News Greg Hastings Paintball 3 Set To Take Aim On Xbox One
Well, this one got past us. Stealthy.
It appears that Super X, the team behind the next iteration of the assumed-dead Greg Hastings Paintball franchise, have confirmed that their new game will be coming to Xbox One. Posted a few months ago on their Instagram account was a platform announcement shot, which confirms that Greg Hastings Paintball 3...
News Don't Panic! Rare Replay Games Can Be Played Full Screen and Without Borders
Phew!
Rare Replay is heading to Xbox One within the next week or two and more details about the 30-game compilation are coming to light. It seems that some were concerned - as we were - that the older games would need to be padded out with massive borders to prevent them from looking poor on the larger resolution that modern consoles provide...
Rumour Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes to Hit Games With Gold in August?
Could be
File it strictly under the rumour column for now, but evidence has come to light that suggests that Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes could be the lead-off title in Microsoft's Games With Gold offering in August. Eagle-eyed pX regular Jari sent in the above image, which shows that via SmartGlass - and only in some regions, since it isn't...

Take a look at the game select screen
Whether you're planning on owning the disc or digital copy, Rare Replay -- a collection of 30 classic Rare games -- is going to take up approximately 50GB of your precious Xbox One memory to install each game. Based off of information from the Xbox website, Rare Replay needs 11.26GB to install every game that...
Review Tachyon Project (Xbox One)
Quickfire
Another month, another neon-infused twin-stick shooter for Xbox One. It can get tiresome with the same old gameplay being trotted out time and again with just a minor twist here or there to differentiate the current title from the others, but to write Tachyon Project off due to the sins of the games that have come before it would be wrong...

News No, Next Month's Games With Gold Have Not Been Leaked Yet
Think about it...
We don't often run "debunking" stories here at pX, but we felt like we needed to this time, given the proliferation of the story that is doing the rounds. It seems that a user over at 4chan has posted an image that claims to be a leak from Xbox.com which shows next month's Games With Gold offerings. The image shows Ryse: Legendary...

Review Tembo the Badass Elephant (Xbox One)
Here comes the boom
Tembo the Badass Elephant is a 2.5D side-scrolling action game with a hand-drawn comic book art style that somewhat resembles Regular Show and other Cartoon Network cartoons. When the evil Phantom Commander and his loyal army take over Shell City, the military calls on the aid of Tembo the elephant, drawing him out of retirement...
Rinse and repeat and repeat and repeat.
When it comes to retro racers on Xbox One, there's something of a shortage. Sure, there are a few arcade racers kicking about, but nothing that could really be described as harking back to days of old. Spectra: 8-bit Racing promised to fill that gap, providing a chiptune-powered and neon-cloaked experience...

News The Elder Scrolls Online Imperial City DLC Announced
Huge base-game update also incoming
The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited is getting a new content update in September. The update will include the Imperial City, the first major downloadable content expansion for the game. The capital of the Cyrodiilic Empire is under siege. Daedric Prince Molag Bal has seized control of the Imperial City...
Thursday16th Jul 2015
Burnt out
Finally, it's time for a little Formula One action in the current generation. If you put aside the cameo appearances of F1-style cars in other titles, we've yet to get our F1 fix on Xbox One. That was due to Codemasters deciding that they were going to release F1 2014 for last-gen machines back in September, whilst creating a "new...
News Final Fantasy VII Remake Spotted for Preorder on Xbox One
Always on the cards
It looks like the much-ballyhooed remake of Final Fantasy VII that was shown off during Sony's E3 press conference will be coming to Xbox One after all, if the Australian arm of EB Games is to be believed. They've listed Final Fantasy VII Remake as being available for preorder on Xbox One for the placeholder price of $109.95 AUD...

pX Asks What Does Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility on Xbox One Mean to You?
We team up with the pX community to answer the question
Later this year, Xbox 360 backwards compatibility is coming to Xbox One. The announcement of this much requested feature came from the mouth of Xbox boss, Phil Spencer, during Microsoft's 2015 E3 press briefing, and it's been getting steady attention since then. For the most part, it appears...
Review Sparkle Unleashed (Xbox One)
The sincerest form of flattery
Back in the very early days of the Xbox 360, one of the first titles to help shape the idea of what Microsoft's then-innovative Xbox Live Arcade service could be was PopCap's Zuma. The game was a rightfully popular puzzler which tasked players with firing coloured marbles into a rapidly-advancing line of similar...

News Get Fallout 3 Early with Your Fallout 4 Preorder
"For you, no charge"
Bethesda Game Studios surprised no one in announcing Fallout 4 at this year's E3. However, many gamers were surprised to see the game set to release this year, on November 10th. Xbox One owners were given further cause to celebrate with Microsoft's own backwards compatibility announcement being followed up by Bethesda declaring...

Review Payday 2: Crimewave Edition (Xbox One)
A Complete Bust
Last year, several notable releases found themselves under scrutiny for releasing in a broken state. Sadly, this trend has continued into 2015 as yet another broken game is available for purchase. This time around it is publisher 505 Games who have put a horrendous version of Overkill Software's popular cooperative shooter Payday 2...

Just some friendly advice here, but you may want to hold off on purchasing any digital games right now. Beginning next Tuesday -- July 7th -- Xbox is holding another massive Ultimate Game Sale.

Review Quantum Rush: Champions (Xbox One)
A bit too rushed
There are a lot of people out there clamouring for F-Zero and Wipeout to make a proper return on current hardware. Unfortunately, neither of these classic series have plans to stage a comeback any time soon (not that we know of, at least). It's not all bad news, though, because games like FAST Racing NEO and Quantum Rush Champions...

Feature From Worst to First, We Rank the Batman: Arkham Games
Will you be friend or foe after reading our list?
A lot of people like to argue about which Arkham game is the best Arkham game. On one side of the fence are the fans who adore Arkham Asylum, the Metroidvania-esque debut that put developer Rocksteady Studios on the map, while the other side consists of folks with a special love for Arkham City, the...
Review Shooting Love 200X (Xbox 360)
Bad romance
It isn't every day that a Japanese-made title is released worldwide for either of the currently-available Xbox platforms. Shooting Love 200X came out of absolutely nowhere when it was released back in April for Xbox 360 and was very much a surprise release, especially when you consider that it was first published in Japan back in...
