GodisaGeek: "Racing games are not my forte. Unless it’s a kart based cartoon-a-thon with missiles or franchise based weaponry that allow you to go nuts on the race track. This is because very little skill is involved in these games, bar some power sliding and a bit of timing knowledge on when to use an item.
Put me behind the wheel of a realistic racer, and you’ll find that I’m not entirely sure how to play driving games at all. If I’m not swerving incoherently across the track, I’ll probably be using the other cars to help guide me around corners, or just missing them completely.
It’s when I pick up the controller to a game like DiRT: Showdown that I feel someone, somewhere, knew exactly what I was going through."
Codemasters and the folks behind the Humble Store have teamed up again for a massive giveaway, and this time they are offering DiRT Showdown for free.
Neil writes "Last week's Xbox Live Deals With Gold sale was, quite frankly, a bit rubbish. But we can forget all about that as there's a new sale in town and this one will be running between the 8th-14th November 2016. Surely it's got to bring us a better set of bargains? Well, check out the full listing below."
Devil May Cry Defnitive Edition for 10€ sounds reasonable, doesn't it?
I have never played it.

Microsoft has once again released another batch of backwards compatible games which are now ready to play on Xbox One and Xbox One S consoles.
This games already were Backward compatible.
The update made it so that we could use the Xbox One Wheel Control with them, for better racing. This should have been the news.
I would love to play Splinter Cell Blacklist with increased performance and VSync enabled. Come on Microsoft, make it happen.
They need nore Japanese published games on the BC list.
I'm waiting for.
Dark Arisen.
I wish PSO exclusives like FF7, FF9 could be released on Xbox One.
I love how the biggest selling point of the Xbox One is the ability to play last generation games. Don't get me wrong, Xbox 360 had one of the best lineups in console history... Xbox One has one of the worst.
Why oh why do so many racing game articles start with a journo confessing how useless he is at them???
You don't see a preview of Halo or COD start with "I must admit I'm probably the worlds worst fps player..."
Here's a novel idea, why not get get somebody with an interest and admiration for the genre to write about racing games?
dirt 3 handles great, learning curve is there and the core driving has weight
