In one of the most double-think statements ever made outside of George Orwell’s 1984, Xbox Game Studios head Matt Booty has told employees that “We need smaller games that give us prestige and awards,” just one day after closing down the game studio that was responsible for the prestigious award-winning game, Hi-Fi Rush.

@nessisonett well, i'd say theres a high chance that it could be worth more of your time than armageddon. of course its up to you though, i just wanted to let you know that there was another mk game before armageddon.
Just finished Chorus on Series X after about 15 hours of playtime. Absolutely brilliant game! Not only was it fun to play a pure spaceship shooter, of which there aren't that many, it also told a fantastic story with an epic ending. The battles were awesome and the lore was engrossing. Great cast of characters as well, including the two protagonists.
It's always great to discover a new IP that's unique. It baffles me why there aren't more spaceship shooters as it's just so much fun flying around and shooting ships. I highly recommend playing this game if you want something different and it's also really cheap to find. I see physical copies going for around €10. For that price, it's an absolute steal.
Also finished Picross S Mega Drive & Master System Edition on Switch after 60 hours of playtime. I think I started this game two years ago and I've been playing it on and off since then. Probably won't buy a new Picross game soon as I still have Murder By Numbers left to play and if I'm in the mood for some Picross again, I can start that one up instead.
Anyway, this is my favourite Picross so far due to the Sega theme rather than the generic pictures in the regular games. Hopefully they put out more games like this one. I'd love one with a Nintendo theme.
Beat Ghost of Tsushima. Very very good ending. A lot is done right but there are a few sticking points for it to be a true classic for me. The horse is just a slight bit too slow to make traversing the game world ‘fun’, which I get as it’s a horse but the game frequently dips into being a little bit of a chore. The side quests I’d say are better than the majority of the main story too, each of the main sidequest lines are fantastic, dealing with different elements of the Mongol invasion.
I will say however, I just don’t think they handled the moral dilemmas of the game very well. I remember one bit in Yuna’s story which I assumed would delve into how the Japanese who don’t oppose the Mongols are essentially just survivors, which I thought would be an interesting juxtaposition to the Ghost’s stance. Nope, they’re a bunch of slavers who r**** Taka and Yuna repeatedly as children. Like talk about overkill for a very sensitive subject that is never mentioned again other than for Yuna at the end of the quest to be like nice job, I will never mention this horrible ordeal again as you’ve solved it by killing the dude.
Another issue is the central conflict. The one between Jin and Shimura. It’s that classic thing of the ends justifying the means
