    Now I've to decide if the young lad is old enough to play GoW with me :D

    It's great co-op and they're few and far between.

    Did you pick up GoW 3 when it was Games with Gold? If so, you could save yourself some money and it could already be in your Ready to Play list - I had GoW 1, 3 and Judgement in my download queue once the Back Compatibility kicked in last month. They play great on Xbox One.

    I have the game discs, was gonna give the codes to a friend who got an xbox recently if I bought that GoW remaster, but will leave it.

    Just have him play GoW Ultimate on his tag. No purchase is required to get the 360 games.

    Vanilla Destiny is €16.65 too much for it unless you already have access to ttk.

    They send you 2 messages with redeem codes for the 4 360 games.

    You need to play online with U. E. before December 31st to qualify for codes.

    We will begin fulfilling these tokens starting November 19 through Xbox Live in-dash message system so be sure to check your inbox. Tokens will be sent out in waves and we will not get everyone in the first wave – we appreciate your patience as we roll this program out!

    I haven't yet myself either, apparently they're sending them out in waves. But, once you play UE online before December 31st, you should receive the codes.

    Sorry, but figured this is the best place to ask. Saw someone on the Bargain Alerts thread say he overheard argos staff talking about this being €230 tomorrow.
    So was looking at it online and was wondering what the difference is between this and the model that's €359.99
    http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2585530.htm
    apart from price and games included, of course?

    Yeah I seen that guy too, I was keeping an eye on the listing too.

    It's the exact same console but with free games for a cheaper price. €291 without any further reduction is already a great price!

    I'd be amazed if it was sold for €230............

    Edit: Checked this morning and its gone back up to €299 from €291.99 yesterday. :(

    Thanks.

    Just find it strange they're selling a console with games for a lot less than standalone which made me wonder. Thought it might include Kinect but doesn't seem to

    The problem with packages like the rare replay/ori, is that they are pretty much 'dated' by the packaging and bundling whereas the standalone console can be bundled with anything, accessories, games and it will sell.

    ARK Survival Evolved Preview

    "The XGP edition of the game will be available on December 16 for $34.99"
    "those who purchase the $34.99 Xbox Game Preview version will not have to re-purchase the game – which will carry a higher price tag"

    I'm hoping this will be available in Europe as well.

    Just so everyone knows XboxDad is referring to Ark
