Maybe ?

I game share with my brother and if either of us buys a game it generally downloads it to the others console without prompting as long as there's space on the HD available.

However where a game gets new content and I have the season pass I often have to go and start the download manually. I would expect that to be automatic.

So maybe.

I'm guessing that's set to be your home console rbonline? If so yes I'd expect the download will have kicked off itself. The only time it doesn't for me is when I buy stuff from the U.S. store and my console is set to UK but I think it'll auto download to my sons xbox (which is set to be my home xbox as we game share - and when I say game share I mean I buy them and he reaps the benefit).

Yes, we will. Things go in cycles and we always look back to our youth and when "times were better". There are some great games out already and there will be more all the way through this current gen. I'm optimistic that there will always be great new games to play.

The video's actually about the huge numbers of high profile delayed games. You cannot deny that this gen, delays are far more prevalent than ever before. If all the games had met their original release dates and been in decent shape rather than clearly unfinished in some cases I'm sure we'd all be happy as pigs in shit right now.

I'm not saying that everything until now has been a disappointment / not good enough and neither is the video, just that it hasn't lived up to the hype thus far due to so many of the originally promised games being delayed significantly and so often across the board. There will always be games to play, new and old while you wait for the biggies, I'm far from stating there's any shortage, just that the truly promising ones are a bit slow to get out.

My Son's pad stopped responding in the middle of a Fifa game the other day, the only button that done anything was the Xbox button, but that only responded as far as giving you the switch off prompt, switched another Pad on and that had the same issue, so must have been the console itself, hasnt done it since, but has anyone else had something like that?

Well then there's a lesson to be learned in terms of people falling for hype and PR all the time surely? I can't agree with that video to any degree as I've enjoyed the start of this generation far more than the previous one.

I really don't think it helps the industry when you have media outlets doing pieces like that with sensationalist titles like 'where are all the good games' and people then associate that with 'high profile' titles. We've already got a situation where once creative devs like Capcom, Konami and Sega are stuck releasing the same two franchises over and over or on deaths doorstep due to this expectation.

But games have always been delayed, this is nothing new. We're still waiting for The Last Guardian for example and when talking about Red Dead Redemption no one ever brings up the delays, just that it was a great game. Even the video is all over the place, he lists about three games from the first year of the 360 life that did something different and pushed things forward but then moans that there aren't enough games doing that now while listing three games that have.

Also if you're going to put out a video entitled "Where are the great games?", don't do it the week in between Ori and The Blind Forest and Bloodborne.

The problem there is companies putting out unrealistic release dates. They just need to stop with that.

Yep, it occurs there are 2 games I have pre-ordered on PS4. Both should have been released in 2014.

This isn't true of any of the 3 I'm expecting to buy on XBone this year but I expect at least 1, probably 2 of those to become 2016.

That video is the biggest lot of shit ever. A vapid mouth fart from a gonzo "games journalist" click baiting.

"Mid tier" development has now predominately moved to Downloadable games. What about all of them hmm?

Games have always been continually delayed. Remember the first Mass Effect? delayed over and over again.

I can. You do remember the running joke of the Year of the PS3?

Maybe a few more games are now delayed from November to March to avoid Call of Duty. but I don't think it's significant.

There are some rumours floating around that some former 2K staff and MS are working on a new NFL game that will be exclusive to Xbox One/Windows 10 PC, and that it's the revival of the Joe Montana Football franchise. If it's true, then I'm on board. Hell, I'm on board even if it isn't exclusive.

I'm taking it with a huge pinch of salt though, because the leaked post detailing the game sounds like some serious Xbox fanboy drivel.

I wish everything was revealed and launched the way Forza Horizon 2 was.

How was that? Was it just released with no big build up or something?

Think my Kinnect is knackered, it keeps switching off on me so that I have to unplug it and plug it back in for it to work, twice this morning this has happened, time to contact support or is it something others on the BETA dash have experienced?

You know that problem I had with my TV tuner. Well, I switched my location back to UK and it works perfectly again.

Yeah, alright. Shut up about it.

Mine keeps disconnecting/reconnecting whenever I play FIFA. Started happening after getting the February Beta dashboard.
