Is there a game that has gameplay closer to Anthem and content like Division 2? I couldn't stand the controls in the original Division, absolutely love them in Anthem.



Motherfucker. It's time to update! Right as I was being loaded into my hunt.
Warframe is probably closest. You can't fly but it has a lot of focus on movement and there are a lot of abilities across all the Frames. If you want content like Division 2 you're looking at slim pickings, pretty much the other looter shooters like Destiny and Borderlands. Warframe beats the rest in sheer content because it's been going for 6 years on one platform, unlike Destiny and Division that started from scratch for their sequels.

Mass Effect Andromeda probably plays the closets on a pure gameplay level. Anthem basically has the same combat but with added flight and less variety in it's abilities. This in turn was a refinement of Mass Effect 2 and 3's combat.

I'm curious what you are specifically looking for with Anthem gameplay as a reference, I thought the guns and melee all felt pretty bad myself.

 
Weird. Have EA Access and it’s not letting me buy NHL 19 outright. Only gives option to buy as a gift.

i might be because its in EA Access vault
I know the answer to this! I had the same problem with PvZ GW2 when it was a Game with Gold in March. If you have already gotten it with EA Access (and, I assume you still have an active EA Access account), you aren't able to "purchase" it on either the Website or the Xbox One for Free when it goes Games With Gold. God knows why, it must be a glitch between the two services. HOWEVER YOU CAN STILL PURCHASE IT ON THE XBOX PHONE APP! That was the only way I could figure out how to get it.

Awesome. I’ll give that a shot. Thanks!

Obviously want to lock it in for if I ever cancel Access.

Thanks. Worked for me but I had to do it twice for it to show as purchased though.

 
so i take it if i have a game through EA Access and it becomes GWG and i let my EA Access run out i dont get the game even though i had to downloaded already?

Not unless you do what we just did and “buy” it via GWG. You’ll lose access to anything in EA Access if you cancel it and don’t own it some other way.

thats what im gonna have to do wonder if thats how it is for gamepass because i got comic jumper from when it was on gamepass and since it went GWG i already had it and never tried to download it again...guess ill have to start it to see if it plays or not

 
The thing about the 2500 points if you buy or rent 3 movies is that it usually resets each month. Probably need to buy all three tonight for 2500 points. Keep checking, though, it may have a new promotion tomorrow. Maybe you can get another 2500 points for 3 more movies. They do have to be over $4 in value to count. I assume that doesn't include tax.

 
Had a friend who did three of the $3.99 movies in the sale and got the 2500 points instantly after buying them so apparently $3.99 at least, still works.
 
WTF

Classic D&D RPGs Baldur’s Gate, Planescape: Torment and more coming to consoles

These are literally some of my most favoritest CRPGs (is that the right word?).  The article doesn't mention anything about Neverwinter Nights 2 or Icewind Dale 2, so maybe we'll see announcements for them in the future.  This is obviously a cash grab, but it might just work on me...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fI0p4dSKlQ

  • The Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition Pack: Includes Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition, Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition, the Baldur’s Gate: Siege of Dragonspear expansion, and new original content developed by Beamdog to bridge the two games. Available Sept. 24 in North America, Sept. 27 elsewhere.
  • Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition / Icewind Dale Enhanced Edition: Includes both games and all downloadable content. Available Sept. 24 in North America, Sept. 27 elsewhere.
  • Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition: Includes the game, all its downloadable content, with co-op and online multiplayer. Available Dec. 3 in North America, Dec. 6 elsewhere.
 
This calls for a celebration. Bring on the cake!!!

Not sure why I thought Planescape Torment was already on consoles.
Spiritual successor Torment: Tides of Numenera probably.

Hopefully these are well thought out conversions. Honestly I have a hard time with these isometric games but I'd like to give them a shot. Kind of odd to drop two of them on the same day.

Edit:

Woah, these bad boys are $49.99 each. It's not too bad compared to PC for the first two that have two games each, but Neverwinter Nights is only $20 on Steam. The Siege of Dragonspear it mentions for Bauldur's Gate isn't exactly new either, it came out in 2016.

Haven't seen this anywhere, we have an actual statement about Minecraft Telltale. I'm pretty shocked that this game is just getting flushed honestly. (And I realized I can self-quote for an easy highlight box, duh)

I wish they had made some formal announcement before they delisted the other games.

Yes there was so many opportunities to buy them on sale but I didn't know I needed them until they're gone.

I think it's time for me to scoop up Batman and I think one other series I don't have.
 
I forgot that still have an unredeemed Minecraft Xbox One Creator's Pack key from buying the Minecraft Xbox One S last Black Friday.  I think that I will finally cash it in this weekend to see what all the fuss is about since I have never actually played Minecraft.  Yes, I do live under a rock.  But between trying out that game, Outer Wilds, and Portal: Still Alive, that's probably gonna be my weekend right there.  

 
You replied as I was typing mine yes my thoughts exactly. The only reason I even have TT Minecraft was because of CD keys selling it for like $2
 
Spiritual successor Torment: Tides of Numenera probably.

I just bought all of them* on my iPad for $3.99 each like two weeks back. I instantly regretted it because touch controls aren't precise enough. With a good button layout I can see them being better on console, but there's a reason KotOR and Dragon Age were such big hits on console.

*I guess I didn't get NWN. I remember hating that game after playing hundreds of hours of BG 1&2. I think it was the move to polygon characters instead of sprites. Conversion to 3rd Ed D&D probably didn't help even tho I was playing the tabletop version.

When I logged into Steam on my PC this morning, an automatic update started for Rivals of Aether which I don't remember buying or downloading.  But since it's one of the Xbox One Games With Gold offerings for June, I thought that I would play it a bit and give you guys my impressions.  

It's exactly what I thought that it was when I posted the other day - a relatively competent clone of the Nintendo game Super Smash Bros with pixel-based graphics.  The button layout is almost exactly the same.  The major difference here is that there aren't any popular Nintendo characters to choose from.  So you have to learn what the different attacks are that each character has in order to find out which one is your favorite.  I've been playing through the story mode with the bird character, and I haven't tried any of the others yet.  

I can see that Rivals of Aether has the potential to be a decent multiplayer game on Xbox Live when it shows up on Games With Gold since Brawlout is the only other Smash Bros clone on Xbox.  And if you don't go in expecting too much, it's a fun game with a lot of depth.

Am I understanding this correctly? Even if you bought Minecraft Story mode you can't re-download it after a certain date?

 
I believe that's the case with all of these telltale games. The ones that have already been delisted are completely unavailable as far as i know

TCL 55" also on sale for $440 if the 65" was out of your price range yesterday:

Depending on what features you have to have, you can do even better. I just price matched a 400 series TCL 55" at Best Buy to Walmart who has it on sale for $299. I got it for our regular TV viewing in the living room, no game systems attached - but damn if it isn't nice (especially for the price). Great picture, really nice features and it does Roku better than an actual Roku stick. You can even attach a thumb drive and rewind live broadcast TV (which it integrates along with the Bluray into the Roku ecosystem seamlessly).

 
Was able to claim PS+ exclusive skins for Dauntless over there and actually have them useable on Xbox. I know previous console exclusives didn't carry over for other games.
 
I bought The Telltale Collection or whatever it was called that launched early on in the XB1 cycle, it included TWD 1 and 2, The Wolf Among Us, Tales From The Borderlands and Game Of Thrones.  Has anyone had any luck getting a refund on Game Of Thrones now that it's been delisted?
