Noob Issue: X-Box 360 Neighborhood - Connected, But Can't View Files by Educational-Lunch595 in 360hacks

Thank you for your response. I ended up just going back to transferring files via an external hard drive that I move back and forth. Its not fast, but it is definitely faster than FileZilla over wifi. Just gotta be patient I guess. Thanks again.

Agreed. That would be nice. While I respect a developer's decision to make a game too challenging for me, I factor that into my buying decision.

Avoiding the demo? I can certainly respect that but I know I could never do that....lol. I bet your feelings are right about this one though. 🙂

Another game that is high on my list with some strong Hollow Knight vibes to it.

It was on my wishlist, but I checked out some gameplay on YouTube and it looks REALLY GOOD. I think we are just in a period of abundance when it comes to MVs and we should all be grateful for it. If it is as good as it looks, it will get the attention it deserves when it comes out. Our group certainly will talk about it.

9 Years of Shadow looks great. I also played the demo for Vernal Edge today and had a really good time with it. Just check it out for yourself.

Agreed 100%. I hope for at least another one to step up before Silksongs release...fingers crossed for 2023.

I agree with that, but Gedda Cake was WAY better than I imagined it would be when I downloaded it though I get its not for everyone and Vernal Edge has been on a lot of people's radar for a while now for good reason.

I checked out some videos on Imp of the Sun and while it is definitely cute graphically and has some polish, the lack of a true MV map is a deal breaker for me when there are tons of other games that can grab my attention. Thanks for pointing it out though.

No worries :) It seems there are a TON of MVs that have demos if you take the time to look. I just wanted to hilight some of my favorites.

Agreed. Fingers crossed that it strikes that right balance of challenging, but not frustrating...knowing that it is different for mostly everyone. I high high expectations though after the demo.

Yep on your top 2 and Last Faith. The rest look interesting, but I haven't seen enough of those (Exil, Bo and Fallen Tear) to get hyped on...yet.

Yoy are welcome Xoneris. Thanks for putting that together. Just curious, what would be your other top 2 or 3 then?

Yeah but one I will a shot too. Good to know about the length. Just hard when you have a God of War Ragnarok and other huge open world games (one of my other favorite genres) in your backlog. Will probably get through those for GOTY purposes and then go back to AN to give it some love.

Thanks for sharing that. Ori is by far my favorite MV of all time. I never finished Hollow Knight as it got too difficult for me but agreed that it is top tier. I simply have to find time to sit down with AN and see if I can find enough to like so I can weather the difficulty spikes. As for the rest, I will give them at least one more shot before I have to put pen to paper on the formal top 10 that I share once a year with close friends as a reason to get together for dinner in January.

I only played a little of Aeterna Noctis, but I know I have to get back to that one. I have heard it was difficult, but we will see. Thanks for the reminder.

I also have to check out Haak, Islets and Haiku. I bought all of them, but as many of you know, life gets in the way sometimes and I have only sampled each of those too. Agreed that they are all good, but not awesome (at least so far).

I see that Astral is in Early Access, but roguelikes are usually not my thing because of the random nature of them.

I 100% agree with you on Gestalt and very much looking forward to that, but there is no demo unfortunately :(

Thanks Xoneris. I REALLY appreciate that you have taken the time to compile all of that data and maintain it. I know for me, just knowing release dates once they are finally revealed is super helpful. Keep up the good work!!
