XBox One AND PS4 Discussion

[Jimmydeicide]

I played it again on the hardest level and almost finished again.

Nothing beat putting a few rounds of the Thompson in someones chest and seeing that dust/blood mist off the uniforms.
Funny how something done so well can get watered down run into the ground and become stale.

Im glad i was able to enjoy it like i did as nothing seems to grab me any more, it sucks.

FYI, Red Dead Redemption will announced as BC one the XB1 soon. In fact, if you own it digitally, or you are willing to buy it digitally, you can play it now.

The trick is, you need to find a someone who owns the game and is following it (like JayhawkerStL). You then can find the the gamers and games they follow by looking at their profile. find the Red Dead, click on it, and it will take you to a store page where you can download it or buy it.

It works, as I have it running on the XB1 now. My club saves carried over, so John Marston is in the middle of Mexico, and I have no clue what is going on in the game.

After watching Hateful Eight, I was the mood to fire this up, but my daughter had my 360 at school. Now is the time.

It only gives me the option to follow it...nothing that takes me to the store.

RDR will be BC soon with the disc. Some people found a loop hole before it was ready and click bait sites like Polygon posted articles.

My understanding is MS confirmed it will be BC today but I haven't seen a link to that confirmation just a lot of speculation. However it will be BC as some point soon.

Just go to my profile, and then look at what I'm following. Then click on it from there, and it should take you to the page to download or buy the game.

Yeah, I did that but it only gives me the option to follow it. Nothing that links me to the store. All the other games have links to the store...not RDR. Oh well.

Looks like Microsoft killed it.

Only a matter of time before it becomes available. I'll have to search around for a pre-owned copy. I only got a couple hours in to the game initially.

Rocket League is Coming to Xbox One on February 17

Rocket League has been a long time coming to Xbox One, and the team here at Psyonix is incredibly proud to be bringing it to you thanks to our development partners at Panic Button. With their help and expertise, we were able to bring Rocket League to XB1 with a high level of performance and fidelity.

Plus, as an added bonus for Xbox One players, we have also included three of our previously-released DLC Packs for free already-bundled into the game:

“Supersonic Fury” – Two Premium Battle-Cars, 12 Decals, 5 Paint types, 2 Rocket Trails, 2 Wheels
“Revenge of the Battle-Cars” – Two Premium Battle-Cars, 12 Decals, 3 Paint types, 2 Rocket Trails, 2 Wheels, 4 Toppers, 2 Antennas
“Chaos Run” – Two Premium Battle-Cars, 12 Decals, 2 Wheels, 2 Rocket Trails, 3 Toppers, 3 Antennas

Xbox One owners will also be the proud owners of two exclusive vehicles — The “Armadillo” from Gears of War and the Warthog variant from Halo, dubbed the “HogSticker” – in addition to several Xbox-exclusive Garage items like Fizzie and the Overcharge Rocket Trail from Sunset Overdrive.

So how do you copy just saves or replays from your Xbox One to a USB drive? I can't figure it out for the life of me and maybe it's just not possible. I know where to go in the storage settings, and I can see my internal drive, external drive, and USB drive and the games etc. that are on them. The only options I seem to have though are moving or copying the complete game from one place to another or delete the game and saves. Nothing in between. Specifically what I am trying to do is copy saved replays from Forza 6 to a USB drive. These are not DVR recordings (5 min or less), these are actually in game replay saves. The game only allows you to save a set number of replays. Don't know if it is sized based, or just a number, but I have been cut off at 12 replays. If I want to save any more replays, I need to delete the existing ones. It's been awhile since I turned on the 360, but it seems that file management in Xbox One is not as intuitive and may be more limited, but it could be that I am remembering a feature that never existed in the first place.

I've done it before and the method is kinda clumsy. I go to the my apps section and I click on the game and hit what used to be the start button and select "manage games" and there you should see move or copy to. That's where I select the save file to move or copy to an external drive.

I thought Sony had dropped the hammer on Microsoft by making online play free again. But this is just for the weekend.

[Diablo25]

I have a PS4 Uncharted Collection (Uncharteds 1-3) digital code up for sale if anyone is interested. They are going for like $30 right now on eBay, etc. I'd part with it for $20 via PayPal if anyone is interested before I go the eBay route. First PM gets it.

Eurogamer posted a story that supposedly Microsoft wants to upgrade components on the XONE to allow it to play future games. The article hints that it could be upgraded just like a PC.

"It sounds like Xbox One will get hardware upgrades. Console to become "backward and forward compatible".

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016- ... e-upgrades

[Aristo]

My understanding is that it would be handled more like phones and tablets. The XB1 OS would become the common denominator, and Microsoft could refresh the console moving forward. So when you buy a new console, all of your content moves with you to the new device, and backwards compatibility becomes kind of a moot point going forward.

I think we need a lot more information, but I could be okay with that.

I'm surprised that hasn't happened sooner. The other thing i'm waiting for is Sony and Microsoft releasing a universal console which publishers have long been calling for.

The rumor is Sony is working on a "PS4.5" with additional power to output games in 4K.

Personally, I'm not ready or willing to drop the coin on a 4K TV yet though.

Picked up Ratchet and Clank last night. This looks amazing and it's really frickin good!

[Rodster]

Is Ratchet and Clank basically the original game with PS4 graphics? I already have the remastered PS3 collection so I don't know if it's worth $40 for this game. May wait for it to hit $20.

Brand new game based on the new movie, and supposedly it's awesome.

[Rodster]

OK cool, I wasn't sure cause all the reviews mentioned it was a reboot of the first game.
