Dam Scandinavians coming over here taking out xbox ones, its the bloody vikings all over again i tell you

I've ordered one from the UK too (being sent to Brussels) for some reason they delayed the XO in Belgium too.... But it’s ok because I am originally from the UK

I've never had an issue logging into my GT or accessing the UK live store from Belgium. I hope they don't have some form of region lock for the XO for live otherwise I will be rather annoyed

Who's this from? IGN?

 

[Monster]

Just ordered from asda, thanks for the heads up. Was going to go playstation but the DNLA thing ****ed me off as its 50% of what I use my consoles for!

Expand on this please, whats the current status of streaming from a NAS on these devices?

Ryse: Son of Rome

I highly suspect that Ryse is being held back to thursday because it's going to be awful and they don't want people to cancel pre-orders due to crap reviews.

But that's just a suspicion I have

Can't be much worse than Knack!

I expect it to score similarly to Knack (thought it would be those two which would score lowest for both consoles from the start)

 

[Tummy]

Part of me really hopes that Zoo Tycoon is released again on PC, loved the original so much!

 

[bemaniac]

On regards of Very.co.uk. I have been with these for 2 years and they have never let me down, truly awesome service with everything i have ordered from them.

Remember, shops sell through Very, so some things are out of their hands.

refreshing to know but ironically I now have £450 cash and don't really need very. If it doesnt come fri or sat im off to hunt for one.

Leave Knack alone Still want that game lol, a lot of streamers having fun with it. So even if Ryse scores similarly, might still be a fun game.

Knack looks fun, not sure why it's getting all the hate. Even streamers say it's fun.

 

[Metalface Mark]

All my senses tell me Zoo Tycoon should score terribly, the one thing thats making me think otherwise is David Braben and they are good at these kind of games at Frontier Developments (Enjoyed Thrillville/Rollercoaster Tycoon).

Im guessing it will get about a 7.

I'm just going by some of the reviews. If people are liking it, it's all good

 

[Tummy]

That review line up looked interesting until I saw that it was IGN .

It looks alright, i thought it just looked a bit too much like skylanders (nothing wrong with that) I'm sure younger gamers will love it the general opinion seems to be that its okay to play but they cut scene the really fun bits, leaving you plodding along with rinse and repeat gameplay.

Im sure all the others will be out similar time, its when the embargo's end i think.

What is wrong with IGN ?
Serious question btw.
