@Dezzy Yeah, the Google Dream; the information delivery service that uploads it directly to your mind. No need to look it up, and you get exclusive news first!
Sea of Thieves with friends is one of the most interesting and best games I have ever played, with some random crew and nasty traitors not so much. The updates have been good this far.
April Games With Gold are these.
XB1: The Technomancer, Outcast - Second Contact
Xbox/360: Star Wars Battlefront II (OG Xbox), Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2
I hope Inside Xbox is next week, judging by the usual patterns it's either on the 9th or 16th (with announcement on 3rd or 10th respectively). Would be nice to see the next FH4 expansion.
@Octane Wow, that's a FAR inferior effort compared to IGN's Mega-Everything-comes-to-Nintendo-Direct spoof.
Dumb jokes, and bad and unconvincing voice over as well...
@Octane Well, if it's supposed to be funny by being intentionally horribly bad, then I'm glad I'm not.
This was just bad as bad can be, and nowhere in any part of it, did it made me chuckle, much less crack a smile. Now, that fake Nintendo Direct on the other hand...
'The console wars are like boobs: Sony and Microsoft fight over which ones look the nicest and Nintendo's are the most fun to play with.'
I feel like Nintendo is going to have to make big changes to their presentation now that Sony is directly copying it and the format is becoming an internet meme. They don't like sticking with things that are routine.
I did get a chuckle out of Dragonbound (Dragonbound is cancelled!) thing
@ThanosReXXX@Octane It was slightly funny in some areas (like when he mimicked the style of the Nintendo Direct announcer) but otherwise it kind of fell flat. Dunkey’s other videos are much much better: I recommend you watch his BotW and Odyssey ones if you haven’t already @ThanosReXXX :
@shadow-wolf I'll consider watching them, in the interest of fairness, but I'd be surprised if I change my mind on the verdict. Comedy either grabs you, or it doesn't, and if this Xbox Direct effort is of a completely different tone than his usual stuff, which I can't really imagine, then he really made a bad first impression, which is hard to recover from.
In all honesty, though, I have to say that I'm rather spoiled where comedy is concerned: my uncle used to own one of the most famous standup comedy café's in Amsterdam, and I used to be house guest there practically every weekend, so I've seen some of the best comedians from all over the world performing on that stage. The average YouTuber, no matter how funny, can hardly compare or come close...

Comedy expert in here folks look out. Dont come with your weak youtubers lol!
Question about Gears of War for anyone. A buddy of mine just got 4. I know its primarily an action/shooter but will he miss out on a lot of story beats if he hasnt played the first few games?
The Xbox Direct by Dunkey is cheap and silly, I am surprised that anyone can find that Dunkey guy funny at all. IGN's Nintendo Direct was very funny for me. I would have preferred having a guy talking English the way Iwata did, I mean, in a way that you could not understand anything until Bill Trinen or subtitles popped in. WhatsApp coming to Switch! LOL
@redd214 He will miss some story elements based on the characters, but the game kind of starts a new story since I can't recall if there's an explanation as to why the locust return. I don't know if they still do this, but if you play GoW4 or the remake of the first one they give you download codes for 1, 2, 3, and Judgement. To keep people from missing out on them.
