Dealspwn reports: "Screamride is one of the more interesting and inexplicable Xbox One exclusives of 2015.
The creator of Elite is working on a bonkers physics-driven roller coaster simulator where we can design our own insane rides, enjoy them for ourselves, torment their punters or then destroy everything while cackling insanely. A bit like a darker Rollercoaster Tycoon, perhaps."
Xbox Game Pass Quests recently reset for the month of July. So if you try to collect as many Microsoft Rewards points as possible, there's a new set available now.
Neil writes "It’s Tuesday again and that can only mean one thing – it’s time for another Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale. What bargains will be in place on Xbox One and Xbox 360 between the 3rd-9th May 2016?
There are a whole ton of them and surely this is the week for you to crack open the wallet?"
Quite a big sale but not entirely convinced all are decent deals. Glad to see the 360 gets a few more offers this week. I wish Screamride was on sale by itself!
Gears Ultimate Day 1 Edition? I can understand picking up day 1 physical editions at later dates, that were stuck in the retail channel for whatever reason. Late "day 1" digital sales make no sense at all though.
This is the 5th or 6th time they've had Battlefront on "sale" in the last few months
Still overpriced imo
Colm Ahern: "The phrase, “on rails”, is perfect for Screamride. The roller coaster, Xbox One exclusive, came out last year and is the latest title to get the once over, here on For Your Amusement."
Kinda wish this was coming to PC, if I'm honest. Hooking an Oculus up with this one would be pretty awesome. Or vomit-inducing. Either/or.
I don't get all the hate on Screamride. I can't remember any other game in history receiving so much scrutiny and critism. It is only because it's an exclusive, otherwise nobody would say a bad word about it.
No wait, that's not right. Sorry, I got stuck in "Defend The Order" mode for a minute there!
Still not sure about Screamride. I haven't seen any mention of an actual game or objective that ties the build/ride/destroy ideas together. If it does have a theme park management element to it then I'll buy it immediately, but it it's literally freeform building and riding I'll probably pass.
Actually sounds pretty cool. Imagine VR tech with this game.
Sounds like a bargain. It says "3 unique modes" so I'm guessing/hoping that 1 of them modes is a park management sim. Day 1 either way though.
