Re: Xbox One

I finally took advantage of the great XB1 deals going around and snatched me up The Division 1tb bundle with $30 gift card at GameStop, looking forward to diving into this system as I've been playing PS4 this entire gen which is great in its own right and now having both I can enjoy best of both worlds.

Only games so far are The Division, EA Access but looking for any suggestions on must have games for my new system, I'm sure I will use this mostly for sports titles I mean they just seem to be better on the 1 and I like its controller better as well.

Forza Horizon 2 should be on your shortlist if you have any interest in racing titles at all. Probably the racer of all time, at lest by simcade standards.

Halo 5 is like they perfected Halo in my opinion. The campaign is fun and MP is just dead on perfect.

Wolfenstein: The New Order is an outstanding shooter with a better than you would expect story. Again, it feels like Wolfenstein perfected.

Been looking at Forza Horizon 2 as I hear good things about it, I'm back and forth on racing games and haven't been dedicated to one in awhile, I'm going to give it a solid look and probably buy, plus it's an exclusive haven't played yet

Halo 5 is on my list but a wait for now until I finish up several FPS games on my PS4, plus by then can prolly get on the cheap

Played Wolfenstein it's not too bad, a pass for now though

Thanks for your input much appreciated

Re: Xbox One

I always recommend Rise of the Tomb Raider if you don't want to wait for the PS4 version in October. Wolfenstein: The New Order and Doom are very good games and by far, the best FPS this generation. These two games went back to what a FPS should be.

I have no interest in racing games but if you're going to get Forza Horizon 2, better off waiting until late September for Forza Horizon 3 which looks great and before I saw the cars, I thought it was going to be some kind of open world game. LOL.

Rainbow Six Siege is said to be excellent if you're an online multi-player guy.

Re: Xbox One

Just waiting on a good trade in deal from GameStop for my current Xbox One so I can buy an Xbox One Slim. Disappointed that the Madden NFL 17 bundle is the 1TB $350 version. Was hoping that it would have been the 500GB version. Oh well. Still excited. Come on GameStop, don't stop doing your trade in deals.

I think they will offer 150 for base xb1....Remember that having 500 or 1tb is irrelevant to GameStop as they give the same value.

It wont go for more then 150 so a new s xb1 for 299 will cost you half

Re: Xbox One

Trade in values at most places are around$100 with a controller. Ship has sailed for a good deal imo.

You're technically getting the madden free. Not a bad deal. I think I'm getting that one and keep it in my living room and my old Xbox one to the bedroom.

Re: Xbox One

In my opinion, you are much better off trying to sell used consoles on Craigslist or eBay than trading them in. You'll get a lot more money for it by doing that than what little trade in value you would get.

It has been 100 for a while but with new system coming they will bump it up.

Especially if you can bundle with some games, that's the key I think, and thus why I don't trade in old games.

Yeah....last fall there were some great trade in deals with Gamestop and others, but I doubt we'll see that again.

I'll just ride with my Day One until it dies. It would be great if it was now while it still under a squaretrade warranty

Re: Xbox One

This looks like a good deal! I think I'm going to get the S next week.

Re: Xbox One

$250 sounds like a good deal but at this point since I have not upgraded to current gen I wonder if I should just sit this out and wait for what appears to be an incredibly powerful MS console coming out in the relatively near future. Seems to be quite a bit more powerful than what Sony is going to offer.
