Another free to play one out today, APB Reloaded. Looks like GTA online with MMO elements.

"Worst game on the Xbox One", according to Eurogamer. This video is hilarious - the game looks and plays terrible and is riddled with bugs.

Yup I just downloaded it through the Xbox website on my phone because the new dashboard is a bit glitchy at the moment

This is out now for xbox and it's under €10 from some foreign stores, think I'll pick it up today, seems like a nice chillaxing fun game

Has anybody tried TMNT mutants in Manhattan yet ?
Is it worth buying ?
I loved the turtles back in the day so I'm thinking it might be worth a purchase

Not only will you get a free copy Gears of War 4 for Windows 10 but you'll also get all previous 360 Gears free:

Yeah, at this stage I expect codes for all the Gears games to fall out of my cornflakes box every morning.

Most of them have been GwG, they also came free with GoW: Ultimate Edition.

They were all GWG at some stage as well as free with Gears Ultimate Edition.

Still cool tho

Edit: Boom, someone got in there before me for a change

wotzgoingon

It was for getting the ultimate edition.
It is still cool though for those who don't have them.

I will be buying the new gears day one and it is also cool to get it free on PC.

Lost Odyssey & Blue Dragon are both set for backwards compatibility in the near future.

“Spencer calls out the 360-exclusive Japanese role-playing games Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey as his most-wanted games, and says the team is working on getting them running on Xbox One as we speak — and those backward compatible games, too, will work on Scorpio.”

One thing I am surprised on is the lack of either a Games with Gold special (I thought practically everyone got Limbo pretty much free when it first released) or lack of a big BC title

Thought the presentations so far were a little flat to be honest, I think too much was leaked beforehand, I think last night on xbox daily was the first time i saw the Xbox folk look surprised when Frank West posed with them for selfies

There was talk of Dragon Age 2 , Fight Night and some other EA titles coming to BC during E3 a few weeks ago.

Yeah, that was pretty funny. AceyBongos didn't know what was going on lol.

I was disappointed with last nights Daily show. I was hoping they'd announce some more B.C games. Maybe tonight :cool:

The game we've all been waiting for!

I really like where this is going. Farming Simulator 17 will also have MOD support when launched: http://www.windowscentral.com/farming-simulator-17-xbox-one-will-support-mods-created-pc

So that's Fallout 4, Skyrim: Remastered & Farming Simulator 17 so far is it?

Jordan 199

I wouldn't mind giving Farming Simulator a go. Would love to take a John Deere tractor for a spin.

If my father in law heard I got a Farming Simulator, he'd expect me to help out around the farm.

As it is, I play extremely dumb when it comes to farming: "Jaysus, that's a big sheep!"; "That's a cow, Catinabox"

Looks a bit like Ark but with Zombies

erkifino

Not that I sit around gaming with mates these days, but the split screen is welcome.

Rorok

Reminds me of the long dark game that was on the preview programme, with zombies and more to do

GottaGetGatt

Looks good.

€35 is too much though for a 4 player co-op game when you look at it vs Ark

Just finished it the other day, all achievements bar 2 (curse the 1 where you need to finish the game in 1 sitting with 5 lives or less)

Then the other achievement I didn't get was for collecting all the eggs throughtout the game then going back to a previous chapter where you can access a secredt level, even tho I collected all eggs the secret level didn't open for me which sucks.

My guess is after I collected an egg then died, I didn't go re-collect it again for that specific area even tho I got the relevant achievement.

Just hope inside doesn't have one of those timed and limited death ones too, I know it has one for the collectibles and secret area.


Picked up Lego The Force Awakens today, and it's brill !!!!!!!! They've added a few new mechanics to make the gameplay a bit fresher. It looks like a lego any other game but the sound is amazing on it !!!!

Was tempted until I read some of the reviews. Worst thing that stood out to me in them was the combat and cheap deaths, it's like arkman games without the on screen prompts so you could be fighting away and have no idea that an ememy off screen is about to shoot and one shot you. They also mentioned the enemies were too powerful and the player character too weak.

Another one was there was no limit to the number that could engage you at once so you just end up being swarmed and killed very easily.
