Uploading a video with excessive swearing will get you banned confirmed by MS.

I wonder if any more GTA's will be hitting the XB, seems pointless.

Story made CNN, yanks won't be happy as they love their freedom

You could just maybe not upload videos from a game with lots of swearing? O_o

Besides, its just a temporary ban on using certain apps

It's more a question of double standards whilst playing something like GTA5.

Surprised that it made CNN, bad PR

How is it double standards? Live is accessible by kids, GTA shouldn't be.

Hey guys. Picking up my Xbox one on the 6th. Won't have to much money left so can only afford one game. What would you think would be the best to get now ? This will have to do for a month or two until I can afford another one.

1. Battlefield 4
2. Killer Instinct - it's free (and awesome)

Well "free" to a certain extent. Free for 1 character & 1 stage and no achievements, but I guess that would do for people who have any interest in the game whatsoever :P

You also get Xbox Fitness free too with the option to purchase advanced workouts and you can also get Kinect Sports Rivals Preseason free.

Then you can always download the FIFA14 and NBA Live 14 demo's too.

Just to clarify, yes it's only one character (which rotates to a new character each week), but you also get one of the most thorough tutorial systems I have ever seen and survival mode. You can also play the character online. All for free, and you can but other characters for a fiver. I upgraded to the 20 euro pack and got all 6 characters and will get 2 new ones in 2014. Great deal.

Indeed it is a great deal for people who like the game

Why can't there be more games I'd enjoy for that price

I also think Zoo Tycoon should be only like €20. Mainly because I want it

Wish I could get past tiger fury in the tutorial. Spent twenty minutes trying to get it. Z my bollocks.

I too spent 20minutes on this before luckily managing to get it 3 times.
then on next tutorial where it does shadow or something it asks for you to do it again so I quit to the home screen.

For some reason that Z movement was next to impossible for me, however in the end using the thumbstick instead of d pad I managed to get it by chance id say

Forget about the 'Z' talk. It is the same as the uppercut thing Ryu has in street fighter.

Forward, Down, Down-Forward. Easy enough once you ignore trying to draw a 'Z'!

And I say this as someone who is TERRIBLE at fighting games. TERRIBLE.

Memories of PC version as a kid

While I don't have Zoo Tycoon or an Xbox for that matter... that game really makes me want to see another Jurassic Park: Genesis game.

Someone make it happen.

WOW! I was thinking the exact same thing at that moment. I used to sit at my old Dell Optiplex playing JP while listening to either The Verve, The Phonics, Phantom of the Opera or The Woman in White.

Now that brings back memories!!

A slightly more ghetto way of getting your turtle beach headset to work with xbox one.

I reckon I'll give it a go at the weekend, the free headset hurts my head anyway so I'm not using it at the moment. I'll probably go the marginally more technical route and try and solder in a jack plug. I'll keep ye posted on my epic win / fail. :pac:

Yeah, thats a bit of a balls alright, I reckon that'll be one of the first things they sort in a firmware update though. I havent event connected my headset using the digital optical cable yet, Its just plugged into the stereo out on the tv, and I'm using the mic from the communicator headset by placing it around my neck.

Theres a video here showing in great detail how to do it.

Would agree here. I think there will be a fireware update in the next month adding more and more features.

Yep. Rather pathetic offerings this month.
