    Why aren't there games for Xbox one?


    [quote user="WeatherPlanet27"]We are so disappointed with our xbox one purchase.[/quote]Never been an early adopter before?
    Did
    you check out the HTML5 games available?
    There aren't "no games". That
    you do not like the selection and ESRB ratings on what is available is your issue.
    As parents, did you investigate the games coming to the console before
    buying it?
    You aren't aware that there's a huge eStore on the Wii U?
    Given Nintendo's penchant for keeping games family friendly that isn't surprising.
    And maybe you should do some research into the game lineup on a console before buying
    one.

    Here's a hint: The situation isn't any better on the PS4.
    Let me turn this around on you - what good are kids
    who aren't old enough to play at least T-rated games?

    The people who buy $500 consoles are not , in general, people with kids. The people who buy $500 consoles are adults who are early adopters.

    :)

    Is there any particular reason why Xbox One games aren't showing up on our forum GT cards?

    Why aren't some games updating

    So, I set my xbox one to pre-download 4k content and some games did get updates. I switched over to xbox one x and some of my games still haven't updated even though they are listed as xbox one x enhanced.

    Specifically Assasin's creed origins which I am playing now. When I do the both bumpers, start select on controller it says assets installed is Durango only. A few other games do say Scorpio but no AC. Why not?

    Is this a known issue? has the 4k content not dropped yet?

    Kinda feeling like I wasted money if i'm not fully getting the benefits of the new console.

    Would love some input.

    There's more better exclusive games on the Xbox one than the PS4, my reasoning for it first. But with all new consoles there won't be a lot of games, if you bought any previous consoles on release before you should know that.

    I'll plan on getting a PS4 once more exclusives comes out for it.

    How about Lego Marvels? I hear it a very fun game for all ages. Game developers don't release their games all at the same time, it hurts their sales, usually early spring and fall are the best times for game releases, and Xbox One just barely caught the
    fall season, so more awesome games are on the way.

  6. Pretty ignorant to complain about the lack of games at the start of a new generation.

    [quote user="Triple Digit777"]Agreed with OP. On PS4 kids can enjoy games like Knack, Resogun, Trine 2, Flower, Contrast, Doki- Doki Universe, Tiny Brains and the list goes on.[/quote]There are 23 games listed for the PS4 with an ESRB rating of E10 or "lower".
    There are 19 listed for the Xbox One. A 4 game delta is nothing to write home about.

    ESRB's website is
    right there
    . Easy enough to filter and search.

    We are so disappointed with our xbox one purchase. There are maybe 5 games that are not rated M (not including zumba, etc that the boys are just NOT interested in). I can not understand why this console would be released at Christmas and no games available
    until the middle of 2014. We have 5 boys and they can only play Marvel universe and the Kinect sampler for so long! What a waste of $500! We bought this console because we were tired of buying hard copies of games for the Wii. We love the downloadable
    games--every console should allow digital copies in this day. But as far as the number of appropriate games goes, Wii beats xbox one hands down. Maybe we should have purchased the ps4. I'm just so disappointed in the amount of money for a useless console--what
    good is a fancy console if there are no games to play on it?

    [/quote]

    I'm not having a go but surely after spending this sort of money you would have checked the games it released with, what games were due to be released and when?

  11. It depends on what your kids are into but Zoo Tycoon is kid friendly but it's more the management aspect of having a zoo. Powerstar Golf is fun but might be considered too difficult for younger kids.

    It takes a while to make a game.

    Whenever a new console launches, there will only be a few games because developers haven't had much time with the console yet.

    A select few have access to the console while it's still being developed, but creating games at that point is expensive. The console changes specs many times before it's actual consumer release.

    Kids games generally don't have huge sales. So companies would have a tough time breaking even on sales if they made a kids game at that time.

    So most developers don't start on games until the final hardware is released.

    OP is a troll, together with Almond88. That amount of money on a product you have no clue about? If its a real story your either a mum/dad who's been miss-advised at a game store or bought it as an impulse buy, in which case you can only be responsible for
    your own actions. Either way I don't believe it seeing as you have the knowledge to come searching on these forums and start a slating thread? Why did you not use this amount of time on the research of the product to start with?.

    .

    Anyways must dash, I'm off to bed the fake missus, have 5 fake kids and then moan about how shite my fake PS products are on the Sony forums.
