Phil Spencer Ends Third-Party Exclusive Games On Xbox One.
As long as Phil Spencer is head of Xbox, fans should never expect to see a third-party exclusive title on the Xbox One or any future versions of the console. It's the shocking truth, but is it a good move?
In an interview with IGN, Phil Spencer made it clear that he is no fan of third-party exclusives, which is the most likely scenario why Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will have exclusive content on the PlayStation 4 instead of the Xbox brand as per usual.
Now, we know that Microsoft has inked a deal with Crystal Dynamics to bring Rise of the Tomb Raider first to Xbox One and Xbox 360, which sounds like Phil Spencer is being a bit hypocritical. However, he did state that Rise of the Tomb Raider is a different issue because Microsoft is helping with the game's development and is also the publisher.
Basically, Microsoft seems to be pumping money and manpower into this game, so it is definitely not a traditional third-party exclusive in the sense that the money paid goes directly into the coffers of the developers and not into the game.
Microsoft is willing to do deals such as the Rise of the Tomb Raider one, along with deals on the lines of Fallout 4 mods coming to Xbox One first and EA Access being an exclusive service.
The EA Access deal was easy because Sony didn't want it, an enormous loss to the company because EA Access is sweet.
As it stands right now, Microsoft is throwing its money and support behind its own first-party exclusive games instead of filling the bank account of video game publishers. Sony, on the other hand, is taking advantage of this move by the software giant by gobbling up many of what it doesn't want.
At the end of the day, we view this as a good move by Microsoft. Nintendo has been doing it for a very long time, so we see no reason why Microsoft cannot, and ultimately, Sony.

The 25 best Xbox One games.
What are the best Xbox One games to buy? Take a look at this list and all will become clear.
The cream of the crop.
In case you missed it, Monster Hunter World is pretty popular right now. It\s sold well, and is good, but it's best Xbox One games good?
Well, not quite. There's been some online problems on Xbox One and while it's good, it's not really a hall of fame job. It was a similar story with the recent Vanishing of Ethan Carter, an atmospheric supernatural murder mystery that, like Monster Hunter World, is highly recommended. However, when you've only 25 places to fill they've got to go to the best of the best.
That means things like Assassin's Creed Origins and Wolfenstein 2 most recently. They're also two Xbox One X Enhanced games so if you have a 4K TV and an X, then those are great games to show everything off.
In terms of upcoming Xbox One games, Coming up soon we'll have Monster Hunter World on Jan 26, and Far Cry 5 on March 27, along with this little selection over the next couple of months.
Mar 13 - The Crew 2.
Mar 23 - A Way Out.
'Spring' - State of Decay 2.
'Spring - Crackdown 3.
Only time will tell if any of those will make it into the 25 best Xbox One games list.
For the meantime, though the best Xbox One games is still full of classics like Fallout 4 , Cuphead , Titanfall 2 , Minecraft and Gears of War 4 . If it's an essential Xbox One title it's here, and as there's only 25 places competition only the best get a look in. Every time something new comes alone we review it, appraise it and then, if it's good enough, it might be added here.
25. Final Fantasy 15.
The Final Fantasy name isn't exactly synonymous with Microsoft's console, but we're happy just the same as Final Fantasy 15 is easily one of the best RPGs of the year. It blends the vast open-worlds of Western RPGs with Final Fantasy's hallmark over-the-top anime absurdity to great effect, crafting a world based on the highways and byways of Middle America while filling that world with ferocious monsters, massive crystals, and powerful magic. There are times when Final Fantasy 15 feels like an idiosyncratic mishmash of ideas, but when you throw everything together - the strange world, the thrilling, real-time combat, the lovable characters who stick with you for your entire journey - it becomes something much greater than the sum of its parts. It becomes one of the best Final Fantasy games in ages; a game well worth the wait.
24. Cuphead.
After delays that led to maybe just a touch of apathy, Cuphead is here and has instantly become one of the best shooters all time (according to our review). While the presentation is crafted beautifully from 1930 cartoon art - things like Betty Boop shorts and Disney's Silly Symphonies - this takes gameplay cues from sources like Mega Man, Contra, Metal Slug, and Gunstar Heroes. The levels aren’t huge but it’s the challenge, not the size that matters here as you dodge bullets and learn enemy patterns. Everything tests your skills and reactions in a range of interesting ways and, most importantly, are a joy to beat.
23. Halo: Master Chief Collection.
*braces for complaints* Yes, we are well aware of the problems that plagued this particular entry, but now that it works, there's no doubting the craftsmanship here. Bungie's genius meets 343's love in a package that truly does justice to an industry-shaking legacy. Buffed-up, revarnished and back in the shop window, The Master Chief Collection leaves us to wonder if Halo always looked so lovely. And you know what? It more or less did.
Is that mug a Mimic? How about that chair? Or even that corpse. There's nothing quite like exploring Talos-1, just waiting for its terrifying alien predators to appear when you least expect it before splatting them senseless with a wrench. But that's only the beginning of the joys of Prey. Before long, you're expertly juggling Neuromods, experimenting with new abilities and attempting to stay out of sight of horrific Typhons and the frankly intimidating Nightmare. Prey requires to explore every inch of its space station, heading into tunnels when you'd rather go the other way and hunting down corpses of those who came before. Add in the twisting narrative that gradually unravels before you and this is an instant addition to our best Xbox One games list. Just remember your GLOO gun. You'll need it.
21. Rainbow Six Siege.
The first few minutes of a Rainbow Six: Siege match feel more like a slasher film than an all-guns-blazing FPS. The pitter-patter of combat booted feet sounds through the roof. Defenders erect Home Alone defences. Was that the whine of a rappel buckle? It's a sense of tension that beats most horror games. And once all hell does break loose, you're suddenly thrown into the midst of deep, strategical, brutally unforgiving warfare. Ripe with tactical options and built for "one more go" appeal, this is by far Xbox One’s smartest multiplayer shooter.
20. Halo 5: Guardians.
Halo's always been a balance of campaign with multiplayer, but this entry's a tad lopsided. The story of Locke chasing Chief isn't quite the era-defining moment we were hoping for but, luckily, it's the series-best multiplayer that gets our visors misty. Halo 5: Guardians offers so very much to prospective online warmongers. Arena is a return to the Halo of old, tense cerebral skirmishes that are an oasis of sanity in a sea of crude shooters. If you fancy some madness, then you have Warzone - mega-battles powered by a desperately addictive card-collecting system. And more's being added - 343 just reintroduced Big Team Battles and a new version of classic map, Blood Gulch for free. We're home.
19. Ori and the Blind Forest.
Imagine a lavish, beautiful storybook world… that slams shut on your stupid, bleeding fingers for seven brutal hours. This is Ori and the Blind Forest, the result of Microsoft handing a group of retro fanatics enough money (and freedom) to make a worthy successor to the platformers of old. Not only is this a pitch-perfect update to the formula set up by Metroid and Castlevania, combining mechanical satisfaction with tear-jerking narrative sequences, it's also quite probably the best-looking 2D game of all time. So yeah, it's pretty special.
18. Middle-earth: Shadow of War.
With a bigger, richer world and more tightly honed mechanics Shadow of War is a great sequel - the combat is more immediate and satisfying, the environments more detailed varied, and everything combines beautifully. It's also one of the best Xbox One X enhanced games if you want to show off all that power. This is a big game though - seriously, seriously huge. 15 hours or so will finish the prologue; another 25 odd will unlock the rest of the map, so don't pick this up for a quick fling - you need to commit. The series' nemesis system that defines the series has had expanded to create a twisting narrative of encounters, defeats and victories as you meet and battle various orcs - yours and their progress defined by who wins the fight. This time it's also been expanded to include castles you can storm, building and training an army up to the task. Even if you don't like Lord of the Rings, it's a massive and exciting open world to explore.
17. FIFA 18.
It's another step on for FIFA 18 this year, with some great tweaks to the action: taking a shot from a distance now has more impact, crosses are improved with a genuine whip added to the ball. AI's been improved as well with far more individual character and personality to different star's playing styles and, while lower league team don't feels quite as good, teams do have different feeling tactics when you play them. The continuation of the single player Journey also continues to impress with an exciting and even occasionally touching campaign as you follow his career. It's this mode that gives FIFA 18 the edge over PES this year as it's leagues ahead of any comparable mode you might find in similar games. And, finally, the monster that is FIFA Ultimate Team is improved by Squad Battles which let you progress better without spending real money. A welcome addition if chasing cards and coins is big part of your life.
16. Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus.
Wolfenstein: The New Order is one of the most unique, brutal, brave, hilarious, and intelligent shooters of the generation so far. MachineGames' sequel, The New Colossus, confidently doubles down on all of that. Moving BJ Blazkowicz's very personal war further into the alternative-universe '60s, and transposing it to an America under Nazi rule, The New Colossus is uncompromisingly relevant. It's a smart, sensitive, and emotive discussion of callousness, prejudice, and cruelty, that nevertheless knows how to be fun at all times. A biting portrait of human failures and social horrors, that does its biting with big robot teeth and hatchet blades. It's a game that exemplifies heart and brains throughout, but never with more unremitting flair than when it comes to the noble art of tearing Nazis to shreds with bloody and balletic style.
15. Battlefield 1.
We were worried DICE had set themselves up for a fall with a WW1 shooter, when Battlefield 1 was announced. Taking on one of the most bloody and tragic conflicts in human history isn't typically the best starting point for a fun game. But the anthology format is a masterstroke, using different perspectives to capture the sensational action of conflict, while sensitively showing the human cost of war. The story of the British chauffeur turned tank driver alone is more emotionally nuanced than anything we've seen from Battlefield before. But this isn't some weepy drama – it's a WW1 epic, an overwhelming shooter like nothing else on Xbox One, with 64 player multiplayer mode to keep you coming back. It's a gamble that paid off. Just be careful how you Tweet about it next time, OK EA?
14. Rocket League.
Nobody expected this to be quite such an explosive success but then think objectively and put the words ‘cars’ and ‘football’ together and suddenly it all makes beautifully insane sense. Both local and online modes for its petrol fuelled madness makes Rocket League multiplayer gold. Slews of DLC - Back To The Future’s DeLorean anyone - since release and now a new Xbox One/PC multiplayer option means it’s now bigger and better than ever, and there’s no better time to put your hand on your wallet and foot on the gas. Make it one of your life… goals.
13. Rise of the Tomb Raider.
Don’t be fooled by its frostbitten landscapes; this is the kind of barn-burning action-adventure that, until recently, only (ahem) other consoles used to get. Pivoting effortlessly from digital sightseeing to cinematic survival, then into stealth before exploding into brutal action, this is truly blockbuster stuff - appropriate for one of gaming's biggest icons. Amidst a gaming landscape packed with open worlds that sap full weeks of your life away, that Rise of the Tomb Raider packs all its thrills into a dizzying ten hours isn't just welcome, it's an accomplishment - this is non-stop fun. Except when Lara's murdered by your fumbling fingers. That's not so nice.
12. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard.
Let's face it. Resident Evil had gone a bit like a foot left out of the fridge too long. A bit, well, off . After the glorious heady heights of Resi 4 defining the third person shooter as we know it, it all got a bit mediocre. Well 2017 is the year Resi got its groove back and you should be very afraid. Turning the franchise on its head, Resident Evil 7 is a first person survival terror-fest that sees you sneaking through a decrepit Louisiana mansion hunting for your missing wife. Texas Chainsaw Massacre style fiends? Check. Horrific body horror? Check that too. Add in a story that'll leave you forgetting to breathe for a little too long and Resident Evil 7 manages to be an exhilarating rollercoaster ride that reinvents the franchise. Sure you'll recognise those green herbs but this is a new brand of horror that just demands you creep through its hallways even if it feels like you should run in the opposite direction.
11. Forza Motorsport 7.
Improved AI, collisions, handling - what Forza Motorsport 7 gets right reads like a list of everything a racing game should do perfectly. Cars all feel great to control, giving you the confidence you need to push the handling to its limits - drifting on cue, or hugging the rails when you need dig the tires in. In fact, throughout, this a game that tweaks and adjusts everything the previous installment got wrong. It’s all about delivering the best player experience and creating a game that’s both realistic and fun. Some of the progression is a little demanding, with numerous barriers to surmount as you collect cars and win events, but there’s nothing that really take the shine of one the greatest racers currently available.
10. Gears of War 4.
It was during Act Four, when the storm was raging, bullets were flying from all sides, blood was gushing all over us as we chainsawed close-up enemies and then tried to aim at those sniping us from afar, when suddenly the music rose at the perfect moment. It was as if God himself was singing 'I'm really sorry for Gears of War: Judgment'. Apology accepted. A bloodbath with real brains, Gears of War 4 adds an army of new monsters, each demanding fresh tactics to dispatch and bringing new ideas to how we approach combat. It means the first sequel since Gears 2 that can surprise newcomers without sacrificing the excellent cover-shooting that made the series famous. Bloody essential.
9. Titanfall 2.
Any FPS that lets you run along walls and then double jump into a giant mechanical Titan instantly has our attention. Titanfall 2 does that and so much more. “But where's our single-player?” we moaned, when the first Titanfall came to Xbox in 2014. “Fine!” retorted Respawn. “How about for this sequel, we tell the story of a pilot and his Titan? One where you steadily unlock Titan weapons that look powerful enough to burn the universe in half? How about a stage wherein you can travel through time at the touch of a button? How about several hours of dizzyingly paced, ideas-stuffed action that makes every shooter since we made Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare look lazy?” Well that certainly shut us up. Throw in Bounty Hunt, a capitalist nightmare of an essential multiplayer mode, and we promise never to accuse Respawn of laziness again.
8. Overwatch.
Well if Valve aren't going to bother making Team Fortress 3, we'll have Blizzard do it instead. The World of Warcraft studio had never made a shooter before, so it makes no sense at all that Overwatch is one of the best multiplayer FPS' ever. A ridiculously varied cast of colourful heroes, each with powers that should logically break the game (Tracer can travel back through time for crying out loud!) Yet it all checks and balances, letting us fire bows and arrows, sky dragons, walls of ice and whip chains through the air for hours and hours without ever feeling like its cheaty or unfair. Months later, and still the only flaw we can find is Tracer's horrid cockney accent. By this logic, if Blizzard ever offer to make us dinner, expect world hunger to be eradicated within the hour.
7. Destiny 2.
After the endless, life absorbing life sink of the original game what could Destiny 2 possibly do to beat it? The answer is actually obvious: more of the same, only richer, more accessible and. just. more Destiny. The sequel takes nearly every element of the space travelling, gun collecting, number raising MMO and polishes it to a fine sheen. You can see almost every area where Bungie learned from the last game, making the areas you explore richer with things to do, adding depth to both the systems that progress your character, and hte activities you take on to do so. Few games mix combat, multiplayer and character progressions so well and it's an addictive draw as a result.
6. Grand Theft Auto 5.
Gaming's biggest blockbuster deserves its place at the head of the list. GTA 5 was already an excellent, brutal, beautiful open-world game, and is made even more so on Xbox One with a visual tidy-up, a glut of new content and the addition of first-person pedestrian-beating. With the addition of online Heists to make its online component even more enticing, Rockstar edges closer to making a game world so vast and varied that you could start to do away with anything else. Which, come to think of it, was probably the plan all along.
5. Minecraft.
As simple or as complex as you want it to be, Minecraft is the perfect example of a game that lives up to the hype. Whether you just fancy pottering around in creative mode, or jumping into survival to take on various blocky nasties in your quest for the End, Mojang's masterpiece always feels perfectly yours and unique. This is a world worth just wandering in for eternity. Plus, the constant evolution with new packs, new textures and gameplay tweaks means that Minecraft is always moving forward. If you thought it was just about stacking up green blocks, it's time to catch up.
4. Assassin's Creed Origins.
Assassin's Creed Origins is the long awaited reboot the series has needed. And ye gods, is it ever exactly what we hoped for. It's also a flagship Xbox One X Enhanced game so a great way to show off your new console. Remodelling Assassin's Creed into a true open-world RPG, full of creative stabbing, character stats, and malleable gameplay (What is best in life, Conan?), the ancient Egyptian adventure is a vast, sprawling, actual, bona fide country of a game, packing with detail, side-quests, and secrets to tackle your own way, at any time you want.
With the overhauled combat now fuelled by a fully customisable gear system (Want twin daggers that put people to sleep, and a poisonous shield? Or a sword that buffs your health, and a bow with controllable arrows? You can have all of these things), any hint of the old series’ weary gameplay is long gone. Packed with wit, warmth, and a staggering scale of options, it's really rather fitting that the game that goes back to the beginning of the story is also the one that gives Assassin's Creed a fresh start.
3. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain.
If we didn't know better (or should that be worse?), we'd say Konami took the Hideo Kojima brand off of his last stab at MGS 5: The Phantom Pain because it feels quite so different to his previous efforts. Yes, it's packed with the off-kilter jokes, mechanical ingenuity and conspiracy theories so wild they're seemingly drawn from the darkest of the internet's depths - but at it's core, this is a very different kind of Hideo Kojima game.
2. Fallout 4.
We sort of knew what we were getting. It's big, it's buggy, it's Bethesda. Fallout 4 is a natural evolution, bringing with it the often aimless exploration, gentle humour and moral greyitude of the last two instalments, while propping it all up with a new-gen veneer. They might not be enormous shifts, but main character voice acting, better gunplay and (shock) not having to look inside crates to loot them all make this a streamlined version of a now-classic formula. Frame rate dips and occasionally horrifying glitches rear their heads as usual, but it's difficult to feel too bad when there's simply so much going on. Once again, Bethesda has crammed several games' worth of joyously inconsequential stuff in here, resulting in one of the most compulsive, moreish games of this generation. Get stuck in, and you won't emerge for weeks.
1. Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
One of the most immersive RPGs ever made - a standout, mutable storyline, endlessly satisfying detective-cum-hitman Contracts, and side quests deeper than many games' main campaigns. The Witcher 3's world is one of the few game spaces to deserve that title - full of political intrigue, folklore and gross beasts to slice into ribbons. And all of that's failing to mention CD Projekt RED's raft of free DLC, and a couple of expansion packs - the first of which, Hearts of Stone, is responsible for this shooting up to the highest reaches of this list. Beautiful, rewarding and essential, this is a game we'll remember for years and years to come.

Shop for the best music, toy-to-life, superhero and puzzle-solving kids' games.

Though Mario may not be on the Xbox anytime soon, your best bet for the best Xbox One kids' game is Yooka-Laylee. It’s made by the same developers from yesteryears classics such as N64’s Banjo Kazooie; a solid platforming game with intriguing characters, gorgeous graphics and fun-filled gameplay.
Yooka-Laylee puts kids in the role of a buddy duo: a chameleon named Yooka and a bat named Laylee, who work together to bring their own awesome abilities that can be used in level progression. Players unlock moves as they journey through levels, offering a more custom set of options in how to play and explore the game’s vast worlds. This is the surefire choice Xbox One game for kids, made by experienced developers that bring both an intriguing atmosphere and lifelike characters in an overall game built solely on having fun.

The biggest and best superhero game on Xbox One is easily LEGO Marvel Super Heroes. Featuring just about every beloved Marvel hero and villain you can think of – The X-Men, Spider Man, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Guardians of the Galaxy, Fantastic Four and more – LEGO Marvel Super Heroes gives you the massive, open world of Manhattan to explore while trying to stop an evil plot by Loki and Doctor Doom. Each of the characters has distinct skills and abilities – Iron Man can melt gold objects, Wolverine can slash through walls, Hulk can lift heavy items, etc. – that you use to explore the levels and solve simple puzzles. Having so many great characters all in one game makes LEGO Marvel Super Heroes a sure fire hit with kids and comic fans alike.

Minecraft Story Mode takes place in the familiar blocky world players know and love, but features a large fully voiced cast of characters and a linear story about your character using their unique building abilities to seek out a mysterious group of heroes called the Order of the Stone and, eventually, save the world.
This is a story-driven game where you talk to characters, find items, and solve basic puzzles to access new areas and move the story forward; it's not an open world like normal Minecraft. It does have the traditional Minecraft crafting and building elements at key points in the story, however.
Even the most experienced Minecraft players will enjoy seeing all of the familiar items, blocks, locations and techniques presented in a new way here. The combination of the familiar Minecraft aesthetic with an actual story and cast of lovable characters make Minecraft Story Mode a must-play.
Music games like Rock Band 4 are great for kids and the whole family because they allow everyone to play together with the guitar, bass, drums and microphone. Sure, the fake plastic instruments aren’t very close to the real thing in these games, but learning basic musical timing and rhythms and getting your fingers into shape playing Rock Band really does help when it comes to learning to play the real thing.
The music selection in Rock Band 4 is absolutely massive as well, thanks to the huge amount of songs in just about every genre that are available as downloadable content. So more than likely your favorite songs will be playable in the game. Creating music, even with toy instruments, is extremely satisfying, and sharing that feeling with kids can lead them to a lifetime of loving music.

Toy-to-life games are awesome for kids because they’re really two toys/games in one. To start, you get real world toys and action figures that are fun to play with, but those special figures can also be scanned into a video game and played digitally as well. Our favorite toy-to-life game, LEGO Dimensions, takes it one step further by having you actually build the figures and playsets (which include licenses such as “Jurassic World,” “Back to the Future,” “Ghostbusters,” “Doctor Who,” “Scooby-Doo” and more) piece-by-piece with LEGO bricks. The video game levels based on those licenses are the same 3D action/platforming as other LEGO games, but you can swap any characters from any license in and out on any level, which creates some fun and funny crossover situations you’ll only find in LEGO Dimensions.
The “Jurassic Park” movies aren’t always exactly kid-friendly, but LEGO Jurassic World presents all four of the films in a light-hearted and humorous way where no one actually dies or gets hurt, and any violence is replaced with silly jokes. Not only does the game let you play through the plot of all four “Jurassic” movies, but it also gives you fully open world versions of the locations from the movies for you to explore.
Even better, along with the playable cast of human characters like Alan Grant, Dr. Sattler, Ian Malcom and more, there are also a number of playable dinosaurs including velociraptors, brontosaurus and T-Rex. The graphics are an interesting mix of realistic backgrounds with plastic characters that looks fantastic, and the sound effects/music were all taken directly from the movies.

Zoo Tycoon is a zoo building/management simulator at its core, but its real appeal comes from the fact that it is a great way to simply observe and interact with animals. The free play mode allows you to ignore the management aspect entirely so you can just build a zoo with whatever animals you want, and it is in this mode where the experience really shines.
Lions, tigers, bears, elephants, giraffes, chimpanzees and many other species of animals are available here, and just sitting back and watching them as they run around and play is an absolute joy. The graphics are fantastic, right down to the soft- and fuzzy-looking fur on the animals that makes you want to reach out and touch.
The best kids' games get them to think a little and maybe learn something new, and Adventure Time: Finn & Jake Investigations does this very well. In this game, Jake (the dog) and Finn (the boy) have to solve mysteries all over the land of Ooo. You explore fully 3D versions of key locations from the show, like Treetrunks’ house or Princess Bubblegum’s palace, in order to find clues and items that you piece together to solve the mystery.
Things like combining a bottle+water+soap to make a giant bubble so you can float upward, or having to interview everyone around town to figure out who took a key item are just some of the puzzles. You really have to think critically and be smart, and solving the puzzles is really quite fun. All of the fan-favorite characters from the show are here, fully voiced by the real actors, and the presentation overall is top notch.

Kinect for Xbox One was an undeniable flop, but if you do happen to have a Kinect you’re in for a treat with Fantasia: Music Evolved. Fantasia: Music Evolved pairs the visual brilliance of the Disney “Fantasia” films with a motion-controlled music game where you create music like the conductor of a symphony. The game includes classical pieces from Mozart and Bach, as well as modern songs from David Bowie and Queen.
By moving your hands in different ways to mimic onscreen indicators, you bring the music to life. The gameplay is relatively simple and intuitive, but the challenge comes from making sure your hands and body are in the right position to complete the next series of moves, not just the current one, which is tougher than it sounds. Once you learn to play, though, Fantasia: Music Evolved is extremely fun and stands as easily the best Kinect game ever.

Apparently it's also coming to Steam soon. To be honest, I'll probably end up double dipping on this, because it's far easier to bring a Surface to a party or to visit family for Thanksgiving next week (just as an example), than it is to bring an Xbox.

I'll be picking this up soon too, the phone controller thing sounds great.
The 14 Coolest Xbox Live Arcade Games That You Can Now Play on Xbox One.
Backward Compatibility for Xbox One is here, and the list of supported games is a pretty long one. Here’s a look at some of our favorite Xbox Live Arcade games, ranging from ‘90s classics to modern masterpieces. Whether you’re looking to race, shoot or survive an apocalypse, there’s something here for everyone.
Banjo-Kazooie : Developer Rare’s famous bear and bird first made their debut in 1998, and this classic platformer still holds up. The game is split into nine levels, where you must gather musical notes and jigsaw pieces (called “Jiggies”) to progress. Stars Banjo and Kazooie are occasionally aided by their friend Mumbo Jumbo – a shaman who can use magical powers to transform them into several creatures like termites, pumpkins, bees, walruses and crocodiles.
Beyond Good & Evil HD : An HD remake of one of the original Xbox’s sleeper masterpieces, Beyond Good & Evil HD has you playing as Jade, a young investigative reporter in the midst of exposing a government conspiracy. Joined by your loyal pig friend Pey’j, you set out in this action-adventure to save your planet and its inhabitants. It’s a brilliant, surreal example of games at their finest.
Castle Crashers : One of the games that started it all on Xbox Live, Castle Crashers is a side-scrolling 2D beat-‘em- up that has you battle your way across frozen tundras, deadly lava fields and rival kingdoms with up to three other players. There’s a nicely varied arsenal of combos and magical attacks to choose from, and the art from Dan Paladin is the stuff that 2D dreams are made of.
Doom : This is the first-person shooter that (along with Wolfenstein 3D ) started an FPS revolution! The plot is simple: You’re a Marine stationed on Mars when a military experiment goes horribly wrong… and your mission is to blast your way to freedom. You’ll go up against Hell’s army, which includes brutal cacodemons and undead Marines; fortunately, your arsenal of weapons includes the infamous BFG 9000, among others. Online deathmatch lets you battle your friends for dominance of the leaderboards, or team-up with a friend in co-op.
Earthworm Jim HD : Hold off on that de-worming for just a moment: Earthworm Jim is back, and this time he’s… still a worm. For the first time, this version of the game lets you grab friends and combine forces for four-player co-op, locally or online. Experience all of the original levels, zany gameplay and a remastered version of the cult classic soundtrack. You’ll get brand new enemies and locations to boot, making this one a no-brainer.
Ikaruga : This wild shooter is based on an elegantly executed concept: The enemies come in one of two polarities – black or white – and the player can flip their ship between either polarity at will. When the player ship is black, it may absorb black bullets, but it takes longer to shoot down black ships (and vice versa for white). The result is an intense, thumb-testing battle of brains and brawn – with five levels, cooperative multiplayer, leaderboards, achievements and the option to record and replay levels.
Metal Slug 3 : Metal Slug 3 comes to Xbox One in all of its 2D glory. A Japanese cartoon interpretation of classic American action movies like “Rambo” and “Commando,” Metal Slug 3 boasts some spectacularly detailed 2D pixel graphics, animation and pick-up-and-play arcade-style action. Lots of things will go boom, and you can team up with another player for some co-op blasting.
Monkey Island: Special Edition : Wannabe pirate Guybrush Threepwood stars in what is undoubtedly one of the finest point-and-click adventures ever devised. He’s on a quest to become the most infamous pirate in the Caribbean, and this remastered edition faithfully re-imagines the internationally acclaimed classic pirate adventure from LucasArts in gorgeous HD. With its new hand-drawn art style, a full voiceover by members of the original Monkey Island franchise cast, and a remastered musical score, you’ll be swashbuckling in your living room like never before.
N+ : From Toronto-based developer Metanet Software, N+ is truly the action-platformer deconstructed. With more than 400 levels, a custom level editor that lets you build your own challenges and share them with friends, leaderboards, achievements, the ability to upload your high score runs, and several distinctive flavors of multiplayer, N+ is a supreme test of your gaming precision and mettle.
Pac-Man: Championship Edition DX+ : Arguably the finest Pac-Man game ever conceived, Pac-Man Championship Edition DX+ builds upon the gameplay of Pac-Man Championship Edition . The foundation is the same as the original: Players control Pac-Man as he travels through a maze collecting dots and avoiding ghosts, which can be eaten by collecting power pellets. The game’s speed increases as the player acquires more points. The bright neon mazes and insane graphical effects make it feel like a Pac-Man rave and breathe new life into one of the all-time quarter-munching arcade classics.
Perfect Dark : A spiritual successor to the classic GoldenEye 007 , Perfect Dark is a spy thriller and action game rolled into one. You’ll uncover amazing gadgets and weapons as secret agent Joanna Dark, and everything in the game has a new coat of paint, thanks to this amazing remaster – not to mention multiplayer modes playable across the globe!
Plants vs. Zombies : Perhaps the most-played tower defense game ever created, Plants vs. Zombies turns you into a homeowner who must use a variety of different plants to prevent an army of zombies from entering your house and eating your brain for dinner.
R-Type Dimensions : Those looking for a side-scrolling space shooter fix need look no further. R-Type Dimensions includes coin-op classics R-Type and R-Type II together in one journey that has you piloting through all 14 alien-infested stages – in their original 2D form, or with all-new 3D graphics. Both Classic and Infinite modes can be played as single-player or multiplayer missions, either locally or online.
Super Meat Boy : Weak thumbs need not apply, as Super Meat Boy is as intense as platformers come. Taking the reins of an animated cube of meat, you’re trying to save your girlfriend (who is made of bandages) from an evil, tuxedo-clad fetus in a jar. Super Meat Boy brings the old-school challenge of classic retro titles we all know and love, and streamlines them down to straightforward twitch reflex platforming.
You can check all of these classics – and more – out now, via Xbox One Backward Compatibility!
The Best Free Games on the Xbox One.
With so much money being generated by titles like Candy Crush Saga and Clash Royale on phones and tablets, it’s entirely reasonable that the game industry is taking the free-to-play model very seriously these days on every platform. We’ve done our share of groaning about the nickel-and-diming tactics found on the App Store and Google Play, but there’s still much to enjoy about the free-to-play model when it’s done well.
Dota 2 and League of Legends on the PC are some of the most popular games in existence – both of which are free-to-play titles. Frankly, it’s beyond silly to write off the model entirely when there’s so much critical and commercial success. Clearly, this is more than just a passing fad, and console devs are working hard to get some of that alluring micro-transaction cash. Now let’s jump in, and explore what the free-to-play model has to offer for the average Xbox One or Xbox One X (see on Amazon) player.
I’d buy that for a dollar.
While console gamers have grown accustomed to dropping $60 (or more) on a game, it’s good to see more variety in the marketplace. And just like a large price tag may not fit a small-scale indie game, it’s important to remember that the free-to-play model isn’t one-size-fits-all either.
F2P is definitely here to stay, but not at the expense of other business models — in conjunction. Poorly made free-to-play games can easily leave a bad taste in your mouth, but it’s not fair to dismiss the entire concept outright. After all, we’ve seen numerous free-to-play games on the PC garner massive critical acclaim, and the concept is still relatively novel on consoles. Give these games a chance, and you might just find a game that you really love.

Requires Xbox Live to obtain, and play, thus=not free.
That is untrue to the best of my knowledge. You can download the client, and “Gatorade Sports Performance Football Training Camp” for $0 regardless of Gold status as far as I understand.
nope, xblg required, part of free for gold program.
I don’t have an Xbone here in the office, but I just now “bought” both the client and the “Gatorade Sports Performance Football Training Camp” online for $0. I don’t have XBL gold, and there were no disclaimers AT ALL about needing XBL gold.
Obviously, you need to have gold for unlimited access, but that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m referring to this one specific routine “purchased” for $0 like you would buy one of the other programs for $60.
Also, I just went through Xbox support, and asked if I can play Xbox Fitness DLC sans gold membership, and the answer was “Yes.”
To be fair, it was really hard to explain it to the agent in a way that he would understand, so ya know. This issue is apparently more complicated than it would seem.
Get on an xb1 without gold, see howfat that goes… not free, (KI is, but thats just a demo anyways..)
every live account you start gives you a small amount of gold time if im correct and after you are downgraded to silver….but none of the games on this list were games that required xboxlive gold except warframe which is an all online game. ive downloaded plenty of games without having gold…i bought minecraft without gold and downloaded neverwinter without gold soooo do you even have a live account?
CANT PLAY WITHOUT GOLD…..
Games, like warframe, are free to play on ALL other platforms BUT xbox……
Do you even internet?
I have each game you have stated that you are unable to play and i am able to play them all wothout my xbox one live so i have no live and am still playing games like neverwinter and warframe on my xbox do YOU even internet.
So full of shit, haha.
YOU ARE WRONG_ DO YOU EVEN OWN A XBOX!?
you can get LIVE SILVER which is free and thus allows you to web connect and download the above games.
My Uncle Max recently got a new black MINI Cooper Roadster Convertible by working parttime off of a macbook air. check this……>> -> START MAKING ONLINE EARNINGS EASILY. <-
People used to bash XBLG service because PSN was free. But XBLG was clearly superior in every way.
Now PSN is a paid subscription and people are still bashing XBLG. I don’t get it. You can literally buy XBLG for $40 a year if you wait for a sale somewhere that seems to happen every month.
Under $4 for a lag free service with free stuff every month. What more do you want?
PSN is awesome too with their free games.
What people need to complain about is the nickel and dime DLC tactics by developers. They can’t increase game prices so they just give you an incomplete game and force you to buy DLCs. DLCs used to be extras. Now you just get things that should’ve came with the game. When a developer launch a game with DLCs ready, you know it’s BS.
I pay for ps+, they tell me what I am paying for, and that is what I am getting… msft though claims its all for the servers (which it has plenty of, but xbk barely gets 1% of that whole 300k server pool they talk about, on top of the fact that most of the people, playing most of the games most of the time are not on xbl servers.. they are playing on that 3rd party game server.
Msft is selling people something they aren’t getting, sony sells exactly what they say is being sold (and pays for itself, years worth every month, … I feel like I am stealing from sony really.)
Unfortunately due to the amount of time PSN spends having maintenance its value for money is very low. I want to be able to play when i want not find that the system is down for maintenance again.
Frequent maintenance to continue offering more of the best games and services to almost 10 times more users than xbl and all while making sure we don’t have our identities and credit cards stolen every 7 minutes like on xbl….uh.. yes please?
Better security, service, and stability> being hacked on silly xbl.
The only time i have ever had my data at risk on a console was on my PS3. I have always bought both systems and do not have the hatred that you seem to have for one or the other. I game for fun, so have both systems to be able to take the best of both worlds.
Limiting yourself because of some unrepaid loyalty to a brand that doesn’t really even know you exist is ridiculous.
The maintenance that has been happening on the PS4 is not planned so trying to spin it as a positive is again ridiculous.
From my own personal experience two of the last three things you mention Security and stability have been better on the Xbox. The service offered by Sony has always been top class.
er… your data was at risk on ps3? how’s that? did you make your pw : 12345? or your pet’s name? or literally PassWord?…..
wait.. I bet I know what you are going to reference.. the “great hack” of psn right? where NO USER ACCOUNT DATA WAS ACTUALLY ACCESSED according to the FBI…..Which was resolved fairly swiftly (srsly.. they rebuilt the entire PSN after that) and just in case there was a 1 million dollar insurance for every user, and compensation for something that wasn’t even being payed for at the time.
While it is obvious you have a slight Bias to Playstation i will try to have a conversation with you.
As i stated quite clearly my playstation was at risk. I did not lose any data but did have to go through the inconveniance of changing all my passwords as advised by Sony. If i remember correctly Sony also gave a free game as an apology for the inconvenience, which was welcomed.
The new super dooper PSN you referred to was hacked again as recently as August, hmmmm.
I have said before i own and enjoy both consoles. I can see the benefits of both consoles and because i do ot limit myself i can access the best games on both consoles. I do not care about 1080p, I do not that i have to pay a yearly subscription (to both).
Gaming is about fun and enjoyment with friends, a lot of people this gen seem to have lost that and get their kicks from antagonising others over their choices.
Enjoy your console as i enjoy both of mine.
that wasn’t hack.. fyi, was a DDoS.. which NOTHING can prevent, and is itself not a security threat.
I have no bias for or against a company in this industry, My bias is for or against a product, based solely on its capabilities costs, or lack thereof.
It’s ok, I understand you aren’t as knowledgeable on the subject, but again, please refrain from inserting your misconceptions as though they were fact.
Your manner on forums certainly requires work. I had a look through some of your previous posts and it appears that i am not the first person to call you up on some of your so called factual statements.
I wonder how much time you have actually spent using the Xbox, probably little to none though im sure you will state otherwise.
Its a shame as your prejudice is stopping you from experience some great games.
That’s your choice though which you are free to make.
So enjoy what you have, i wish you many hours of happy gaming.
ah, deflection.. you forget (since you have read all my posts) I own an xb1 at my shop, anything I need to play on it I play there, and run side by side against ps4 and 2 tiers of PC builds all for customers to SEE the differences.
Business must be slow if you have time to play on your Xbox. I did say how much time you spend using the Xbox, never stated you didn’t have one.
Anyway i will leave this here although i await your final reply as i know that you will want the final say. Thank you.
still avoiding the foundation of your argument eh? Nice job forgetting about that.
anyways, yes, I do have time in the store I own to play the xb1 in it, and time is allotted to all of my employees to use the equipment we sell as I would prefer they have an experienced understanding of the products and not just the tested knowledge of them, unlike certain large chain stores who have “geeks” and “genius” types hovering about like used car salesmen, lacking even the most basic knowledge on the product or tech involved and only caring about that one sale. Been doing fine for 31 years with a customer base covering 9 towns… I think I’m doing just fine.
What has any of that blowing your own trumpet nonsense you’ve just spouted have to do with psn being superior in your opinion? More like you think YOU are superior, and your opinion is the only one that matters, it must frustrate the s*#t out of you seeing us in subordinate lowlives having our own opinions and not cowtailing to yours.. I bet you’ve gone all pink with rage that somebody who doesn’t own a shop(big deal mate get over yourself) could possibly disagree with you. Owning a shop for however many years is irrelevant come to think of it so are you and I feel like I’ve wasted 2 minutes of my life on trying to converse with you. Ownership of a game shop obviously doesn’t promote intelligence eh?
I learned long ago to not argue with PS fans. I own every every sytem and have 4 TVS in my living room for my family and the only obvious difference in PS/XB history is the original XB has noticeably better graphics than PS2. The 360/PS3 and XB1/PS4 games look the same, i’ve played dozens of them side-by-side. I have no preference as both companies have excellent exclusives, but in the end both have games that make me think “this is the most beautiful blah blah blah…” The only reasons I prefer XB is the controller feels far superior (just my opinion) and XB live has always been way more appealing TO ME. Both companies make great systems and games that push the other to respond, and they constantly one-up each other…to our (the non-biased) advantage. Choosing one side means you’re missing out.
like you did by stating you can only get free games with gold which is not true, you come across badly here dude.
Did you just wait a whole year to be wrong? Go shill elswhere.
You’re a horrible troll. Particularly when you run your uninformed childish brand-loyal (pathetic no matter what platform you’re freely spamming for) BS mouth about uptime & security.
= one of the largest data/user breaches of all time, including CC#’s.
we could go on and on and on and on, but you’re just some pathetic kid that’s trolling an Xbox article that doesn’t even mention PS.
Grow up. Get some hair. Go outside. Get laid. Do something.
Finally a comment i can agree with. Well said.
stfu Sony fan boy!
If you remember ps3 everything went down for like 2 months where nobody could get online to do anything xbox has not had that happen during the time ive owned one granted i still enjoy my ps4 and xbox one just the same as any other system ive ever had because theyre just games and its just for fun if it were real life shit going on that would be a different story.
That was psn, hacked in 2011, was down for 27 days, could still play games, and use apps and any onl e game that didn’t use psn for services. 27 days… not a single account looked at let alonr stolen from. While there has not been a single period lime that on xbl, xbl hets brought down by hacking more frequently and in total far more than 27 days… the cumulative number of days either system has been down shows xbl down significantly more, on top of being less secure (an account is highjaked every 7 minutes on xbl, and issue that has happened even to top brass accounts. It’s funny, because people like to talk about how msft has all these servers (but xbl gets less than 1% of these to operate on in reality). They claim it better because it has been forcibly taking subscription money for nearly a decade already. It has far fewer users and far less mefia and services to bog it down. And yet, it is slower than psn, don more often, and less secure (second to steam in this regard).
None of these systems are immune to the whims of these ddos kids, but an argument can easily be made as to which is better or worse. Which has more uptime? Which has more account theft due to their own security flaws and not the individual’s? Which consistently has faster download speeds? Which has more media and services? Which costs more or less?
It was Sony that got hacked and everyone’s details were stolen causing the psn to close not xbl doofus, facts mate do you know any?
All you prove with your obvious bias is that playstation is in its entirety a fanboy console as you won’t be swayed by pesky facts in your unwavering defence for a poorly developed machine. I too used to be a fanboy for Sony advocating all then I realised Sony have consistently taken the p*s# out of the consumer, by rushing the release of ps3 and the birth of psn they didn’t seem to worry about hackers, thinking instead nobody would dare…. Epic fail, I’ve had all Sony consoles up to the ps3 and the catastrophic hack drama then I sold it and got an Xbox 360 and now have and xbox 1 which allows me to use cross platform xbl and share it with everyone on my home network so there are 3 of us with gold for £6 a month.
2 times as many users mate or do you really think 500 million people are on psn……. Fanboy.
dude….remember when psn was down for like 2 months because they got hacked and user data was getting released.
27 days, no user data eas even accessed let alone stolen by the hack, still they rebuilt psn, offered insurances (which none had been requested) and gave users, who pay nothing for use of their network, free ps plus time and games…. (weird how evidence discovered and reported by the FBI is different than your misconception of a tale……)
I know this is a later response but I’m going to point something out. Try to look at it with an open mind. Mind you I’m not taking a side in this debate but i do want to note that if data wasn’t in danger in the latest hack then why offer insurance why even need it. The fact that they offered insurance shows that they were worried about data having fallen into someones hands where it didn’t belong. In all honesty I agree when people say that Xbox live is much more stable.
Because it is prudent, rather than only reacting if or when there is a problem they took action in the case of such, a contingency. The FBI had already proven that account data hadn’t even been looked at, let alone accessed. When we question these claims these people make, and search them out, we chip away the tales and get to the truth, and it is in this truth that we learn xbl is not what they believe it is.
In the end it still comes down to worry even if its prudent. Its the worry about what if i dont do something and something bad happens. In this case it was better safe then sorry is basically what you are saying. How many companies run into the same security issues as many times as sony. Does gmail have issues keeping things secure, what about Dropbox, or better yet Samsung. Have you ever heard of the google play store getting hacked? The answer is no its cause they keep things tight and work hard to protect you. I know what you are gonna say those are all massive corporations and have money to spend on that stuff. But then the question is when does it become negligent. Do you think its wise to wait till you have a serious issue to start investing in proper security. Think of it as leaving the house unlocked while your on vacation. Would you leave you house open? I have no beef with Sony i do not care what you opinion i am only here for cold hard Facts and the fact is as of right now i do not have any trust in sony security and nothing you say will change that.
Daily…. this is more dramatized and oversensationalized, as is common for the poor media who are worried more about views and less about the actual news.
http://money.cnn.com/2015/02/02/technology/security/sony-playstation-hack/ just gonna leave this here for you to read. Note this is coming from a trusted source and the person interviewed is a longtime sony user.
I don’t have an XBox, but I do have a PS3 and PS4 (Mainly on PC, though) and I have to say, that PSN is one of the worst services I’ve ever used.
Often unstable and all kinds of different issues with it.
280 million people say otherwise…
You sure? Did you ask them?
When you look at the internet and even Playstation forums, then you can see so many people, who have issues with one thing or another. (A lot of those issues being things, which shouldn’t be a problem)
Were issues tangible and serious, these would no longer be active members, it is clearly better than others.
Sadly that’s not true. There are so many examples of terrible services having more active users than proper services.
Lol, you are telling me people are saying “oh, this thing sucks, let’s use it”.
Not exactly, I hope.
People put up with terrible services, it seems, when they have to, to get that small part, which they wanted.
Even I put up with some terrible services, if I don’t have another choice.
You haven’t lived enough yet, I guess, to notice these things, but you will.
Lol…it’s psn, they have many choices, not just the user, but the developers and publishers get to choose if they use psn at all or not…. it’s not at all like living in an area where there is no other cable company so they can bilk you for standard services.
And don’t try pulling the wise old man game on me kid.
There is no game. If you haven’t noticed a lot of people using services, which tend to often have issues, then you either haven’t been around long enough or have been interestingly lucky to not have noticed.
Usually it’s the first. Simple as that.
Wtf are you talking about? Do you actually have a point? I certainly never said it, nor any service has been free of issues, I am in fact saying quite the opposite, as well as how drastically the comparative rlation of them are.

This is a part of a message I got from Microsoft about some accident with a try to log into my account.
Im using Sony console for 1 year, and I never got anything like that.
I was having X360 for few years, but now I dont want XOne.
I decided to get PS4, not because PS+ is better or something, cuz Im not using it anyway.
I like PS4 games more than games that are coming to XOne.
Pozdro dla kumatych.
I’ve never been hacked on my 360 or one but have have 2 friends get the ps info stolen and got charged lots…. Doesn’t mean it’s not a good system but you can’t just say stupid stuff about Xbox just cause you’re not a fan of it loser!
Hm… way to run about name calling when your fake story didn’t hold up.
Even msft brass had their xbl accounts hacked…. and stop making your psn passwords “1234” and “password”… thorough investigations are conducted by sony, who pay for losses and then some if they find they are at fault…. that has never been found though even by the FBI….
Bet you didn’t think I would snipe your little fanboy comment here posting months after the fact did ya? Get a clue kid.
oh i see you just a fanboy looser console defender.
Holy full retard fanboy…. like msft you came here a day late and a dollar short.
Some games are free without gold as I have purchased them without a gold membership.
Not all launch day DLC is evil. There’s a period of time where they actually have to make all the packaging and disks, and send them out everywhere. They all have to have the same version, which means the devs have a cut-off point to work on the main game.
In that between period, when the copies are being created and distributed to various stores, they work on DLC. It keeps them employed, makes the publisher some more cash, and adds content for the gamers.
It isn’t like they chop DLC chunks out of the game and ransom it back. That only happens on rare occasion.
Pretty poor nigga if u aint got xbl XD.
Wait, unless games are free with ads… WHO THE $#!T WOULD WANT TO DOWNLOAD “Gatorade Sports Performance Football Training Camp”.
It’s literally $25. Stop being a cheap ass and just go buy some. It’s not much and they’re always having sales and free games to gold so you can’t act like they don’t treat us well either.
So you are complaining that you need xbox live to get a game and not soend actual money on the gane itself the idea of the game being free is you paid 60$ to use live and you are not paying for the game itself you get multiple games depend8ng on what live you get so you are getting the games for free just not the ability to download and play them right away quit your bitching and grow up.
Free on All other platforms.
How many of those run at 1080p?
Er, every game on my Android runs at 1080p. It is a lot easier to run 10000 polygons in 1080p than 100000 polygons in 720p.
Perhaps I did not made myself clear. How many of those run at 1080p ON THE XBOX ONE? Because the last time I checked. It can’t even run Angry Birds at 1080p but the PS4 version does.
Bear, dont be bitter, darkich was just being an smartass. You are right, this pos dont run any of those @ 1080p.
Damn, X1 can’t play Angry Birds at 1080p??
Yeah, either that was one lazy port or.. That’s it.
I will have to say its a lazy port. If not damn.
meh…… EA needs to bring C&C to a downloadable client instead of the script version they offer.
I’m seeing reports that some large retailers are knocking $50 off of the price of the XB1 (bundled with Sunset Overdrive IIRC). Supposed to last through at least January per info on IGN and TechCrunch. Between that and these “free” games, MS is getting serious about trying to revive market interest after their flop of a launch. I sort of wonder if Sony will be able to match the price drop because, although PS4 selling very well is making them money, it is damn near the ONLY thing making them money right now and they are in hot water as a company overall. Whatever the case, as a consumer I am glad to see increasing competition for my $$$.
It’s kind of funny that despite Sony’s TV division has been bleeding money for many, many years, they’re still holding onto that one while letting others go. Despite all their attempts, their smartphone and TV divisions are still regularly posting losses as usual.
It’s kind of surprising to see Sony struggle as much as they have, especially with their TVs. Only ten years ago were they the de facto brand for your TV needs. They were researching cutting edge technologies like S-LCD which was sold off to HTC and OLED which they’re no longer pursuing it seems… Or maybe they are, but their Vita OLED screens are nowhere near the quality of Samsung’s (I have one… screen burns etc. galore)
10 years ago some key things happened, companies like samsung began hitting the market hard with reverse engineered sony tech, for a fraction of the cost and were able to price it far lower. Sony’s real issue is failing to lock down their R&D on displays as much as they should have and gone after blatant copies, or having sold off/shared said tech after piling cash into its R&D.
Hahaha they all stole their tech from Sony did they? You’re sounding desperate now…..
I am speaking of displays only.. ( but really, most if what all the consoles are doing is iwed to sony anyways..) wash away the silly trademarks and branded terms, look inly at the tech itself and the timing of each, and it becomes clear.. if I want the most bang for my buck on a mid range display=samsung. If I want the best image possible regardless of price=sony. Thag is simply the way things are, and people do shop by those filters.
Also, why would I be despirate??
Nvm, just realized you are one of them fanboys, an xbot to be specific, who will interject into anything pro sony, nintendo, or pc that doesn’t give overly gratuitous praise to the console brand you emotionally attached your lack of self-esteem to.
I’m a fan of watching morons take the time to bash each other over stupid shit but he’s right.
actually, many retailers have been doing -$50 to -$100 no xb1 and bundles since as early as late Jan 2013… Me being one of them (along with a free 8th gen console of choice with 4k Display purchase).
Sony won’t drop prices, they quite famously bragged about how they can take the p*#s out of consumers because they are Sony (can’t afford a playstation get another job….. Remember that??) I’m not going to say the xb1 is better than the ps4 it was just my preference of Xbox that made me purchase it I honestly don’t care about differences between the two, I care about the quality I receive and couldn’t give a monkeys whether or not psn works or ps4 has 2 more polygons and can play angry birds in 1080p as that would be the equivalent of polishing a gaming turd (great graphics do not a good game make my old son) be lucky go outside take a breath and smile, you are alive and the real world is in HD x.
Giving away 10 Xbox Live Gold codes all this week on my blog. This is for one FREE month of xbox live. Don’t miss out.
We need an article detailing and explaining about the Cancellation of F.E.A.R. Online, how they are shutting the servers down for good sometime in the middle of May 2015.
The one reason I read is many people were in game hacking and the moderators can’t keep up with the patching. Too bad, the game is actually good.
i really dont care about the best, where is the list for all the free games.
No kidding. I don’t understand why Microsoft makes it so hard to find games on the XB1. The on-system store has no sort or filter options and the web store isn’t much better.
Warframe is a complete waste of time. You can’t effectively solo it and you will never find players in the lobbies to get a co-op game going. Just avoid it.
I favoured the x-box over the ps2 as preferred the games such as championship manager and KOTOR 1 & 2, Never really bothered with the 360 after I bought my ps3 apart from for Mass Effect 1 and 2. I got the ps4 before the X-box one but disappointed with it and ordered X-box one a day after. I have only really played Watchdogs, Thief and Arkam night on ps4 but played loads on x-box one have no real preference other online experience but prefer the PSN store. Console wise the X-box one fits my needs most. I have gold for the x box one and EA hub, but don’t have a PSN subscription although have considered it for free games alone.
then go get gold cheap ass bitch I’m more than happy with my yearly subscription of gold.
I really don’t care which company is better. It is a matter of opinion not fact. Both companies make good consoles. I personally enjoy the Xbox as most of my friends do as well and it has good quality. Also in the time that Microsoft has made 3 consoles (Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One) to compete with Sony, Sony has made 4 consoles (PlayStation, PS2, PS3, and PS4) and 2 handheld consoles (PlayStation Portable, and PlayStation Vita) but Microsoft is still their main company to “Battle” with. I also have a few friends who have recently switched from the PlayStation 4 to the Xbox One. So, while everyone is busy debating about which is better, you can try them out for yourself and just take in the vast and glory of both of the consoles because they are both unique in their very own way. I have also recently bought a new Xbox One console (Forza Motorsport 6 Edition) and I have to say that it is one of my favorite consoles that I have ever used. It also sounds like a racecar as the special power up and power down sounds so that is a really cool feature as well :)
These are Freemium games not Free.
Don’t forget the new Fable Legends is F2P!
Please don’t call world of tanks historical :)
It may be free to download and maybe free to play, but not totally free. Microtransactions galore or grind fest. Besides, a lot of these free games are already on PC which is already a superior console err i mean platform (excluding some of the crappy console ports).
Now if only Evolved was free I’d actually play that. Why do I say that? Because a lot of the aesthetic skins in the game are locked behind a paywall. $60 for the game + $15 for content that you ALREADY paid for? That’s pushing it.
World of Tanks, I don’t think I ever hated a game so bad and yet I kind of like the feel of the tanks. But the terrible mm and wallet warriors, along with the some bias for Russian tanks.
before i got gold again i downloaded tomb raider definitive edition and it required gold to play so they are not free at all so you grant need to get ya facts right am with you on that one mirimon.
Great news that DCUO is coming to Xbox. Ive been telling my Xbox friends abou this game for years. Plus it gives me a chance to grab the names i never managed to get on PS3 and 4.
dont be stupid when something is free it cost 0. there for it is free, all games with gold are free the games in this list are free. if game shops took all their games and said come take what you want they are frrreeee, you can not turn around a say oh none of its free cos I had to pay bus fare or to play these I have to buy an xbox. your an idiot free is free. now what does cost is xbox live gold and for that price you are paying for eeso Microsoft feature inding most online features.

Same problem here; got our dev team working on it. Sorry for the inconvenience! (It’s intermittent, too; a refresh sometimes brings it up for me, which is even weirder.)
Okay, this problem should disappear over the next few minutes. Thanks for reporting.

6 Co-Op Games for Xbox One.
1. Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare.
You've come to know and love the peashooters and sunflowers of the original Plants vs. Zombies (and you've probably logged more hours with them than you care to admit). With the Xbox One, you can take this delightful tower defense game to the big screen. Play Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare online alongside other plants or as part of the zombie horde. The game will also offer an online co-op for four players, in addition to an offline split screen co-op just for the Xbox One.
Available Spring 2014 ($39.99).
2. Project Spark.
Remember when you played in the sandbox with your friends as a kid? Remember how you built beautiful castles and staged epic battles? Project Spark is that same sandbox, but rather than grains of sand, pixels are your playthings. This game lets you create whatever wild game world you want, with a unique look and your own set of rules. For co-op, you can share your creations with friends or work on the same game together.
Available for Xbox One beta January 2014.
3. Call of Duty: Ghosts.
With the launch of Call of Duty: Ghosts on the new generation of consoles, the crew at Activision and Infinity Ward have made huge leaps in how you work with and against other players. The newest entry in the franchise has seven new multiplayer modes and 20 new killstreaks. Ghosts is also making a first foray into dynamic environments, so you can blow up a gas station or flood a map to change the course of a match.
Available Nov. 5, 2013 ($59.99).
4. Need for Speed Rivals.
The next generation of consoles is opening new possibilities in the world of driving games. Rather than simply push for better and better times on set courses, developers are blending single player and multiplayer driving with an open world experience. Need for Speed Rivals is one such example, and it will be available just days before the Xbox One launch. This game lets you cross into your friends' games, giving a co-op edge to the wild chases and competitions on the street.
Available Nov. 19, 2013 ($59.99).
5. Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag.
Pirates? Stealth? Multiplayer? You can have it all in Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag . The multiplayer gameplay feels more like a mind game than a show of brute strength. On top of the free-for-all and team options of previous titles, Black Flag lets you team up with other players for a co-op experience in the Wolfpack mode. Outthink your enemies and strategize with your friends to stay alive.
Available Oct. 29, 2013 ($59.99).
6. Just Dance 2014.
The classic party game has been amped up thanks to the new capabilities of the Kinect controller. Up to six people can perform together in Just Dance 2014 , and they won't all be doing the same choreography. Ubisoft also added online multiplayer for the first time, so you can compete for glory on the World Dance Floor. If busting a move isn't your thing, play the part of Party Master and direct the show, posing challenges and picking new songs for the dancers.
Available Nov. 19, 2013 ($49.99).
Whether you're piled on the couch together or locking horns in an online multiplayer adventure, nothing quite compares to the fun of gaming with your friends. Thanks to the technological advances coming in the next generation of consoles, gamers will have many new co-op experiences at their fingertips this fall.
The Xbox One, which hits shelves Nov. 22, has several titles that push the bounds of what gamers can do together. From the casual to the hardcore, players of all kinds can find something to enjoy. These six titles are bringing new ideas and new multiplayer fun to the living room. Several will also be available on PC or PlayStation 4, but some are exclusive to the Microsoft camp.
