It's worth it IMHO but depends on your circumstances.

FH2 is a very good game and F5 is ok (a very solid and fancier version of 4). If you love racing wheels just do some researchelp as your old one won't be compatible, and new ones are pricey!

Is the new COD game out on 360?

If you're going to get one, and have gold, make sure you "buy" the free xbox one games each month. That will give you a tidy collection of smaller games.

I've umm'd and ahh'd about xbox one.

figured that most of the games I play are driving, space and FPS. Built a gaming pc instead. didn't cost me much more a I had a few nice parts lying around (SSD, ram and PSU).

I now have something spectacular in comparison to a console - especially as there aren't many games out for the One yet......
I bought an XB1, Loved it.

Then I built a Gaming PC and havent played a game on it since november..... oops.

In all honesty, no. I'd wait til near the end of the year where the games list MAY be a bit more.... exciting. And the price will have dropped another 50 or so pounds. At the moment you will probably find a couple of games that will keep your attention.

The free games on the 360 are more than likely to keep your attention for that period..The one game you get a month on the One would struggle to keep your attention for a couple of hours.

I'm thinking about selling mine(bought it 2nd hand with Fifa 14 which I traded in for BF4, but think I would struggle to get what I paid for it. Certainly do not want to lose any on it

I have the same dilemma, and randomly, the only games I play are GTA, COD & Forza.
I havnt made the swap as it refuses to break.
Only reason I might swap would be the Halo Masterchef Collection...
Oh and HDMI.
My xBox 360 has HDMI and it's a little black unit, very smart. Only bought it a few months back after a mate who'd upgraded to an xBox One told me not to waste my money.

Half the price and the games are cheaper. Looked at a few video comparisons of the newer games available on both and the slightly better graphics of the One are just not worth the bigger expense.

Just my 2p and I'm old.

The only reason I can think of wanting to upgrade is for Forza 5.

Also, some games that are released on 360 and One don't have all the features on the 360. For example, Forza Horizon 2.
I wouldn't bother buying an Xb1 for Forza 5, its a terrible game.
This.

Wait and see what Project cars comes out like and then Forza 6, speaking honestly I (not a fanboi and speaking from experiance) think the better option for current gen right now is the PS4.

If Forza 6 is back to how good the earlier ones were I'll prob be getting a X1 for it.
