    Alien Isolation is such a good game once you get into it. Playing with headphones is the way to go though. The noise of the Alien above and below you will make your flesh crawl.


    Christ, that game is not for me so :eek::eek:

    I'm with Glebee.
    Love, Love, LOVE the movies but you can't play a game while also hiding behind the couch. :D

    I take it that if a game goes off Xbox live when your still playing it you will loose access to it unless you buy it??

    Here's what's on the FAQ!
    xbox.com wrote:
    Games may exit the library after a period. Once a game leaves the Xbox Game Pass library, you will need to purchase a digital copy from the Xbox app or the Microsoft Store, insert a disc, or obtain another form of entitlement to continue playing the game. Xbox Game Pass members can purchase Xbox One games for up to 20% off (DLC and add-ons for up to 10% off) before the game leaves the active Xbox Game Pass library. Xbox Game Pass discounts are not combinable with other offers and are not redeemable for cash; discount offers exclude games within 30 days of launch and are not available with selected games; discounts based on Microsoft Store price.

    The key part being, you can get a 20% discount on the title if you buy before it's removed from game pass :)

    The Long Dark added. I really enjoyed that game when I played it last, a bit of a walking simulator at time but it had a good storyline. I lost my game save on Steam for some reason when they updated the latest episode though so not going back to play through the previous



    Also Prey was ment to leave yesterday, still playable for me today.

    Are all the episode out for that or is it still on going? I try to avoid starting episodic games that aren't finished.

    Xbox play anywhere. I'm getting great use out of play anywhere and cross save these days with high demand for screens in the house.

    Im trying to get fortnite to play in same house on xbox and pc and with ps4 from another house. Xbox and pc have ultimate. Wrecking my head. Was able to get ps4 and pc teamed together but cant get xbox player to join. I had big hassle getting sea of thieves to play pc and xbox together as well but got it working. Does anyone get hassle with crossplay and account sharing??

    Fortnite has nothing to do with game pass??

    Try going to the epic games website and login using your xbox account, this should link it to an epic account. Press the xbox icon on this page:
    https://www.epicgames.com/id/login?productName=epic-games&lang=en_US&redirectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.epicgames.com%2Fsite%2Fen-US%2Fhome&client_id=5a6fcd3b82e04f8fa0065253835c5221&noHostRedirect=true

    Dont see any option for this in Fortnite Xbox... No luck so far getting.
    Tried again with Sea of Thieves last night and no luck getting it connecting.


    Also getting voice chat to work from PC to Xbox is is as easy a plug and play both ends or do I need something else running besides xbox app on the PC.

    If the cross play option is not showing in fortnite then you must have some restriction in place at a higher level. Is it a child account? Make sure that the xbox settings on the account allow cross play and allow communication outside of xbox live. Fortnite runs on Epic servers including comminication, not xbox live.

    Gears Tactics is pretty good. The IP really suits the strategy genre.

    Those are all really good additions.

    I think FF9 might be my favourite FF game.

    Haven't played endless legend but heard great things.

    And of course Halo 2 is legendary!
