Also, South Park Let's Go Defense Play coming October 7 for 800 MS Points ($10). That's a surprise.

Details on the extent of microtransactions...

I also learned a little more about your ability to customize cars. There will be an in-game marketplace within Joy Ride with accessories that can be purchased with coins collected in the game or directly with Microsoft Points, saving players the effort of finding the coins in the world. If they choose.

Joy Ride looks to have the art style ModNation Racers should have had.

Sebbi,
Where's my DLC!??!?!??!

We are still working on it... it's going to be huge. Lots of new tracks, plenty of new fun editor objects, tournaments and achievements. We think that it's better to make a really big and polished DLC pack, instead of a smaller one.

Nice. Looking forward to new tracks. The more the merrier. You certainly deserve the sales also. One hell of a game.

 

[Scott_Arm]

Awesome, sebbbi. I'll be getting it, even though I can't finish all of the extreme tracks.

Grats on the sales, Trails is the best of the bunch by far.

 

[Scott_Arm]

Sucks that Splosion Man was the bottom. Much better game than TMNT. Shadow Complex is also very good. I still have to finish it as well.

 

[DrJay24]

wrong thread...

 

[Arwin]

Good job. I agree with most buyers that Trials HD is definitely the best game of the bunch, or at least as far as I can judge because it's also the only one I bought.

I am hoping sebbi comes along and confirms Trials HD will be added to the Xbox Backwards compatibility program and ready at official launch

Inferno 2 still needs beating

Eurogamer points out that the XBOX Summer sale prices are already live. Officially it launches tommorrow (presumably with easy links to discounted games) but if you look at the games in the store directly the prices are already up.

I've already put some wedge down on Shadow of Mordor and Lego Batman. [Edit] And Tales from the Borderlands!

 

[BRiT]

Lego Batman 3 Deluxe Edition purchased.

I already own a good portion of the games listed though, Borderlands: The Handsome Collection, the entire Telltale Collection, Halo: MCC, Shadow of Mordor, Titanfall.

I'm considering the following depending on the actual discounts: Diablo 3, Ori and the Blind Forest, Dragon Age Inquisition, Farcry 4, GTA V, Saints Row 4.

 

[BadTB25]

Love Diablo 3, but you have to put some serious time in before it hits a groove (for me at least). Definitely getting Ori, Killer instinct Season 2 and maybe Lego Batman and Shadow of Mordor. Never finished any previous Lego game so not sure.
