I'm still gonna hold on to my false hope of OG Xbox BC

Well it's possible, right? I mean now that "Phantom Dust" is just a copy/paste, perhaps that can happen. Even better, maybe now I can play my ultimate favorite again...
Voodoo Vince.
You give me hope. So much hope.
And then...
The sequel we were promised (from both franchises)!
 
Coming today:
Fallout: New Vegas, Blood Knights, Red Faction Battlegrounds, Joe Danger, Comic Jumper, Crystal Quest, D&D:Chronicles of Mystara, I am Alive.

Decent haul but I'm pretty sure I don't own any of those. I almost bought New Vegas last time it was on sale but it was only 50% off and I own the complete version on PC so it was hard to justify at the time.

Good news though hopefully more next week

Well there goes my hope of getting the Sonic Adventure games and/or Generations on the day of the 25th anniversary :/
 
D&D: Chronicles of Mystara is the big "GET!" for me here, everything else is just bonus.

That's a lot at once though. Regardless if one's favorite game isn't there, it's always nice to see they're at work on a wide variety of games, from the popular, to those that only 3 people probably ever played.
 
Will be interesting to see if new Vegas gets any performance boost. That game has some very major performance issues late in the game.. I crashed the system several times.

If you have a pc made in the last 5 years with a dedicated graphics card you out should probably play it there because I found it to be almost unplayable at times. Much worse than fallout 3 ever was.

Thank you for New Vegas, MS :)

Also glad we got Comic Jumper and I am Alive, even if they're not the best games, as I still need to finish them.
 
Btw: XBL SummerSale starts in 12 days. :)

Awesome, I can put that £7.02 refund to use that MS gave for Fallout. I find it funny that they didn't just round it up to £10 but what the heck it's free so can't complain really. I'll probably end up buying some BC games like South Park or something.
 
Lots of stuff will be on Sale. Life is Strange will be $9 for example. (complete season)
Hmm, too bad I already have LiS. Will we finally see some DLC on sale or only games? Seems like forever that some Season Passes have had a sale, like Far Cry 4.
 
Just got an Xbox One and I've been trying to figure out what to buy and play for it. I wanna go through the Halo games but I'm assuming that the only way to play them all (the main games anyway) is through the Master Chief Collection? I don't see them listed on the BC list in the OP but I've heard that the MCC is... not good. I own 1 & 2 physical copies from a long long time ago, but I think it's the original version of 1 and it looks like 2 never came out on 360?

So I guess I have to just suck it up and deal with the Master Chief Collection then?

MCC is fine now from what ive heard from my brother who keeps recommending i buy it. It just had a brutal launch with sketchy online stability but i would imagine that those kinks are sorted at this point but i couldn't say for sure. I do know my brother was able to play through the campaigns with his girlfriend without issue so if your just looking to play through the story MCC is probably the best route.

MCC is good if you want the single player stuff. The multiplayer didn't work at all for months which is where most of the complaints come from. I don't know what's it's like now, they kept updating it.

Ahhh ok good to know! Yeah I'll mainly be interested in the campaign so it sounds like I'll be fine then. Thank you both!
 

Holy shit!! Ah if only it were on sale from MS for that price I could use my $10 from the Fallout accident and get it for free @__@

Are the codes universal? I'm in the US with a US Xbox One but it looks like that site is based somewhere in Europe? Or not, it shows a US dollar sign but the box art looks... not from the US?

Fake Edit: Holy shit this site is a treasure trove. Alan Wake for less than $2? Craft you monster what have you done to my wallet!?

Actual edit: I'm an idiot, the globe on the game's page means it works universally. Holy shit, thank you so much for the head's up.

Edit 2: Installing now. I am so glad I checked this thread!! Wow I am super excited thank you so much Craft!

Nice. Got 5 of those games. That'll put me over 400 games on the XB1. Glad I got 2 4TB drives on there.
 
And the Skate 3 wait continues. I realise that backwards compatibility is no longer a hot issue but I really wish more people interviewing Phil Spencer last week had asked him why games announced at the very start of the program are still no-shows. It just seems crazy.
