If they had absolutely nothing to ship me, they should have never sent me a shipment confirmation email and charged my card
.I agree though, they likely have nothing to send me haha.

Here's a couple vids we made to show you what this is:

In short, Super Time Force is a run'n gun action platformer where you control time. At any point you can TIME OUT, rewind and choose when to hop back into the action, pick a new character... and then play alongside all of your past selves. In short, you play co-op with yourself AKA single-player co-op.

Just in case it wasn't shared, Super Time Force hits X1 & X360 on May 14th (note: that's next week y'all).
YES! So pumped for this.
I had ordered worms on the 16th of last month, supposedly shipped on the 21st, but nothing, so maybe someone did just mark the orders as shipped in hopes people would forget.

Same here on the dates. The lady on the phone said "have you checked your tracking number"... I was like, erm, they sent me shipment confirmation but no tracking number...lol.
Ugh.

Ha, good luck. That's a tough one to pry yourself from playing. Also, almost didn't recognize you with the new avatar.

So Nutjitsu this week (In America anyway), Super Time Force next week and Contrast/Sixty Second Shooter Prime are due soon, Worms has disappeared hopefully we'll start getting some more regular releases.
Theres a 25% off sale on the Combo Break add-on pack for Killer Instinct ($14.99/£11.99) this week too.
I have updated the OP with new images to make it look a bit better. Scales well to mobile as well!
NinjaBee said they're announcing something at Pax (not E3) and Zen Studios who are releasing Kickbeat, Castlestorm and Pinball FX2 on XB1 said they should be soon...

I need some Super Time Force in my life. I haven't bought any "Indie" games on my X1 since Peggle 2 and need some Cappy goodness.
Below is also one of my most anticipated titles this year? Next? 

Looking forward to Nutjitsu tomorrow! Good price too
Sorry if this is a little OT. For those of who are Microsoft Expertzone Verified and are looking to stock up some cash for the upcoming digital releases, Expertzone put up $50 card for $20, $25 card for $10, and 3 Months for $9.99. Prices assuming you're at Expert level. Also they just put up the Xbox One wireless control for $21. Get it while they're hot, the gift cards don't tend to last too long.

Thanks!
I'm in the highest tier so I just got
Kinect Sports Rivals - $20
$25 Giftcard - $10
Xbox One Media Remote - $11
Fable Anniversary - $9
$53 after tax total
Was tempted for the Xbox One Stereo Headset for $29 also, but I already have the Turtle Beach XO Fours
Oh shit they put up more stuff! Good thing I went to work before actually buying anything. The Stereo Headset for that price is fucking awesome.
Those prices are insane. I'd be in for a headset if I was an EZ member.

To keep us a bit on topic, we have some new downloadable game news.
Pure Pool from VooFoo Studios through ID@Xbox is confirmed to release "this summer"
Nutjitsu is also out in US only at some point today, although I don't see that it is live yet.
(and yes those are great prices)

MS are having some technical issues with Nutijitsu going up, it's should be up very soon apparently, so still due today just a lil delayed.

It's still not up by I reckon you will be fine when you get home.
Is this what happens when you stealth release a game? Even MS forget about it.

Valiant Hearts, Pure Pool, and Never Alone coming to Xbox One this year
I hadn't seen anybody mention Never Alone, which looks kinda like Max: The Curse of Brotherhood but with local co-op!

Nutjitsu appears to be up if you search for it. Trailer is up along with it, too.
276.5 Megs. Claims it released Feb 13th, 2014! (-_-
Never Alone looks pretty nice. I couldn't stand Limbo, but this seems to have a nice bit of culture and personality to give it that desirable bit of charm. Really hope the facial animation starts to come though later in development; it looks pretty odd with so little.

I just saw that. Made a thread about it.

Whoa. I suppose this is interesting for people who use the Snap feature. Personally, I can't stand the screen real estate it takes up.
That's very interesting. I'll love to be able to play something while stuck in matchmaking or Dead Rising 3 loading screens.

Saw this on my twitter feed.

Just thought that may be cool watching something live on tv and you hit an ad break, just pop it on, play, then snap it back to tv.
Not surprised as I look at the title screen... its only about 60% of the screen .. a box in the middle and you can tell its a port but to their credit I think the price is low enough for a xbox one game they will grab some sales.
Havent played it yet.. will do here in a bit. Worth streaming to at least show it off?

Very interesting. So it's possible after all, huh? I want to see more such games, they would come handy while loading or waiting for a match to start.

Can anyone else snap game DVR or record this game at all? It's greyed out for me totally, I am thinking it may be because of the way the app is set up to play, does this mean universal apps can't be recorded?
Haha, nope. No way to "Xbox Record That!" of any sort. That's a small shame, but I guess it's taking up the "App" slot, rather than the "Game" slot. O well

Tried streaming? I can't even do that.
Looks like it's one for the capture cards out there.
Nope, I haven't set myself up for streams, so haven't tried that.
The first game without Game DVR! Not something I expect out of this, to be sure.

Per NinjaBee's twitter account, the game is technically an SRA, aka an app, so you can't stream it. That's one downside to having it set up like this, but I tried the snap function for this and it's pretty awesome addition

10 achievements for 1000gs. Apps can have achievements on XB1 (though they don't have any points for actually apps)
Yes since it's still a game. It's just technically an app as the developer noted.
Thanks for the clarification guys. Played this at PAX. Can't wait to pick it up when it's available in Canada.

Really interesting that it's a possibility. But at least the playing another game while a match is set up was promised by Ms to work system wide across all games in the system, and I want that!
But this brings up a great precedence of game apps that can be snapped. I think many W8/WP8 games would be perfect for that.

After the success of the driveclub campaign to get Sony to change that policy, I think we really need to start looking into a campaign against the release date parity clause on X1...
sorry what? There are already many cases where great games are not coming to Xbox. The Swapper, Transistor etc
With self publishing there is no reason for a developer to skip the Xbox even if it has a lower installbase.
This shit right now is actively keeping games away from the platform.
A single game not coming to the platform that might be available without the clause means it is stupid shit. Like seriously I don't understand this line of thinking. I guess you could go work for MS though, Phil Harrison seems to be right in line with you.
Please real based Phil save us.

The parity clause will have the opposite effect, instead of developers releasing day one and delaying other platform releases, it will just piss people off and some wont bother at all.
Microsoft need to incentivise parity - store promotions, tools (like free unity and dev kits which they are doing), assistance, good relationships etc not force it.
Microsoft are leaving money on the table by not getting every game they can on the platform, they arent the ones making the investment in the game, I really dont see what difference it makes to them financially except for not getting more money from their userbase. Not to mention whats the point in shipping dev kits to developers who then cant use them to release games on the platform?
I can understand the business point of view of not getting games second, but really its only going to hurt them long-term.
