Yep played for couple of days with no problems....I maybe had 15 recruits, game crashed and then came back literally back where I had just made first recruit, not gone back since. Played Yakuza 0 from start to finish instead.
I have the stealth 600 from Xbox one days and whilst it does sync with the Series X there has been nothing but issues with it. Distorted audio sound unsyncing, headset disconnecting and mic not worker. Not sure what the issue is but seem as Turtle Beach have not updated it since launch I'm not holding out hope.
Thought I'd just drop in to say I'm now podcasting with Lapsed Gamer Radio, you find their blog over at www.lapsedgamer.com which is in it's infancy along with their twitter @lapsedgamer and their twitch.tv/lapsedgamer channel which has weekly content.
I'm gutted this isn't coming now. I would definitely have picked it up to help support Japanese games on Xbox. If Microsoft is ever to make any kind of inroads into the region they gotta start supporting these titles. I know during 360 they pumped money into the likes of Blue Dragon but there needs to be a more concerted effort with more niche titles.
I gotta say I've been playing this making slow but steady progress....I'm still getting used to the controls. Still yet to full understand why I'd use the kick? My tactics are roll and avoid at this point.
@KelticDevil aye certainly getting a work out scrolling through that. Basically wanted to write I'm on the same page as you as to what I'd be happy with. Id buy a slim model that has upgrade options.
I played a bit of the Tron Run trial....I know in my head it's not a great game but I feel compelled to buy it...why? why? WHY?!!!! (I think my love of all things tron is the reason)
@EternalDragonX Oceanhorn is fantastic! I played a tiny bit on PC but now I think I will rebuy on Xbox One when this hits! Close to a Zelda experience we otherwise wouldn't see.
Drawful 2 would be an instant buy BUT their last few standalone games have appeared in other packs. Quiplash which was a kickstarter was promised as a standalone game only to appear in Jackbox Party Pack 2 as Quiplash XL.
I can't be the only person who dislikes Podcast Unlocked and McCaffery's over indulgent "I've been here since the beginning" rhetoric. I rarely listen to it these days.
@A_BabyRed_Yoshi yep basically it's being implied that you could buy a base model which will last for x amount of time before it would require an update so to speak. Or you could pick up upgrades as and when, or you could buy new models over time with upgrades already present. It's going to be confusing for sure.
I gotta say though I want generations so to speak to end. I'd rather we have a path and I can upgrade when I want and have more options as to how I do it. No more overpriced bundles at launch with games I don't want would be great! If the Xbox One lasted for another couple of years and then I got a new box still running a Windows 10 based system and all my old stuff worked I don't see the problem. Multiple SKUs and such would allow gamers more choice and once your model becomes too old to run games there would be multiple options as you don't have to own the latest top of the line.
Wait the more I'm writing here....the more I realize this is a little bit like the 3DO....oh dear.
some of these changes are huge games changers. Being able to stream out chat audio via both streaming methods is great! Also appreciate Achievements right in the guide.
Yep there was only one instance of the time travelling being used for anything near a distant puzzle and then the action still fell flat as they didn't find enough opportunities to open things up to allow you to combine powers in an interesting way. Interesting to know the tech problems still exist with an SSD as well!
Got no issues with Hand of Fate as its a game I've been hoping would go on sale. Styx not really got much interest as I have both Thief and Dishonored sat in my backlog. No interest in either of the 360 titles due to indifference/already owning them I'll leave it up to you to decide which. Ryse's absence does surprise me still I've beat it so I'm frothing at the mouth like some people are but with the PC release having happened and the collectors edition or whatever it is also coming I can't see how hey are making more money from it in terms of sales. Unless its still a go to game for new Xbox One owners (but I also don't see that being a thing)
Looks cool I'll pick it up just because its something different and want to show support so we get more Japanese games! I'm still waiting for the Hong Kong version of Psycho Pass with English subtitles!

I never got into the first game but the second one was fantastic graphically for its time as it used the expansion pack.

Re: Is Microsoft Looking To Break The Console Cycle?
@A_BabyRed_Yoshi yep basically it's being implied that you could buy a base model which will last for x amount of time before it would require an update so to speak.

@fullyilly yep I'm pretty pumped to be honest!
Re: Is Microsoft Looking To Break The Console Cycle?
I gotta say though I want generations so to speak to end. I'd rather we have a path and I can upgrade when I want and have more options as to how I do it.
