[Tregard]

It was always going to be a hard act to follow last month, I suppose

 

[jesu]

Boo!
I own them all already, oh well.

 

[BAW]

Interested in Grid 2. How good is it, exactly?

 

[Footos22]

Must of used their budget up last month

 

[MauroNL]

I will download all games and not play them after that as usual
Thanks I guess

 

[Spades]

It was always going to be tough to follow last month, but this is still a fairly disappointing line-up if it turns out to be true.

 

[MMaRsu]

Not enough for me to reup now,already have peggle and no interest in grid 2

 

[Chris1]

82 Metacritic (PS3 version) so probably not too bad, but not fantastic either.. IIRC people said it was a step down from GRID 1 though.

 

[BLACK AMERICAN PSYCHO]

They are trying their hardest to keep Ryse off of GwG. Just let it go man.

 

[dugdug]

What's the other 360 game besides Grid 2?

 

[FelipeMGM]

Costume Quest 2 is pretty good, apart from that kinda meh

What's the other 360 game besides Grid 2?

Peggle

 

[OnionPowder]

what garbage

as in i already own all of it

 

[Zedox]

Bruh. So hard.

 

[Rellik]

Oh hell no.

 

[GavinGT]

I'm always looking for local co-op tower defense games, so Defense Grid 2 is awesome for me.

 

[BrettHeazy]

just in time for Peggle 3 announcement at E3

 

[Delicious Waffles]

Costume Quest 2 isn't bad. I enjoyed the first one a lot more but I'll take it.

 

[StarBlazers1]

Saving the good stuff for June/E3 huh?

 

[mike4001_]

Saving the good stuff for June/E3 huh?

Well after last month.

I give them 1-2 crap months

 

[Strootman]

Hope not true

Will play costume quest 2 though

 

[Jawmuncher]

Pretty weak month for XBL

 

[creatchee]

I already own Dead Rising 3 and Ryse, yet I still want them on GWG so I don't need the discs anymore. #firstworldproblems

 

[TheAdmiester]

Not too interested in the other stuff but GRID 2 is a pretty great game. Already played it on PC but I'll probably grab it just for the achievements.

 

[Banderdash]

Bruh. So hard.

Did they ever sort out the rights with that?
I thought they were fighting with CryTech about it.

That's possibly the reason we haven't seen it.



Mind you, PSN hasn't seen The Order yet either.

 

[speedomodel]

CQ2 is wonderful. Peggle is the most disappointing item, I think. Just....eh..

 

[Zach]

Costume Quest 2 is a cute game. My son and I enjoyed it.

 

[DISSESHOWEDO]

I'm canceling my non existent live subscription!

 

[Lucifon]

You were never going to follow last month strongly. Not an amazing month, but both solid XB1 games from what I've heard. Don't own either so that's a bonus.

 

[The Lamonster]

Since I'm at work with images blocked, I'm going to guess that one of the games in the imgur pic is Defense Grid 2 and another is Costume Quest 2. Let me know if there are more, though!

 

[LordBaztion]

That's terrible. How many racing games can you need?

Defense Grid 2
Costume Quest 2

Grid 2
Peggle

That's terrible. How many racing games can you need?

At this rate people should probably start avoiding Codemasters games aswell.

F1 2013, Dirt 3, Dirt Showdown, GRID 2, Operation Flashpoint DR all in the last few months

 

[SpideySenses]

At this rate every single GRID and DiRT title is going to be backwards compatible before we get a single Forza game.

 

[Theorry]

Pretty crap for me. Awell after last month they are allowed.

 

[DagnastyEp]

Interested in Grid 2. How good is it, exactly?

As far as Tower Defense games go, Defense Grid and DG2 are probably my two favorite games in that genre. I really enjoyed DG2, and hope we get more games in the series.

 

[shandy706]

That's an amazing group of games if you don't have them.

Love Costume Quest.

I own every game there though, haha.

Terrible collection of games

WTF are you people talking about?

Those are some really good games, whether you own them already or they're not your preference.

 

[generic_username]

Terrible collection of games

 

[oldsnakeonline]

DG2 and CQ2 don't even worth playing for free. Grid 2 is not bad. I never liked peggle. so if it is true it will be one of the worst month ever for me ...

 

[zero86r]

I enjoyed peggle and grid 2, not the worst selection of games but as has been said they were never gonna beats this month's selection.

 

[jelly]

Racing games usually are worth nothing very fast so not surprising another one from Codemasters is there.

 

[Voysa Reezun]

CQ2 was such a disappointment. The woman who wrote/was heavily involved in the first one left Double Fine before CQ2 came out, IIRC, and it showed. There was less charm and the way they resolved the cliffhanger from Grubbins on Ice felt obviously cheap, and not in a clever way. It was nice to see how Elliott and Lucy turned out, though.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Cool. Maybe ill just que them as purchased so i can dl them later. thanks ms.

 

[etta]

I'm interested in Costume Quest, bit otherwise a terrible month. Peggle? Really?
Disregard about Grid.

 

[EBE]

defense grid 2 and costume quest are pretty awesome actually

 

[ryan299]

Not a rumor anymore. Major just tweeted it. Terrible month

 

[Moertel]

Shit month.
Costume Quest 2 is fun, but not as good as the first one

 

[nicanica]

edit:

Not Peggle 2.

I'm pissed

Updated the main post, not sure if someone wants to make a new thread or wait for a mod to update the title.

I've sent a message to a mod to request a title change anyways.

 

[Andodalf]

meh. last moth was fire tho, so it's okay.
