Two new 360 games, The First Templar and Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader, are showing signs in the Xbox store as being backwards compatible soon.

These games are a little less exciting than games like Gunvalkyrie, but any potential BC news is good.

If we're bringing back 360 game show titles just do the right thing and resurrect 1 vs 100.

It's eternally funny to me that the videogame has far more affection than the TV show ever did.

Ask me about my XCOM and controller collection

word.

I started playing Marvel's Avengers... Does the game get better than the initial part of the campaign? I got to the part where you're Captain America and I find the control super clunky. Running around collecting the comics in the beginning felt like I can't aim the kid at anything properly. I also had a lot of issues aiming while flying at Iron Man.

My answer would be...ehhhhhhhh. The controls aren't quite as clunky as they feel in the first few hours once you get used to them, but some heroes just don't feel good to control (Iron Man especially) while others I slowly got the hang of, and started to actually enjoy the gameplay. (Thor is genuinely fun.)

Only about 45 min in but yeah it seems pretty good. My only issue so far is the perspective is weird in town so I’m having a hard time knowing where everything is without constantly looking at the map.

Got my Xbox back to normal but instead of re downloading everything, unless it was a BC game I've been playing it via XCloud. Had to use a walkthrough to get past a bug, but sable is still really fantastic and its first "dungeon" already shows the devs got what made botw special.

Just finished playing some Halo 5 multi, almost no loading to get in and out, plus no input lag, at least not perceptible enough to affect my gameplay. Just gonna use xcloud until it's detrimental.

Sadly it starts super promising but the ending third takes a very unearned turn and the game goes to the poo poo
i ended my 6ish hour run through wishing i had stopped after the first case to avoid the disappointment

Im going to move my Series X to a monitor so I can free up my TV. I have two in my home, LG 27uk600 and a Dell S2721DGF. From what I understand the first allows for 4K HDR and the second 1440 120hz. Which would you guys recommend for the X?
