Is Forza Motorsport 5 worth £25? Never played a Forza game before!

Yes, but you better like racing games other wise it gets boring after a week.

I can't wait for Project CARS

I normally only play arcade type racers, unsure, I keep hearing great things about the series - but I feel it may be wasted on me. I'll hang tight for now.

Having to return this xbox one to Microsoft, it's devoloped the famous grind of death on the disc drive, what surprise me even more is that it has to go all the way to Czech Republic.

unlucky. You would imagine that Microsoft would have somewhere closer to you than the Czech Republic

Did anyone else see the re-mastered cutscenes from H2:A that was on facebook.

I'm stunned

Looks good. From what I read it was re-mastered for 360 and held back for Xbox one. No idea if true but sounds likely.

 

[Shamikebab]

Shivers. That looks awesome

I would guess it was started but as its for the 10 years it would have made sense to wait for the XO. Cant blame them though, all 4 halo games on a single disc and server, works for me.

August sees Crimson Dragon and space-sim Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut coming to Games with Gold on Xbox One, while the Xbox 360 gets both Motocross Madness and the hit first-person stealther Dishonored.

Why are you "stunned"? Cut scenes can look as amazing as you like, you could even get actors to do them so they really are realistic ffs. I want to see gameplay.

They're not CGI though.

 

[Princey]

They're not CGI though.

They're pre-rendered and have been outsourced to a 3rd party called Blur.

Lol come on mate be serious for a second. There is about 60 seconds of gameplay of halo 2 from e3 on YouTube. It's looks average at best.

 

[MOOGLEYS]

Halo 2 Anniversary will look like Halo 1 anniversary

Halo 1, 3 & 4 have been upscaled to 1080p but nothing else added.

This is what I can gather from reading around. ?

 

[deltalinx]

I never got in Halo I didn't see what all the fuss was about with the hype of it. Mediocre games.

 

[deltalinx]

OK I got the preview dashboard and registered. Do I have to wait now to download update? What new features are there?

 

[WiZZyWiGG]

Really looking forward to the Master Chief Collection, thats going on the birthday list!

In other news it seems I have managed to get the Xbox One integrated in to the living room with the family, having it control the TV seems to have gone down much better than I thought.

Controller won't stop disconnecting today. it's done it about 10 times.

Been having the same issue.

I tried a fresh pair of batteries instead of the play & charge kit battery, but it still does it.

Seems like either a fault with controller or the console, going to try get a hold of another controller to test it.

 

[MOOGLEYS]

Mine has been ok. I did find out today that when the batteries run low the controller disables the rumble functions..
