Whoa. Looks like Hong Kong Massacre just hit Xbox. Didnt hear about that. I enjoyed it on PS.

Dropping by quickly to share that Guilty Gear on the Game Pass is super awesome, and I have been genuinely surprised by how good it is.
They came back to very traditional roots of 2D fighting games with limited combos, limited number of attacks, and hits that hit very very hard, but are slow and expose you a lot. This is so refreshing after the endless series of fighting games we have been playing where everyone is basically trying to connect with a crouched low attack in order to go into an endless string of stupid combos.
Never thought that such gameplay would come from Ark System Works, people who actually made DB FighterZ which exactly what I have just described, and that ruined my enjoyment (on top of the shittiest AI ever) despite the awesome graphics.
Give it a try, I think this is the best 2D fighter available right now.

Nice deal for new games, but also a daily reminder you can put a standard SATA SSD (40 bucks) inside an external case (15 bucks) and play almost all backward-compatible (Xbox through Xbox One) games no problem. Honestly, too many people look over this tip and buy "Game Drives", which are slow as balls HDDs, and it's a complete waste of money.

Got a lovely advert for Prada on my dashboard.

I had no clue the 8bitdo M30 6 face button controller released on Xbox.
I have one for my Sega Genesis and PC - and now Xbox.
Has 4 bumpers unlike the other versions of it which is super nice.
Tested it with Radiant Silvergun, Strikers 1945 II, and Street Fighter 2 thru 6.
Works beautifully!
Even has a switch in the back to toggle the dpad from LS to DP - and a switch to shuffle the bumper buttons around if needed.
Possibly the best solution to a 6 face button xbox pad yet. For me, its tied with the hori 360 fighting commander (not the octa one).

Also, another one I wanted to share.
AC Unity keys can be bought for $2 or so on Eneba. The game has FPS boost for a rock-solid 60 FPS with the latest patched version so you don't have to rely on using the launch disc 1.00 version without any updates and play it at 60 FPS in a completely broken state (They patched FPS to 30 with patches and FPS boost is the only way to play at 60 in the most stable state on console).
Holds up really well, probably the best last 'classic' style AC game before Origins.

Recommend looking carefully through the new indie sale that's up. Finding a lot of gems, for lower prices than usual.

Would you mind recommending a few of those gems? Maybe something to add to the ever growing backlog.

I will try when I get home and have time tonight.
I just skimmed it and saw the NES style Bloodstained games for $5 a piece and grabbed those. Also some random FPS that I had my eye on that I've never heard of was like $2.

I thought Reagan Gorbechev would be a joke but its fun as hell. Hotline miami with dual characters and light puzzles. Made it through the first 6 levels so far. You can even position your alternate character by doors and they'll auto-attack enemies in sight. Best $1 I've spent on a game.

Also recommending Hyper Parasite. Was $1.50. Low budget Robotron style shooter but you're a parasite that can control enemies similar to how you normally pick up new weapons. Simple but fun.
