The left thumbstick on my controller is slightly broken (it tends to always be pushing up) and so I just had a quick live chat with Amazon. The guy told me that they couldn't replace or repair it but was I happy with a 15% refund on the entire bundle that I bought? £64! Hell yes Kenred, I am very happy with that, especially as my controller still mostly works and you sell new Xbone controllers for £35. :lol:

Amazon. :wub:

I'd also advise getting EA access in the apps store and paying for a year cos thats 4 games instantly for £1.70 a month (£20 per year) - Battlefield 4, FIFA 14, Madden 25, Peggle 2 and in a few weeks Need for Speed Rivals.

As exclusives go, Titanfall and Dead rising 3 are no brainers also.

Whats your gamertag and ill hit you up?

im x PHOTEK x

Crimson Dragon and Super Time force are free this month also, AND as said above you can download Forza 5 for free, and it closes Sunday night.


Thanks, Photek. I'm just plain old jamcc. I thought I already had you on my friends lost, to be honest.

I tried the DR3 demo a while back on a friend's machine. I hated it. The organisation of demos on the Xbox One dashboard doesn't seem very intuitive, is basically what I was saying.

What? No. They are complaining about not being able to advertise Destiny and saying it's dodgy with the whole bad smell thing. That is one of their own tactics :lol: Plus the whole Tomb Raider timed exclusive deal is loads worse than still getting the game but not advertise it. Desperately trying to smear Sony but making themselves look worse in the process.

Whats to read? unless you posting some myserious back story in another thread its all on this page. You're actually mental. Smear Sony? strawberry floating Tomb Raider? It's clever work around to advertise Destiny for Xbox One, I honestly can't see what on earth you are on about.

Maybe point out exactly whats stupid about it for me, cos I can't see it.

Damn - that's from Microsoft! Endorsed and Promoted on their twitter account. This viral marketing advert, and the free game offer they are doing in the Destiny launch week is significant as it shows they feel they need to do better in Destiny sales, maybe PS4 preorders are of the charts? Maybe its the case that the Destiny adverts have got the public thinking it's a PlayStation exclusive and they need to combat that but I think that ad will only be seen by gamers.


I did actually think it to be funny but this line spoils the joke...

"Destiny is actually an epic new first-person shooter, available on Xbox. Thing is, we didn’t have permission to run adverts for the game. So we didn’t."


They are claiming to be the hard-done by victims! :fp: Considering the Rise of the Tomb Raider deal that just makes them look two-faced.

Go on the site and click "Discover More". They are complaining about not being able to advertise the game and saying that it is dodgy. MS use those exact same tactics and worse.
