  • Some sales are intended for Gold subscribers only, as noted within each section.
    On Xbox One, Gold trials of any length work for sales and Games with Gold. You must be an active Gold subscriber (paid or trial) to play Games with Gold purchases.
  • On Xbox 360, you must have at least a 1 month Gold subscription for sales and Games with Gold. Neither 48 hour trials, 14 day trials nor free weekends qualify.

I caved and just got it. I'll let you know if it's worth it later, heading out now.
First impressions: Honestly the game looks like decent fun. Kind of a rinse/repeat slasher but there's some cool mechanics here. Would have liked to see more variety and moves and stuff (like God of War) and there's a very simple upgrade mechanic, but otherwise good fun. Feel free to read a review if you want. Personally I think 15 bucks for it wasn't too bad.

 
How is Unravel basic? The yarn mechanic, having to figure out the best way to use it in any given situation and even the limits on how far you can go without more yarn doesn't feel basic to me.
Because that's all its got. Not to mention it happily points out everything you can interact with so it boils down to trial and error. Plus the majority of the puzzles appear to be physics-based, something that has been prevalent in tons of games. There's also very little adversity to deal with as well.

Like I said, it's not a bad thing to be simple as long as what it has is solid. But I can fully understand people expecting more in terms of mechanics.
 
Speaking of Gimme 5, I know that there was at least 1 other person on here who won a physical reward.

Today makes week 5 of the 4-6 weeks I was supposed to wait. A tracking number or something would have been a nice indication that it is actually going to come. So if that person reads this (don't remember who it was) have you gotten yours yet, or am I just being impatient?

The latter is very possible. I get very anxious when awaiting packages in the mail.

 
They should honestly just give an emulation shell instead of relicensing/downloading
If everyone would be fine with games running at maybe 5 fps, they might be able to do that. The XB1 might be able to pull off emulating some smaller, non-taxing games, but it just doesn't have the horsepower to fully emulate the 360 in software.

The Wii's CPU is PowerPC based and estimated at 729 MHz. The Dolphin emulator benchmarks suggest having an x86 core that basically quadruples the Wii CPU speed to expect to run non-demanding Wii games at full performance. There have been some performance improvements and that forum list may not be up to date, but it gives an idea of what it's like to emulate PowerPC on x86. It's not very efficient, you need a good step up in power to do it.

The 360 has 3 3.2 GHz PowerPC cores. The XB1 has 8 1.75 GHz x86 cores. There's more to emulation efficiency than just comparing clock speed sums, but 9.6 vs. 14 is quite telling. That's not quite 1.5x, and that would also have to deal with tracking parallel execution across the different cores plus still having the XB1 system resources running. Microsoft has good engineers, and with access to the CPU design docs they have a step up on the Dolphin folks who are trying to reverse engineer things, but 4x vs. 1.5x is a very wide gap to narrow.

 
Contemplating Need For Speed Rivals...is it worth $10?
One of the better NFS games. That being said, I don't really understand why people aren't just getting an EA Access subscription instead of contemplating spending $10 here or there on various games that are "free" on EA Access. I realize the arguments for outright purchasing games, but EA Access can be had for as low as about $22 per year if you watch the deals.

Also, I understand this is the complete version and I don't know what's included in that. My guess is that you won't miss that extra DLC, but maybe that's worth $10 alone...

 
I would probably pick up EA Access if I was able to pay for it with XBL credit.  However, I have a bunch of XBL currency thanks to Bing/Golden Crisp promo, which is why I'm thinking about getting Rivals.

That's how I do it too, well and podcasts. I like the CAGcast, giant bombcast, podcast unlocked, Major Nelson radio, beastcast, boop and the patch. I drive a lot so it gives me something other than music to listen to.

Thank you,

I swear I've have this conversation a few times on CAG before, and I guess calling the BC "Porting" is a better example, since it's not really BC or Emulation.

Though last time it was brought up, someone quickly corrected me saying it was emulation and the XB1 was perfectly capable of running 360 games. (Which as you've pointed out, and has been known, is not)

So.. what exactly is going on?

 
Do EA Access trials still work after they are removed? Like if I already have it downloaded, can I still play it for 10 hours once they pull it? The Unravel trial will eventually be pulled, right?

OT: Free burrito from Chipotle if you text RAINCHECK to 888-222. Do it before 6pm EST. http://chipotle.com/raincheck

 
Plus there are hints they'll add Xbox 360 games to the Vault at E3.
I haven't seen these hints, but this seems like a no-brainer for EA. The only issue is that 360 can't revoke licensing apparently which has been brought up by multiple people in this thread as the likely reason why it's not including 360 games now. Maybe they've figured out a way around this or they are just going to let you keep 360 games permanently, if it's true...

If they just give access to the XB1 store listing that should solve that part.

If I'm remembering right, it's emulating a 360 to the software so it can run close to natively. The game itself isn't being done on the fly, it's being tricked. Not all games like being tricked.

Except that you can't buy 360 games on the Xbox One, correct? At least I haven't figured it out, anyway.

Re-reading it, i'm guessing you have something slightly different in mind.

You would be correct.

Just add the store listings to EA Access so that they show up in the app and you can install through there.

No. Trials do not get pulled. You have 10 hours to play a game - and you can do it anytime. Even after the full game is released.

I still have a few hours left on my Battlefront trial, for example.

 
Not to beat a long dead horse named OT, but I finally got my Gimme5 code for TWDS2. I had to make a topic in the help forums and a rep sent me the code via PM the other day. I just happened to check today, as I had accepted that I wasn't getting it. To the backlog!
You should be honest with yourself - you'll never play it. Trade me for $6 in X-bucks and I will give the game a good home. :)

Get EA Access, fuckos. Its inexpensive and saves you money in the long run. Plus there are hints they'll add Xbox 360 games to the Vault at E3.
So the only whispering about :360: games that I have seen is in here. Is there something more substantial than that to suggest it might happen?

I listen to some podcast as well for gaming though usually just 8-4 play and the geekbox, used to like rebel fm but all they seem to talk about are dumb polygon type games

I received my Forza controller about a week ago.

 
We gathered that much. I don't remember a TR controller existing either.
It's for 360.

If you are not from America, there would have been a lot of items you did not see as not every region got the same things. I assume you are talking about the grab bag thing that was on.

 
I slept late and missed microsoftstore.com's $12 sale on NFS Rivals complete that I've been waiting on for weeks now since I had a $10 code to use.  Forgot to buy it on console before I left for work which leads me to ask when the EA daily deals have been ending?  Do they end at the same time of day that Xbox live deals end?

Just skip it. Rivals wasnt that great honestly. In my opinion the Forza series is much better. Hell even the need for speed reboot is marginally better... for what it's worth lol

I was about to tell you that you that the game is still on sale, but it's back up to $29.99 even though the sale page lists it at $9.90.

They need to be more on top of this stuff! And what is today's DotD?!?

Deadpool is cool but $30 is way too much. $15 is reasonable. Its not that much different from the 360 version aside from upscaled graphics. I 100%'d both versions, trust me. I'm the shit.
