeeeep into the deeeeeeeepness. And PS, Crackdown 3 drops in mere days. Days!
Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Batman Return to Arkham! Xbox Gamepass coming through once Again!!
And we're getting Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Batman return to Arkham, Crackdown 3, Blob 2 and more for 10 dollars...whats your point
And for $10 people can purchase Gamepass for one month and have access to 100+ games on top of SOTTR.
SOTTR Is a game that you can just beat and then move on anyway.
Wow can't believe Shadow of The Tomb Raider and Crackdown 3 this month. I only just bought an Xbox One X a month ago and have only played Forza Horizon 4 and Quantum Break...
Is it only me who drives around in Forza just looking at the scenary and looking in shop Windows? The attention to detail is insane....
Says the guy who said "I for one was going to hold off buying an Xbox One X, but after the recent news about playing Xbox 360 games and Original Xbox games at 4k I have changed my mind, I will be buying one day one.
I missed out on this gen my last console was an Xbox 360."
That is true, due to personal circumstances I had to hold off buying one but I eventually got a gold rush edition of the Xbox One X early this January.. Hope this is OK with you...
I’m the kind of gamer that stops in uncharted and god of war just to admire graphics. I never thought I’d be doing that in a race game as well. Forza on the x is simply amazing looking. Heck I stop mid race to look at my car and the lighting and environment like trees in fall or stone bed rivers in spring and just say I gotta stop and look I’ll restart the race!
Yes I'm constantly stopping and changing camera positions to look out the side of car etc
Looking through shop and house windows like a peeping Tom.
The scenary is so varied. Just bought Fortune Island today and don't mind one bit as its certainly worth it..
Yes see how good the environments /open world are in Forza has me really excited for their rumoured open world rpg. Can’t wait to see what they do...
This is the only one I haven't played, was waiting for a big sale, this makes it so much more convenient. I say this a lot, the value of gamepass is just incredible.

Providing tons of games at low low prices, it was a great way to stock up on digital titles for those rainy days. Now though the Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale is back again and this time round a new set of Xbox titles are smacked with the discount stick, all alongside some Bandai Namco bargains. What are they? Well, this little lot should see you right."
For those saying there's nothing on the Wii does this count?
... game rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm going to buy this in a couple of days!
It was a hard choice between Wario Land: Shake! or de Blob, I'm gonna buy de Blob first because it has multi-player. Hehe!
