I Bought a ridiculous amount of crap past few weeks so I think I can handle crap sales...for maybe another week or two before the backlog beckons for more digital souls.

Checked and the art style is maybe a little darker than some games but nothing like you were describing where it was so dark that it’s unplayable. Maybe it was a bad download or something?

Hmm, not sure. I’ll give it a go though. Thanks for doing that for me.

For some reason I thought Mordheim had a trial. Guess not. Was reading some reviews and sounds like it’s really hard. Like highest level or difficulty X-Com hard. I like turn based strategy but I’m not great at them so if it’s that hard I may pass.

Any thoughts from those who have played it?

I bought it at launch due to my love for Xcom and the IP, but the over-the-shoulder view and barebones tutorial really left me floundering. I haven't played it since. I should probably watch a youtube video so I can at least attempt to get an hour of playtime.

Yeah, not sure I want to spend that much time learning a game.
 
Mentioned earlier that I picked up Return to Arkham on clearance at TRU. Never played it before on my S so only getting to see how it performs on the X. Know it had some bad framerate issues when it came out but haven’t noticed any such issues on the X.

Just curious if anyone has played it on both if it really runs that much better on the X or if maybe I just haven’t hit the rough parts yet.

Yeah I couldn't find any at local TRU through my buddies so I bought it through walmart.com. It was $15 and had tons of savings catcher cash so I bought it that way.

Also had my first X errors the last few days. I lost picture and sound thru the HDMI briefly. Unplugged and plugged back in seems to have fixed the issue and played another 2+ hours without any issues. Was on the latest Alpha dash and just updated so hoping that fixes the issue for now.

Yesterday my controller lost connection as well. Only to find out that MS did NOT update the X controllers with the system. So I updated and played another 10+ hours no issues.

My friend also got a snowy screen during start up and some of the loading videos. Factory reset and then a update to the latest dash has solved the issues for now.

Odd stuff. This is why you should avoid buying systems day one lol.

Did the update fix the save corruption?

Well I stopped before because I didn't want it to happen so it hasn't happened for me.

Smooth sailing so far!?

Lol, I tried 180 on Miami for the Forzathon... got 174.

That's after I tweaked with the gear ratios to get a higher top speed with a sacrifice of acceleration.

DF always mentioned how screen tearing and fps drops occurred with the Batmobile segments. They said the One X brute forces that part now no issue.
Can't find the video if then taking about it, I put my laptop away.

lol... that's Arkham Knight. Funny enough my friend bought Arkham Knight thinking the same thing! He was excited and then I told him "Bruh, wrong game.". Arkham Knight is basically locked 30fps on the X. Had drops on the other systems.

Return to Arkham is the "remastered" versions of Arkham City and Asylum.

Arkham Knight is the batmobile game and the last Batman game from Rocksteady.

Return to Arkham has unlocked frame rates on both games without a patch. With a patch only Arkham City can get unlocked but you have to die a few times and the glitch apparently unlocks the frame rate. If you own the disc version they can't force you to patch the game as long as you play offline or decline the patch. It's sought after just like vanilla Witcher 3 disc can hit 60fps on the X without the patch. Though obviously the game is most likely going to be near native 4k with the X patch and everyone is waiting for that. Curious if they will do a lite mode to let it go on unlocked frame rate, that way we can have the best of both worlds.

I haven't seen a video of the frame rate test on return to arkham so curious how it will hold up.

Here's the Witcher 3 vanilla disc unpatched.

If I do the Gamepass free trial then buy the $1 month will they stack?

FH3 had two Forzathon challenges that refused to unlock for me.  The other unlocked at a random time.

Didn't get in enough gaming last week and only won four cluckshot games in Gears 4, dammit.

 
Final game haul:
Digital:
Zoo Tycoon
Cuphead
Wheel of Fortune/Jeopardy

Pretty proud of myself for not just buying shit just to buy shit.
 
For some weird reason I didn't have a couple of this months free GWG games, and I'm usually pretty good about picking them up when wario64 posts links.  Just in case anyone else missed them as well since a few disappear soon

DAMN IT!  Wanted to get the last Wolfenstein game to finish it before I get into the new one (got about half way through the last one a while back) and of COURSE for once they're lickity split in getting the sale prices down.  Was hoping they'd at least be up through this morning since they extended through cyber Monday :(  I was 5 points short yesterday of getting my next $5 bing reward so wanted to wait until today...

Oh well.

I really liked Wolfenstein 2. Probably wont be long before it is $20 or less. Maybe by then you will have finished Old and New Blood.

Mentioned earlier that I picked up Return to Arkham on clearance at TRU. Never played it before on my S so only getting to see how it performs on the X. Know it had some bad framerate issues when it came out but haven’t noticed any such issues on the X.

Just curious if anyone has played it on both if it really runs that much better on the X or if maybe I just haven’t hit the rough parts yet.

I played on PC originally and of course it was fine there. Recently started replaying Arkham Asylum portion on an OG Xbox and haven't noticed any issues. I also may not have hit the rough portions of the game. Haven't tried on my X1X yet as it wasn't on the enhanced games list so I never moved it over to the X1X.

I'm saying the opposite haha, I got about half way through the New Order (not sure if I'll play new blood, maybe at some point) on 360 but for whatever reason didn't finish it. I got Wolfenstein 2 at BB and I'm enjoying it so much I want to go back and finish up New Order. I mean I know it's $20 digitally it's just $5 after my code sounded so much better.

Yeah, know it’s not enhanced but as with many games it still could get a performance boost even without a formal patch on the X.

Agreed. I was just too lazy to move over some of my nonenhanced games myself so I can't really speak to the difference there. The only related comment of value is that I didn't notice an issue on the OG Xbox but am not measuring fps explicitly.

Measuring fps (and related performance metrics) is something I'm interested in and have been casually investigating. But I'm no pro.
 
What ejectedbunny said, thanks for the sale info, Bloomy! Makes planing out the buy list so much better.  And thank you to everyone who's made this thread great to read- makes slogging through working Black Friday ---> Cyber Monday all the more manageable.

I’m not an FPS pro either even noticing 30 FPS to 60 FPS. But I will notice if it has big dips and sounded like Return to Arkham had some on console. And the X1 was never patched like the PS4 was.

Well I stopped before because I didn't want it to happen so it hasn't happened for me.

Smooth sailing so far!?

Lol, I tried 180 on Miami for the Forzathon... got 174.

That's after I tweaked with the gear ratios to get a higher top speed with a sacrifice of acceleration.

Try Free Play mode. Choose Rise of the Supercar. Rent the 1993 McClaren F1. You should hit 180 easily.

 
Hand of Fate 2 coming out December 1st.

Not sure if anyone else is excited about this one, but I know it's a day-one purchase for me.

Been checking for news on it ever since its November 7 release date was delayed.

I need to go back and finish the first one, I quite enjoyed it. Since Iron Banner is over and I don't expect a lot of surprises this week in Destiny 2, I should have some free time to explore other games and maybe some TV!

I mentioned earlier that I got it from TRU and that I was considering converting to digital. You should read my post, it's hilarious! :)

Probably so, and hopefully the GS TIV doesn't fall.
