multiplayer gaming is ruining the gaming industry. fewer and fewer good stories.

The last really good story I played, was Kingdoms of Amalur.

Last of us is a pretty good story.

I said fewer and fewer.

Haven't been playing mine much.. Heard about targets buy 2 get 1 free and walked out with halo collection, cod, and assassins creed... Shit

Lol.

I think I'm going to pull the trigger on this bitch with the whole $50 off + $100 trade-in.

What sorcery is this?

Xbox One is temporarily $350 and M$ is giving you $100 for a working PS3/360.

That's without the Kinect, right?

Do you even need that bullshit? My roommate just likes it 'cause he can say "Xbox on" and it turns on. Gay and not worth $100 if that's all it's good for.

Heard the Master Chief Collection was a broken mess

As did I. Match making is completely broken.

It's more annoying than anything

Server side update is coming out this morning

Did you get that game?

Yup yup

When is this buy 2 get one free? Black Friday right?

This week... as in right now.

At Target. Right now.

Pretty much I can get an Xbox one brand new no kinect with forza 2 for $200.

I already have a PS4 and loved 360 - more so then ps3.

I actually wanted an xbox one last year but got the ps4 instead and very happy with that decision.

Is it worth it? The thought of having both systems intrigues me.

how are you finding one for $200? extra credit to burn?

100 trade in takes it to what 249. Then probably a 50 gift card/credit! Makes me almost want to pull the trigger.

who is taking trades of 100 for a xbox 360 other than MS store? Gamestop is still only giving $60 for it.

i would do the MS store if i had too, even 60 bucks though is a good thing. Also, with the console and the games you have with it, there has to be at least 40 bucks in old games.

I found it interesting that Gamestop still gives $100 for a PS3 but only $60 for 360. that makes no sense.

Yeah I'm just wondering if it's worth it. Really wanna play forza 2 and mc collection.

only thign i could think of is people keeping the hard drives and giving the stock 4gb ones in there.

Blu Ray player also has something to do with it I'm sure.

I like the kinect navigating and all the voice stuff. I think my room is too dark the majority of the time for the gestures to work so I don't really use them.

I also got my kinect on Ebay for like $50. Worth it for that if they ever come out with a good kinect based game or if I start using skype or something later on.

possibly, hell my blu ray player is in a box in my closet. There's virtually no need for it anymore. lol

GTAV on PS4/Xbone for $49.99...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Grand-Theft-...item462cd6209a

Well, made the jump. Couldn't make up my mind between PS4 or One. With the systems being similar, boiled down to most of the people I play with are making the move to Xbox One.

Got what I felt was a good deal.

System with Kinect, 2 Assassin's creed games, and just dance for $429. I'm not big on the AC games, but my boys love them. Wife loves the just dance. The Kinect thus far is actually pretty cool. Lot better than I expected.

Oh yeah, also grabbed a year of live for $30.

I also got a One.

And picked up Advanced Warfare, Just Dance '15 and got Marvel Heroes essentially free. Thanks Toys R' Us.

Let's game bitches!

Just baught a One. Is Gamestop the best place to trade in my old PS4? I have the original version with several 5-7 year old games.

Not sure if it was on sale or rang up wrong but just got Dead Rising 3 for $30 at Best Buy.

Just got the Unity bundle with Master Chiefs collection for $230 plus trade in of my original 360 that's been gathering dust for quite awhile now. Helluva deal that I just couldn't pass up. Suggestions on must have XB1 exclusives that I should get? The two that came to my mind were Dead Rising and Forza, but what am I missing?

I'm guessing you meant PS3 since you're talking about 5-7 year old games...your best bet was probably to do the $100 trade in credit through Microsoft, but it sounds like it may be too late for that. I traded in my original 360 in that deal after checking into Best Buy who offered me $4 for my 360, seriously $4, and Gamestop and Amazon each offered around $30-35. I checked eBay and the ones just like mine were all in the 80-100 range, but that's a bit more of an ordeal and I'm not sure how much they take in fees.

If anyone is still on the fence there is a Xbox One Assassin's creed bundle with a free game for 330.

This is the deal I bit on today with my trade in of my original 360 for another 100 off. Awesome deal.

I can already see my 500gb hard drive filling up fast.

Yep, I wish I knew about that deal one week ago.

Yeah I am reading on IGN that Xbox One dwarfed sales by 53% of the market on Black Friday with PS4 around 31%..

Close to 11million units are expected to be sold this holiday because of the bundles. They are already well on their way from what I am reading elsewhere and MS shipping that many stateside.

Xbox will never overtake on a global scale, but it is nice to seem them finally pressing here though.

What they need to do is buy Capcom. Buy Capcom and a lot of Japan would crumble into buying. Or give up on gaming.

Good. It was always a pity when i played ghosts to see 20k on the one and switch over to the 360 to see 100k on the same game.

Man, that free game on XBL, Volkaar the Viking is so ****ing frustrating. LMAO

Pulled the trigger on this last Monday. Free game was Dragon Age, and found used copies of AW and Destiny at Hastings for $66 total.

Console comes in tomorrow. CAN'T WAIT.

There is some worm game that is free this month that my kids absolutely love. Might give it a try tonight.

Don't know if it's already been posted but earlier this week I found out HBO GO is finally on the one

I really wore that game out on steam.
Shit is so unforgiving.

The check point system is so maddening.

Worth a get though?

It's free.

Right. I'm trying to figure out if frustrating is a good or bad thing.

If you don't like brutally challenging games like Ghosts and Goblins, mega man, etc --- skip it.
It's free.... how about download it and try it?

I might. I was wondering because of the lack of space. Its amazing how much space these games take up.

Idiots

Got an XBOX1 for Baby Jesus' birthday to go along with a year Live membership. Perhaps I will wait a few before activating it.

Now I have to see you here, on Facebook, and on Xbox.....someone doesn't like me.:p

I think my login name will be Bad Penny. :hmmm:

Oh, so he can stick you in one of those penny stretching machines for 50cents.

LMAO

btw my GT is Tsaunders 2x2

I've been trying to install Assassin's Creed, Unity and other games for two days now with no luck. I understand that Microsoft's network got hacked (nice, Microsoft) but does it always take days to download games? This is absurd.

I wouldn't bother trying to do anything until the network is back up.

Interesting, thanks. It says it's downloading but it's at a snail's pace.

How does Micosoft allow themselves to be hacked, especially on Christmas?

yeah, I'm with you there. After this happened to PSN a few years back I would have thought both learned from it. Complete bullshit that companies like Sony and Microsoft can have their networks killed by a DDOS attack. That should never happen.

I've had Madden 15 for two days. I haven't played a video football game in more than 20 years, which was Super Tecmo Bowl.

All I can say is that Madden hates Alex Smith.

He can't run, he can't complete passes, Bowe drops the ball when it hits him in the hands, Avery is awful and the running lanes for Jamaal suck.

The accuracy is crazy.

They didnt really get hacked, they just got their servers artificially overloaded by ****ing programs. There isnt much they can do for shit like this. Ddos attacks happen all the time to various companies. People just being dicks. lol

Well they have it all right on Alex except the he can't run part. LMAO

There isn't much they, or PS, can do for these types of attacks.

As far as MS goes, I haven't had any issues getting online since Xmas morning. Played online later that night and off and on all day yesterday. They may be having some issues with some services, but it looks like the core services have been up for awhile.

BUMP. Just got my XBONE for Christmas and looking for some mother****ers to game with.

Gamertag: E Man Ian

I'm in. The XBOX1 is freaking bad ass. I have no games as of yet (except the Assassin Creed games that came with), but a relative brought by Battlefield 4 which was just awesome on the 1. XBOX Live remembered my name from three or four years ago, too, which made me chuckle.

I've got an Xbox 360 and my Live subscription is about to run out. All I use it for is to watch Netflix. Do I still need Gold in order to watch Netflix on a 360?

Yes.

No

No he doesn't. Don't listen to this guy that buys monthly subs for XBL. He doesn't have a clue. LMAO

:hmmm:

Well, you've always needed a Gold subscription in order to watch Netflix on the 360. But I'm no longer looking to play games and only use it for the Netflix app. I've read that you no longer need Gold to watch Netflix since the XbOne came out but didn't know if that applied to the 360 as well now..

So which is it?

I suppose I could just let my subscription run out and see what happens..

Or maybe I'll Google it.

OK. It appears this is the correct answer.
