I thought Murdered: Soul Suspect was really good. Loved it on PS4 when I got it cheap so looking forward to playing it again. Was disappointed with Airtight Games closing as I would have liked to see another game being made.

I enjoyed it on Xbox One, its a solid game, not ground breaking, but definitely worth a go. Also, an easy 1000G for you cheevo hunters out there.

It's a huge advantage that Gold has over PS+ IMO (speaking as an owner of MS and Sony consoles).

Good month to be fair. Soul Suspect looks good and was quite interested in it, but mainly play gold games instead of buying. So nice one for me. Good memories with Monkey Island and definitely appreciate. FarCry is FarCry. Will do. Only played the very first one on my PC and don't mind to give this a go. Heat.

You only lose them while you don't have gold, if you re-join you get them back.

You can keep the Xbox 360 backwards compatible games after your Live subscription has expired. It's only the XBOne titles that you lose.

If you mean are 360 games backwards compatible then the answer is some.
All Games With Gold titles are playable on Xbox One.

Probably a dumb question, new to this xbox thing. I have an xbox one, will far cry etc be playable on it? I'm guessing 'yes' as fable 3 is available (the only game I got when wife had an 360), but seeing how MS have changed the rules on live (no keeping games after expiry etc) I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't the case.

Yup, if they weren't when they hit they become back compat at that point.

Many frustrating nights were had pre-internet trying to figure out how to blow up a dam on Monkey Island. Compass and flint was the answer.

Monkey Island, Blood Dragon and Murdered SS. Already owned all 3 on other systems but it would be rude not to! Think when my PS Plus runs out, I'll switch to getting Xbox Gold Live, especially with the backwards compatibility making it worth my money.

Got both monkey island and blood dragon but have been toying with the idea of getting soul suspect so will give that a go as well

The ESCAPISTS this month is a big hit for XBOX ONE .... however annoyingly had to pay up for 360 version

Monkey island looks like Grim Fandango. Am I right?
Xbox one S is my first ever Xbox and other than playing original Halo through till the end on my Brother Inlaws Xbox I have never played or looked into any other game on the console.
I bought the Xbox One S because it was cheap and Sea of thieves looks awesome.

I was thinking the same thing. My favourite in the series by far.

I'm not sure when it changed but you can just download the XB360 Gold games on your Xbox One. Just go to the Games with Gold section on the console and press "Get". I used to go through the website but this is much easier.

I'm happy for blood dragon, I also can't wait till the base game is backwards compatible, hope that will also come to games with gold soon.

Really gotta setup my 360 to grab these games! I loved Monkey Island back in the day #ChildhoodMemories

Starting to wonder if it's worth buying the "maybe" games when they go on sale, they always seem to end up being given free within the next couple of months. Most end up being added to the backlog with no urgency to play them and then when they end up free I wonder if I should have saved the balance for DLC. The same games always seem to have a habit of ending up on sale too, so if missed they will usually come around again, just maybe not at the same price.
I would say I'm going to ignore sales and only buy if I wanna play NOW but I've already got mostly all the games I'd wanna play on 360 grrr... lessons learned for One then! :stuck_out_tongue:

This is the best GWG month for me in a long time.

24 Oct 162#40
Murdered Suspect is actually an enjoyable game, different from a game most would normally play. Monkey Island a classic and love the remake/retro option. Blood Dragon okay and Super Dungeon Bros looks interesting. Who hasn't already played Red Dead etc, better to get games you wouldn't normally buy! Variety is a good thing.

24 Oct 16#36
Entirely subject, but I absolutely love all the Monkey Island (save for the 3D one, that was awful), and Broken Sword games. I backed the most recent Broken Sword on Kickstarter and really enjoyed the final product. part nostalgia, part good writing, voice acting, puzzling (?) and storytelling.
cloysterpete
24 Oct 161#35
I'm sure he knows what type of games he enjoys without having played the game, it's pretty simple to watch a review and know if it's your cup of tea or not.
Is it like those Broken Sword games? So boring......

The worst month for gold in living memory. They really are burrowing down from the gutter this month. I'd expect the whole idea to get cancelled if the quality remains as such.

You know, I was digging your response there until your last stupid sentence! So just because I pointed out it's a (very) old game, that means I'm expecting the very latest releases of top rated games?? Behave!
horsepills
24 Oct 163#12
Far Cry Blood Dragon is awesome - very nearly bought it a few times so I'm happy with that.
Monkey Island though.... a 7 year old version of a game that's almost 30 years old!
chasolo to horsepills
24 Oct 16#16
yeah but if it's good it's good surely,just like classic films,never get old!
what you wanting, battlefield 1 or fifa 17

The age(s) don't matter. The original game is acclaimed for its humour, an aspect which stands with few rivals to this day. Set that among gameplay with interesting puzzles and a balanced difficulty and you have a title ripe for an update. The special edition hasn't fallen down on any of its promises in the meantime either, with highlights being the added voice acting, hint system, comfortable modern visuals, achievements, and the ability to play it on two generations of xbox, at least one of which you're probably still using.
another underwhelming month... think that's six in a row now.... :disappointed:

As a side note, most of the systems it was originally released on don't play well with modern TV cables, so even before its acclaim there is every reason for the update to exist. http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/the-secret-of-monkey-island-special-edition
