Battletoads
Anyone else playing the new 'toads? I bought it outright, but it was on GamePass Day 1, and I know we have some GamePass subscribers. Reviews have only been so-so, but I've enjoyed what I've played so far. I know some of the more annoying parts are things I haven't reached yet, though. I expect this will end up being one of those games with a lot of good ideas bogged down by a few bad. Hopefully that means a refined sequel could be truly great!

I'll try it out with game pass at some point! Never played the original so I don't really have the drive to play it. Been looking for something really casual to play though so maybe this will be it!

Re: Battletoads
Well, you can see my full thoughts over in the game clear thread, but there definitely is a rough patch about 3/4 of the way through the game. I'd still says it's good overall, but it's a shame because it could've been much better! Worth playing though, and I bet it's a blast co-op regardless. For obvious reasons, I played it solo, though, because of its baffling lack of online multiplayer. Also, you could always play on easy too if you don't want to deal with some of the frustrating later bits.The Shoemaker wrote: ↑24 Aug 2020 22:30 I'll try it out with game pass at some point!

For GamePass users, it's an easy recommendation to try for free! I guess that's one of the perks. Still don't know if I'll ever get GP, but the convenience of being able to download any game on there at basically no risk is pretty nice for sure.
