Loving the cover with all the characters. Looks like our very own Rudderless has a couple of articles in this issue.

Edge are largely full of banana splits. I stand by my statement.

There wasn't a better publisher last year though...

Best story telling :lol:

Did they only play Her Story for the 30 minutes or so where everything holds together?

What other big exclusives actually came out on the Xbox One last year? I can't even remember. I'm guessing there was a Forza game.

Ori and the Blind Forest reviewed well. Also, Halo 5 was pretty damn good.

Haven't paid much attention to Edge in about a decade. Stuff like the above makes me realise why... I know it's opinions and all, and Edge's opinions rarely ever reflect mine.

It probably isn't considered an exclusive as its coming to PC and PS4.

Being as it was 2015 and wasn't available for any other platform Id class it as a exclusive.

You aren't Edge + it was already announced it was coming to other formats so it isn't something Edge could back pedal on later.

You aren't Edge.

I know, thank god. And Halo 5 wasn't even good.

Love that cover and interested in that Nintendo Land Time Extend. Might pick this up.

Did anyone buy that Edge 100 that came out recently? Don't remember seeing a thread about it.

What do they say about R6Siege
