Right on man.. curious about that figure for sure. As much as I love digital games I LOVE a shelf of games so when they do have versions that I can buy I jump on them.
Released today,
Little Nightmares - 20$, 108MB.
Lost Grimoires: Stolen Kingdom - 9$ (will rise to 10$), 675MB.
(Trial available. No time limit, unlocks achievements.)
New Pre-Order,
Elliot Quest - 15$
New Artifex Mundi game: right in my veins.
Little Nightmares: will get when it's on sale.
I got the 1000/1000 in Lost Grimoires: Stolen Kingdom. I'll give it a 3/5. Still a good game for people that love these Hidden Object puzzle games. But this is definitely the weakest game they've put out so far. One thing I really didn't like was the sound - especially the sound effect when selecting an object (to zoom in) and deselecting an object (to zoom back out).
I'd say the following are solid 4/5 titles:
Nightmares from the Deep: The Cursed Heart
Nightmares from the Deep 2: The Siren's Call
Clockwork Tales: Of Glass and Ink
Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek
Enigmatis 2: The Mists of Ravenwood
Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride
Eventide: Slavic Fable
The 2nd most recent title was a 3.5/5:
Dark Arcana: The Carnival
And the most recent in my opinion is a 3/5:
Lost Grimoires: Stolen Kingdom

Ya I think I posted on here before that Dark Arcana was their weakest yet. I'll try Lost Grimoires since I need to keep the streak of 1king their collection going lol
Still need to play Enigmatis 2 also, just picked it up last sale...was only one I was missing
Just finished the 1000/1000 in Abzu. I mentioned in a previous post that I think this game is a masterpiece and I've given it a 5/5. It's a wonderful experience. A very relaxing underwater exploration game with breathtaking visuals.
One part that blew me away is this section where what seems like 10,000 fish are swimming very rapidly in a mesmerizing circle. Below is a screenshot but it doesn't do it justice. In motion this looks spectacular. And I don't know if my estimate is right either. What's the over/under here? Are there less than 10,000 fish in this circle/whirlpool? More?!?

I'm sure it runs like shit like the other neo geo games released. Pretty sad.
Im thinking about trying my first artifex mundi game, which one is the best?

Personally I think Nightmares From the Deep and Enigmatis are both good. Maybe try Nightmares from the Deep (it was also their first game they brought to XB1). If you don't like it then you won't like their other games

I second this. Enigmatis for the story and very well tied puzzles and Nightmares for the settings (can´t beat ghost pirates!).
Finished my first playthrough of Late Shift. It's the FMV / live action game that came out recently. Woooooooooww what an awesome experience hahaha. From the same publisher as The Bunker and sooo much better. The Bunker was frankly an awful game. This one was a lot more fun, interesting, compelling. Only issue was some scenes had stuttering but damn it nails the concept of an interactive movie. Wide beautiful shots of the city at night, great music, cinematography and camera work, great dialogue, and a compelling story.

I've played all the Artifex Mundi games on the console so far, and the last two (Dark Arcana and Lost Grimoires) seem way shorter and easier than all of the previous ones. Disappointing. Hopefully there are more good ones to come.

I think I'll get on Enigmatis first, Story is king
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll post again with my thoughts Already downloaded but on vacation abroad right now, the tutorial was veeery promising though.

Tempted to get the forza horizon 3 expansion pass. Does it ever go on sale or is $35 the cheapest?
Voodoo Vince is _awesome_.
I'm really enjoying it so far.
Are there any other hidden gems like this on the original Xbox? They should remaster a whole bunch of them if possible.
I really love the light-hearted nature of the game. Vince is funny. And it's so refreshing to play this kind of platforming game on Xbox One.

You probably have already checked on xbox.com but here is the link for error codes - http://support.xbox.com/en-US/error-code-lookup?xr=shellnav
You can do an offline update here - http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/console/system-updates-solution
Oh, and if you are in the dashboard preview program check the preview forums to see if there's a known issue.

Late answer! I gave Forza Horizon 2 a 5/5 (and, for a different site, Forza Horizon 3 received the same score). I just don't fall 100% in love with that many games. Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap is really special, though.

Took the last one, the first. Second was already redeemed. Strange psychology that everybody thought that the first would be taken first. Lucky me! Thank you!

Gah...legitimately upset that I missed out on a code. I've been really excited to play this game.
Still, very generous to share them here, so much thanks and appreciation for that.

Here's my review of Butcher, a dark run-and-gun shooter with tiny retro graphics. Please check it out.
Butcher review [Windows Central]
Also a detailed hands-on Injustice 2 preview, if anybody's excited for that one:
Injustice 2 hands-on
All special games! I didn't review Rayman Legends, but I'd have given it 5/5 as well. Abzu and Guacamelee got 4.5/5 and Gears Ultimate got 4/5. Gears 4 would get 4.5/5. Lamentably, I haven't played either Tomb Raider game or Sunset Overdrive.
