After hearing positive things but being completely unfamiliar with it, I downloaded the trial version of Minecraft for the Xbox 360. I chose to keep any exposure to the game’s content to an absolute minimum, reading only a paragraph or two about the game’s jist (just to make sure I wasn’t letting myself in for something I’d likely despise). Minecraft sounded intriguing – building with blocks, creating something – a welcome change from the countless hours I’ve spent slaying hordes of aliens, dragons and irradiated zombies.

Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.

Ben Porter from Newzoo explains that the player base has very little overlap with mainstream hits such as Assassin's Creed: Shadows and Ghost of Yōtei
I used to buy cheap games thinking I’d play them later, but I always ended up returning to my favorites. Now I skip the deals unless I know I’ll play the game soon.
This is very true, my nephews grew up on these two games and whenever I introduce them a AAA game whether old or new, it's like seeing an alien try to make sense of it and then quickly lose interest in it.
Can’t really expect a 8 year old Roblox kid to go buy resident evil 9 lol
Gaming trends are so weird to me now. Like, I’m old school and games were consumed essentially how movies were. You play through a title and look forward to the sequel or other things that came out. Now, that is so not the norm.
