XBox Update: March 2025
My “100% a game a week” challenge for 2025 continues. Although I am going to start listing them as “Games” instead of “Weeks” as there are some weeks where I 1k multiple games, and it’s silly to like delay that last achievement or whatever. Or if I am going to be away and can’t 1k one week then I can do 2 the week before or after.
There have been 9 Sundays/Weeks in the year so far. I’m ahead which is nice.
Previous Games:
1: On the Road
2: Space Science Investigations
3: Maquette
4: BroForce
5: Football Manager 2024 Console
Game 6: I heard of that viral horror game The Exit 8 and decided to play it with my daughter as I knew it’d be up her alley. We had a blast with it. Funniest thing was I got the chivo for beating the game in 5 minutes on my first playthrough! Just got fortunate I guess. Anway this was worth the few bucks I paid for it for sure.
Game 7: Looking at the games leaving gamepass, I saw Return to Grace was leaving and was only a 4-5 hour one. This ended up being the perfect game to play on the treadmill as well. So I did it all on there while running at like a 5:45/km pace ha. Really enjoyed this one I have to say. Nice fun story to it.
Game 8: Beat The Walking Dead: Michonne. A very heavy narrative game which was perfect to play on the treadmill.
Game 9: After a year of it, I finally beat Puzzle Quest 3 and all the DLC. What I really loved about this game is I could play it on my phone via an actual app as opposed to the Xbox cloud. That was great and I got a ton of playing in via that way – actually most of my playing was that. This is one where they will occasionally add DLC so it might temporarily come off the list – but I’m considering it done.
Game 10: Paw Patrol World was leaving Gamepass so I decided to get that going on the treadmill. Perfect game for it even while running.
So ahead by a week right now – currently on Week 10. I’m also working on Little Kitty, Big City and Mad Streets and Duke Nukem 3D so hopefully wrap them up soon.
Pretty impressive amount – the treadmill has been very helpful as I run like 50k a week so getting a lot in, despite all my work on Book Notification over the last little while.
Also been playing:
Sniper Elite: Resistance Playing this sporadically with a friend.
Avowed Properly hooked on this one. Freaking loving it and highly recommended.
Balatro: My god this is addictive and the BEST. No joke I ran a half marathon last weekend – about 2 hours 10 minutes, and it felt like 20-30 minutes max because I played this It’s like a fucking cheat code.
