IM PLAYIN discusses this month's slightly disappointing Games with Gold.
"Crimson Dragon; I’ve mentioned it in a few of my articles already, and I very much expected this game to be offered with the Games with Gold initiative on the Xbox One… though I’m surprised it’s taken this long. I’ve toyed with the idea of downloading Crimson Dragon once or twice before, in moments of weakness / boredom, when I was looking for a new game to fill a little of my downtime. My first impressions of the game were pretty poor, but after playing it for a bit, I must admit, I kind of got into it. That’s not to say that it’s a great game, but then it isn’t terrible. It’s most certainly one of the poorer games offered through GWG so far. Well, in league with Halo: Spartan Assault. Strike Suit Zero is a fun little game, which brings the August GWG out of the slums a little, but it still isn’t what I was hoping for from the initiative this month."
Will these Xbox One exclusives ever release on the PC platform?
Yupp cuz it was like 5 hrs long and riddled with micro transactions.. Yeah defend ur crap thats why u deserve it
All I want is rare replay. I'd Pay $100 for the games bundle. I just want the Banjo's, Conker and Kameo titles. The rest I'll pass on, maybe keep battle toads though the only battle toads game I really liked was the Double dragon and battle toads title on SNES
Hold on a sec but didn't some people on here on say that all xbox games are on pc and therefore there is no need to own an Xbox One
Not only that, but how many people have PCs that can run. Microsofts games better than they run on X1X. Also Red Dead 2 says hello to PC gamers!
You need to rethink this one. That made no sense. Microsoft games, not RockStar games, also a PC would run RDR2 better than a console. Don't get how you mention running better then go on to run from a comparison. Games just run better on PC, it's just that simple. Don't gotta be a blind fanboy.
I do. And I have Pro, X1X, and gaming pc. I don’t discriminate, a good game is a good game.
There are literally 4 games on this list. All of them from the first couple years of the gen.
Personally, I don't think the author tried that hard. Surely there are more than that.
I'm sure you understand generalizations though.
So he mentions only 4 games that aren't on pc but it doesn't change the fact that there are people who say something like "all you need is a ps4, switch & PC" or " there's no point in owning an Xbox One as all its exclusives are on pc" now does it
Doesn't really change that no. But if one has a variety of consoles, 4 games isn't really going to be much of a reason to buy a new console. That's typically the context by which people use the expression.
Personally, I think it's kind of dumb, as I don't think that PC and console gamers overlap that much. But I do feel that if one has a good enough PC, and isn't adverse to using it for gaming, then the X1 becomes fairly superfluous, while other consoles have more to offer in said scenario.
facepalm*
4 games and 2 are halo. 2 titles are also just rereleases of older games in a comp. So it's really 2. No one is worried about 1 and the other is one weak ass excuse for a Halo title. Reason no one talks about it no more. So yes, when that statement is said, it's right.
So how does what you said refute how people claim that every Xbox exclusive is on pc
Since jumping into the console market with the Xbox on November 15, 2001, Microsoft has become one of the gaming biggest gaming giants. With an array of exclusive titles such as Halo and Gears of War, the Xbox console has gained a notorious following. However, while there are a lot of great games to have come out on Microsoft's consoles there are also many disappointing titles. Here are the most disappointing Xbox exclusive games.
I think Quantum break was quite disappointing, but Sea of Thieves already looked terrible from the first day, it was fictitiously hyped by "ambassadors". Halo 5 is a 343 game so it is ok, you don't expect much... they don't deliver... Ryse was a new IP, it was ok for a new IP
I really liked sea of thieves,i thought it was an awesome and unique game........for the first 20 hours then it got beyond repetitive and it is a pity cause it had potential in my opinion
Quantum Break should have just left out all the live action TV crap and focused on the main stuff...you know the actual game.
Halo 5 had an awful story for the single player but it also 343 trying to change Bungie's formula to make it a 343 campaign just like what they TRIED to do with the multiplayer in Halo 4.
If people want a squad based single player game where people online can join your game and take over one of the story characters then we have Gears of War for that.
I was actually interested in SoT since it started getting the dev diaries. I never really wanted to play the game, as I'm not into the MP stuff, but I liked what I was seeing. What it came to be in the end wasn't all that impressive.
So I'm not the only one to think Sea of Thieves looked bad from the very first day.
I don't know how that game can be enjoyed honestly. Almost no content and feels totally uninspired...
But that's just my opinion of course.
Replies(4)Halo 5 wasn’t bad and there are still a lot of people still playing it. The campaign definitely wasn’t the best but the multiplayer is really fun.
Halo 5 Campaign is the worst and most misleading marketing campaign. People don’t have a problem with Halo 5 MP, it’s the MT in Halo 5 that people have problem with it. It was just gambling and you don’t feel special about it.
Agreed, game still going strong after more than three years. Bring it to pc 343
BS. Quantum Break was great and Halo 5 was average. Problem is, Halo games AREN'T MEANT TO BE AVERAGE, so Halo 5 really stands out like a sore thumb in the series in that regard. I can't judge Super Lucky's Tale, but I really want to pick it up sometime.
QB was such a damn disappointment I sold it, and my system right after finishing the damn game. You could just spam the samn damn moves to finish the game lol.
Amazon strikes again, with digital deals on hit titles. They just updated their video game section with new digital deals on PS4, Xbox One, and Xbox 360. Right now, they're offering up to 81% off on several Sony and Xbox consoles titles. The details are shown below:
How are these two games any worse than what the PS+ offerings on PS4 have been? Not to mention some great 360 games as well.
Crimson dragon and strike suit zero are definitely not great games but games with gold had both guacamelee and max the curse of brother hood which were two good games. I'm sure as the selection and quality of xbox one games increases, games with gold will only get better. At the moment there aren't that many games to chose from.
I don't have live gold anymore (and likely never will) but I felt the games with gold freebies were good this month...for 360 at least.
Cant say PS4 has been better Strider was cool and i really like pixel junk shooter. but PS4 has been really week in PS+ games
Towerfall Ascension......eww
we will see in augest for PS+
but Strike suit zero is great and Crimson Dragon is pretty cool if you are into it
