Xbox one .... Ouch !

[Narcisus]

Just bought myself an Xbox One ! How the bloody hell did that happen !

Well the price finally passed my take note threshold.

£199 at Argos

Extra white controller worth £47 ? Didn't know they did white will it be a third party one ?

Quantum Break. What's this ? Sounds like a futuristic Snooker game ....

£10 Argos voucher which I've put towards a pair of 600 powerline plugs to replace my old 200's.

Whatever Quidco track.... If they do...

So.... What decent dirt cheap games are their out their ....

Criteria.... No more than £1.99 and must have scored at least 9.5 on ign / Gsmespot etc ... :-)

Already picked up on cdkeys one of the Assasins Creed games that was actually 1.99 ! Plus the Halo edition with all the games for a fiver.

Will pick Forza up from Game when I collect the console. Oh does it come with any Gold time ?

I've never been much of gamer, but last year picked up an xbox 360 just to try out GTA 5. At the same time I also got a few second-hand games to try out, one was Fallout New Vegas which I'd never even heard of before.

Long story short... I played GTA5 for about 20 minutes, and Fallout New Vegas for about 48 years. And replaced the console with an Xbox One and Fallout 4 as soon as that came out, and have now spent a further 65 years of in-game time in Fallout 4.

So get Fallout 4.

If you go for Xbox Live you get free games every month. Some months they're a bit rubbish but about every other month there's something worthwhile.

Titanfall is a great game and the deluxe edition is dirt cheap. Still plenty of people playing online daily. Division is half price and doom can be had for £25. That will all tied you over until battlefield 1 and gears 4 comes out.

Thanks guys. Other things.... I'm a pc gamer. Been playing Fallout 4 on pic since launch :-)

Not into multiplayer.....

This to to replace my old 360's. Guess am looking at gams that don't play so well on Pc or Xbox exclusives.

Don't waste any money on The Division, it ends up being beyond crap

Always fancied Sunset Overdrive on XBox One (an exclusive) but never quite enough to go and buy the actual machine

Anyone playing Elite on Xbox ? How's it fare compared to pc and with a joypad ?

Would I miss my HOTAS too much ?

Playing (not very successfully).
I think the controls work, but I suspect you'd hate it compared to a proper stick.

The irony of streaming elite from the XBone to the PC downstairs on the big telly is not lost on me.

Mmm.. Just had a scan and appears you can carry your account over.... Wouldn't want to start that again !

Is it possible to stream games from my main pic upstairs to the Xbox ? That would be amazing !

Xbox to PC yes. Other way around, don't think so.
