Everyone was asking for a StarCraft remaster and now, Blizzard listened and they delivered. We have been given lots of remakes and remasters this year such as Patapon Remastered, Voodoo Vince Remastered, WipEout Omega Collection, Crash Bandicoot, and there are still more mention.
2017 is the year for remasters and remakes and that does not leave Blizzard’s critically acclaimed StarCraft and its expansion – StarCraft: Brood War – from the mix.
The battle among three races continues: Terran, Zerg, and the Protoss – in high-definition!
This week, Blizzard Entertainment dropped both 'StarCraft: Remastered' and 'StarCraft II Campaign Collection' into PC Game Pass.
Hopefully these get released on Switch and Playstation, along with Age of Empires. There’s a severe lack of good RTS games on both those platforms.
Happy spooky season to those who celebrate! We have a collection of scary games for you to enjoy with Game Pass, while hiding under the blankets (or maybe that’s just how I play). And if you want to do something slightly less scary, we have a whole list of games for you to start pre-installing including more day one additions like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and more! Let’s get to the games.

Let the COD on GamePass experiment begin!
I would think their quarterly revenue will take a hit compared to a year ago, but will maybe make up for it throughout the year as the monthly GP subs keep coming in
Was up with call of duty man?
I downloaded cod on gamepass and for some reason I cannot access the game.
just curious what version? There are some that you can pre-load, but they wont work until their release date later this month.
I have to redownload it again for the 3rd time to check.
I ended up just deleting it to make room for other games after the second time.
It was on Xbox game pass, I didn’t know there was other versions. I just downloaded everything, but sadly I couldn’t even access the game. Maybe 3rd time the charm. I’ll download it again.
On xbox there is the last gen/current gen versions pc though you could also get a xbox version.
When that new forza first came out for one day they had the xbox version on the pc store i was like ? what it was odd.
On xbox you can easily download the one version of a game instead of the series version so you run into issues on your series console.
Because a game won’t run after I download it??
Man your kids must hate your @ss if that’s how you think.
It's going to be very interesting to follow up on how the new entry of CoD will perform at the box office, player numbers and distribution of Xbox, PC and PS versions this year.
I got excited thinking they ported StarCraft to consoles but it's just the PC version. Also, I thought Starcraft 2 was already free to play.
If you subscribe to Amazon Prime, here is Prime Gaming's batch of free games and in-game content for the month of August.
Was playing it this morning and i'm split. On one hand the graphics overhaul is really nice, but there are no ease of use gameplay improvements. When they upgraded Warcraft2 to the bnet edition, they added a lot of improvements from SC to bring the game up to par. This remaster is solely graphics. So things like barracks u cant right click to rally, you have to "R" or click the rally button. Or group select is still only 12 units, so large attacks u might have 5 (or more T_T) groups to cycle through giving attack ground commands. I know they probably wanted to keep it pure for the pro scene, but a toggle option would have been nice, as most of us aren't and will never be competitive sc players and those updated features would have been great.
