Boy Hi Fi Rush sure looks great. I sure hope nothing bad ever happens to that studio ever. We could sure use more games like that from Xbox right now :D
I found your videos through a Steam review you left on the store page and now I cannot WAIT for your videos each month. I went as far back as early 2022 to see if there were any games I might enjoy but skipped over redeeming because the art/store page didn't grab me. You make my month every month, Kinglink!
Glad to be validated with King of the Castle. Had a bit of qualms talking about a game I didn't actually play. Surprised that Bravery and Greed only made average on your list. For me, this definitely felt like one of the better rogue-lites in a while. Although...I will admit that it was a bit easy. I had died once with the rogue but once I switched to Amazon, it felt a little too easy to just spam my chakram on the bosses. And Tango Gameworks...man, such a pity. Sometimes I really don't get the decisions made in the AAA space...or I do, but it just sucks that it usually just boils down to money. Anyway, great review, man!
I will probably skip even though I bought last month's after a long series of skips. So I'm probably in a minority with my choices. As most people did the other way around I think
Was waiting for your video as usual. I'm on the fence - I've tried to get into Yakuza before never succeeded but did love hi fi rush on Xbox when I had game pass. Probably will pick this up if I get the discount but otherwise meh
Thanks for the review, it helps me decide, which is SO hard for me to, since HiFi rush seems awesome, but i’m not sure about the rest. Yakuza is great but i’ve never been interested in it, Loddlenaut also seems great but i work in sustainability field so it doesn’t feel like a cozy escape, more like a cozy study 😂 Steelrising, i like the genre but not the visual and theme (i like Kena and KH, but not dark gloomy game like souls). Interested in the horror game but i can’t stand jumpscares. And the other rest, i wont even touch them. Not even gonna glance at Mediterranea, trippy sex and drug drama theme rly isn’t for me, i watched the trailer and went “ew”, so 😂
A strange month indeed, 2 wishlist (the headliners), 4 fine, and 2 skip. Pretty much like what you ranked, haha. Steve jobs was right, when the marketing and shareholders run the company, making great games doesn't matter anymore and the ones that love doing it get driven out...

I'm sure it will be supported for decades to come.
@@poeterritory I know right hopefully we get a sequel announcement this year or next year, hopefully the studio is eating well
It really sucks cause it's probably the best game that Xbox studios has put out since the 360
It's a great game but I got tired of it. Still sad they got disbanded, the game was better than most

humble bundle coming out with some great stuff lately, from the humble choice to the team17 and metroidvania bundles
always wait for your video before buying the choice since i'll save time and wont have to research myself :D kudos to you!
Really appreciate these reviews
Always really appreciate your research and educated perspective.
Always on the clock, always high quality reviews. You going to expand your repertoire to the ocassional bundles as well? Yes please!
I’m not taking tango’s closure well either
I played both Ghostwire Tokyo and HiFi rush and loved both, it’s gonna be sorely missed

I liked steel rising the combat feels pretty good after getting used to the dashing snd freeze mechanics
Thanks for the review!
lol, i came from your steam review but this is hella good!
I'll buy it for hifi rush and yakiza
I’m just happy I can get HiFi Rush in the cheapest way just to not give Microsoft all my money for doing such a poor decision of closing Tango
Like a dragon is amazing, and the main character is far, far more than a “drop-in” character if you play far enough to get to know the guy

There's also a new metrodvania bundle that just came out. Worth checking out.

Under normal circumstances, I would've picked it up but I already have 2 copies of Yakuza Like a Dragon (1 on Steam and 1 on PS4) so I'm gonna pass
Thanks as always for the video! Already own Hi-Fi Rush and don't think I'll like Yakuza based on the combat, so I'll pass on this month.
RIP Selvage8 1 and Selvage8 2
I'm only actually sad we didn't get him another time. ;)
Thanks. Will skip this month, though I was somewhat tempted.
Thanks. I click on like first and then I watch.
If I'm not a fan of over-the-shoulder-3d-fighting games - this bundle is not for me.
