  Same, I started the Witcher 3 and immediately the world feels like a checklist and for some reason I can’t that Gerald seriously. He looks comical, like a teen’s drawing, and the movement feels completely ungrounded.

  • Circut Superstars. I’ll never become good at this but close to finishing it on Amateur
  • Diablo 4. I dislike the MMOification and despite Blizzard, but got it with the Xbox so might as we’ll play it. The campaign and monster bashing are fine
  • Sound Shapes. Sweet game, taking it one album at a time
  • Trials Rising. Cleaning up the Hard tracks and that ain’t no lie
  • Dirt 2.0 demo. I’m OK at CMR 2 and 05 but I have no idea how to control my car in this one. It’ll come with time

  I was about to move on until I read someone asking if this was a Bit Trip Runner clone. NOW you have my attention

  No, it is a simple recompile, from the original source code

  Didn’t they use static recompilation?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does Xbox backward-compatibility works?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The Xbox 360 uses a processor with a different instruction set which means the executable on the disc simply isn’t compatible with the Xbox One and Series X|S. For those, Microsoft have worked with game vendors to convert the executable (from binary, not source) to the other platform: “static recompilation”. The new executable must be downloaded to play the game.

  For the Xbox One, the architecture is very similar to the Series X|S so it can mostly just run it like you can run Windows 7 games on Windows 11 with compatibility tweaks applied by the operating system.

  Why do they have one at all if they’re going to blatantly not comply

  Yes! I got it again on PS1 a while back and still like to play it.

  Very excited for this! Playroom was such a delight and I can’t wait to get more of it. (Now please can we get Sackboy 2 ☺️)
