    I liked Thomas Was Alone, The Swapper, and Nova-111. Heard good things about Stealth Inc 2, The Swindle, and OlliOlli.

    Here's some reviews on Wikipedia/Steam (because the reviews on Xbox.com are minimal) :

    The Swapper
    Thomas Was Alone
    Hue
    Stealth Inc 2
    Stikbold
    The Swindle
    OlliOlli
    Nova-111
    Action Henk
    10 Second Ninja X

    Yeah I was bolding up the others and the ones at the end were just mashed together so was looking at getting another list elsewhere :D

    So is it worth the 20 folks??

    The swapper is worth at least a tenner on its own.

    Ah for twenty quid i don't think i can ignore that value...gonna buy that now. Thanks for the heads up.

    And so the backlog grows further.

    It is eternal.

    So my plan not to buy games has been thrown out the window. Purchased the games and now looking at Lego Star Wars. :mad::D

    Bought Swapper on the Wii U and haven't played it yet, Olli Olli on PS3 and haven't played it yet, now I have both on the Xbox One too.

    Looking forward to playing Hue, looks lovely.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Good deal on the 1TB Xbox One S in GameStop(the world is ending).

    €350 for the 1TB console, Halo Wars 2 Ultimate Edition(includes Halo Wars and season pass) and an extra controller.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,857 ✭✭✭MiskyBoyy


    Instant Indie Hits reduced from 99.99 to 20.00. 10 games in the bundle

    They were selling the UE for €62 last week which includes the first game and the season pass, gone back up to €72 now. Still a better deal than buying the standard edition off Xbox Live though.

    paid the equivalent of about 320 euro for it in the middle east and it was the 500GB version with no extra controller so i'd say its a decent deal yeah!

    Cheapest controller I've seen brand new is currently 55euro so that's a great deal especially with 1TB

    Keep an eye on this thread Colm, the offers keep coming around, so you'll get one eventually. One thing you might be able to afford though, is an Xbox Live subscription. You'll get four free games a month, so you'll have a stockpile by the time you actually get an Xbox. You just have to make sure to get them each month

    Good luck with the car.

    Elite Controller and a choice of game from Microsoft for £99.

    Its hard to belive but i got the xbox one s in November.

    If only the start button could pause real life. Make it so, Microsoft, make it so...

    ...or is that what the Elite does?

    Been trying since yesterday to get this. Still out of stock but gone back up to 119. No free game.

    Try Argos then, still €125 for the Elite controller with GoW4, FH3, Halo 5 or DR4.

    Thanks but I was hoping to get rid of Halo Wars 2 and get the elite for sub 70.

    You would be very lucky to get the €50+ for HW2 to make that offer sub €70, you can get it for less that price new no bother.

    The Argos offer is €5 more than the MS UK one and you can sell FH3 or DR4 for ~€35.
