Hey Fellow CAG's

I don't know if most folks would consider this a deal, but Elite Dangerous is finally out on X1 with the new Game Preview progam. In fact, its showing up at a reduced price of 30.99. Now bear in mind this is an early access type deal.

Note the Warning also....

Note – This game is a work in progress. It may or may not change over time and may not release as a final product. Please purchase only if you are comfortable with the current state of the unfinished game.

Poor OP's life is a month behind everyone else! 

The Long Dark has also been available for Xbox One Preview/Early Access since last month as well.

I appreciate the effort OP. You're not the only one to misread a date. I'd like to know if anyone has tried it yet on the Xbox One. It sounds like something I'd really like. I read about it on the PC, and wasn't sure if the Xbox One version was the same with all of the exploration of stars, or if it was just the combat part stripped out for an "action" audience.

 
I like how the blog post by Major Nelson is dated June 16, 2015. Wouldn't have been any confusion had the OP read the helpful blog post himself. Haha. Don't feel too bad OP, we all make mistakes. Just have to laugh it off and move on.
 
It actually is a deal and is at a reduced price of $30.99.

Once it gets passed the "Preview Program" or the Devs feel that it is ready, the Price will shoot back up to $59.99+ so look at it as a 50% deal.

It is right now on steam for $59.99 and in some cases $75 and the lowest it's gone down for pc is $40, so $31 is a great price for early players on the X1

I bought the game and am really enjoying it. It has been a game I keep coming back to even with all the newly released titles. It will be nice to get more players on the Xbox one.

Watch videos online and decide for yourself. It is not for everyone, but I can't recommend this game enough!

umm yeah thats what they say about every game that is sold before it "comes out". By that time it will be even less. My rule is to never buy a game before it is released incase the development stops or moves at a snails pace. Call me old-fashioned.

 
This doesn't seem like the game it would happen to but early access games get abandoned on steam way too much. Really hoping that doesn't become the case with these X1 early access games, but in the fine print it does mention this possibility
 
I've only seen a video of this game, but does this game seem like a souped-up version of Darkstar One on the 360? If anybody is familiar with that one, anyway.
