Forums - Gaming Discussion - Should I buy and Xbox One Part 2

So last time I was asking New 3DS vs Xbox One and the result was a resounding neither.
Well the Sunset Overdrive White Xbox One bundle just got a whole lot sweeter here in Australia. Still priced at $499, the standard price for a kinectless Xbox One it comes with a digital copy of Sunset Overdrive obviously tucked in their for free. Now EB Games are also offering a free copy of Forza Horizon 2 in the bundle too, same $499 price as before.

Last time I was asking I said I would only be using my XBO for what few exclusives I liked from MS, however thinking about it I could get so much more out of it for free. My brother owns an XBO already and will let me borrow any games he isnt playing. So any games I look at and think I will buy it at half price I could probably play for free. Still not sure I would be wiling to pay for Gold but maybe that will change when I have a full time job.

So do you think its worth the purchase?? Those 2 games should get me through the holidays and then I can borrow games from my bro like Dead Rising, The Evil Within, Mordor etc.

Having someone else who has the console is a definite advantage, especially someone who is close to you like a brother.
You can now take advantage of game sharing and split the cost of digital games, and be able to both pkay the same game at the same time.



White Xbox One is so sexy. You should definitively invest on it.

 

That being said, the games I'm mostly interested in of the X1 are cross-gen games, so the only interest I have on those is getting the superior version regarding 360-X1, like TEW, Forza Horizon 2 and such.

 

...well, and Dead Rising 3, of course :P

 

But since the MCC is almost upon us (and if you like Halo), plus Sunset Overdrive, you're getting good content for now, and worth a purchase.



White Xbone and controller are pretty much camouflaged from jizz. Definitely something to consider.

Xbone... the new "N" word   Apparently I troll MS now | Evidence | Evidence

Dead Rising 3
Killer Instinct
Forza Horizon 2

Those 3 games alone make it a worhtwhile purchase.

Theres already a tonne of great games on the X1.

And with MCC & SO just around the corner...... it's a cert.

If you or your brother buy a lot of digital content then one of you can share your account on the other console, buy everything through that account, and you both have access to everything at the same time, including XBL access. One person sets the others account as home on their own Xbox, the other guy sets his account to auto login on his actual Xbox, and bam you can both play all the content any time and so can anyone else using the consoles. Best sharing setup ever, mostly because it's so easy.



You know when your question about buying something has a part 2.......maybe you don't really want it.



I recommend getting one. If I could buy one again I would!



I think judging by your character(like personality) you should get it :)
enjoy

Well I would get one if I were you. But if you're only interested in a few games then I'd wait for its price to go lower.
