This Week's News

By Robert (A Virtual Duck), Week of March 11th 2014

This week offered some big news to Xbox owners. The Kinect became an optional accessory, Games With Gold was announced for Xbox One starting with Spartan Assault and Max: TCoB. However, an active LIVE subscription is a requirement to keep playing the games you get free with the program, unlike Xbox 360's GWG. Apps were removed from the LIVE paywall on Xbox One, and, unsurprisingly, The Division was delayed until 2015.



My take on this all is 99% of it is good. The Division will be a better game for it, GWG will get better as the deal is more convincing for publishers, apps will be free from their prison of a paywall. My only issue is the Kinect unbundling, but it will lead to a power boost and possibly the almightly 1080p, not to mention more sales. Oh well.
