Topic: The everything Xbox thread

That's it, I'm buying a million Xbones and have them put on an endless loop of playing R.C. Pro-Am.

@TheLastLugia: kinda funny that you are the one defending my comment that started the debate about the scalebound protagonist^^ im totally with you on that topic. cant undestand why so many people here dont understand you/us.

on topic: ehm...still not buying an xbox one or any other 8th gen console. but microsoft's portfolio is not that bad by now.

Hopefully that is improved with Window 10. Wasn't the Xbox One designed with Windows 10 in mind anyway? According to Mike Ybarra (Director of Program Management for Xbox) "We’re bringing an improved Guide (like 360 Guide) with the new UI for Xbox One. It is fast and gets you to the things you want in a click." http://www.purexbox.com/news/2015/08/gamescom_2015_new_ui_tar...

I am hoping for a new Viva Pinata

@Ryno: I sure hope so. Thanks for showing me this.

Pretty rad!

Nice article on Scalebound for anyone remotely interested is it and/or Hideki Kamiya. Scalebound Isn't the Game You Think It Is

2016 is going to be a great year for video games.

@ryno

The irony is people complain about CG trailers but than tear apaprt pre alpha gameplay.

@shingi_70: Those are usually the type of people who are displeased with everything.

and those are the same people buying that game day one without waiting for reviews...

With as cheap as the games are getting now, I think this'll be the perfect time to rebuild my 7th gen library.

We have both a 360 & a PS3, yet I only own 2 games on each system (Red Dead Redemption & Dead Island on the former, and InFamous & LBP on the latter).

I originally sold off my 360 collection when our old one RROD'd (my bro, who isn't really into games, randomly bought the cheap model with no hard drive a few months later, just to play James Cameron's Avatar: the Game, since he's a huge fan of the movie), and I just never got into the PS3 for whatever reason, even though I'm a big PS2 fan (the PS3 is pretty much just our father's MLB the Show machine at the moment).

Still don't care about KI. Awesome the Battletoads guy is in, now, though.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone is interested in trading for an UK Halo Master Chief Collection Code?

Picked up an XB1 last month (the Halo MCC bundle as that was the only one available at the time) & whilst I thoroughly enjoyed Combat Evolve/Anniversary & Reach back on the 360, I'm not particularly a fan of 2, 3 or 4.
I would rather wait for the backwards compatibility in Nov & pick up CEA & Reach separately & save some gb space too.

Tend to stick to platformers & adventure/story driven games nowadays so if anyone is interested & has a spare code for; Ori & The Blind Forest, Child Of Light, Valiant Heart, Tempo etc for example, any of them would be much appreciated thank you. Just shoot me a message if so.

Thanks & happy gaming.

Rare Replay hits the number 1 spot in the UK chart, the first Xbox only game to do this since the console launched. Thrilled to see it get success and hopefully show these type of games are still wanted.

Rare Replay, as excellent as the collection is, is a budget priced game (it's less than £20 everywhere) being released in the slowest week of the year at the height of summer and during the British school summer holidays too.

I am thrilled too, but its context is meaningless without any numbers. It could have done ten million or ten thousand - I am leaning towards the latter number. I do rather like knowing that a British developer reached number one for the first time on the Xbox One before anybody else though!

I honestly don't know what to look forward to. I'm unable to afford everything and a lot of stuff is rehash/remake or I don't care.

Maybe once Xbox One gets Windows 10, I'll go on Steam or download other BS like older PC games, but it's barren for me, for now.

@WaveBoy: That is why your first game should Transformers Devastation. You were/are an 80's Transformers fan right? Transformers was #2 for me behind TMNT and in front of He-Man.

@Ryno: From the people that brought you http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/the-legend-of-korra (and that is the highest score out of PC, PS4, XB1)

@WaveBoy:
I have to agree, honestly. Dead Rising 3, Halo MCC, and Titanfall have been a blast(even though Titanfall had some issues, at first), but I just see no more reason to buy FPS games. I already have CoD BO II and Ghosts on Wii U, along with Halo(which I've never beaten a Halo campaign until I bought the collection, and I still haven't gotten around to playing 1, or ODST).

Resident Evil remake was back on GCN, and I already have some Xbox 360 games like Reach, etc. I have a backlog, and lots of games are similar, like CoD every year. I just don't see reason to buy much. Tekken 7 looks interesting, but again, I already played Tekken Tag 2 on Wii U for at least 200 hours, and I still might not think a lot of these games are worth buying, because the games on Xbox One and PS4 still just seem too similar to the quality games we got on last generation.
RE2 remake will be worth a look, but it still goes back to what I can afford, otherwise I'd buy everything, obviously.

My backlog reaches back to 3DS, too, so I might as well spend my money on something else. I can't wait to play ESPN Extreme Games and Deadly Rooms of Death on Xbox One, when Windows 10 comes out. Those games were the s*** on Windows '95 Hopefully, Microsoft makes Windows BC happen, like that...
