I'm really contemplating if I should buy Titanfall digitally or physically. Mainly because I know its going to be my go to game for a while, so it would be easier to just say "Xbox go to Titanfall" rather than switching discs.


I was the same way.  I went physical just because i like cases though lol  But digital is much more convenient

Lol I like cases too. Which would have been perfect for me if I could choose to have the DRM on my Xbox. I have no problem with internet connection.

My problem with the DRM was ith neither of those reason.  It had some pros and cons.  

Pros

-Family Sharing
-Physical could be installed to hardrive like a digital game
-Could still resell your games (Though no use to me)

Con

-24 hour checkin.

I would have been fine with it if it was once a month or once a week but 24 hours is a little too extreme.  But yeah im always online so it wouldnt have effected me.

Dude imagine family sharing now, it would be such a plus! But yeah I understand the 24 hours thing.

Evolve Coming this Fall Pre-Order Bonus

2K Games has announced that Evolve, the next game from original Left 4 Dead creators Turtle Rock Studios, will be released fall 2014, alongside its preorder bonuses.

Anyone who preorders the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC shooter will receive the Monster Expansion Pack, which comes with a Savage Goliath skin and a new monster character that will be released after launch.

Evolve is an asymmetrical team shooter, powered by Crytek's CryEngine, which has four players compete from a first-person perspective as Hunters, squaring off against a fifth player, the Monster, who experiences the game in third-person. There are multiple Monsters to play as, each with various moves and specialities.

Take-Two, 2K Games' parent company, purchased Turtle Rock Studios from THQ for $10.8m at the start of 2013.

State of Decay devs locked into multiple game contract, good MS bringing more devs into the fold.

Ridley Scott?! Name really rings a bell, what were his recent movies?



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

I have high hopes for these guys

Too much talent in there for this not to be good.

Yeah I agree, it's whether it gets the sales MS are hoping for. I'm sure they'd be happy with a (6m) Gears level franchise tho.

IMO tho they need to expand Black Tusk to be working on 2 IPS (stand firm they're working on 1 IP, doesn't make sense they're working on 4, too much). Or build another studio. So that every September they have a big franchise releasing with a 3 year dev. Halo, Black Tusk, _______ rinse repeat.
