That's kinda the point though. Crazy pointless mindless fun. Just like Dead Rising.

That probably explains why I didn't like dead rising either xD so yeah.. you guys can play that.. I'll be over here playing my shadow of mordor and bf4 :p :D
 
Is it just me or are the Xbox games a little cheaper than their counterparts in the online stores. Just saw Madden 15 now on Xbox one for 599. PS3 version is 899

Assuming you meant it's PS4 counterpart?

And yes, when it comes to each ones online store, I have noticed quite a bit of a price difference. Sometimes I have even picked up a margin of around R100-R150.

And even more, there is a price difference of about R100 between the Xbox online store and BT Games, with BT Games being much more expensive. It seems that the Xbox online store is close to the cheapest you can get games. Be warned though, there are certain games that have ridiculous pricing on Xbox, like Wolfenstein being R1000 for the base game, yet the same game everywhere else retails at about R700

Not to mention the download size. One game download and I'm about ready to top-up my internet cap.

I just meant Sony. I am finding it more and more ridiculous to pay 750 to 900 for ps3 games. When next gen Xbox games are cheaper. Ps4 is also 899 for the big releases. It's insane.
 
Who here is using EA access? R300 a year and you get free games with it as well as like 10% off some titles currently a couple free games which include bf4, nfs rivals, madden 25, fifa 14 and PvZ: garden warfare

EA Access

I don't think the games are free per se, just for a limited time. Like a rental service. Access to the full games for a limited time is better than a demo. But given the size of games, the length of time it will take to download. I personally don't think it's worth it, unless you have like a 10mbps line. But for me, average joe with a capped account, no thanks!

From EA access website said:
Binge on EA's best Xbox One games, including Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, FIFA 14, Battlefield 4, Need for Speed Rivals, Peggle 2, and Madden NFL 25, with more titles being added over time. That's more than $150 worth of games for just $4.99 a month. Play as much as you want—you’ll never run out of fun.

But yeah.. the whole needing to download the game is still a hassle.. so my plan is just to fetch the already downloaded games from friends:D

Well considering I began downloading Forza 5 (52gb) when I got my Xbone, 3 days later it was done. I have a 4mbps line unshaped unthrottled, so yarr... the above would be fun! <--sarcasm
 
So far the reviews of Sunset Overdrive is looking good. At the moment it's commanding a 83% on Metacritic. These reviews makes me want this game even more!!!! Can't wait to get it.

Yeah, I watched IGN and Game Spot reviews, both rate it fairly high. If that's anything to go by. I must say though, I am super hyped for this title, more so than any other title I have been.
 
Yeah, the US has dropped pricing on the Xbox One till January I hear. Think they're selling a Sunset Overdrive console bundle for $350 which equates to the amount you said. Damn good price.
 
I been watching a lot of Sunset Overdrive vids, reviews etc. Some really great reviews/coverage they been getting. Happy I'll be picking this up tomorrow ^_^
