Fantastic entry into the Xbox 4K family. This bundle is great.

FITgamer2426d ago

At $349 it's not very great. It's also going to be a tough sell.

Eonjay2426d ago

There is actually be a Shadow of War bundle. Is this still launching?

DialgaMarine2426d ago

The CoD PS4 bundle is a far better deal; you get a unique PS4 console + the game, at $300. I thoroughly believe that is going to sell far more than this bundle.

WithoutTheJamIn2426d ago

Clearly a cod bundle will sell better since it’s a far bigger ip, but thanks, captain obvious

Davidgr22426d ago

Lol game doesn't even reach 1080p on it

DialgaMarine2426d ago

lol Since when did the S run games in 4K? Not even the X can run this game at native 4K.

OpenGL2426d ago

The S probably doesn't even run this in 1080p since it hasn't run any previous AssCreed title in 1080p.

Animal Mutha 762426d ago

The S doesn't although it can output a 4K signal for your TV. Game still renders at whatever internally but in fairness the upscale is quite good. My S looks great on my 55 Samsung. Can't wait for the X.

Almost, Microsoft, almost. Two hundred and fifty USD is where a lot of potential customers would be at for this. Considering mainly only gamers either without a gaming system, or with a PlayStation 4 would be interested. The former would likely rather pickup a bundle like the Uncharted 4: A Thief's End PlayStation 4 combo for two hundred eighty to three hundred USD. While the latter would simply buy Origins on PS4. Almost, but still so far away...

Destiny10802426d ago

argos is selling an xbox-s for 239 euro with forza horizon 3 and forza 7

ONESHOTV22426d ago

Xenophon_York---yeah because everyone wants to play uncharted right? let me say this no everyone has different taste in games why try to push someone to buy something they have no interest in I own a PS4 pro but I'm sure Uncharted isn't on my list of games because you know I don't play brain dead cover based uninspired quick time movie based shooter I could give one sh--t if it has a decent story which is debatable at best so if a person likes a game like a--screed insert number then let them buy it.

10 Video Game Sequels That Saved Their Franchise

Video game sequels like Assassin's Creed Origins, Doom (2016), and Fire Emblem Awakening were just what these franchises needed to be revitalized.

Immagaiden388d ago

Lmao what’s Halo Infinite doing on this list?

Who would ever say Halo Infinite saved the Halo franchise

SullysCigar388d ago

Thought the same - very bizarre!

RE7 though... my God, what a shift over RE6! That franchise was definitely going in the wrong direction, so RE7 was a welcome return to form.

ModsDoBetter388d ago

Resi 6 was and still is the worst entry in the series.
7 was a great turnaround, despite people’s concerned about the switch to FP perspective.

DMC5 definitely helped the franchise after the whole DmC debacle. Whilst it was a decent action game, it was a far cry from the series and the characters we knew.

AC Origins is my favourite in the entire AC series. Despite the switch to a more RPG style of gameplay - the setting, soundtrack, length, etc were all amazing. sadly followed up by the ridiculously long and “more of the same” Odsyssey.

I don’t feel it’s fair to say the franchise slipped with Doom 3, Doom 3 was incredibly atmospheric and took the game in a different direction but there’s no denying Doom (2016) was sensational.

Halo 4 & 5 were disappointing but Halo Infinite definitely didn’t save the franchise? What?

TheEnigma313388d ago (Edited 388d ago )

I'm going to have to go with SMB 3. I was around when SMB 2 first came out and people hated it. 3 is still arguably the best mario game created.

HellspawnPR1981388d ago

"Halo Infinite"? Worse Halo ever. Whoever made this list just lost all credibility.

Hofstaderman388d ago

In future lists of a similar nature I have a suspicion Final Fantasy XVI will feature.

Six Best Historically Accurate Games

GF365: "Out of the many historically accurate games out there, these are our picks for the six best games that are historically accurate. While these games aren't completely accurate, they depict the times and situations of history well. Plus, they're all a lot of fun to play, too."

Historically accurate from the past is tough to truly know and judge especially the farther you go back because history is written from the people in power and doesn’t mean it’s the truth just the narrative they wanted to tell.

I don’t care about historically accurate in most games because they are games not biographies or history books . Just make the game fun , good gameplay and such .

Ghost of Tsushima wasn’t historically accurate in many things but I loved the game . Many examples like it .
