MS store always have these crazy sales during the holidays from memorial day weekend and the fourth of July. Last year during memorial day, they had a buy 2 get one free sales for all XB1 and X360 games while some of the games are even like $20 to $30 off already and are stackable on the deal. I got 6 games from that deal for like a total of $120. Here is the whole thread of other gamers that got similar deals during last memorial day at the MS store.

Agreed Aussie,
Don't forget gems like Ori and Killer Instinct Season 3 could also be on the horizon. The monthly new character releases of KI season 2 leading up to the Story mode that just got released was nice as well as free Furious 7 stand alone DLC for Forza Horizon 2 and Halo ODST HD was also nice surprises.
Speaking of free, add in the BC capability, you instantly will have 100s of extra games to play on XB1 this year. Just awesome for XB1 owners. ...
For current releases, it is pretty much neck and neck as both sides have some great games from Forza Horizon 2, Halo MCC, Sunset Overdrive, Ori, and Dead Rising 3 on the XB1 side with TLOU HD, Bloodborne on the PS4 side. There are also duds like Ryse and The Orders 1886 on both sides too.
But for the rest of 2015 as a whole, it is like comparing movie releases. One comapany has Star Wars The Force Awaken (halo 5), Furious 7 (forza 6), and a new Indiana Jones (Tomb Raider) bei...
FALLOUT 4 is a third party opened world game and The Last Guardian is another Sony exclusive closed linear path game that are renowned by its graphics excellency. That is like comparing GTAV to the Order 1886. The Order, regardless of the length and gameplay, is truly next gen in terms of visual. THE last Guardian looks like a HD port of the PS3 trailer shown in what seems like a century ago.
An Apple to Orange comparison between an opened world Fallout 4 and TLG.

That is funny, on the same Amazon UK site, you can get up to £170.08 (about $270 USD) for trading in a XB1.

Simply law of supply and demand. Which means there are tons of people traded their PS4 in already; thus, the bargain bin price trade in value for...
Amazing package and price for an amazing system that will be BC soon. IT is essentially 2 Xboxes in one! Truly a bang for the bucks.
Not only did MS gave us MCC with all all the stuff and extra, this 30 game rare collection is like the deal of the century as far as gaming goes for $30. Well done MS and Rare! Will get this day one.
Shoot, if this is true, then essentially every PS4 and Nintendo consoles sold, MS gets a piece of the pie. I don't think this is true but if it is, it will be like MS providing software to Macs and Continue selling Minecraft to other platforms. Nothing will change much as it is not like MS all of a sudden will raise the cost of the GPU for PS4 or something.
But I got to LOL at some of the comments here. MS can literally give 1/2 their proceed of an Xbox sold to fight worl...
BC is awesome with gold now. Instead of having 2 free XB1 gold games per month, now you can add in 1-2 additional ones every month on a single platform. Great value and incentive to get x360 owners to migrate over to the One. Well played MS!
Hope part 1 and 2 comes to the XB1 via BC as I still have those on disc. Love the series but I don't want to pay another $40 for a bit better graphics on my PS4.
How can anyone not know Death was joking before me. LoL
But, with the install base of the VITA against the DS in Japan, it is going to be an uphill battle for anyone to dethroned Nintendo in a portable centric market.
Heck, even thw Wii U is first place on the home console front on most weeks there and console sales are really minor in Japan to make up for the dominance of preference of Portable gaming in Japan to make any difference regardless of who sold t...
Too little too late for me to care. There are too many games coming out, especially in the FPS, for me to care about the money scam over an overpriced DLCs. All Halo 5 future DLC maps are FREE and Bungie should take a page out of that.
LMAO. So like FF Versus, the FF7 remake game might take ages to come out. How in the world does this even happen? Do they really need him as a director when it is essentially a remake? I mean, KH3 is still like another two years away before release and it was announced over 2 years ago so how long a wait do we expect before we see FF7?
Agreed femcr. When MS show CGi, people and haters scream "Why no real gameplay" ? Aka Recore and Scalebound. When they actually show a short clip of some gameplay running with a live demo on actual engine "tease" for a game that is like 1 1/2 years away, they are being scrutinize once again. Jezz people.
But, somehow when other company show off a tease of games that claim they are running on "actual" engine, it is godlike around here but when act...
I don't see the point of posting Japan only game on a English/Western gaming site...this game is not going to be traslated or being released in the West so it doesn't even concern us as we won't be playing it. I would kill for a Vita translated version as it does looks interesting.
The spin is incredibly by Sony. A standalone VR system with its own hardware CPU could be justify as its own platform. Heck, the Virtual Boy is that platform as it doesn't need a Nintendo console to play games. PROJECT Morpheus NEEDS the PS4 to run the software to work. So like the Kinect and PS Eye, it is an peripheral, there is no other definition for it.
Awesome news for the best racer this year!
SpaceRanger,
Compare my posting history to yours, there should be no way you have so many bubbles still while I only have one. I do admit that I do post some negative stuff on PS articles but in no way do I do it as much as you...ie..like spinning negative in every MS articles. Your opinion means very little regarding Xbox because all you do is talk negative about it all the time. I at least do post positive PS news from time to time as I see fit.
BC is a gre...
Yup,I,have the same fear too. You can only keep visiting so many planets and collect resources so long before the repetitive nature and boredom comes in. I am still very interested in this game if the modding community of the PC can come up with some creative ideas like building a Star Wars Solar System and other amazing ideas. Modding can definitely extend the life and make things Interesting. Unfortunately, console(s) only players will not have this option. :(
Good point about the MS knowing what will be on the PS5 if this buyout is indeed true. Not only does that give MS an advantage If Sony decides to continue to use AMD for their next console, but if they decide to go with another chip manufacturer like Nvidia, it might set them back once again with true local BC and would give MS an advantage either way.
Great coup for MS if this is indeed true but it shouldn't have any affect on current business with Sony and Nintendo as t...
