I’ve heard that once you plug it in it conflicts with your external drive? Anyone know for sure? I need one bad though but if it affects my 4TB external drive it won’t help me lol.
That’s not really a big deal is it? As long as they don’t KILL the rewards altogether. Every 2-3 months I cash in on a $25 gift card that I use to buy more digital games.
Played the heck out of Dragonfire as a kid. I’d like to see some classic C64 games from Activision like Toy Bizarre and Park Patrol added. Also Dreadnaught Factor & Zone Ranger were good games on the 5200. Keep em coming!
@Nic-Noc20th-C good point I’ve been saying it for years! Say what you want about Nintendo’s store but on the game page you’re viewing, all you have to do is click on the publishers name and you see every game that publisher offers! And sometimes you might even catch a few sales this way. Neither Xbox or PlayStation far as I know have this feature which surprises me.
Does anyone know why we can only go so far back to view much older Xbox One games? That’s another filter we need badly. “New to Old” & “Old to New” because unless much older games back to 2015 for example, are on sale, you simply can’t scroll down to them to see them in chronological order. PlayStation lets you flip it either way with no problem. 🤷♂️
I do all my movie purchases on Apple- then thru Movies Anywhere, my purchases appear on my Xbox console, prime, Vudu etc. Except for those studios who don’t participate. Damn you Lionsgate and Paramount!! lol
Idk the game just doesn’t look appealing to me. Not what I’d imagine a John Wick game to be. I’ve seen it for $2.00 on sale in the past and I still didn’t bite. Oh well plenty of other games to play!
Good news but I wish we can get a sneak peek at what’s coming next! There’s a ton of classic Amiga & C64 games I’d love to see hit like Ghostbusters, Toy Bizarre & Park Patrol. On the Atari 5200, there’s Zone Ranger & Dreadnaught Factor. From Intellivision I’d like to revisit Worm Whomper! More Imagic games too!
It would be nice if they can fix the rewards page! They keep resetting my streak after 178 days when I’m on it daily and I keep doing stuff over and over again because the points are not being credited to my account! 😡 it’s happened before and I feel like it’s on purpose!
Not too bad - a bit laggy yea but at least finally the Activision 2600 library comes to a modern console first time since PS2! Willy Beamish is a nice surprise too as I’m a fan from the SEGA CD port! But there’s a ton more they can add here; like the 8-bit or 5200/Colecovision versions of some of these games and exclusives like 5200 Zone Ranger, Zenji and Dreadnaught Factor, Worm Whomper from Intellivision, Toy Bizarre and Park Patrol from the C64, Gee Bee Air Rally from Amiga and much much more! Let’s hope they have access to these titles and they will get added!! For the record, I HATE streaming ANYTHING! Music, movies and video games!! But I guess we have no choice here. 🙄
NO WAY! The Sega CD Willie Beamish is in here! Really enjoyed this back in the day! Intro soundtrack is amazing!! 🤩
First Nintendo killing gold points! Then I noticed over the past year or so Microsoft has become very cheap with their points be it doing the exercises and making game purchases. I used to average a $25 gift card every 2 months- now even with the same activity, I haven’t redeemed one since October- close but not yet. Less points being awarded for game purchases for certain! Boooo!
I love the Xbox store- Except that unless I come across them in a sale, I can never find the older games from 2014-2018 etc. When I go into “‘New Games” it only goes so far back plus you can’t even flip it to “oldest to newest” games like you can with PlayStation. Weird and annoying.
Does anyone know how to browse through older Xbox games on the console itself?? When you go in to view new games and scroll down it only goes so far. Aside from finding the older games when they’re on sale, I can’t figure out how to view them chronologically back to 2014 when Xbox One first launched. Even on PS5 you can filter it to “oldest to newest” and all the older games are there to view in date order. Idk lol What am I missing here? 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Well! I guess I’m buying the PS5 and switch physical copies! Surprised about no ps4 physical version though.Meanwhile Virtua Fighter 2 is getting a physical release on Xbox but not PS4,Switch etc?? Go figure.
I just hope Sega is crafting a new collection that’s gonna blow our minds!! Adding some Master System, Saturn and Dreamcast games in the mix would be AWESOME!!! It could easily be a 100+ game collection!
I’m a little confused why the robot white all digital version is being called a Series X? I always thought series X was= physical and S = digital only? Unless I’m missing something? The 2TB X does have my interest I’ll admit. It’s also annoying how Microsoft continues to push digital only consoles at us all while trying to shove Bing up our butts every 3 minutes!! 🙄 just like Big Bill wants us to stop eating REAL burgers!!
What a shame BF3 is my all time fave but BF4 is a close second so at least that’ll keep rolling along for a while 👍
BF3 remastered would be sweet though!
Believe it or not the thing that baffles me most is the classic arcade games Hamster only releases on PlayStation and Switch. I don’t understand why Xbox has been limited to the Neo Geo library! 🤷♂️
I’m at a loss as to the series x all digital model? Isn’t that going to confuse some folks if no disc drive?? We’ve known all along series S means digital 🤷♂️
Meanwhile I’m going to hold off and pick up my Atari 7800+ first LOL 😆
So long 360! Thanks for all the games! Sad day for sure but I take comfort in my 800+ digital purchases and 650 physical games I own for 360 and the original Xbox game discs it still plays! I’ll wager that the ps3 store will be next.
I’m still baffled how certain Sega games like Crazy Taxi 3, Afterburner and Space Channel 5 did not make the backwards compatibility's list. Very strange. Either way the closure of this 360 store is mainly why digital purchases is bad in my opinion. It will interesting to see how things look once we boot up the 360 after the store is closed.
After seeing what’s happening with the 360 store shutting down this month I'm not so sure if the lifetime membership fee makes any sense?? I’m on the fence here. 🤷♂️ Plus they really haven’t added a lot of games since launch.
I’ve grabbed a bunch of games lately since the sale started. Still have a few more to pick off. I hooked up a 2TB external drive as well and went back and grabbed most of my downloads so I’m pretty stocked now lol. 😆 I forgot 1/2 the games I even bought over the last 20 years running! Such a shame!
Well Blood Drive has been $50 forever so I might have to nab that one finally! The June 18 sales are still not all updated completely yet! I want Fight Night for $2! Still shows at $20!
A lot of strange going’s on as we near the end. I bought Sega Soccer Slam on my 360 but the game doesn’t appear in my library to download on my series X. On the flip side I bought Crimson Skies on my series X but on my 360 it wants me to buy it again?? Weird Also many 360 games STILL have not been updated to the sale prices mentioned on this site last week. 🤷♂️🤷♂️
@Decimateh what’s strange is I can see Orange for purchase on my One but not on 360. Demo only. Meanwhile I bought both Dishwasher games on my 360 but I don’t believe they are BC with One/Series XS. 🤷♂️
Screwed again just like the Wii. This proves once again how digital purchases can be bad. Guess I’ll have to browse the 360 store to double check any games I want to grab before the cut off. Any digital games I buy I wait till they’re super cheap but physical games is still king! I still jump in my car & go to GameStop 2 or 3 times a month (or Best Buy) to buy physical games. Now that Sony is seeing this I’m sure ps3 store is not far behind as they already tried once and took a lot of heat for it and backed off.
GameStop executives probably nervous about this. I am forever physical unless it’s only available digitally. Kudos to Limited Run and Strictly Limited and others for keeping physical games going! 👍
Anyone know what the deal is with the Microsoft rewards page? Functions, puzzles games and questions I completed not adding to my points total and I can’t get my day streak going again! So annoying! On a side note they got real cheap with the points being awarded!!
@RentedPanda
I want it!!! Day one purchase! And I think you’d be surprised how many gamers like you and I would agree and would sell better than you realize! Lol see my above post. 👍
Believe it or not I’d LOVE to see the entire Activision 2600, 5200, Intellivision, Colecovision & 8 bit computer library drop! Many many timeless classics within!
The search engine can use an update. I still can’t see all 1400+ games at once to scroll through. We should also be able to filter from A-Z, Z-A, New to Old, Old to New and by each console or Platform. Also Colecovision, Intellivision, Sega Master System and Turbographx-16 would be nice additions! Thx
