The Xbox Onesie

Hoping for a cheap Forza Horizon, also a ton of arcade games I'd be interested in.
 
Get Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls. Fantastic game. Yeah, it's Diablo so it's pretty repetitive, but still a fun and extremely polished game. Love em or hate em, but Activision games are typically very fluid and have a nice feel to them in terms of responsiveness.
 
Bummed that they put Ori in there, not because I recently payed full price for it, but because 20 is already cheap for it and it deserves to sell at that price. Ah well.

So are the couple big games they presented in that video the best ones and the rest fillers ? I'm hoping for Dead Rising 3 or GTA5 (I refuse to pay full price again for that game after buying it on the 360 twice).

Got a 2GB dash update today, anybody know what it adds? I am in the preview program.
 
Out of curiosity, has anyone tried plugging in an external drive that was used on an X1 into another one? Is it able to read all the saved games and such (with the same profile)? I was just wondering if my X1 ever died that I could get a new one and plug the same drive in and basically not have to download anything again?
 
I don't see GTA5 going on sale by much for the rest of the year. The game is just too huge they don't need to discount it.

I'm still waiting for a significant sale on DR3........still.......waiting.......

I'll grab Ori at $10-15 just as I thought. Downloadable only games go on deal much better than disc games. I see Ori as a GwG freebie at some point, but I'll just grab it this month. I see it as a good GwG offer in late 2015/early 2016.
 
I have yet to see or play a Borderlands game but it seems to be a fairly popular series. A good sale on that may give me the impetus to give it a try. It would have to be under $20 for me.

I played the original Borderlands on 360 way back. In a nutshell:

- Cell shaded kind of look
- First person shooter
- Lots of enemies, loot, respawning enemies
- Lots of weapons
- Randomized landscape to a degree (if you and I both played the game, your starting area would be a bit different than mine, but still the same kind of thing as a whole)
 
Many long, late hours on the original Borderlands. Getting 4 hours of sleep a night during the week is not a good idea.

Ori totally worth it. I think it's worth the full $20. Hell, I'm going to play it again!

Hey guys. Quick question. I recently purchased the white halo console and moved my day one console to the bedroom. I left my original kinect in the computer room on my new console. The problem i am having is I am trying to set up the TV function for my bedroom console with the HDMI pass through from my fios TV box. For some reason when I hit X on my controller for the one guide which pulls up just fine and scroll to the channel I want to watch and hit A, it always brings up the xbox tv setup screen. Even though I have already followed the instructions for setting everything up. Ugh. Do you have to have the kinect in order to use the one guide? Or am I doing something wrong?

When you're in the preview program you can download the preview program app, it will tell you about updates, fixes, known problems etc. I can recommend it.

Have you setup the IR blaster to change the TV channels? By the way get this, it has a guide button and works soon as you pick it up rather than having to switch on the controller.
