Hmmm I could be wrong, God knows how I got this then as I sure don't remember buying it and did not play it at the time of release, just found it on my available backwards compatible list. I stand corrected! Cracking game though almost finished it.

Completed primal mate. Best dah and the woman and then lost interest because I had so many collectibles left to find but no camps or bonfires to take over. Great game though while it keeps your interest.

It's already been on GWG a couple of years ago that's how I originally got it on 360 , didn't play at the time but playing on xb1 now - well worth it for the price

Only £3 for a physical copy at CEX but good to see digital versions at least trying to be cheaper.

Now that I've bought this, I can almost guarantee that it will be free on Games With Gold shortly lol

Anyone happen to know if all copies of Quantum Break come with an Alan Wake code and how long that will last for? Only I'm planning to get an Xbone with QB later in the year and would love to play this masterpiece again. If not then, for less than the price of a meal deal, I'll just buy it now!

Yes comes with all new copies of QB but not sure if its for a limited time or not

Based on previous games, all copies should come with one. There was however an expiry date on the codes for previous BC games so I'm not sure what that is for Alan Wake.

Such a brilliant game. This is an great price. Heat added. You get this free if you buy Quantum Break (or so it said on the sticker on the box in Sainsburys today). Quantum Break is also a great game!

Cracking game, the atmoshere in the game is simply epic.
I finished this game on all modes, normal hard and nightmare mode, and it is not very often that i can play a game 3 times, make that 4 times since i just bought it, i can go and try and complete the rest of the cheevos. :smiley:

I never got Alan Wake. Way too repetitive after the first hour and the storyline was overrated and overdramatic. Hoping Quantum Break won't disappoint...

Each to their own but I loved this game. The big main stream games don't do much for me, but games like this I find myself getting addicted to!

I'm tempted to get this even though I have the disc so I can just download the digital version for the XB1 and not have to swap discs.

Good deal. I am playing this and Dead Space currently on my Xbox One. Ok the graphics look a bit rough but they both actually look ok and still are very playable. Both games just draw you in with their atmosphere. I don't think it is too easy. Not so easy when you are trying to get away from 4 shadows and you have run out of batteries and ammo.

it is backwards compatible so I don't see why not..even if you download the 360 version

Thought I was getting a bargain a couple of weeks ago when I got it from Facebook for £5, at this price it's a no brainer

Bought the game and the 2 add ons. Cheers to you and the op. Heat
Playing this currently. Too easy but I'm enjoying it, loving all the references to Twin Peaks and the Twilight Zone etc. Worth mentioning the two DLC packs released for this game are currently free as well.
