Xbox Live is Live and Gets Upgraded

Examiner: "Xbox Live is now back online after maintenance. There aren't any new functions or features when you turn the system, but there are few new tweaks to Xbox.com and your Friends List -- detail that in a bit. This was for scheduled maintenance only and for Microsoft to prepare for fall updates that include Twitter and Facebook access. Service hasn't returned to everyone, currently. The service is working in many regions and will be up for everyone shortly."

You were hoping to get new features in a maintenance/prep shutdown? They announced the update will be this fall at E3 lol.

Chicken Chaser5421d ago

Thats a nice upgrade on the xbox site

I like how this guy just posts a smile and gets 12 disagrees lmao!

Edit:WTF and he now just lost two bubbles.

Gotta love how you actually pay for MS service yet you cant access huh?? At least Sony's is free so you cant complain... Since you bloody pay they should move you to a temp server or something while they upgrade main servers in this day and age it cant be too hard. But hell that would cost money and MS would rather screw its consumers with downtime.

Or we could be using LittleBigPlanet's servers, which constantly ban maps and kick you off at random.

This is awesome. It's one of those key features Sony have started to implement with their own 'trophy cards' and friends list but you can't interact with them so far, so they need to improve on their integration.

..is that they're now expected to keep up.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC8h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer9h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya7h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde6h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

RavenWolfx6h ago

Yeah, I loved the Legends games so much.

ZeekQuattro14h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia12h ago(Edited 12h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B12h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff218312h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh11h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia11h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins11h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal11h ago

The first game was the best imo.
