Games with Gold for Month of March 2020
Looks like the new Games with Gold were announced this morning. Certainly a good list for this month. I have played thru Batman: Enemy Within but it’s a good grab in case I get an itch to play it again. The other three I have not played and would certainly be willing to give them a try. Nice to see a Sonic game free too considering the movie is doing pretty well. Enjoy.
Xbox One
- Batman: The Enemy Within (March 1st – March 31st)
- Shantae: Half-Genie Hero (March 16th – April 15th)
Xbox 360
- Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (March 1st – March 15th)
- Sonic Generations (March 16th-31st)

BC Deals with Gold for the Week of February 25th, 2020
Well, you can rejoice. I am playing something besides Monster Hunter World. The game is called Sparklite. They had a physical copy sale @ Amazon for $9.99 and I quickly snatched it up. It’s a rogue-lite game which means you die a lot but you get to keep your upgrades (and boss progress in this case) so you naturally get stronger (and hopefully can do more). I’ve only beaten the first boss, I’ve attempted the second boss about half a dozen times but their log attack gets me every time. I’ll keep trying for now as I’m loving the Zelda flair to this game and still want to keep trying.
Well on to sales for the week. I know, you were probably expecting more than Rockstar Table Tennis and that’s it. Of course Rockstar kinda missed the boat when they did not make Max Payne 3 backwards compatible. It’s not like they are making a re-master as far as I can tell, so why not throw the players a bone. Well, we should also get the new Games with Gold statement for March soon, possibly today. Until then, please enjoy.

Donten: Laughing Under the Clouds – Gaiden: 3-Film Collection (Blu-Ray) Review
This one was a bit brutal but others might find it enjoyable.

Why yes I am still playing Monster Hunter World, however did you guess? A slow week to be honest, I am HR 91, almost at 92 but I did pick up the 10 small crowns achievement. I had started the week with seven small crowns and then got lucky with a couple of small crowns out of nowhere. After that, it was a lot of investigation work until Uragaan became my tenth small crown. If you are curious about my big crowns, sadly I’m still at 6, nowhere near where I would like to be. But I still have 8 levels before I hit the final achievement and just maybe I’ll get close enough.
Well, another steady diet of sales for this week. We got some Sonic, some Mass Effect, Dragon Age and Dead Space. Nothing new or fancy or even discounted more (though I think GTA IV and RDR – Undead might be the cheapest I’ve seen), but plenty of fun if there is something you have missed in previous sales. I did find a new game, Sparklite and might indeed start it this week since I’m on the closing moments of Monster Hunter World. Hope you enjoy the rest of your week.

Monster Hunter World update. I’m at HR 89 and was able to finish the achievement where all tracks of the original monsters were at max. My last two were the Kirin and Great Girros and I got fortunate as a lot of people were running the low level Kirin hunts. Now I guess the march to HR 100 is on which will probably be my last stop until I get around to purchasing Iceborne. It’s been a long fun ride but I am eager to get off the train as well. We’ll see what happens this week.
A ton of sales this week and certainly worth looking into. Of particular interest, both the Capcom Arcade Collection and the All In One Pack DLC are on sale at the same time. They had the habit in previous sales of doing one, one week and then a month later doing the other. Well here it is in one nice solid bite. It is also worth noting that the two BC Dead Rising Games are at their lowest price and worth getting even if you are just curious. Some Xbox Originals are provided as well with Sid Meier’s Pirates being the standout at only $2.99. This list is worth looking at least once just for the new % price cuts on some titles if nothing else. Enjoy the rest of your week. (Games after the bump)

BC Deals with Gold for the Week of February 4th, 2020
Yep, still playing Monster Hunter World. I did make progress though. I’m up to HR 83, and I’m down to 4 monsters whose tracks need to be maxed out. Those four are (with probably little surprise) Great Girros, Kirin, Black Diablos, and Kushala Daora. To be fair, Girros, Black Diablos and Kushala are all on their last star of research. Kirin, nobody wants to fight (understandable) and will probably still be here next week. Kushala Daora was probably my biggest increase in the last week as I was barely at 1 star and I’m up to 3 1/4 stars at the moment. I still can’t stand to fight them, but at least I don’t feel like a complete inept piece of crappy hunter similar to when I first faced them.
On to the sales which we do have a fair amount. There is also some DLC here which is nice to see. A lot of Saints Row if you haven’t gotten your fill of that as of yet. Oddly enough, a lone piece of Saints Row DLC is on sale but the first game is not. But to be fair, I think everybody has the first game in some form or fashion at this point. Especially all the times it was $2. Anyway, have a great week and I should have at least one Anime Blu-Ray review before the end of the week. Enjoy.

Games with Gold for Month of February 2020
Looks like the new Games with Gold were announced this morning. I’m really excited for Call of Cthulu (it’s been on my Amazon wishlist for months) but the rest can go rot where Lovecraft’s creatures go to feed. Seriously, Fable Heroes and Star Wars: Battlefront for the 360 side? What is the obsession with all of the Star Wars Original Xbox games on Games with Gold? I’m not going to bash TT Isle of Man since that plays into Microsoft’s other obsession with racing games but I guess I will patiently be waiting for COC on the 16th. Enjoy.
Xbox One
- TT Isle of Man (February 1st – February 29th)
- Call of Cthulu (February 16th – March 15th)
Xbox 360
- Fable Heroes (February 1st – February 15th)
- Star Wars Battlefront (XBO) (February 16th-29th)
