Topic: Official Push Square Xbox Thread

@Tasuki That was yesterday am - there were loads of spam threads.
You'd been in here recently at the time so @ you.

Just so you know XBOX is also having a summer sale, some of the games on the PS4 sale are on there too and for the same price

@Fullbringlchigo They are also selling Gold cheap too. It is £26.50 for a year direct from MS, although you do need Gold to get it at that price.

@crippyd oh i didn't notice that, that's a pretty good offer

also sorry it took so long to get back but for some reason i'm not getting any notifications when people tag me in posts

@Fullbringlchigo no worries dude, I think it is in a separate sale but there was an article on True Achievements when the big sale was announced that said about the Gold deal. When I get paid this week I'm getting another year for sure. It's the cheapest I've seen it for a long time.

@KratosMD The Definitive edition makes some meaningful changes to the base game and adds a new area or two and is the best way to experience the game. I have both although I did get the upgrade for £3 (about 5 Euro) when it was first launched. I think, if you haven't played the game yet, that the newer version will be worth getting. Also play through both so you can experience the differences for yourself. Beware the Ginso Tree, that will destroy your controller!

That is certainly a better line-up than recent months. I already have FH2 but I don't have any of the others.

After the past couple of months, you have to say this is a 'great' line-up. 4 AAA games!!! OK so the titles themselves may not appeal to 'all' but you can't really argue about the 'quality'

FH2, the one that doesn't run at 4k on X, is still a great game and I much prefer the Horizon series - makes sense with 4 coming soon. For Honor sic (another FH game LOL) is not and never has been on my wanted list at all so not bothered about this - may add it just 'because'. Epic Mickey 2 isn't my thing either and I never bought DS3 after the reviews and demo - I couldn't bring myself to taint my opinion on one of my favourite series of last gen - so will definitely add that for 'free'.

Overall though, despite not necessarily all very appealing to me, I can't complain at the overall quality and value this month offers.

Awesome! Will get all of those bad boys!

Very nice.

So I am thinking of picking up a FPS on the Xbox One and since I already have CoD: WWII, Overwatch and Battlefield 1 on PS4, I was thinking of grabbing Titanfall 2 since it's part of the sale. Only thing is does anyone know how the player base is for this game? I don't want to buy it and then the servers be dead.

So MS wins this month for me with GWG on account that the one game that interests me on PS+ is Mafia III which I own already. Looking forward to playing FH2. Been wanting to.try that series out for awhile now.

One thing I hadn't realised until I let my Gold subscription lapse is that you don't retain access to GwG Xbox One games when not subscribed to Gold. You still retain access to GwG Xbox 360 games as you always did, but I hadn't realised that Microsoft had shifted to the same subscriber model as Sony. Still not convinced to go back to Gold, even with the offer of £26.50 for the year that they keep tempting me with on the dashboard. The last 11 years of Xbox were a blast, but PS interests me far more now.

When I got my XB1 I only bought a 3 month Gold subscription so took advantage of the sale and bought it for a year at £26. Boom.

It is a really good deal the £26 for a year. I got it a couple of weeks back through the dashboard when mine was about a couple of days off expiring.

@Kidfried I'm sorry, I haven't been keeping too much up to date other than there is more Xbox consoles coming. I'll be upgrading when they do come out and probably going all digital too. I've found that much more convenient this gen. If there is a base model and a premium model, I'll go premium as I think the X is great.
TBH, I'll stick with Xbox over PS as I find more of the games appeal to me on the more Western focused console. I'm a Halo/Forza type of guy.
Have you thought about it much?

@Kidfried what rumours about next gen?

So if anyone here is a fan of Stardew Valley, I high recommend Graveyard Keeper for the Xbox One (or PC). Its basically Stardew Valley but instead of a farm it's a graveyard. Super addictive too just like Stardew.

@Tasuki It’s also on the Game Pass for those that have subscribed to it.
