Yeah just saw that. This is why you don't build your hardware launch against any particular game! Luckily I don't care much about Crackdown but it would have been a huge downer had it been a Halo or something like that.

yeah, good point.

still, it's a disappointment given the already sparse exclusives lineup and after the cancellation of games like Fable Legend, Scalebound, and even that Phantom Dust Remake.
 
Yes. I really want to see how well it plays current games. But as with all these cancellations and delays of potentially big exclusives, they aren't a good sign. But the cancellations bother me a lot more than the delays.
 
Hopefully Crackdown 3 doesn't get delayed further, because that would be even more troubling. and if it ends up getting cancelled like the other games........oh boy.

I don't think MS can afford to walk away from Crackdown like it did with those other games.

I don't see Crackdown as an important exclusive at all. Would gladly trade Fable back for it.

why not both?? :o

but seriously, I do want both.

MS/Xbox has so many potential exclusive franchises they aren't properly utilizing, besides the mainstays of Halo, Gears, and Forza.

Crackdown is one of the only games I'm not interested in lol. Not quite sure why. Btw Battlefield Bad Company and Arkham Origins joined the backward compatible list.

yeah. I posted about Arkham Origins a few days ago.

I hope MS has some surprise announcements at Gamescom to make up for the loss of Crackdown 3.

the upside is that it's one less game to buy this Holiday......lol.

guess I'm more likely to pick up Forza 7 instead this Holiday. maybe ACO?

or maybe I'll just wait till Spring 2018 before getting the X with Crackdown 3.

Oh right, cool.

Forza 7 and ACO sounds like a good plan. Looking forward to some big games next year as I won't have all that much time to play the rest of this year anyway.

haha.......

yeah, I also have Zelda sitting in my Switch that I need to attend to. plus stuff like Mario coming out this Fall. Also want to check out Splatoon 2 and Arms if they ever go on sale.

then there's my PS4 with games I need to get to there as well.

hmmm.........maybe it wasn't the best idea to own all 3 consoles..........lol.

My main backlog is last gen games. Haven't actually played all that many different games this gen, although have put a lot more time into the ones I have played.

there are some last gen games I want to play, too.

but given my casual gaming schedule, I don't think I'd have the time to get to them.

was thinking about getting a used PS3 or 360 ( before getting the X1 ) to play some old games. but ultimately decided it wouldn't be worth it - time wise or even space wise.
 
Looks like there will be an "Easy Transfer" system to transfer your settings, apps, and games. You'll even be able to download the 4K files for existing game ahead of time to be fully prepared for the X.

I wonder when this will become available. I'm especially curious about being able to download the 4K files ahead of time, as that will give us a better idea of the extra file sizes needed for the 4K updates.

Oh great. Will be ready to go straightaway then!
 
yeah, just hope the 4K updates aren't too large on average.
 
And these might be the 1st comparison vids between X and Pro ( and X and reg Xbox 1 ).

^ you're welcome, Iceman.

Which one?

I need to watch those comparison videos above on my TV to really appreciate the differences. Will save those for later, cheers.
