I burned through this in a week and got all achievements. I got tired of the building once I did everything. Interested in the expansions coming out. It is amazing but doesn’t have the endless play of Vampire Survivors or Blataro for me.

362 - Starfield released in 2023. This game suffered from its own hype. It is a good game, just not quite Skyrim in space everyone hoped for. Also got much better through patches and expansions. Hopefully more to come.

361 - Spider-Man 2 released in 2023. As long as the two previous games combined. So much to do and explore in this expansive open world game. There were a few scenes that seemed over the top but generally great game.

360 - Inscryption released in 2023. I didn't play this until it came to Xbox. I enjoyed the first type of game more than the second or third. Overall the game was an amazing experience. Not sure it is a game I will replay.

359 - Hi-Fi Rush released in 2023. A suprisingly good game in a style I haven't really played otherwise. An action game on the beat. Just tried it since it was on Game Pass and was suprised.

358 - Vampire Survivors released in 2022. Not sure if it created the auto shooter roguelike genre but it for sure was the first one that everyone knows about now. So many hours played on this and similar games since.

357 - Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection released in 2022. Another cheat of sorts in a collection combining two games. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and the expandalone Uncharted: The Lost Legacy are combined. Both games I really enjoyed.
