Games I've bought this year -

Xbox One -
Final Fantasy Type 0
Sunset Overdrive (Was actually a present from a friend)
Ori and the Blind Forest

Xbox 360 -
Battlefield 3
Banjo-Kazooie

Nintendo 3DS -
Fire Emblem Awakening

PS1 -
Final Fantasy Origins

I am eyeing off FFT0. But right now time is not on my side and I have too much to play.

I did just download Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie (bought the bundle about two years ago and forgot about it).

I loved BJ on N64 and never played BT - so I am going to try to hack through both of them soon!

I really don't mind if MS starts doing more of these F2P games like Project Spark, Fable Legends and this new Halo thing. These kind of games fit the PC. Then they can port over certain games that aren't big system sellers like Forza and even Halo MCC (It's not gonna do much more for the Xbox One at this point) but keep their big guns exclusive to the Xbox One at least for a few years. Things like Halo 5, next Gears of War, Sunset Overdrive and so on.

Forza is more of a big gun than Sunset though.

I wouldn't mind if MS put all their IPs on PC. I love consoles, controller and a big screen TV.

I play sometimes with bunch of friends on the couch and we don't care about PC or whatever is going on in that scene. Like most gamers, unless they're engaged on internet arguments.



Games I've bought this year................ none

Man, the install speeds on XB1 really are atrocious. Borderlands: TPS is only 10 GB and yet I'm nearly an hour into the install and only at 47%. I could download the digital version of the game faster than that with my connection! The sooner MS fixes that issue, the better.

The time that Sr4 installed properly, it installed in like 40 minutes and it's 12gb.weird 



Ltd predictions by the time 9th Gen comes out

Ps4:110million

Xbox one :75 million( was 65) 

Wii u: 20 milliion

Games I bought this year:
FF Type Zero, Life is Strange.
I honestly cant remember much

Wow, it only took MS a year to get Voice messages on Xbox One . All these updates kind of go to show how much of a step backwards the Xbox One was from 360.

a lot of these updates are featres the xbox 360 didnt have, so its not too bad. and i wonder if its because they rushed to cancel the drm while releasing it at the same time as orignally planed

Forza sells more than Sunset but I feel like there is more potential to turn Sunset into a successful franchise down the line. There are a lot of people eyeing Sunset Overdrive but simply don't feel the Xbox One is worth it yet or they are holding out hoping it makes it's way to PC.

I'm not too concerned about what other fanbases think about Xbox IPs making their way to PC but I am concerned that this whole thing can make owning an Xbox One obsolete. I like consoles, I prefer them over PC but how long will the Xbox One last if eventually all it's big guns end up on PC.

Isn't that a 16gb day 1 patch as well



For anyone installing games from a disc, it's much faster if you disconnect from the internet first. The reason it takes so long to install games is because it's also downloading any updates the game may have.
