I mean... ok, but why would anyone need it?

You can just get the game for free (or just buy and digitalize your physical actually owned game) and even play online with Xemu + Insignia

Why is people like 'FINALLY!'?

Not everone is a thief, has a pc, is technically inclined, or has time for that (or some combination of all of those).

I have no issues buying old xbox games like this and I have already digitized my exiting library of those consoles*. Its just nice to have access to that stuff from anywhere instead of having to take a laptop with a hardrive loaded to the gills with images.

Its...um...well the time mechanics are cool at least!
(everything else: camera, controls, character responsiveness, etc were lackluster even back then to me)

Yea I already hate the camera. I'm going to have to use controller remapping and flip the horizontal.

I have nothing bad to say about this at all. This rules.

Same. As someone who was pretty heavy in the Xbox ecosystem from the 360-Series era, who has now moved almost exclusively to PC: more of this please.

Played 40 min of Conker and had no issues except I couldn't figure out how to exit the game. I had to alt tab and then kill it. Crimson skies is 9.99 so I'll wait for that to go on sale.

Oh shit, games are already on there! I thought it was in the works lol, and I just noticed Tears of Metal is on there(Game Pass). Glad I checked, was about to pull the trigger on Steam for 24 bucks. That will hold me over until Halo. Nice!

it tells you on startup to press Menu and View at the same time to bring up the overlay (same way you bring up the guide in 360 games on Xbox One/Series X), and in that overlay is an exit button.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

are the others even in the store yet? when I looked them up earlier, only Conker was even available. so they are releasing them slowly across all regions it seems

yes all four of them are, I thought conker was w11 exclusive but it was just slow on the upload and became available 30 minutes later after my post in this thread.

 

[adamsapple]

I've never played Conker before.

I've never played Conker before.

the original was pretty jank, so that's excusable. the remake plays way better tho. but neither version is anything amazing gameplay wise tbh.

 

[CGNoire]

No disc support
Win 11 required
Xbox store required......ughhhh

Comparison. The lighting looks off in spots. But otherwise, pretty good. I am sure that DigitalFoundry's working on their comparison video right now, and there will be a video up soon enough.

My games for gold years (over 350 free games) might finally pay off?
