I'd go with State over both fc4 and DL.
It's rougher in the technical area than both of the triple A games but it's far, far more rewarding (imo).

Exactly. It takes two seconds to edit your post OP and include the list.

Is FC4's gold edition a better buy if you're mainly in it for SP? The season pass content seems a bit overpriced, but I could be wrong.
I have the Handsome Collection on PS4, and the few hours I've put into it so far have been great (Batman and Witcher have been stealing time away from it). The Vita version was somewhat of a subpar way to experience Borderlands 2. For that price, getting both BL2 and Pre-Sequel and all of the additional content is a very good deal if you're into these kinds of games. There was a screen tearing issue on Pre-Sequel but that has been taken care of (on PS4, and I believe on Xbox One as well though I can't verify that myself), but otherwise the games run really well and look really nice. I think it's worth it!
I'd like to second this. I have BL2 Vita and The Handsome Collection on Xbox One. I have had infinitely more fun on XB1, and you also get all the content, plus the Pre Sequel.
I haven't had a ton of time to put into it, but yeah, THC XB1 is great.

Only ME1 is available digitally. The sequels were 2 discs, so they aren't on the store. I hope they get added when they figure out multiple discs for backwards compat.
Wasn't Max Payne 3 multi-disc and on the store?

Yeah, I think it depends on how the multiple discs were implemented. For ME2 and 3 you were switching back and forth at certain points, which may have complicated things.
Yeah, Max Payne 3 was two discs and on the Xbox Store it's listed as 7.76GB.
I figured for $36 getting the Gold edition is a no brainer considering you get everything.

So I just bought $45 in Microsoft cards today, can I really not use this to buy games on the website?

Far cry is the same old same old. Dying Light was fresh.
Maybe Dying Light was fresh, but Far Cry 4 was fresh to death.
Edit: These are the jokes, folks.

It will live up to the high expectations and more. BELIEVE
I would still need a 360 Diablo disc to export my save though, right? I traded it in months ago.

I came here to say I didn't go wrong picking up Borderlands from the sale. Great game and fixed the screen tearing. The 1080p looks amazing as everything pops. If you are looking for something different from a military shooter or Destiny pick it up!
I traded my disk version in on LB3 at Best Buy for 9.90 with GC bonus and turned around and purchased the digital version with the season pass bundle for sub 14.00. It's a pretty good game imo.

If you've got young people at home to co op together, or enjoy the games generally, it's very much worth it. I got the season pass version, has lots of extra content.
I still play it and don't have much trouble finding people.

Got Sniper Elite for the co-op with a friend.
Thinking about the State of Decay, is it any good on X1?

I'm really tempted to buy this. I need something for the summer now that I finished batman.

Cool, I'll check it out.
It had some pretty severe framerate and black crush issues on xb1.
So just like every platform it is on
I bought but haven't yet played State of Decay on XB1 but I thought it was fantastic on 360 despite the technical problems

Torn between Borderlands and Far Cry 4. Leaning towards Borderlands.

If you can deal with some inconsistent framerate (not tremendously terrible, really) and some general jankiness, it is well worth your time. Best single player zombie game on console and PC, IMO.
Finally picked it up when I saw it was $20 and glad I did. I was scared because I read the framerates were horrible but so far I played the crap out of it this weekend and it's overall smooth, just some parts during driving got a tad choppy. Already own the original on PC but wanted to play it on the big screen and so glad I got it, it's mad fun.

Got only Assassins Creed Chronicles: China. Felt like a revamped Mark of the ninja.

Is there anywhere to check your current download progress that are downloading if your xbox is on, in the smartglass app or website for example, ala the way you could for PS3 through their website? It would have progress bar for each download with the percent done.
My xbox does be downloading at home while im away and would like to see the progress on the games.

It's exceptionally annoying that I cannot buy X360 games with the credit on my account. I have £30 just sitting there and no way to use it.
