Well I'm disappointed. I would have preferred any of these.

I would like to try these out.

 

[John Caboose]

Expecting Sniper, Wolfy or M:SS doesn't seem very realistic.

I never used "expect". Explained it two posts before yours.

 

[Castef]

Was hoping for Ryse but I guess that won't happen any time soon.

I suspect it is still selling a bit.

 

[Genio88]

Not really my kind of games, but i'll give a try to them both, of course i would have prefered to play again Ryse or Forza 5 instead

 

[oneida]

when do the damn deals update goddamnit

edit lol nvm they are all bad.

 

[backflip10019]

Excited to finally try out Crimson Dragon. And I haven't played Dishonored before, so that'll be a nice treat, too. Not a bad month.

Sweet. They are up a day early.

 

[shandy706]

Awesome, downloading Crimson Dragon.

Welp, looks like I'll be doing a lot of direct feed screens for Strike Suit Zero.

I had no idea SSZ was a freedom of movement space shooter. For some reason I thought it was something like Star Fox.

 

[FinFan]

Bing from the dashboard brings them up free as well, downloading both.

 

[condompickle]

Looks like I'll play some games tonight. Still waiting for loco cycle to be free. I have a gut feeling I'm gonna love that game.

 

[Bsigg12]

Awesome. I like that they sometimes update these things a day early.

Is the first 360 game up?

 

[Kajiba]

Definitely going to play SSZ.

 

[Orca]

Didn't think much of Crimson Dragon until I leveled up the dragon a bit and got new skills. There's a lot of depth there, especially when you get into the new dragons and all that.

 

[arhra]

Doesn't look like it, still showing as £6.75 for me.

 

[JaggedSac]

Awesome. I like that they sometimes update these things a day early.

Maybe they are doing it by GMT?

 

[Timu]

Installing Strike Suit Zero now.

 

[BeforeU]

looks like Strike Suit Zero has easy achievement points. Will try it out lol

 

[def sim]

ah games i don't have

im down to check these out

 

[Timu]

About to start it now.=p

 

[blakep267]

Strike suit zero isn't very good

 

[sangreal]

Strike suit zero isn't very good

At least you didn't make the mistake of paying for it like me

I second this. I could have bought Child of Light, but spent my money on Strike Suit. Never again.

Crimson dragon is actually pretty good. That Metacritic score is BS.

It's funny. When I got my ms dollars I had that same choice. I chose child of light

Nah Crimson Dragon at launch was trash. It's better now but review scores mainly reflect game at launch.

 

[malfcn]

They both look like last gen XBLA games to me.
They are downloaded and pinned for attention when I have free time.

 

[elementalsin]

SSZ sound messed up for anyone else? uncompressed 5.1 and bitstream out both give this really weird setup where it thinks the left channel is center and all other sound is extremely low out of seemingly random speakers? Tried a couple other games and had just finished watching a movie where sound was fine. I've had something similar happen before but I don't remember with what game or how I fixed it.

 

[nateeasy]

I didnt even make it to the first enemy in Strike Suit before I turned it off.

 

[Alx]

Nah Crimson Dragon at launch was trash. It's better now but review scores mainly reflect game at launch.

The game was first patched before launch, the game as it is isn't that much different from what it was day one, the only thing they added later was live multiplayer.

It wasn't trash, it just was far from great, it's pretty much a 6/10 game.

Best addition by far IMO.

 

[KAOS]

Hurray more Dragon Riders! Best Dragons in Crimson are Snow Wing Greed and Silvertail Tempest!

I pretty much beat the whole game with this dragon, lol:

Son of a bitch, Dishonored was on sale for $5 last month.
Now they decide to give it away free :/

 

[Caayn]

At least you didn't make the mistake of paying for it like me

I don't really regret paying for it, I supported the dev with it and I wouldn't mind seeing an improved sequel being made. I'm just a bit disappointed that it didn't came close to what I was expecting from it. Maybe I need to lower my standards for these kind of games

 

[Remark]

Motocross Madness is free now.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Motocross Madness is free now.

And turrible

 

[Remark]

And turrible

like your turrible opinion

game was fun af.

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

Well I uninstalled Strike Suit right after finishing the mind numbing tutorial level. Hoping for a better time with Crimson dragon.

 

[RPS37]

Not digging Crimson a Dragon or Strike Suit Zero.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Crimson Dragon is no Panzer Dragoon, that's for sure. Wasn't too impressed with it last night.

I'll have to try Strike Suit Zero.

 

[zedge]

Not digging Crimson a Dragon or Strike Suit Zero.

They are both pretty terrible. Will likely delete them soon, not worth the hard drive space.

 

[Twin Tails]

Strike Suit Zero is HOT Garbage, also It may be bad but im totally enjoying Crimson Dragon.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Not digging Crimson a Dragon or Strike Suit Zero.

Same, pretty meh. Glad I didn't buy them.

 

[catmincer]

Crimson Dragon is fun. Strike suit zero I deleted before finishing the tutorial.

Nobody has made a decent space shooter since Colony Wars dammit.

 

[purg3]

Tired Crimson Dragon for a little bit today and enjoyed it, so I'll definitely finish that one. Haven't tried SSZ, but damn at these impressions lol.

 

[statham]

diggin Crimson Dragon , the other game not so much.

 

[Alx]

I managed to get past SSZ tutorial and it gets better once you get the mech transformation and master the aiming mechanics.
It seems it has potential, but the game is really bad at showing it in the first minutes. Those were boooooring.
