I'm still hoping we see ori at retail at a later date. Kind of surprised they didn't at launch to be honest. Game is 4 years in development, 10+ hours, and looks the same quality as Mario+Rayman

I personally think it's a business decision to be download only. almost everyone who will have downloaded the game will have paid full price, no second hand/rentals.  I think this ensures the most profit for a $20 game. Plus it so advertised on the front page of the XB1 and I'm sure everyone looks at the store.

I rarely go there. Anything on the right past the GS league.. cause I don't use TV stuff.

Personally I check the store once a week so I can compare the sales of digital new releases in the bestselling section of the store. 

I can see myself checking the bestseller list, if some game I care about comes out. So not that often :P

I wonder when press play will announce the next game, they hinted at releasing one game per year when Kalimba came out.

I'm interested in that one.

Yeah, hopefully Type-0 HD will be the 2nd biggest new release the week it releases. It's going up against Battlefield Hardline, so I doubt that it'll be #1, but with some luck it might top the new episode of Resident Evil Revelations 2 and Minecraft (which is consistently high on the bestsellers list.

Yup, I will be checking that one for sure.

What could go wrong us 6 friends not coming and only 2 are left in a sea of bitterness that seems to flow endlessly as they desperately try to swim their weakening bodies to the shore 

You need to get over that bud  

Not a Minecraft fan, but would be a good signup. 

Yeah I'm just messing around xD I had a lot of fun with smr and everyone had proper excuses so I don't really mind xD. I would join this but I don't have minecraft and I don't ever plan on getting it

Tales From The Borderlands ep 2 is coming the week of March 17th. That is going to be one busy week, Battlefield: Hardline, Type-0 HD, Resident Evil Revelations ep 4, Bladestorm: Nightmare, and Woolfe: The Red Hood Diaries are also releasing the week of the 17th.

Good week indeed, type 0 being day 1, Bladestorm to my ''to buy when 10€ list''... never heard of that woolfe but looks good.. reminds me of alice.

Telltale needs to get their shit together. 3 months between episodes is totally unacceptable

Dragon Age Inquisition might be coming to EA Access next -

Hmm, I would have expected FIFA first since it released before DA: I.

Fifa must be selling better than DA.

Yeah, they took on way too much work imo. They're currently developing Tales From the Borderlands, Game of Thrones, Minecraft Story Mode, and 2 new unnannounced projects. Wouldn't surprise me if they also had another season of The Walking Dead in development as well. Telltale only has 240 developers last I heard, they're taking on way too much work at once. 

That's what's worrying, they seem to be taking on ever more work, insteadof realising that it's clearly preventing them from delivering in a timely fashion. Nobody wants to have 5-6 episodes of something stretched out over half a year or longer. If they keep this up they're gonna lose a lot of fans and/or money because everyone will just buy all their games late at huge discounts
