Shack News: "If Twisted Pixel's announcement of LocoCycle as an Xbox One launch title sounded sudden, that's because it hasn't been in development for very long. Originally created for Xbox 360, the next-gen version of LocoCycle has only had a development cycle (no pun intended) of about six months, meaning it won't utilize all of the Xbox One's exclusive features."
GameZone's Matt Liebl: "Last week, we celebrated the PlayStation 4’s first birthday by listing the best and the worst games of its first year. Seeing as how today marks the one year anniversary of the Xbox One’s release, I think it only fair to do the same with Microsoft’s console. So happy first birthday, Xbox One, these were the worst games of your first year."

im pretty sure a lot of people enjoyed driveclub killzone and knack too but theyre bad games and thats that
ryse absolutely deserves to be on it
Exactly, enjoying something doesn't mean it's good, only that you like it. Some people enjoy Lil Wayne's music, but he's a pretty crap rapper.
Personally, i love Driveclub, i think it's one of the best racing games out there, same goes for Shadowfall, a very good FPS with amazing graphics, Knack was ok, not brilliant but OK, more of a technical demonstration than a game.
It was as linear and repetitive button mashing as can be. Originally set to be a Kinect game- for Xbox360.
Visually it was pretty - great art design - which only makes it feel more of a missed opportunity.
As a launch game goes, though, I'd give it up to 7/10 and if visuals are weighted more heavily, up to 8/10.
I can't say fairer than that.
Personally I though Max and Ryse were at worst average games, but certainly not bad. However Fighter Within deserves some kind of award for being the first truly all around crap game of the new generation.
Only played Max on that list and it was quite enjoyable. Not the best game ever, but definitely quite fun.
I wouldn't play the rest though. Just not my kind of games.

Just finished 1000G on Child Of Light, brilliant game but takes a while to get going, well worth £8
I love being a cheap f^ck who waits to buy games until they go on sale! Now to sit back on my unicorn skinned sofa with my servant and play games on my 150" TV while drinking Cristal from the Holy Grail signed by Harrison Ford.
Resident Evil 4, $4.99.....woo hoo!
Id get Family Guy if I hasn't already 1k'd it.
Found that game surprisingly fun, and actually quite hard to find in store now - especially at a good price.
Warframe is also free right now,you can find it in the new released section
of games ,that is xbox one
I never played it, so don't knw, dwnloading it now,heard is only multiplayer tough
Thanks for the response. I started downloading it this morning before heading out to work. Will try it later on.
It's a free to play game, so expect it to remain free for the foreseeable future.
The currency is less free of course.
The Indie Gala Every Monday bundle just got a major-name game pretty quickly after release for a mere $2. For two dollars, you can get LocoCycle, Metal Drift, Ignite, Collateral, Zero Gear, and Race Injection.
Here's an idea: Why don't you give me half the money your were gonna to spend on LocoCycle, then we'll go out back, I'll kick you in the nuts, and we'll call it a day!
So how long has was the 360 version in development?
Looks like a fun title. We need some arcade launch games. This fits the bill nicely. Want to see at least 4 more good ones.
is it a arcade game or full fledged 60 buck retail game?
I still don't get this game. A guy being dragged by a transforming motorcycle the entire time. I am all for ridiculous ideas but really, what is this?
I think some developers are really crossing the line between fun and just completely stupid.
horrible game
