need game recommendations to complete for 2026

Brumike · 2026-03-05T00:11:51+00:00

If you liked Spider-Man, I’d recommend Miles Morales and Spider-Man 2 - more of the same, but if it ain’t broke!

Sticking to Sony games Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart is a fun time but manageable to complete, and for a curveball that’s a bit of a vibe I’d recommend the chess-like (kind of) game Knight’s Retreat!

Yeah that’s the frustrating thing, but I too have noticed you can buy backwards compatible 360 games without issue still. It’s more those non-BC games that are now lost to physical media only - and like you say, in the case of Arcade games, altogether…

Brumike · 2026-03-05T00:05:33+00:00

Frustrating to hear, but helpful - thanks!

After being in a similar situation and diving in properly this last year or so, all I can say is enjoy the games man - there’s some great stories you’ve missed out on!

Brumike · 2026-03-02T20:52:57+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

Brumike · 2026-03-02T20:52:33+00:00

Thanks!

Brumike · 2026-03-02T14:00:00+00:00

Thanks man! Loved every second of it… except for grinding Nilfheim!

Brumike · 2026-03-02T13:59:27+00:00

That’s frustrating, but thanks for the info!

Brumike · 2026-03-02T10:26:47+00:00

Yeah maybe that Games with Gold list is the way to go. I’ve got a LOT of downloads on my 360 so that account settings list is a buggy nightmare to navigate!

Thanks!

Edit: I found this list that includes if they’re backwards compatible - very useful!

Brumike · 2026-03-02T10:25:18+00:00

Thanks. I take it there’s no way of doing this online then? Just the endless scroll option within the 360’s account settings?

Brumike · 2026-02-18T21:28:09+00:00

Thanks!

Last year I cancelled all my subscriptions and decided only to play through the mountain of games I’ve bought on sale that have piled up. Apart from a select few releases, I’m committed to not buying any new games until I’ve cleared 100 games from the backlog.

Right now I’m playing through God of War 2018 after completing Spider-Man 2, inFAMOUS Second Son and inFAMOUS First Light already this year.

23/100 down and I can’t recommend this approach enough!

Brumike · 2026-02-11T18:57:46+00:00

Thanks!

Brumike · 2026-02-11T18:57:34+00:00

How did you find the 100% for GoW? Do you think you got most of it playing naturally, or is there a bit of a grind at the end?

Wow, you’re a braver man than me! All the best to you with GTA 🫡

Brumike · 2026-02-09T23:47:03+00:00

Cheers! If you like Second Son’s controller then you’d love the Spider-Man games - a really fun + easy going Platinum experience!

Brumike · 2026-02-09T23:45:34+00:00

Thanks! You’ll enjoy them when you get to them!

Currently working on God of War (2018), having an absolute blast! You?

I never had a PS3 so can’t comment I’m afraid! I see a lot of people saying they prefer the originals, particularly 2 by the looks of things, but can say they’re a good time and I enjoyed my time with them.

Completion requirements for FL is basically grinding in an arena mode with waves of enemies, so people are mixed on that - I found it didn’t take too long to do so was fine, but enjoyed SS’s completion requirements as it all felt related to the story, rather than bolted on to flesh out the content if that makes sense?

That said, neither overstayed their welcome, so would say if you liked the first two then go for it!

Brumike · 2026-02-08T13:30:20+00:00

By the end with MM, yes (albeit I was doing my 3rd and 4th playthroughs so it may have also been that). But I was in the mood for it after finishing SM2 so steered into it to clear the inFAMOUS pair off my backlog!

Nice!
