LocoCycle is less than $4 now on GamesDealDaily. If you have even a smidge of interest, just do it already.

All this talk about gwg so I decided to boot up castlestorm. played for 30 mins, mostly forcing myself to. now it's in my "ready to install" graveyard.

sadly I felt the same way with that game, it's not for me.

So since the other thread kinda died, what USB HDD should I pick up for my 360?

 

[MisterLuffy]

I wish I had gold, could've got Soul Calibur 2 for $4.99.

 

[pizzacat]

Is that rumor about massive chalice true? Why can't we just get knack

I bought a Toshiba STOR.E 1 TB drive and it's working great. I'm currently using the new external drive for downloaded games/DLCs and the 120GB internal one for disc installs and updates.

Could've? Does the deal change tomorrow or something?

 

[MisterLuffy]

I'm not sure, but my promotional balances are expiring and I have to buy something before it expires. Yesterday, me and my brother were searching for games since I have $9.51 left on my xbox account. He checked soul calibur 2, though it's $19.99, if you are a gold member then you can get it for that price.

Because Knack is not on X1 ??

Gotcha. Do trials not work for the deals?

Unfortunately I don't know, can anyone in this thread answer this question?

 

[im_dany]

Not for 360. I heard they work on X1 but haven't tried since I don't own the console.

 

[SURGEdude]

That's no excuse! The masses demand the game of the generation for free even if MS has to send in ninjas to steal the source code. Sony simply doesn't have a right to hog that gem forever. Maybe they can grab Killzone too while they're at it.

 

[Effigenius]

Tomb Raider has been discounted so heavily and so much recently that I expect it to be a GwG game pretty soon.

Yeah, and with the sequal coming this year, it has to be coming. Hopefully the xb1 version....

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Massive Chalice seems decent enough, but what happened to the rumour that it would be euther Mainline 5 or Ryse?

 

[mike4001_]

what happened to the rumour that it would be Ryse?

You mean the rumor that rises every month since the beginning of GwG

But I expect an E3 annoucement of some AAA GwG games.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

Xbox 360 already has been, a couple months back.

 

[Skilotonn]

Using a minimum 1-month card counts officially as XBL Gold for everything, nothing shorter than that.

 

[Doffen]

This month must bring Lococycle and Ryse!

 

[Akai__]

I care way more about the Xbox 360 titles, than the Xbox One titles to be honest. It will probably take a while, until we get really good titles with Xbox One GWG.

Anyways, I'm interested in the next month. Maybe they have some really good GWG for E3, who knows.

Nope, they had nothing during 1 year Xbox One launch, or during Xbox Anniversary.

So I am not even expecting a special treatment for E3 month.

 

[Genio88]

As always i hope in good Games with gold for this month, but actually i think i'm not gonna be able to play them this month among The Witcher 3(PC), Life is Strange EP3(XB1), and Batman Arkham Knight(PC)

There was a site claiming it would be Ryse and Forza 5, but I can't seem to remember the name...

Ah well, it was probably bogus to try and get some free hits.

 

[The Real Napsta]

Any predictions for the 360 games? Halo 4 any of the Batman games would be cool.

 

[im_dany]

RDR would be nice to revive its multiplayer, especially if they actually end up announcing Red Dead 3 at E3.
There's a lot of good (but almost desert) mp titles on 360: Halo Wars, Forza Motorsport 4, Forza Horizon, Max Payne 3, COD2, Left4Dead 2.

My Internet was down this morning so obviously couldn't connect to Live. I went to load up Darksiders 2 but it told me I had to insert disc or repurchase from the marketplace? How long has this bullshit been going on? I can't play games offline now?

Something to do with licenses.
You must have bought it on another Xbox.
Transfer the license and you can play it offline.

Of course. Yeah, that's it. I gave my original 360 to a friend. Thanks.

Huh, this is the site I was thinking about...

http://www.christiantoday.com/artic...s.aaa.titles.to.commemorate.e3.2015/54361.htm

Seems a number of sites are reporting the same thing. Probably trying to drive traffic.

 

[narton]

So I'm thinking about getting Ground Zeroes since it's half off. Would I still be able to get the voucher that came with it?

Ground zeroes has always been on sale.

That site is the same as kdramastars as in they post nothing but fake rumours etc.

You should look at their sources because that is not a rumour. Latino post took other sites hopes/expection and made it into a "rumour".

 

[narton]

No it's down from 19.99 to 9.99. I looked at the 360's store front, and it seemed to imply I'd still get the bonus DLC when TPP comes out. I feel kinda dirty giving konami money though.

Most likely. I think it keeps being rumoured because it's so insane it hasn't come yet.

- 1st party title
- Graphics showcase
- Multiplayer
- DLC
- Microtransactions
- No one buys it anymore

It's the very definition of a perfect GwG game.

 

[BGMNTS]

Please be Witcher 3

That would be true if Microsoft were regularly putting that sort of premium AAA title on GwG, apart from Rayman (which sold at a lower price, iirc) they haven't done that at all. The last game we got was worth $15, some months have been as low as $10 too? I do not think as yet we are close to getting that sort of title, although E3 could change that.

Massive Chalice stuff seems legit, I wouldn't expect them to dabble into bigger titles until later in the year at the earliest.

I don't think MS care all that much about GwG either, but we will see

 

[EmiPrime]

I'm hoping for Fable or Halo Anniversary as I never got round to buying them.

 

[GoonerTRON]

Next months offering will be a 360 emulator.

 

[statham]

It's Halo 5.

R U Okay?

Halo Anniversary isn't digital. Fable Anniversary could be a possibility but I think Fable II surely would come first.

Still blows my mind why it isn't available digital

I would LOVE Fable Anniversary.

 

[chronic_archaic]

I assume it's because it comes with a part of Halo Reach on the disc - though that didn't stop Halo 3 ODST coming digital in a campaign only portion.

 

[EchoChamber]

Give me some AAA please Microsoft .

Podcast Unlocked (Ign podcast) were hinting at the May GWG, and said people will be very happy with it.

They didnt call out specifically what it was (or which console), but their hype for a freebie seemed legit.
