Magic Monk Arcades
As stated earlier, the next Magic Monk Arcades event will be on the first Saturday of November, 2022-11-05, 11am UTC. This is less than 24 hours away! I will see you at this time on my Discord server (https://discord.gg/ZXXNj7J9QY) and we will play some games. I have stated a lot of rules previously but I think that might have put people off. If you just want to turn up, we'll make sure to play something and there will be prizes given to winners. Let's leave it at that :)

Why I paid $50 AUD for Assassins Creed Odyssey Ultimate
You probably thought I was crazy. Asssassin's Creed Odyssey is free on the Xbox Game Pass. So why would someone pay for the game still? I did start playing it for free. However, as I got more and more into the game I realised how much effort the developers put into it, and I think they deserve being paid extra for this game.
If you consider how much effort they put in modelling ancient greece, the characters, the story, how big the map is, how many quests and side quests there are, the combat system, so on and so forth. There's just so much in the game and it simply should not be free.
Secondly, the $50 AUD comes with Assassin's Creed 3 remastered, two DLCs (Legacy of the First Blade and The Fate of Atlantis), various other perks, as well as being able to keep this game forever. Essentially I'm paying the $50 for Assassin's Creed 3 and the two DLCs, which are not part of the Xbox Game Pass.
Also, you never know how long a game will stay on the game pass - every month there are games leaving. By paying the $50 you are guaranteed to have Odyssey forever, as well as all the DLCs and Assassin's Creed 3. I have heard really good things about Assassin's Creed 3, so I'm wanting to give it a go too, and the remastered version should have pretty decent graphics.
In summary, it is about $160 dollars worth of games for $50. So yes, that's why I paid $50 for it :) Do you think I made the right call?
