I have Arcade as part of Apple One and continually forget I own it. Then I open it and remember why I forget I own it.

These games continue to be lame. I don't know anyone who cares about Apple Arcade. They need to step it up or drop it.
Does who you know define what is good and bad? When's your next party? I'd like to attend. 😜

If you're expecting Apple Arcade to offer top-shelf FPS-type games that are found on other platforms, you'll be waiting a while. Blood-thirsty FPS games are a partial contributor to the state of today's unhealthy mental development. I'm glad that Apple doesn't partake in their distribution.

Why are the graphics so bad in these games? They usually look like they could have run fine on 2010 phones/iPads. We get these much-touted insane leaps in graphics horsepower, but the games stay the same. (I clicked on PowerWash Simulator)

make it 14-19.99 a month and give us some AAA games that are compatible with M1 or A17+. in its current state it's not even worth 2.99 a month
