Can anyone tell me if this game is split screen? If so, how many players? I have two younger boys that would probably dig this, but only if they can play together at the same time.

Split screen co-op is exclusive to XB1

There's coop on xbox one, but according to my little brothers the coop sucks compared to play alone on multiplayer.

Based on what they said, it's just the garden ops mode, you can't play other multiplayer modes.

Not only that, but the second player doesn't get to use his or her own profile or earn coins and items. So split-screen is okay for showing somebody the same, but I doubt anybody would ever want to play it regularly.

Garden Warfare also has its own thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=771278

Well, I ended up getting sucked into Hitman Absolution so I guess the Child of Light/Super Time Force debacle has been shelved for another day.

Just to let people know, if you own Killer Instinct Combo Edition you can now upgrade to the Ultra Edition without having to pay the extra ontop of what you already paid.

They have basically taken the Combo Edition price off the ultra edition if you already own it.

Ultra edition has all the extra costumes and of course the original arcade conversion of KI.

How? Only on the console or webstore?

I read earlier that it was on sale, are you sure its not just that? The price is down from £31.99 to £27.99, unless you have the Combo edition and its just offering you a different option that I can't see?

 

[FonkyByNature]

Perfect time to pick up Killer Instinct Ultra Edition !

 

[Chiaroscuro]

webstore only lists "Killer Instinct" and I guess it is the combo option because it says I already have it.

How exactly do these upgrade paths work for this game?

I don't have an Xbox one, but if i ever get one it would be for this. I got points to burn too. Sounds like you can't buy from the web though.

 

[malfcn]

Ultra Edition is 50% off for Combo owners, and 12% off to non-owners.

20 bucks for the combo owners then. I may grab it later.

That is the problem with the Xbox One webstore: you can only buy the games, not DLC. So unless you have access to a Xbox One, you cannot buy it.

 

[pacman85]

Which actually makes the Ultra Edition by itself cheaper than if you already bought the Combo Breaker Edition and want to add on the Ultra Edition upgrade ($40 total vs. $35/36). The Ultra Edition should be $20 BY DEFUALT if you have already bought the Combo Breaker Edition and THEN should be on sale. This is a sorry excuse for a "deal".

Yeah the XBox One web store is a complete joke right now. Which sucks, because I loved how easy and convenient the 360 web store was/is. They have done a VERY poor job of integrating together anything on xbox.com related to the One and 360.

Well, considering that a lot of people got the Combo Breaker Ed for free (including myself) it is not a bad deal. However if you have paid for the Combo Ed then it sucks.

About fucking time, MS.

Blah. Yet another thing that worked well with the 360, that was inexplicably changed.

So I caved and bought Child of Light. Got about three hours into it last night and am enjoying it immensely.

Ok, now buy STF

Yep it's a very good game. I'm still enjoying it very much.

 

[Cromulent_Word]

Am I allowed to second this?

 

[backflip10019]

Am I allowed to second this?

Well, NOW I HAVE TO BUY IT. Thanks a lot, Capy!

 

[Steverulez]

If you want to give me commission for that sale, I won't say no!!

 

[Jezehbell]

Super Time Force is amazing, just completed all the achievements and the Super Hardcore Mode, I want more !

Grats, last night I noticed you were kicking its ass on my timeline. Really need to get back to it, but I'm halfway through Tomb Raider and can't put it down.

 

[Cromulent_Word]

Wow, that's amazing. And super motivating for us. We tried to cram the game full of... game... but it appears that some folks (like yourself) devoured it. Which is awesome.

 

[Skele7on]

Think I'm going to buy Super Time Force tonight.

Three day weekend for me and it looks like rain everyday.

Read a bunch of reviews, but what should I expect gaf?

Expect to DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE

Spoiler

And have a crap load of fun doing it, pew pew!

But seriously, after the tutorial it'll feel better once you're doing the levels, unlocking characters and using the time rewind stuff. Game is challenging and rewarding and very cool

 

[zeron]

bought super time force on release day to find out my xbox is not working, still waiting for it to be returned from repair :/

 

[m23]

I completed the game within a few days, but man is it fun. I don't think I have the patience for super hardcore mode though.

I bought it and transistor yesterday, transistor has not been touched yet.

I am having so so much fun Braid + Contra!

AMAZINGGGG Job to the team, now I've said that I'm going back for more.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

I am having so so much fun Braid + Contra!

I'd say it's more The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom + Contra Force. Of course, it's action is not mediocre like CF was, but has the team of different soldiers with different abilities aspect, anyway, while the Winterbottom bit focuses on clones and time manipulation. Great, great game...I do hope it does well for Capy coming in the midst of all the big games hogging the spotlight.

Does anybody know if we'll be able to "purchase" the free XB1 GWG games on xbox.com to tie them to our accounts like you can with PS4 so that whenever I get an XB1 I'll have them available to download?

 

[Lima]

Does anybody know if we'll be able to "purchase" the free XB1 GWG games on xbox.com to tie them to our accounts like you can with PS4 so that whenever I get an XB1 I'll have them available to download?

Yes using store.xbox.com

I answered this for you in the other thread you asked it in.

You need to have some sort of payment method attached to your account though. CC, Paypal or pre-paid credit.

Yes, at least that's how it seems. Hit up store.xbox.com to see the store.

Ha thanks for the heads up, I couldn't find that thread to save my life even after searching my recent posts. I need to start subscribing.

Good stuff, I'll be sure to jump on there next month.

 

[Ran Ran]

I've been playing Power Star Golf since it went F2P. It's a pretty fun game to kill time on and is the closest thing we have to Hot Shots Golf right now.

My putting absolutely suck though

Oh and - this is how the tile looks like:

 

[Family Fry]

I do enjoy worms old style, this one is priced at $25 so it will be a tough sell to some people.
It is getting a disc release in UK for around £24.99 too.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

Not a fan of Worm's price.

 

[scarface983]

me either... why is it $25 bux when the other games are $20 or less

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

Yes, that seems a bit too much for yet another Worms game.

 

[Alchemy]

Anyone know if Worms has local multi? Might make it worth the price if I can play it on the couch with my wife.

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

It would be ludicrous if it didn't, Worms games have always been all about local multiplayer for me.

 

[KaYotiX]

When Worms drops to $15 I might bite. No way at $25.

 

[EBE]

Worms is $25? no way im buying at that price. get that thing down to 10 or 15 and im there.

Is there a reason why nutjitsu is not on the AU store? I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere.

I don't think it's out anywhere in the PAL region yet.

Didn't know this was the case.
A quick google and I found out that there isn't an announced EU/AU release date.
