Yes, if the 360 was on it would start the download. XB1 is always on and even if it weren't, it does not start the download automatically when the XB1 is on so it is an old 360 feature that is missing.

Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
You might want to watch some peoples videos. The deaths, at least so far, are not graphic in any way and he restarts from the last checkpoint right away so I don't know that it's traumatic.
Gotcha. As explained on the last page I meant something different.

They call it a "re-imagining of the original idea behind the previous title, rather than an actual sequel". via Major Nelson's blog in an interview with the developers.
I guess I'm just curious why they chose to stealth release it, when they gave it a great spotlight during their E3 conference. I hope they promote it on the main dash at least.
Reviewers are doing a good job spreading the word though!

Probably just wanted to get it out during the holidays and didnt want to hurt the release of spartan ops, i would guess.

It's not like its going to get lost in a deluge of Xbox One releases or anything.

I don't think there's any option to add a paypal account to your gamertag on the Xbox One. At least it never gave me the option to pay with paypal, and under payment&billing it doesn't give me the option to add a paypal account.Wasn't planning to buy digital games for my One, but the game looks so appealing that I wanna buy this.I live in the Netherlands, is it possible to DL this to my Xbox One? I own Paypal and my region is set on England. Any help would be appreciated
I use a CC myself.
If you've got a paypal account tied to your gamertag on the 360 it will carry over but only for the region your account had on the 360. So that won't help much.
Alternatively you can buy a pre-paid card from the region that your console is set to. Also I advise you to switch to the US marketplace it is way cheaper than every other marketplace with difference of up to 50% in price.
the game is obviously very kid-friendly, though for a 2-3 year old I don't know if they'd get scared by the troll chases (boss scenes)
I don't have kids, so I have no idea but those are the only sequences I think could be classified as "scary" in that there is imminent danger
I'll give it a whirl one of these night and see if it passes the wife approved test.....
I use PayPal, it's an option on store.xbox.com

Any reviews yet? Haven't seen any.
From the video I have scene it doesn't seem that bad, my kid loves monsters inc and LOVES the nightmare before christmas, he thinks the skeleton Jack is the best thing since sliced bread. He was also a "scary" keleton (skeleton) for halloween.
So is this game about 5-6 hours long?
Also, out of curiosity, what does it take to become an actual GAF "member" and not a "junior member". I know my actual registration to the site took a good 4-6 months.....

No it will not work. Check out this video how to buy games from the US Store.

Yes, just enter a fake billing address from the country that your One is set to. Don't worry I'm from The Netherlands to and have been using my Dutch credit card since launch on the US store via this trick
And apparently paypal is an option, didn't know that sorry for that misinformation from my side.Yes you can. I've been using my dutch credit card since launch. Without any problems. John Caboose even made a guide on how to use a credit card in a foreign marketplace.
What, lol.

Thanks for helping me out Caayn! Wasn't aware of the replys of Sangreal and Gowans but will look into this asap. I'd rather use Paypal instead of my CC so it's nice to have that option

Ok. I thought that the creditcard was supposed to be from the US to be able to buy from that region.

Well ya, its not a big of a deal right now, I'm just nitpicking a bit

Only one I've seen is Game Informer giving it a 6, and two other sites I forget which, giving it a 9 each that I have seen on GAF. Kotaku wrote pretty glowingly of it also.
Your posts certainly don't reflect the genius of the guy in your avatar.
To be fair, it's been 8 years since you last bought a downloadable game. You should expect some inflation.

I miss demos. I bought this game though because of all the positive comments in this thread. Game looks good.
You see, if there was a demo you might not have dipped in already.

Really enjoying it - though seems a little on the easy side so far. Cutscene stutter is really off putting though and can't see how it got by QA like that.

Ah completely forgot that the GameDVR clips are automatically shared on the marketplace. Ok, now I'm embarrassed. Those were probably me dying again and again

Just created a small compilation showing of some of the game element. Don't expect to much I'm not great at editing videos and deciding what to show of. But I thought that these pieces give a good impression on the game.
From 1:20 it's basically my first time trying to solve a puzzle. You can see me failing for 2 minutes orso before I finally figure it out.
Keep in mind that GameDVR butchers the quality.

Dude.
Like dude.
Ugh I had to do that many times to get the achievement for beating him without dying.
1000/1000 done. Great game. Played this for like 12 hours straight today with only a few bathroom breaks.
Any tips on beating him? I'm about to rage.
Last boss spoiler
Are you at the part where he punches the shit out of the ground? If so you just need to evade the punches 3 times and shoot some fireballs on him once he tries to puke that green stuff on you.
After one hit from each side he will fall down and you have to attach the electric vines to his head.
