    what kind of name is "Puzzle Bobble 2X/BUST-A-MOVE Arcade Edition & Puzzle Bobble/BUST-A-MOVE 3 S-Tribute "
    lol laugh
    Seems like a typical title for one of these '1000G in 5 minutes' games. laugh
    It' two games. Puzzle Bobble 2x/Bust-a-Move and Puzzle Bobble/Bust-a-Move 3.

    Puzzle Bobble is the Japanese name and Bust-a-move is the American/European name. Why they list both in all regions is another question.

    You won't be getting 1000g in 5 minutes. :p
    Never intended to, I absolutely hate these 5 minute games and that I ever played any of them. It's just a cheap rush that's over quickly. It's a shame you can't give the gamerscore back. To each their own of course but these games aren't for me.

    But thanks for the info on the game, actually sounds like fun, I do enjoy puzzle games. By the title it seemed like one of those cheaply made 5 minute games to me.

    Never thought I'd see Age of Empires on console, I am going to try it but I can't imagine it playing well with a controller but maybe they've created tools to play it more easily.
    Interested to see the achievement list, as some of the timed ones would be near impossible with a controller. There is no TA page for it yet, so is it even a stack?
    Me too, I doubt it will have different achievements than the PC version but it would be nice it did, adjust them for controller use.
    Yeah, I don't even know if I'll be able to play it with a controller, I always play The Sims on SX with mouse and keyboard, kudos to those who don't lose their minds playing these games with a controller.

    Fashion Police Squad and SpongeBob for me! Although it looks like the new SpongeBob game is releasing with an unobtainable achievement, according to the solution for the 1 unearned achievement.

    Interested in Raiden IV, but I may have to see the price first.

    It supports keyboard and mouse - so can just skip using a controller!!

    I’m looking forward to WWHF - loved all the other games in the series - so can’t wait to see what’s in store this time around!

    Good to know - I'll definitely play it with mouse and keyboard then.

    I never played any games in the series but I have several friends who absolutely love it too. I'll have to put all of the games on my seemingly endless backlog list. :D

    Awesome week. So many good games already in 2023.

    Backfirewall_ looks like my cup of tea but that voiceacting needs to pick an accent and stick to it. Is it English? Aussie? Northern Irish? I doubt I would be able to play for long without muting it.....

    Fashion Police squad looks hilarious. That trailer actually made me (I hate to say it) laugh out loud.

    Does anyone know why there are 2 Backfirewall_ game pages? One has been made for a while and has all the news and stuff, while the other has the achievement list. Both point to purchase the same game.

    I think I have a problem with the Kemco rpgs. They're essentially the same game overand over with a slightly different story and characters. Yet I can't stop buying them. Help! facepalm

    The achievement list is shared:

    What achievements are included with the game?

    Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition on Xbox includes the same achievements as those on PC. Achievements are also shared between the Xbox version and the Microsoft Store version.
    No God, know fear. Know God, no fear.
