Bayonetta runs at a locked 60fps on X1 I believe, runs very well anyway as have it on disc, nice to get digital version. Slime Rancher is very highly ranked on Steam (10/10) so it could've worth a gander

What's that Red Faction game like? Any good?

EDIT: D'oh, missed Trelliz's comment on it above. Maybe I'll leave that one then :lol:


There's a reason there hasn't been a Red Faction since; imagine taking the previous game's big open world with fun destruction and turning it into a piece of gooseberry fool linear cover shooter with a dumb plot and generic space bug enemies.


I actually enjoyed Armegeddon way more than the borefest that came before it.

Only thing I liked about the previous game was the Ultor stuff you break at the beginning.

Well, at least my Xbox Live subscription is good for playing Battlefront online.

As always I pretty much played every 360 game, but never got Bayonetta so that is good. Trails will be fun, but that slime game looks like this month's Go Home - a game I could not get along with. I though the Red Faction game was alright in a generic action game type of way. The series was like the Lost Planet games, everyone seemed to be different from the last for no apparent reason.

Oh man Lost Planet - I wanted to get into that but i had to stop because my eyes were hurting from everything being white and overlaid with more snowstorms, it was genuinely unpleasant to play.

Diablo 3's Ultimate Evil Edition is available for free on Xbox One this weekend for Xbox live Gold subscribers, as part of Microsoft's Free Play Days promotion.

The Ultimate Evil Edition of the game includes the transformative Reaper of Souls expansion, which propelled Blizzard's action RPG from flawed classic to actual greatness.

Also this weekend, the Diablo 3 Eternal Collection will be available to buy from the Xbox Store with a 35 per cent discount, reducing it from £60 to £39. This includes everything from the Ultimate Evil Edition, plus the recent Rise of the Necromancer pack which introduced the Necromancer class to the game. Saves are compatible, so you can use this to keep playing after the free weekend ends. Xbox Live will also keep any progress made and achievements earned during the free weekend if you decide to come back to Diablo 3 later.

Both offers are live now and will remain so until 8am on Tuesday morning, UK time.

Weird thing was Lost Planet 2 - co-op, set in tropical locations and inside buildings. Not like the first game!

Yeah but he likes to refer to is as "Slime Ranching" it sounds better.

"Great night last night, went "Slim Ranching" at least 4 times".

How is Xbox One S as a 4K Blu-ray player?

Any differences between it and an expensive high end player?

Not bothered about 4K gaming outside VR, but cinema quality remasters of Terminator 2 and Bladerunner have me pumped :datass:
