XBox Update: Rage 2 & XCom 2
2 months since I last updated here. Last time I updated I had beaten Spiderman on the PS4 and the outer Worlds. I then started Madden 18 although I haven’t finished that one yet.
I took a rare vacation over the holidays so wanted to get into a game. At first I went with Rage 2 however honestly I wasn’t super into it. I just was not into the story at all. I kept getting all these quests and was just like “Yeah I don’t care about any of these”. Such a soulless game.
So I stopped rather than waste my holidays hating myself. I went with XCom 2. Man I love turn based strategy games.
I started that on December 23rd and put 40 hours into it and beat it just an hour ago. I ended up with 46/70 achievements in that one. 710/1350 gamerscore.
I’m not bothering with going back and getting chivos at the moment for that or any other games. I will again eventually but right now it’s just about new games.
Pretty sure the next one I start will be Far Cry 5.
I’m also getting interested in esports and have been watching a bunch. I have tons of esports betting articles over at Where To Bet and that’s got me hooked on it.
Feels weird having that on in the background but I am enjoying it.
I was going to get into PC gaming with that XBox PC Gamepass deal but haven’t got round to it yet. Installed Age of Empires though on my laptop so hopefully soon.
Updates since last time:
XBox Games to Wrap Up: 167 (+1)
New XBLA Games: 72
New XBox 360 Games: 104 (+1)
New XBox One Games: 192
Sports/Racing Games: 52
Bloody free games. Honestly I am not sure how accurate those lists are anymore with EA Access and all that and losing track of games but they’re close enough.
Gamerscore: 283,263 (+1885)
TA Score: 453,280 (+3564)
Achievements: 12,070 (+109)
TA Ratio: 57.62% (-0.49%)
100% Games: 114
A bunch of the achievements are from Mason and his games. That ratio – yikes. Although it looks like Mason started both Astroneer (6/54 chivos) and Stardew Valley (10/44) plus with Rage 2 yeah it makes sense.
Far Cry 5 time!
