Dead Rising 3 looks interesting, but it needs a next gen update looking at some of the reviews. Strange for a game costing £40 normally. Anyone played this on xsx ?
@GamingFan4Lyf You don't get any achievement when using mods. Although I'm more interested in the bug fixes. One of the DLC I gave up on completely, it felt like I was going from one bugged mission straight to the other.
@FarmDog08 I didn't get any achievements first time around because i used mods to get rid of most of the bugs! I wonder why no points since March, what has changed?
I downloaded FO4 again last night but will wait for the next gen update before i play again.
Does anyone know if the DLCs are getting the same treatment?
Being new to Diablo, playing solo campaign, i have to say I really enjoyed it. I picked the barbarian class and it reminded me of Titan Quest. ARPG. I completed the story, finished off most of the side missions, including seasonal stuff and then finally got bored. Anything after that seemed just to be levelling up just for the sake of it. I might see what's new in season 4.
Are they going to have separate/modified games for this? After trying to cloud play many games, I can say most text/UI is too small for a mobile screen.
I'll wait for a few updates to iron out some issues/bugs, but this is a game i'll eventually play. I'm lucky as my TV has VVR.
Does anyone know the type of difficulty i'll face, I gave up on Eldon Ring, too hard and wasn't fun.
@Tomato_Goose I stand corrected, maybe a fault of the mobile version for not pointing this out. So how do you use these unlocked items then? I might go back to the phone version during my lunch.
I tried getting in to P5 but found it very linear, maybe i just didn't get far enough in to it? In an age where you can simply turn off the console and carry on the next day, along with autosaves, I'd have got out of the habit of saving my games. I died and realised I'd have to redue the last 10+ hrs. I wasn't enjoying it enough to do that.
I have this on mobile, this game is not roguelite. Every new game you start from the same weak position. All you do is unlock new characters to start a new game with.
Anyone expecting this to get easier the more you play is in a for a disappointment.
I think it would be a good idea for people to be able to add their profile pic county of origin and also which console they use (360, S or X, etc). All optional infomation of course.
I read somewhere the jerkiness can be an issue with quick resume. After a while this seems to be true. Quit the game and restart fixes missing frames (for me anyway). Series X
@ZuneTattooGuy I never said it appeared to be anything. I thought when i heard there would be an new Prince of Persia game that it would end up being an open world type game.
I can image this can put you off gaming forever after losing 100's of hours of gameplay.
I can remember having a Dreamcast, the push in memory card corrupted a few game saves. I took the mem card out, took it to the spare bedroom I was doing up and put a big file through it with a hammer!
Deeply therapeutic at the time..
@themightyant I was avergaing 745 points a day, at the moment, this month, it's 635. Next month after i give up on Bing seraches I would think 500 ish/day. The crazy thing is getting 275 points a day for playing a PC game, not even the console. (I don't even play the game, I leave it running in another window)
This started yesterday in the UK for me. I do seem to be able to do 4 searchs though (for now).
Also you can't do mobile and PC at the same time, it's 15min wait how ever you search.
It now takes at least 3hrs+ to get all search points.
Nevermind the update, just fix the game braking bugs, specially the DLCs. I fear the new update would just introduce more bugs that the community has spend years fixing.
RDR2 is only 30fps, as much as everyone wants a 60fps patch, it doesn't need it because of the slow paced nature of that game. Pretty much game of the decade i would think also.

The list, Rayman Legends, doesn't appear to be on sale?

Re: Xbox Adds New 'Weekly Console Bonus' For Some Microsoft Rewards Users
@Fiendish-Beaver The new weekly console bonus? Or the monthly Quest Dedication?
Re: Xbox Adds New 'Weekly Console Bonus' For Some Microsoft Rewards Users
@FarmDog08 Thanks but that statement for more for the page designers to add, to me this info could be displayed underneath their profile picture.
Re: Xbox Adds New 'Weekly Console Bonus' For Some Microsoft Rewards Users
Can't see this in the UK yet.
I think it would be a good idea for people to be able to add their profile pic county of origin and also which console they use (360, S or X, etc).
All optional infomation of course.

Re: Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown Impresses The Critics Ahead Of January's Launch
I kind of thought this would end up open world, similar to Assassin's Creed, not a platform game. Lost my interest now.

Re: Turtle Beach's New Elite-Style Xbox Controller Seems Pretty Incredible
Looks good, extra buttons and wireless, but the screen is too much and pushes the price higher than i'm willing to pay.
£200!

Re: Xbox Reveals Full List Of 1000+ Games In The Black Friday Sale 2023
Cyberpunk 2077 - 40% - It was cheaper in the last sale.
Cyberpunk 2077 & Phantom Liberty - only 20% ?
I know it's new but kind of expected a bigger discount.
