From the PlanetXbox360.com feature preview:
"When Twisted Pixel unveiled its first gameplay trailer for the forthcoming LocoCycle, their latest project, it left us a bit bewildered. The team, normally known for character-based antics like The Gunstringer, Splosion Man and The Maw, almost looked as if they were going on the straight-and-narrow with a racing action game. But lo and behold, this one's got the most character to date, featuring not only a protagonist racing cycle with a mind of her own, but also a vicious hunter who has a few tricks up his sleeve."
GameZone's Matt Liebl: "Last week, we celebrated the PlayStation 4’s first birthday by listing the best and the worst games of its first year. Seeing as how today marks the one year anniversary of the Xbox One’s release, I think it only fair to do the same with Microsoft’s console. So happy first birthday, Xbox One, these were the worst games of your first year."

im pretty sure a lot of people enjoyed driveclub killzone and knack too but theyre bad games and thats that
ryse absolutely deserves to be on it
Exactly, enjoying something doesn't mean it's good, only that you like it. Some people enjoy Lil Wayne's music, but he's a pretty crap rapper.
Personally, i love Driveclub, i think it's one of the best racing games out there, same goes for Shadowfall, a very good FPS with amazing graphics, Knack was ok, not brilliant but OK, more of a technical demonstration than a game.
It was as linear and repetitive button mashing as can be. Originally set to be a Kinect game- for Xbox360.
Visually it was pretty - great art design - which only makes it feel more of a missed opportunity.
As a launch game goes, though, I'd give it up to 7/10 and if visuals are weighted more heavily, up to 8/10.
I can't say fairer than that.
Personally I though Max and Ryse were at worst average games, but certainly not bad. However Fighter Within deserves some kind of award for being the first truly all around crap game of the new generation.
Only played Max on that list and it was quite enjoyable. Not the best game ever, but definitely quite fun.
I wouldn't play the rest though. Just not my kind of games.

Just finished 1000G on Child Of Light, brilliant game but takes a while to get going, well worth £8
I love being a cheap f^ck who waits to buy games until they go on sale! Now to sit back on my unicorn skinned sofa with my servant and play games on my 150" TV while drinking Cristal from the Holy Grail signed by Harrison Ford.
Resident Evil 4, $4.99.....woo hoo!
Id get Family Guy if I hasn't already 1k'd it.
Found that game surprisingly fun, and actually quite hard to find in store now - especially at a good price.
Warframe is also free right now,you can find it in the new released section
of games ,that is xbox one
I never played it, so don't knw, dwnloading it now,heard is only multiplayer tough
Thanks for the response. I started downloading it this morning before heading out to work. Will try it later on.
It's a free to play game, so expect it to remain free for the foreseeable future.
The currency is less free of course.
The Indie Gala Every Monday bundle just got a major-name game pretty quickly after release for a mere $2. For two dollars, you can get LocoCycle, Metal Drift, Ignite, Collateral, Zero Gear, and Race Injection.
Here's an idea: Why don't you give me half the money your were gonna to spend on LocoCycle, then we'll go out back, I'll kick you in the nuts, and we'll call it a day!
