    THE PRICE OF XBOX ONE GAMES ARE TOTALLY CRAZY. REALLY NEEDS TO BE LOWERED


    If you pay for Xbox Live Gold you get 4 games a month counting both the 360 & XB1. Everybody with gold got LOTF & SSOD this month. With BC a person can find some cheap games.

    Do you have something like Gamefly where you live?

    Buying games from US store on UK account and consoles

    ^^ you need to be angry with publishers about those prices as they are the one's who set them. Just last week EA, Ubisoft and Activision lowered prices for EU on PS4. The same should be coming soon for xbox one.

    I bet you it would of done better if they lowered the price. A lot of games recently have been doing this, in fact I'm going to get Syndicate later, $17 for it crazy.

    Gamefly is a subscription based game rental service that you pay a monthly fee ($15 a month I think) and you pick any game you want to rent for as long as you want , provided you pay the monthly fee . They send you the games in the mail and when your done
    with the game you send it back and pick another game.

    Is there anything like that in South Africa ?

  7. Just so you know OP.

    The FREE games with gold for the xbox one are not actual free games, but rather free game rentals just so long as you keep your gold subscription active.

  10. Yep . I got a gold subscription. The free games are sometimes good but are usually older games. How do i download the free 360 games onto my xb1? For some reason I can't . do I need a 360 console as well?

    Here in the U.S. the free 360 games are right along side the X Box One games; just pick and download. Believe you have to have a credit card on file for the 360 games, as it asked me to update my expired card when downloading one of the free games; there
    was no charge however.

    Peace, J.R.

    $10 is still too much, I demand MS to give me free AAA games because I'm poor and and a spoilt brat also the people making these games don't really need the money...

    You had no cause to post such a derogatory reply DWoodbine.

    Just my opinion!

    But being serious gaming is no more expensive than when I had an Amiga 1200, I remember some games being around £50, so games being priced as they are should come to no surprise.

    If you wait long enough you can buy games cheaply and gaming doesn't have to be expensive.

  15. Back in that era, the world economy was doing pretty good. Consumer tech R&D and manufacturing was expensive, and 3rd world countries wasn't being exploited for cheap (slave) labor.

    MS hadn't yet stolen free to use disc 2 digital software, patented, and made it their own. Nor had they and many others in gaming set up offshore HQ's and as a result pays less than 6% worldwide in taxes.

    What the average worker pay? A whopping 23.3% in income taxes. Not including property, sales and other taxations.

    So could gaming costs come down?

    If devs weren't so greedy they could.

    But as we all know... They even want paid when people post their gaming to YT.

    'Thats my game, I want my Google Dollars. You used my game to obtain follorers, I want at least royalities.'- lol. Oh the greed of the filthy rich!
