Eh. Guess I'll only get my Gold subscription for October, then.

I really can't see the logic in not giving out GTA 4. I already have it, but still, it's a great game, it'd make for some pretty perfect advertising, and it's cheap as hell to get a copy of these days anyway.
But... Yeah, I don't know that I will even bother downloading either one of those.

It's all very well that it supports 8 controllers, but the screen will look like a cluster f*** if any game attempts to use that to it's full potential.
Anyway, I'll probably give Vegas a quick whirl. I've got Number 2, and enjoyed it immensely, may as well try it if it's free!

The only place I can see 8 controllers being potentially fun: royal rumbles in the WWE games. Any game really where there's a multiplayer arena type overhead game. For FPS it'll be a giant cluster f***.

That's adorable, guys. Like any game will use eight-player local multiplayer. That would imply you only need to buy one copy of the game! And that just wouldn't be fair to the developers!

Maybe we'll have something a la Pacific Rim and have 4 teams of 2?

Playstation 3 had support for 7 wireless plus god knows how many wired. And it was used for 2 games almost exclusively. FIFA and Rock Band. I am betting FIFA is why the Xbox supports 8.
As for 8 player split screen, forget the 8 small boxes, processing it would be the real problem.

One of the Pixeljunk games could use all 7 controllers and X-Men: The Arcade Game could use 6 at once to recreate the 6 player cabinet experience.

Damn, I cannot believe this thread went over a month without a post. I know they killed the 360 for the most part already, but you'd think there'd be some One talk.

To be fair, the Xbox thread tends to get buried easily lately.

Even before the One was announced there wasn't much life in the Xbox Thread. Especially when compared to the Nintendo or PlayStation threads.

Oh I know, but the inversion of popularity from the Xbox thread and the pS3 thread is kind of fascinating.

Well Halo 3 will be coming free on GwG later in the month. That's something... right?

I mean, PS+ gives such great games away, but Xbox don't seem to get it and are just giving out old games that if you wanted, you could've gotten by now for real cheap.

Well, the game they have now (Might & Magic: Clash Of Heroes) isn't too bad. I would say it's good. Sure, it's a remastered version of a DS game and it's basically a Puzzle Quest with a RPG inspired story and cartoon like graphics, but I like it. Quite a bit even.
