grabbed stuntman ignition last night on the 360, to download it to your 360 you will need the vpn to be active but if you download it to your xbox one all you have to do is change your console region to uk and it will download, no active vpn needed.

you still need a vpn and a uk region 360 account just to redeem it though.

While it might not be the best specials in the world, it is two very new AAA titles that are reduced in price if you are interested in them:

Madden NFL 19 - R649

Shadow of the Tomb Raider - R801

KB, mouse support is very exciting. My dream is for the XB1 to also have the MS Office suite available.
Then its a nice simple all in one kickass gaming PC.

Ahead of the company’s X018 show on Saturday, (mentioned earlier in this thread) Microsoft has made Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) free to download and keep on Xbox One today. The software giant notes that the full 1.0 release of PUBG for Xbox is “free for a limited time,” and you can download the game free immediately from the Microsoft Store.

Microsoft also appears to be making Pro Evolution Soccer 2019 free for a limited time, a move that is likely linked to its XO18 show this weekend. You can download Pro Evolution Soccer 2019 free from the Microsoft Store right now, though.

Does anyone know of a way to see my XBox games library outside of the console itself? The XBox app on my PC only shows me the games installed on the PC - State of Decay and Horizon. But how can I quickly check if I have a game on XBox before I go and buy a duplicate copy of it on Steam?

I did a search for pubg on the xbox app on my phone and triggered it to install on my xbox.

I assume this adds it to the library as I never purchased it previously

Also, not sure what to make of this winking emoji Tweet response by Humble Bundle to one of the XBox announcements:

Could one of the “big surprises” be XBox bundles on Humble I wonder? They’ve been doing occasional ones for PS so it’s not completely impossible.

Couple of interesting additions to XBox Game Pass in the last few days.

2 Likes

Seriously, the more I look into it, the better XBox Game Pass gets. Found 3 more new release games coming to the XBGP in the next few days:

Ashen (Xbox Game Pass, Xbox One X Enhanced)Available starting Dec. 7, Ashen is an open world co-op action RPG about a wanderer in search of a place to call home. As you adventure through the realm of Ashen, you’ll occasionally encounter other players in a passive, co-operative multiplayer open world. It’s up to you to decide how to deal with them – fight together against evil, invite them into your party or simply ignore them.

Kingdom Two Crowns (Xbox Game Pass) – Available on Dec. 11, in Kingdom Two Crowns , players must work in the brand-new solo or co-op campaign mode to build their kingdom and secure it from the threat of the Greed. Experience new technology, units, enemies, mounts, and secrets in the next evolution of the award-winning micro strategy franchise!

Below (Xbox Game Pass, Xbox One X Enhanced) – Available starting Dec. 14, Below is a procedural terrarium filled with life, mystery and death. Test your adventurer mettle against The Isle’s procedural subterranean labyrinths. Explore a large, interconnected underworld crawling with cunning wildlife, deadly traps and stalked by a shadowy presence. Survive the perils of The Depths and unearth what lies below… or die trying.

And also don’t forget this most excellent news from the X018 show a while ago:

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice (Xbox Game Pass) – Available on Dec. 17, From the makers of Heavenly Sword, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and DmC: Devil May Cry, comes a warrior’s brutal journey into myth and madness. Set in the Viking age, a broken Celtic warrior embarks on a haunting vision quest into Viking Hell to fight for the soul of her dead lover. Created in collaboration with neuroscientists and people who experience psychosis, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice will pull you deep into Senua’s mind.
