This one is tough. Part of me wonders if I can wait because all of the first party lineup will work on Xb1. BUT I don’t really want to play those games on my og Xbox One either because of load times or what I’d lose.
@Richnj that’s a great deal! Love when you can get way more with the bundle. The AC bundles are great for that too. The Journey Fifa bundle is similarly discounted to a ridiculous level ($10 for three years of Fifa). I’m deciding between Far Cry New Dawn and Primal...
Definitely far cry... I liked Odyssey and Origins, though AC games may be getting too epic for me. Watch Dogs looks cool, but I want to play through 2 first...
Think it’s fine. Smart delivery is gamer-friendly and it makes sense to emphasize that games you buy here will be upgraded at no cost on the console. I also hope it’s a sticker on the wrapping and not the box art itself.
Interesting to see the negative views. I’d heard this game was charming with a unique battle system, but slow. I was interested when it was revealed, but there’s too much on my backlog to give it a shot.
@KelticDevil maybe. I’m guessing it’s an arcadey thing and probably more multiplayer focused. I don’t mind a short campaign if it’s really good - but also don’t pay $60 for call of duty for that reason and prefer to wait until prices go down even though I play those for the campaigns only. $40 might make me a day one buyer.
I picked up Titanfall 2 for $5. Anyone who doesn’t get Far Cry 4 at $7 or Sunset Overdrive at $5 that hasn’t played them is out of their mind. The Fifa journey pack is a great deal too - I think I got that for Black Friday or a summer sale last year, and it’s a great way to get three Fifa games for the price of half of one if you don’t buy every year.
Co-Funded Nintendo IP coming to Switch and Xbox - Eternal Darkness 2? It would have to be something that would need two platforms to make sense and be a crowd pleaser.
Out of nowhere IP that needs a game (Saga with Brian K Vaughan writing, Spawn Diablo-like, Kotor 3, Burnout and Fast and Furious crossover, Jack Ryan... I really want to be surprised!)

Re: NBA 2K21 Launches In September, Won't Support Smart Delivery On Xbox Series X
Kind of surprising they wouldn’t want to keep people in the ecosystem through an upgrade to keep selling to them.

Re: Star Wars: Squadrons Flies Onto Xbox One In October, Watch The Trailer
If this harkens back to the og x-wing, tie fighter and x-wing v tie fighter games, I’M IN.
Re: Reminder: The Massive Xbox Deals Unlocked Sale Ends Soon
@IronMan30 I’m thinking about getting RE6. But is it worth it at $8? I’m between that, Far Cry Primal at $10 and Darksiders War and Death for $16.

Re: Reminder: The Massive Xbox Deals Unlocked Sale Ends Soon
@John_Deacon if you have never played it, it’s a very solid 80 hours of well written AC content, not including AC3, which is also very good
Re: Rumour: July's Xbox Series X Event Will 'Absolutely Bring The Heat'
@MAC26 and just confirmed. The IP is now Sony’s. So like - extremely unlikely for that one.
Re: Rumour: July's Xbox Series X Event Will 'Absolutely Bring The Heat'
@MAC26 yeah. I don’t think Insomniac would be able to make it. But do they own the IP and Assets? That’s why I put it as really unlikely

Very Unlikely, but man I would lose it if:

If Microsoft picked up the new Batman and made it an Xbox exclusive to counter-program against Spider-man, that would be AMAZING.
