I found 7 games on my wishlist on sale yesterday. Bought 2 so far Road Redemption and Demolish and Build. Might also buy Steel rats & Aircraft Evolution
I always suspected that running a game in the background was slowing down my d/l . thankfully i got my ISP to increase my speed x 3 for only $2 more a month , so no issues any more
Been playing Fortnite again (Battle Lab) now they changed the map. Going to try and get a bunch of cars/trucks into the colossal coliseum and and blow them all up at the same time. Also been playing Untitled Goose game
It wasn't until Aug that Xbox fixed their backwards compatibility issue. Before then I wasn't able to d/l 360 or anything older. September was the best month as all 4 games were interesting
Looking forward to grabbing both today. Most likely will try The Raven then delete it. I have never play a Saints Row game before's but it looks like a heck of a lot fun.
I did notice though yesterday, isn't there supposed to be 4 games available and not just 3?
@AlexSora89 yeah Rare Replay slays. Best game pack I ever bought. I doubt I would be able to get my hands on a series X if I stood in line anywhere in Canada. Its Buy Nothing Day here anyways in Canada, so buying anything would go against my ethics.
Despite reading a book written by the founder of Sony Akio Morita about 20 years ago. I would never buy anything from Sony because of their bad reputation. Bill Gates on the other hand was a true genius and advanced the English language.
The Raven looks kinda boring, Saints Row i will try, Bleed 2 not into platformer games too much but will try it. Stacking on the other hard looks rather unique.
I seen Wailing Heights on sale today. Its been on wishlist for months , waiting for it to go on sale. Also Arcade Classics Anniversary Collection on sale 50% off. Love these old games
Planing to buy the X , but i had budgeted for an S. I notice that on some forums and blogs the new units being referred to as X/S , while some call it the S/X . I now beginning to think this could be a marketing ploy from MS, cause what do you automatically think of when you see S/X ?
Thanks for the thread. I always try the free play day games and over time doing so has exposed to game genres I would never try otherwise. I got Tekken 7 not much into fighting games but will try. Also gonna try Ark: Survival Evolved for the 2nd time. I tried the trial version years ago and didn't like control config. Overwatch Origins Edition I won't be getting it. I tried the demo and just not my kinda game.
Awesome list again Fraser. Found quite a few games to check out maybe add to my wishlist. I noticed before bed last night about 6 items on my wishlist came up for sale. I didn't see Two Point Hospital on the list, but i seen it listed at 50% off regular price. I also bought DLC the game. On my wishlist also for sale is Shotgun Farmers, battlefield 1943, Family Feud, Transformers battleground deluxe.
Big thx Fraser for posting this. I rarely pay full price any games so these lists are helpful. I already bought two of these games that were on my wish-list. KILLALLZOMBIES which for some reason the action button is delayed and bullets take time to launch. Also bought Tropico 4 for $2. I always wanted a building Sim game.
Both games turned out to be good. I was amazed by the Lego game. Wasn't expecting it to be as in depth. The other platformer game was okay, nothing special
I started looking for a 4k TV yesterday. Prices i see range from $700 to $2200. One problem i have is that the type of base, I require one with round base as opposed to one of the peg leg style stand. Otherwise it won't fit on my dresser .
I wonder if you can buy insurance for burning S/X units? I hope no ones house/apt/igloo catches on fire. But yeah I think I'll wait an few months before buying one after seeing this.
The Falconeer is 1/2 the reason why I want to upgrade to a series S/X . I am so happy that I will be able to still play it upon my old Xbox one. The other game I want to to play is MS Flight Sim 2020
I am happy I bought a Xbox instead of a Playstaion. Bill Gates should be entitled "the great Bill Gates" for his unexpected advancement of the English language worldwide. Sony on the other hand is huge supporter of the RIAA . Those folks that believe all music and art should be commercial. They would rat you out for downloading an image that you didn't pay for in advance.
Having Disney+ added to game pass could have unforeseen consequences for the future. Such as: Disney'fing everything that is ultra violent. Blurring out excessive blood and gore. Woke'tafing everything with warning messages about outdated theme's and stereotypes. Any images of sexy women or males , could be replaced with non binary , non gendered looking creatures ?
Thank you the author of article. Never heard of a HDMI 2.1 cable before reading this. Good thing I didn't get one the new S/X units yet. Sounds like I will need a new TV 1st.
I will be playing Grid and Dirt 2 and maybe PUBG. The racing games cause I got them as free trials and both take up too much space. PUBG cause I got it with "free play days" for the weekend. I tried it twice now and both times didn't do very well. Kinda reminds me of a cross between Fortnite and COD warzone, but crappy.
I still remember when they would release the 360 games on games with gold. But when I would try to get the game, it would give me a hassle about the price. I tried everything to fix the problem to no avail. Then about 6 months ago, Xbox fixed the issue and now I can buy the backwards compatible 360 games. Good move on their part because I ended buying about 20 360 games for my Xbox one. I found the 360 games way more fun then the ones offered for Xbox one.
I found games you can add to this list. Red Wings , Dynasty Warriors 9 , Code Vein , Hell Warders & 9 Monkeys of Shaolin, Everspace, Practise Music and Shiny.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (Nov 21st)
Playing flying and racing games. DCL the game ( good but to easy) & The drone racing league sim (very hard game to get used with the controls)
Re: Talking Point: What December 2020 Xbox Games With Gold Do You Want?
Maybe a sports themed game. Or strategy game. Less platformer and fighting games
Re: TIME Magazine Calls The Xbox Series S One Of The Best Inventions Of 2020

Re: Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (Nov 19-22)
Thanks for the thread. I always try the free play day games and over time doing so has exposed to game genres I would never try otherwise. I got Tekken 7 not much into fighting games but will try. Also gonna try Ark: Survival Evolved for the 2nd time. I tried the trial version years ago and didn't like control config. Overwatch Origins Edition I won't be getting it. I tried the demo and just not my kinda game.
Re: Xbox Series X 4K Blu-Ray Player Seemingly Cannot Output Black Colour Correctly
Hearing this doesn't surprise me. On my old Xbox one the Bluray player was super wonky. Eventually the disk component just stopped working completely.

Re: Two More Of November 2020's Xbox Games With Gold Are Now Available
Both games turned out to be good. I was amazed by the Lego game. Wasn't expecting it to be as in depth. The other platformer game was okay, nothing special

Re: Two More Of November 2020's Xbox Games With Gold Are Now Available
@Krzzystuff
yes after you d/l the game, just delete it and you can play it years from now.
Re: Two More Of November 2020's Xbox Games With Gold Are Now Available
Looking forward to trying Lego Indiana Jones. I have yet to play a Lego theme'd game so should be interesting.
Re: Microsoft Flight Simulator Was Greenlit Because Of Xbox Game Pass
That's terrible. I wonder if MS can patch that up, or will they have to recall every series X to fix the issue.
Re: These 15+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (Nov 17-20)
I seen the other day Family Feud listed in new games, this might be a good one
Re: Microsoft Flight Simulator Was Greenlit Because Of Xbox Game Pass
Getting MS flight sim is the no. 1 reason I want a Xbox series S/X . This is good news for me. Still worried that my unit will catch on fire.
Re: Viral Videos Appear To Show The Xbox Series X Emitting Smoke

Re: These 50+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (Nov 10-13)

Re: Poll: Are You Happy With November 2020's Xbox Games With Gold?
Yeah I love free, and 3 of them look decent
Re: Xbox Is Already Thinking About Backwards Compatibility Seven Years From Now
I still remember when they would release the 360 games on games with gold. But when I would try to get the game, it would give me a hassle about the price. I tried everything to fix the problem to no avail. Then about 6 months ago, Xbox fixed the issue and now I can buy the backwards compatible 360 games. Good move on their part because I ended buying about 20 360 games for my Xbox one. I found the 360 games way more fun then the ones offered for Xbox one.
Re: Here Are Your Xbox Games With Gold For November 2020
Love free games, will get 3 of them. Not interested in the plat-former games, but i might try it
Re: These 100+ Games All Have Free Trials On Xbox One
