Crimson skies is one of my favorite games ever sad there's no games like it.

Looking forward to finally giving it a shot. Seems like it's a cult classic, here about it all the time.

Would love to see Xbox do something with Jordan Weisman again.

Crimson Skies not getting a 360 follow up was one of the greatest crimes of that gen.

 

[Torrent of Pork]

If a new Crimson Skies title was announced during a live show I would scream like a little girl.

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

GP is getting too much, so many titles to play...

Got 3 buddies lined up for The Ascent now (hooked another on on GP), looks guuuuud. Also I wanna fly over my house. Crimson Skies is a blast from the past.

I've honestly missed it off and on through the years since playing it on the OG. It just was never really available to me as I never bought another Xbox.

Six games this month I'm interested in, this is my winter holiday haul in summer.

How is blinx? I heard he was going to be the mascot for Xbox. But people forgot about him.

It was an OK platformer (I remember giving it a 6/10 at the time) with some nice graphics and mechanics, like manipulating time. But it was also very frustrating and had very dull enemies. That was then. I have no idea how it feels today. I'll give it another go.

Things are looking really nice on PC. I almost bought Hades on steam a few months ago..

 

[Corgi1985]

You could also spend $20 for switch online and get actual garbage this month

 

[MrFunSocks]

If The Ascent reviews well, I may try it. Otherwise, nothing for me this month.

Why wouldn't you just try it anyway? That's kinda the whole point of game pass.

Ill download Flight Sim and see how it compares to on PC, but I'm waiting for the DX12 patch to re-download it on my new PC.

Crazy month for GP, can't wait for 12 Minutes too

 

[eyesabitdull]

My 1660ti would die running The Ascent.

Unfortunately I'm not convinced on an XSEX (or PS5) until next year, so I guess I'll watch from afar and wait till the day comes where I can play it properly.

:sadface:

Oh is that out next month?

I'm actually super intrigued by that game and definitely want a day 1 for that.

Thanks for the heads up if so!

 

[Chukhopops]

That's almost too much. Also I'm happy to see indie games coming back to GP, tried the demo of Cris Tales last year and it looked good.

August 19th yeah, day 1 GP release. I'm very curious about it.

 

[DarkMage619]

Hope to see all you guys in the sky in FS, might not be an actual game but it can be fun

Screw that noise. It's as much of a game as anything else. Just because it isn't keeping score or you can't level up doesn't make it any less of a game. It's awesome that there is no experience like it anywhere else.

It's a simulator, a genre that has so many ips that it is pointless to say "might not be an actual game"

Yeah, been waiting for 12 Minutes since they showed it last year.

Bummed that apparently no physical version is planned to be released

Flight Simulator's making my 3080 bleed. Have to wonder how the Xbox's will cope.

Settings you using?

 

[Negotiator101]

Fantastic games coming from now until the end of the year on Gamepass, well worth £10.99 a month IMO.

Just fine, Asobo have improved the performance of the game I believe.

I feel compelled to finish every game I start, otherwise I feel I've just wasted my time. I can't explain it, just a personality quirk.

Right now, my time is more valuable to me than the cost of games. Plus, I play enough games, I'm pretty good at being able to tell if I'll like a game or not just by reading a few reviews (reading, not just looking at scores).

 

[chixdiggit]

Ascent looks pretty good.
Crimson Skies was an amazing game back in the day. Interested how it holds up today.

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

It's damned near criminal that they release Crimson Skies without functional online MP.
