The Xbox One

Tried too, but the free login qeue is too long, I'll wait a few days until the novelty wears off for some. I might even buy some stuff, I remember I liked it a lot on PS4, can't remember why I actually stopped playing (maybe it was too much paid content, IDK)

How bad was the download and installation time?

How bad was the download and installation time?

To me, I started it before going to bed and when I woke up it was almost done, must have been 8 hours

I set it going about midday and forgot about it... Was playing it about 8pm (ish) ... So it finished sometime before that...

When it's installing on the screen with the big bar and Lex,Batman and Superman is in the background, do we need to keep the console on? Because I remember on PS3 or 4 if we backed out of the screen to turn off the game or console then it wouldn't load the rest until we went back to that screen or it would restart.

Hah yea, when I logged on last night, the Free Que was sitting at 249 minutes. Im of course a paid member so I went straight to the front of the line. They're gonna be adding more servers this week I believe though. So those wait times, for free members shouldn't be that long.

It installs like any Xbox One game. Just start the installation then you can walk away. Mine finished its total install in about 3 hours.

Took part in Gamestop's used Xbox One for 239 deal (well I traded in a PS vita and got 80 off of that, so I only paid 159) so I am now a member of the Xbox One club (does a happy dance).

Congrats! Hope you enjoy it.

 

[Dave McFly]

I like it so far I only have one game at the moment (mad max).

Thanks for the help, guys. Really appreciated.

 

[Tron Bonne]

I mean, sorry? The truth is that I don't know the answer, and I'm going to assume that no else did, either. I'm not sure what else you expect people to do if they just don't know the answer.

Thanks for the help, guys. Really appreciated.

You asked in the wrong thread and asked about a game no one else is playing any more.


Also, I didnt know the answer.

I had forgotten how awesome the intro for DUO was, It's still great and am glad the game is finally on XB1 even though it's years old.

Yea it is. Im finding it has new life for me as I never really had the friend base on my Sony platforms the way have with the Xbox. So its cool playing through the game again, but this time with buddies.

Both Force Unleashed games for X360 are BC. I'm happy 'cause I bought them a long time ago but didn't play that much.

 

[Dave McFly]

picked up another game for a good deal Need For Speed Rivals Complete Edition new sealed for 15 bucks fun game for low $$$.

 

[Dave McFly]

well I got an early b day gift to myself got me a 12mo Live Gold card for the One so I am now back online, yay!

So avatars are pretty much dead!? They're pretty useless on xbox one, even more than they were on 360. I never cared much about them but did they did have some great items and there's much potential for new items.

Maybe MS will announce the return of the avatars in a new way at their conference during E3 but I doubt it, I can't see it working with the new dashboard unless our avatar will pop up as a wallpaper background when we aren't using the console.

Perhaps new online arcade games with them or something like playstation home

Picked up Rare Replay (30 years 30 games) for 21 used not to bad it was worth it to get Conker's bad fur day and perfect dark and perfect dark zero

just saw a report online that Dragon age II might be coming to BC in June!!

 

[zeptron]

Having some problems with the BC here. There's a couple of 360 games that I have which according to various BC FAQS are compatible with the X1. But when I put in the disk I get the message saying that "This game isn't playable here". Anyone know what the problem could be? This is my first time ever trying to play a 360 game on the X1, so I'm not sure if it's something I forgot to do beforehand.

 

[X Knight]

^ which games are you trying to play?

 

[zeptron]

Alan Wake and Kane & Lynch 2 Dog Days.

 

[X Knight]

hmmm.....well, those 2 games are on the official MS list.

is your console hooked up to the net? have you downloaded the latest updates?

those are the only things I can think of.

 

[zeptron]

Actually I haven't downloaded the latest update. Maybe that could be it. I chose to stay offline when it asked me to update because it usually goes pretty slow for me. Perhaps I'll update it when I'm about to go to bed.

 

[X Knight]

^^ that could be it. these consoles can be quite picky if you don't download the latest updates, especially when using online/networking features.

btw, are you using the new dashboard or the old one?
