Episode 199 of TheXboxHub Official Podcast is up, live and ready for your listening. This time the guys chat over the best new games set to release on Xbox throughout May 2024.
In this article, I’ll attempt to suggest cars and tunes for you try out, all as you look to complete the Forza Horizon 5 Festival Playlist Weekly Challenges for Series 33 Autumn, in the hope of getting our hands on some exclusive cars.
One of the latest to go down the Game Preview and Game Pass route is that of Lightyear Frontier, a game that takes farming sim elements but puts it into space.
Toy Story 3 was a game that both big and little kids could enjoy. The story mode didn’t take longer than six hours to complete, but the real meat of the game - and most fun - was in Toy Box mode. It is a game that will stick with me throughout the rest of my gaming career.
As regular visitors to our lovely website will already be aware, we like to run a series of articles here at TheXboxHub harking back to great games of yesteryear. I myself have penned articles in praise of Forza Horizon 2, for instance, and even managed to cobble together something for the 40th birthday of PAC-MAN, a gaming hero who is nearly as old as I am. Now however I'm setting my sights a little higher: can I look back to the madness of the E3 conference of 2010? What games were released, what games went on to achieve greatness; which stumbled a little?
Though The Dark Knight gets the most attention, coming three years sooner it was Batman Begins that changed the superhero film as we know it. Christopher Nolan’s original interpretation of the character was one that was rooted in reality and was, crucially, believable. It was the first time it felt that characters like this could exist in the real world. It’s only fitting, then, that such a film’s tie-in video game would also be one that goes against the grain.
When Universal Pictures decided to rejuvenate the Jurassic Park franchise with Jurassic World in 2015, Chris Pratt (a.k.a. Star-Lord) was thrust into the main role for what turned out to be a box office hit. As is usually the case where blockbuster films are concerned, LEGO wanted a piece of the action. This led to the development of LEGO Jurassic World by TT Fusion as a tie-in videogame in the hopes of bringing their family friendly fun to homes around the globe. So let’s take a look back to 2015 and see whether the nostalgic journey delivered a totally roar-some experience, or not.
Online toxicity is not a new concept. It’s been here since the earliest days of online gaming, and it does not intend on leaving in the near future. It’s a phenomenon that spans across all gaming platforms, whether you play with a controller or a mouse and keyboard.

So, when all is said and done, was the PS5 reveal event a success?
We still don’t know any further details for KartRider: Drift on Xbox One at this stage, such as release date or price of the Racing Pass, but what we do know is that it will be free to play. And that is something that puts it over the other kart racers on the market.
Disintegration is just around the corner – don’t worry our review is on the way too – but before diving in, we wanted to give some helpful pointers for what to expect when the sci-fi shooter launches on Xbox One, PS4 and PC come June 16th 2020.
As someone who loves to research game creation starting from ideation to execution, it amazes me that Counter-Strike started out as a mod for Valve’s Half Life 2 created by a couple of college kids, and has since become a well-known household name and esports staple.
It's a game that doesn't cease to amaze even now and deserves an honorary place in the video game hall of fame. Let's go back to 2005 and take a look at the revolutionary sandbox wonder that is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Maneater is a great game, giving the survival genre a twist by making you the monster, pitting you against squishy little humans in a race to survive. Now, while the tutorial does a good job of explaining what you need to do, and the game is pretty easy to pick, here are a few little tips that I wish I'd known when I started playing. These should be pretty spoiler free, so don't stress too much if you haven't finished the game yet, but they’ll certainly help you out as you brave the darkest of depths...
Five years in the making, the emotional action adventure that is Waking will finally be found hitting Xbox One and PC on the 18th June 2020. Partially funded by ID@Xbox and combining third person action with fully voice guided meditation, it promise one hell of an adventure; one that has been influenced by the life of the developer - Jason Oda. We just had to find out more, so grabbed Jason for a little chat to see how Waking has become a reality.

Back in 2019, I undertook the daunting task to rank every single mainline Resident Evil entry. It wasn't easy. Since then, however, I've wondered - what about spin-offs? Fast-forward to 2020 when the whole world is literally on lockdown. Is there a better time to cover a virus outbreak series? And so I determined to do just that - I shortlisted 5 of the best best Resident Evil spin-offs and ranked them from the worst to the best.
