How's the Overwatch looting going for the rest of you? I got a Bridgette skin last night. I'm not sure I like that Petra map.
I've only gotten the doomfist skin from the legendary box. I bought pharah's and DVA's skins from last year. I have 1000 coins left and don't know what else to get. The only new skin I'll be bummed if I don't unlock is Brigitte's. I've done 8 of my 10 placements for comp FFA and have been in the top four for 6 of them so so close to having enough golden gun credits. Petra is okay, but it seems huge compared to the chateau. Petra I usually don't see more than 2 other enemies at a time while in chateau half the lobby can end up in the basement at once.
 
Wasn't there some sort of Xbox challenge for downloading 2 GWG and playing Fortnite for 5-10 hours? I remember visiting the page from a link here but I can't for the life of me remember.
 
Any thoughts on if 1943 will go up in price on the marketplace given the new BC compatibility?  Is it better to grab it now or wait for a Battlefield sale?

 
So I saw Gamestop is running a deal now where they will give you $20 towards buying Overwatch when you trade in certain games, right now making Overwatch essentially free.  For shiggles, I decided to look at the list of eligible games and was taken aback to find Pokemon Heart Gold on the list.  So for more shiggles, I decided to see what HG's trade-in value was...$27 base! Up to $32 with Elite Pro.  Nice try Gamestop, almost pulled a fast one on me.  Now my dilemma: Do I trade in all of my hours and countless battles, hell maybe even a shiny or too, on HG?  Time to bust it out and see where I'm at.

 
Is it bad that I'm excited to play Disneyland Adventures? Seems like an relatively easy completion, plus it's all the fun of Disneyland at 10% of the cost from the comfort of your couch! Anybody? No? Just me?
As someone who played a ton of Disneyland Adventures it is most definitely not a relatively easy completion. I played over 30 hours and wasn't even 50% done with the game.

I don't recall seeing prices for new BC games going up in the Xbox Store (I could be wrong), but we do see lots of instances where future sales of said games happen at a lesser discount.

For any game whose TIV is over the guaranteed amount, you'll get that game's normal TIV. For games whose TIV is under the guaranteed amount, they boost the TIV.

 
It's also coming to EA Access members for free!

If you like the Battlefield formula and feel, this is a nice little, contained BF experience. Based on the Pacific Front of WWII with some good island romping, planes, boats, etc.

Interesting game...

Very intrigued, will be keeping an eye out for this at E3!

 
I'll finally use my 14 day trial of Game Pass so I can rack up some points on Disneyland Adventures. I used to own the kinect version on the 360 but it was kind of a pain in the ass walking around the park in Kinect mode.

Its much better now without the Kinect support. Its actually playable now.
 
The Apple pricks rejected the Steam Link app.
The Samsung TV version of the app works better than my actual piece of Steam Link hardware. Apple just today got awarded $539 million from Samsung for patent infringement. Conspiracy?

Yeah, I had a Samsung and agree, the TV app worked so much better than my Steam Link that I got rid of the hardware. Now I have a TCL so no longer have the app. Was hoping the iOS app would fix that since I have an Apple TV.

Conspiracy indeed.

The first Xbox Live Reward style punchcard/quest has shown up for me on my Microsoft rewards page. This one for State of Decay 2.

Three Steps:

Search on Bing/ Watch Trailer

Take a State of Decay quiz

Purchase a version of State of Decay.

Doing that will get you 6500 points.

How much Xbox credit is that worth roughly?
 
current hot deal on MS rewards is $5 for 3750, so somewhere in the $9 range? If you were going to buy the game and not just game pass it seems like a nice deal. Bit over $20. 

 
I went and checked out the state of decay 2 punchard... 

Preordered the ultimate edition and it won't count that step as completed.

So you're telling me i bought the game before this went live and i'm just screwed out of the reward points???

I’m curious if this would stack with the mixer promotion. As long as there aren’t any stipulations I’m thinking you could buy this through the mixer stream direct and qualify for the $5 back from Microsoft then by purchasing this game you’d get the 6500 points as well with this deal. Hopefully that would work?

Contact Xbox support they’re usually really helpful with resolving issues especially through chat. They’ve always done good by me.

Where is the punchcard, cant find it.

 
Nice to see the punch card stuff carrying over, but the vault rewards are still superior.

Also im not gonna buy State of Decay 2 when It's on Gamepass. Nice try MS.

Yeah that happened to me with Madden punch card last year.

I'm not excited for DS Remastered. Will probably wait for a sale. Was hoping for bigger improvements. Maybe there will be unannounced changes that will change my mind. Although playing a Souls game during launch month is a unique experience.
 
Yeah It's a shame they didn't do more improvements. But if your ok with 4k/60fps it fits the bill. I played a little bit of it and it seems a bit easier because It's so smooth now.

 
Yeah not that hyped, I had no choice but to play day 1, I bought a ps4 that eventually did some weird blue ring of death just for Bloodborne. If you're not in a hurry you can so wait, not mad at myself for buying day 1 since Bloodstained let me down. 

 
I'm sure that tower full of "dwarves" if we can say that now is probably pretty epic battles, but it would be smart of me to put soapstones now on all these bosses first run through

Still wish we’d get a Demons Souls, my favorite of the series, remaster (or even remake). But that’s Sony’s call.

Can I download games on Gamepass from my computer?
If you mean trigger the download to Xbox while on a PC, then yes I've done this. Either from the Xbox app or the windows store. As long as your logged in it should recognize your gamepass sub scription.

On the other hand, if you're asking if gamepass games are play anywhere, then I believe the answer is no. But I could be wrong as I've never tried that with a gamepass game.
