Darksiders, AC Revelations and more arrive via Xbox Back Comp – Are they worth the return?

Carlos writes "Whilst we may have received new arrivals to the backwards compatible library just a few days ago, today adds even more titles to the batch of newcomers, two of which players with an active Xbox Live Gold membership will receive free next month via the Games With Gold scheme.

Are they worth returning to though?"

AC is the one for me, never played that one.

They sure know how to maximize profits by keeping popular multiplayer titles of BC.

I really enjoy the Darksiders series, keeping my fingers crossed on a third installment.

When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.

The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.

Historic Eras that Video Games Need to Explore

Xfire writes "Worldbuilding is a crucial part of any story. It's not an easy task to create a believable setting with its own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations and then weave a story into the said setting. Luckily, storytellers and video game writers don't always need to create complex settings when we've got history books as thick as Big Chungus.

Historical eras make a fabulous setting for video games. They've already got the world-building nailed, complete with their own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations. Honestly, I don't think I need to justify the fact that historical eras make an amazing setting for video games. If you don't believe me, just go ahead and play the Ghost of Tsushima or any of the Assassin's Creed games."

The first crusade would be pretty sweet. I’d probably enjoy any of those on your list if they were done respectfully. Like not some dork in Portland making a Russian Revolution game.

Benin Empire, Far East, Central America. Games are pretty biased toward Europe, North America, and the Middle East. There is a very big world out there.

Works here in the states. You have to do the following:

1. First go login to Xbox.com
2. Then goto https://www.microsoft.com/e...
3. When the prompt appears, choose to stay in “Argentina - Spanish”. Make sure your browser URL still contains “es-ar”
4. Click the button that reads something like “Gratis con Xbox Live Gold”

Enjoy!

Darksiders III in steam is 75 % off , it will end in 10 min , go go go! ,

Is a really good game , if you are able to run it 60 fps is even better, really like the Super saiyan modes :D

smashman981167d ago

I still prefer the original but man Darksiders 3 was so good

CrimsonWing691166d ago

Doesn't show up free on the NA store.
