When Microsoft announced that it was partnering with the Ultimate Fighting Championship league – and its president Dana White – for an Xbox Live channel, I have to admit that I was intrigued. While the UFC clearly isn’t for some audiences (think of it as “extreme boxing”, where brutality or catching your opponent in the proper submission technique is key for a win), fans would surely appreciate the opportunity to check out their favorite fighters and upcoming pay-per-views from the convenience of their console. But now that their service is out, it’s time to see if it’s a knockout – or something that taps out.
Online multiplayer is back for 11 more games thanks to Insignia's XBL 1.0 replacement service running on Original Xbox consoles and the Xemu emulator on PC. Multiplayer, voice chat, leaderboards, etc. have been a monthly addition for many games from Xbox's past library thank to the team at Insignia.live! The 11 new games are now playable online once again after 13+ years.
Nah they will be tho look at rscs3 they have psn made in there emulator why not xenia bro?
Booo!! I was hoping that was Rainbow Six: Black Arrow...Boo!! again. I thought this coming to Xbox. I don't even read it I was so excited.
Has everyone completely forgotten Blinx?
Literally one that's called Banjo-Threeie and they start the game with Kazooie waking up in distress telling Banjo of a hardly nightmare while recapping Nuts and Bolts.
Microsoft never could maintain a longrunning decent 3D platformers series of their own
I don't think "longrunning" is really necessary... Isn't Blinx the only one that got a sequel?
Not sure if it was Xbox only back in the day but I'd love a current gen jet set radio!
Without a doubt, one of our highlights from EGX Rezzed 2016 was Table Top Racing. It was almost a classic love tale…”As soon as we locked eyes… (enter mushy crap here…)” – We think you get the picture. It just reminded us of a time where gaming was much less complicated and way more colourful, however at the time the game was only due to be released on the PS4… That’s not a bad thing. It just mean’t that being my primary console of choice is Xbox One, we wouldn’t get to play this any time soon as the majority of my games and friends reside in the Microsoft ecosystem – so when we got word this was getting a release on Xbox One, we immediately put our hands up and said “Yes, Please!”.
Really depressing to hear it went so poorly... was SO looking forward to this service!
The fight was really something else too! It's too bad the service didn't live up to expectations... Maybe it was just first day jitters?
I tried to watch it on XBL and couldn't ever get it to load, fail!
