Primed for pre loading since it was Final Fantasy Versus XIII... 

Halo Wars 2 - March
Sea of Thieves - June
Scalebound - August
State of Decay 2 - No body cares
Forza - September

For some reason I don't think we'll see Crackdown.
I think there is still a spot for one game on October or whenever Scorpio releases.

MS spending some marketing dollars in Australia for a change - last month we had Phil at EB expo now we have the Major at an EB store in Melbourne tomorrow

Yep don't expect major announcements for Xbox E3 2017, They will just focus on the Scorpio and show off the 4k versions of Halo 5 and Gears 4. Sony will most likely announce TLoU 2 andshow off more of their already great 2017 lineup along with Death Stranding reveal gameplay.

The only thing that worries me is Crackdown and Sea of Thieves both of those are ambitious titles but have big question marks when it comes to Gameplay and Content i'm excited for them but entirely sold on them yet.

October was such an awesome month for gaming, but I didn't get that many achievements.

35 achievements for Forza Horizon 3
49 achievements for Gears of War 4
7 achievements for Rise of the Tomb Raider
12 achievements for LEGO Jurassic World
4 achievements for FIFA17

  = 1,310 gamerscore :P

I'll be playing mostly Gears of War and Fifa for a while now unless I'll decide to pick up Bioshock Collection, XCOM2 or maybe Dishonored if people say it's worth playing.

You got a better chance of MS getting Japanese support than Rare working on a single player game.

Got it pre ordered, I was really hyped about it but the  "imo" crap gameplay segments from last E3 lowered my hype a little mainly due to the action based combat but I'm sure I will get it back a few days before it launches.

I originally had it pre ordered on PS4 but cancelled that a few months back in favour of the Xbox One copy, Square-Enix need to see that there is a good demand for quality JRPG's on the Xbox, Whilst the average Xbox gamer cares nothing for fan service games which try to call them selves JRPG's or the ever rampant pervert simulator games there is definitely a fanbase for real JRPG's developers just need to publish them on the Xbox and keep that userbase and build upon it. Hopefully FFXV and KH3 can do this.

You finally gave Applebee's employees a break. 

Dumpster diving sob.

I'm calling the animal control on that a**.

You 2 must of been sat there spamming f5 on twitter.

Thanks, BC team just sent me their planned November list, looks to be a great BC month, landing some of top fan requests

Maybe some of Mass Effect 2/3, Oblivion and San Andreas or possible Fable Aniversary to complete the trilogy for BC? All highly ranked in the voting and very possible to arrive on BC imo.
