[yankeehater]

You in the new preview program? I am and the store has been acting up I had to try to dl the game like 5 times before I didnt get a error msg about there being an problem on their end.

Yes I am.

 

[bigNfanboy]

Any clue on what should be the july games?

The usual websites that are publishing rumors are mentioning some games as "candidates", like Dead Rising 3 and Ryse (one day, maybe, they will finally will be right about this, becasuse every month they use these games as part of rumors).

But, I saw one that s mentioning Halo Wars, wich makes some sense, but also mentioning L.A. Noire and Final Fantasy XIII, both multi disc games.

We know that there is no multi disc games on the backwards compatibility yet.

So, what do you guys think?

We might hear about it in 30 minutes, it's usually Thursdays @ 4 GMT ish.

Multi disc games work btw. Deus Ex is multi disc. They got it working a few weeks ago.

 

[Mrstriker09]

Any rumors on July GWG? Hopefully we'll know this week.

 

[A.D. Skinner]

We know that there is no multi disc games on the backwards compatibility yet.

Deus Ex HR Directors Cut is. It doesn't recognise the 2nd disc, but when you put in the first it downloads the whole game. 12+gb download.

lol.

That kind of makes me want to play The Crew.

 

[ShapeGSX]

They added multi disc game backwards compatibility a while ago.

 

[bigNfanboy]

They added multi disc game backwards compatibility a while ago.

I can't think of any, though.
I really want to buy Mass Effect 2 and 3, but, they don't work yet. I always thought this has something to do with the fact that they are multi disc games. :/

Deus Ex Human Revolution Director's Cut was the first, it only happened about a month ago.

 

[Montresor]

My hope for July:

AC Syndicate
Superhot
Enslaved
Kingdoms of Amalur

 

[BKSmash]

Give us Dead Rising 3 and I'm forever grateful, Phil.

 

[GringoSuave89]

My hope for July:

AC Syndicate
Superhot
Enslaved
Kingdoms of Amalur

This like JUST came out. Can't see it being free.

 

[JigglesBunny]

My hope for July:

AC Syndicate
Superhot
Enslaved
Kingdoms of Amalur

I see none of this happening, to be honest.

 

[ROUGE_BLOCK]

My hope for July:

AC Syndicate
Superhot
Enslaved
Kingdoms of Amalur

Yeah i think these hopes reach a little too high lol..
Though I would love to try Kingdoms of Amalur again

 

[DagnastyEp]

My hope for July:

AC Syndicate
Superhot
Enslaved
Kingdoms of Amalur

I think it's too early for AC:S and Superhot, but I would love Enslaved.

I'm hoping with multi-disc now working that we get Mass Effect 2 and/or 3.

 

[SicSemperTyrannis]

I'd be happy with Kingdoms of Amalur being BC, I already own the game Everyone being able to play the best Fable game everyone skipped would be an added bonus though!

 

[Montresor]

You guys are right. Those XB1 choices are too new... I'll change it to:

Dead Rising 3 Apocalypse Edition
Gemini Heroes Reborn
Assassin's Creed Rogue
Splinter Cell Blacklist

 

[#sorrynotsorry]

AC Rogue would be great and even feasible. Beyond that I will continue hoping for Forza Horizon because I want it BC.

 

[Vinc]

Fable Anniversary pleaaaaaase

 

[Xumbrega]

I think Fallout NV will be one of the GwG

 

[flkraven]

Man, The Crew is awesome. Best GwG imo.

 

[etta]

Man, The Crew is awesome. Best GwG imo.

You misspelled Sunset Overdrive.

 

[flkraven]

You misspelled Sunset Overdrive.

I bought the white console which included Sunset. Best game of the generation. Always forget it was GwG since I bought it and all the dlc .

Well, The Crew is the best multiplayer focused GwG giveaway this gen

 

[Booker.DeWitt]

You misspelled Sunset Overdrive.

THIS!!!!

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

Haha. Yeah. But The Crew is a cool game that got dogged when it was released.

Definitely a great addition to GwG because people get to check it out and see it's a lot of fun.

 

[GringoSuave89]

I think Fallout NV will be one of the GwG

I would love that.

 

[m23]

It's finally time for ryse.

 

[jmizzal]

It's finally time for ryse.

I hope so

 

[speedomodel]

Damn, June flew by. We should be hearing July soon!

Hoping for:
Don't Starve
Agatha Christie: The ABC Murders

Forza Horizon
Far Cry 2

 

[jesu]

Nah it's time for Lococycle!

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

I'm predicting a TERRIBLE month. We've had a few good ones in a row now.

 

[Backlogger]

AC Rogue would be great and even feasible. Beyond that I will continue hoping for Forza Horizon because I want it BC.

Is AC Rogue backwards compatible?

 

[woodsey1982]

Hoping for :

Inside
MGS : TPP

Blur
Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions

 

[Chris1]

Is AC Rogue backwards compatible?

Not yet

They'll probably keep AC Rogue until next year before AC 2017. Make it BC, get some sales, then make it GWG just before AC2017.

 

[webkatt]

Amazing Spiderman 2

 

[LlamaJohnson]

Having played the Crew, and enjoying it, should I get Forza Horizon 2? I've never been a car game guy, but this open world bit was pretty fun.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Hoping for :

Inside
MGS : TPP

Blur
Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions

Inside is out on Wednesday for £15.99 so that won't be a GwG title, just buy it anyway

 

[Yasir]

Damn. The crew is shit.
Handling model is very weird.

Back to FH2

 

[backflip10019]

Damn, June flew by. We should be hearing July soon!

Hoping for:
Don't Starve
Agatha Christie: The ABC Murders

Forza Horizon
Far Cry 2

Those are some realistic expectations if I've ever seen them.

 

[woodsey1982]

Having played the Crew, and enjoying it, should I get Forza Horizon 2? I've never been a car game guy, but this open world bit was pretty fun.

YES!

Not a big racing game man myself - but love FH2 - one of my most played games this gen.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Having played the Crew, and enjoying it, should I get Forza Horizon 2? I've never been a car game guy, but this open world bit was pretty fun.

I enjoyed FH2 immensely more than The Crew, better soundtrack too. So yeah, if you see it on sale, I'd grab it.

 

[Chris1]

My Prediction...
Dishonoured or Titanfall
Contrast

Mass Effect 3
Injustice

Having played the Crew, and enjoying it, should I get Forza Horizon 2? I've never been a car game guy, but this open world bit was pretty fun.

Forza Horizon 2 is far superior.

Those are some realistic expectations if I've ever seen them.

Where's the fun in realistic expectations? Give me Overwatch or nothing, Microsoft!

 

[LlamaJohnson]

YES!

Thanks! Going to get it this weekend. I have some extra money in my account.

 

[smokeymicpot]

I'm predicting a TERRIBLE month. We've had a few good ones in a row now.

Same think we are sadly due for one. I see Stick of Truth being a game with gold sometime soon. I can see that easily being the game for November or December.

Don't you get it free with TFBW?

Idk, these next couple months have a lot of sequels coming out that's predecessors haven't been GWG yet. Titanfall, Dishonoured, Watch dogs, Gears UE, BF4, DR3.

Titanfall and BF4 are iffy because of EA Access and they're shooters, can't release them too close to sequels but I could definitely see the rest.

 

[flkraven]

Damn. The crew is shit.
Handling model is very weird.

Back to FH2

There are some handling options you can tweak to make it feel a bit better, but keep in mind that The Crew is more like an Mmo than a racing game. As you level up and get better "gear" your handling, speed, etc improves. It's incredible with friends.

 

[Truelize]

I have high hopes for the July games. I would think that after PSN gave away NBA2k16 that the pressure is on Microsoft to match that level of quality.

Pressure is still on Sony. This year had been abysmal compared to MS offerings.
