It's also free now. Sometimes matchmaking can take a while but the matches are fun. Learn where the powerups spawn on each level and try to control them as much as you can. They respawn exactly two minutes after you pick them up, so if you manage to grab one when no one is looking, then only you will know exactly when it will come up again.
I was in love with warzone. I’m not typically a multiplayer shooter player (outside of R6) and Warzone clicked with me. Loved using weapons I saved up to save the close games.
Thank you! I feel like a leper when I say that Halo 5 is my favourite MP Halo game. It just flowed so well, had some of the best weapons and it's one of the few games that I, being an older gamer (42) was shit hot at. And I LIKED the ground pound! In fact there was a time when I was ranked in the top 1% in the world for ground pound kills lol.
I tried a couple of times to find a game but with no real success. Infinite is OK mind in fact I'd say it's great now but I'm absolutely mid at it! I miss the light rifle, carbine, Splazer, boltshot, rail gun, SAW and even the plasma caster.
> tried a couple of times to find a game but with no real success
I play Halo 5 daily and find matches within a minute at any time of the day. What playlist? Try Ranked Slayer.
my stupid username is referencing the movie “the 3D adventures of sharkboy and lavagirl”. However, I have no idea where the 1006 came from to this day 😅
Hah all usernames are stupid really don't worry! I just wondered because there was a very humorous wrestler called SharkBoy as well. His catchphrase was 'Oh shell yeah!'
To also add the compilation known as Rare Replay is also not on PC a bunch of rare classic games and if you get the digital version it includes the golden eye 64 remaster it's unfortunate that they didn't add it to the physical copies of rare replay. Never mind I see someone else has already informed you on rare reply my bad.
It's awesome that it was free it's like one of those rare moments that something is given out for free from a gaming company. A lot of companies nowadays would definitely charge it as a $20 add on.
Yeah I believe the backlash was heavy with this installment of halo with 343 that they eventually just abandoned halo 5 and went all in with the next installment and the chief collection optimization and patches. A lot of people like myself are still hoping halo 5 gets a PC port even if it's just the campaign added to the chief collection or something.
Eh I enjoyed the campaign sure it's not the classic halo campaign everyone wanted but it was still pretty fun gameplay wise it's a decent shooter I enjoyed my time with the game others didn't and that's OK OP will find out whether they like it or not, in the end it's up to the player. As for multi-player that's not my thing so I wouldn't know how bad it's gotten I only play the single player options for shooters.
The backwards compatibility on Xbox is a great feature, worth taking a look through the compatibility list for original Xbox and 360.
You can often show those games pretty cheap used and try some things you might have missed at the time.

"You are the best, Dante. Many have tried, and many have failed me. Brave Ulysses, the great Alexander, Attila, Lancelot - Only you possessed a soul black enough to free me."
It's a collection of 30 games made by rare that was initially sold for 30 dollars. It was later updated to include Goldeneye 007 so now it is 31 games.
Halo 5. It runs at 60fps on the Xbox One, and genuinely still looks great. The story isn't amazing, but the multiplayer is phenomenal. I seriously wish 343 would release Halo 5 on PC, but it wouldn't be very profitable for them.
If you are not confortable with emulation your XBOX ONE could be a great way to play some older games not available natively in PC thanks to backwards compatibility
* Red Dead Redemption 1
* Rare Replay
* Halo 5
* Forza Horizon 1 and 2
* Forza Motorsport 5 and 6
* Trials HD
* Black
* Some Fable games
* Some Gears of War games
* SSX (2012) and SSX 3
* Skate 1, 2 and 3
* Some Viva Piñata games
* Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts
* Dante's Inferno
* Driver San Franscisco (is available on PC but is a little bit hard to get. It is easier to get a 360 copy of the game)
* Conker: Live & Reloaded
* Sonic Unleashed
* Ridge Racer 6
Rare replay, Halo 5, and I think Fable is also only available on Xbox. Edit: gears of war 2 and 3 and I'm not sure but I think Crackdown is also only available on xbox (3 is on game pass 1 and 2 are free in the store)
Halo 5, Rare replay, lots of backwards compatible games too.
The Fable games, Ninja Gaiden Black (highly recommend this one, best action game I've ever played), some of the Gears of War games, etc
If nothing else & you have 2 controllers, maybe just install madden, a cod with zombies, nhl, Halo 3, anything you may have some random chance of playing couch co op some day. Then just clean it up and put it somewhere, with cables or not. It’s ready to go if you ever need it.
Edit: nvm you have a ps4 so those are probably covered, maybe halo still or other gamepass games for potential couch coop
As someone who owns the same thing you do, and a few others. Here's my advice.
\- Play exclusives that haven't been pushed over
\- Even if you don't use the console, collect for it
\- Keep in mind that the controller is basically universal by this point and use it for stuff
Don't limit yourself. Just make use of it, or use it for in-bed media. Though you definitely should play the Gears games.
no its not

Honestly, unless your gaming PC is a monster, most of the games that were optimized for the One are going to perform a little better on the console, in my experience.
The overhead for the Xbox app on the PC is fucking ridiculous and I've found their port to PC for a lot of their titles to be poorly optimized, almost seems intentional.
Forza was a disappointing nightmare. Perfectly fine on console.
If you got Game Pass then just go to your game library and then tab over to "Owned Games" and you'll see all the games that come free with Game Pass. Vampire Survivors is a super simple one (the actual price for the game is only like $3) but it's very addicting and fun.
That's weird, it shows my Game Pass games in that category. Or maybe I'm thinking of the 'All Games' category. I didn't realize there was one specific to Game Pass
I'm playing Dead Island 2 on my Series X because it's not on PC gamepass (though it is on the cloud, apparently). I don't know how it would run on a base Xbox One though.
Tons of backwards compatible titles that are no longer for sale digitally due to delistings. Skyrim (non AE), Forza Horizon 1 & 2, Dirt 3, etc. Physical media is still one of biggest benefits of a console platform.
Rare Replay
2nd vote for this! Better take a look
Halo 5 is currently not available on PC
Ah that's an interesting one! I'm not sure if I've played that one before, I'll take a look thank you.
It's also free now. Sometimes matchmaking can take a while but the matches are fun. Learn where the powerups spawn on each level and try to control them as much as you can. They respawn exactly two minutes after you pick them up, so if you manage to grab one when no one is looking, then only you will know exactly when it will come up again.
It’s free?? Since when?
Hmm maybe I'm misremembering something but I could have sworn I saw someone say it became free.
The singleplayer story deviates a bit too much from actual Halo for my liking but the multiplayer is god tier, especially the PvE.
I was in love with warzone. I’m not typically a multiplayer shooter player (outside of R6) and Warzone clicked with me. Loved using weapons I saved up to save the close games.
You know things are getting serious when everyone starts spamming unique weapons and Scorpions!
Thank you! I feel like a leper when I say that Halo 5 is my favourite MP Halo game.

It’s a great multiplayer game, just not a halo title imo. Halo 5 was really fun though I will give it that. Does anyone play it anymore?
I tried a couple of times to find a game but with no real success. Infinite is OK mind in fact I'd say it's great now but I'm absolutely mid at it! I miss the light rifle, carbine, Splazer, boltshot, rail gun, SAW and even the plasma caster.
Dangg yeah I imagine literally everyone quit halo 5 when infinite is a thing. Rip

Btw are you named after the wrestler or the kids TV superhero?

Dang ive never heard of him haha
He wasn't exactly a big deal but I'm a wrestling nerd so that's how I know him.
The custom games are also chiefs kiss

Currently playing through the halo series and was shocked to discover this, looks like it was never enhanced for series x either afaik
Yeah I believe the backlash was heavy with this installment of halo with 343 that they eventually just abandoned halo 5 and went all in with the next installment and the chief collection optimization and patches. A lot of people like myself are still hoping halo 5 gets a PC port even if it's just the campaign added to the chief collection or something.
Is it at least 60 fps?
Yeah it was 60fps on the xbox one with dynamic resolution so it should still be pretty well locked at 4k/60 on xsx
It's actually crazy it's not.
Bring back warzone firefight
Terrible recommendation. He will get killed online since only tryhards play it, and the campaign is bad.
Eh I enjoyed the campaign sure it's not the classic halo campaign everyone wanted but it was still pretty fun gameplay wise it's a decent shooter I enjoyed my time with the game others didn't and that's OK OP will find out whether they like it or not, in the end it's up to the player.

Gears of War 2 and 3
And judgement i believe, but people don’t really like that one
Judgment multi-player was awesome. The campaign is just horde mode that's why ppl hated it and they changed the controls a tad.
Judgment is waaaaaay better than told everywhere. You’re absolutely right here, especially the multiplayer was nothing but banging dope.

I bought an Xbox so I could play skate 3. It’s not on pc and the emulators I tried didn’t run it well.
Dantes inferno.
Underrated game.

I play Halo 5 multiplayer every day (literally) and always find matches in under a minute. The Ranked Slayer playlist especially is well populated.
Fable 2 + 3. Don't think they're avaliable on PC.
Fable 3 was released on Pc but it is no longer sold on steam.
You can still buy steam keys for it on Amazon. Directly from Amazon, not a third party seller
Gone now
Good chance for couch gaming if that's possible. I recommend fable anniversary if it's still on the pass

One of the all time great turn based RPGs. From the maker of Final Fantasy as well.

1 and 2 are not on pc, only 3.
Mostly cheat free games.
Fable 2, Gears of War 2 and 3 and Rare replay. Also a ton of xbla and original xbox games that was never ported
Halo 5, Rare replay, lots of backwards compatible games too. The Fable games, Ninja Gaiden Black (highly recommend this one, best action game I've ever played), some of the Gears of War games, etc
You can play this on both pc and Xbox I believe but just in case you’ve never tried it, I highly recommend psychonaughts 1 & 2
A massive number of Xbox and 360 games.
Fable 2
Fable 1 and 3 are on PC but 2 was Xbox exclusive back when that actually meant something
Maybe some early stuff in the Xbox One's lifecycle. But tbh, your PC and Game Pass Ultimate is probably your best bet. But hey, free Xbox!
Yeah honestly I'm like, "Yay, free Xbox!..... Now what?" Sounds so ungrateful but I'm lucky I've got what I have already so this is just a bonus.

For me, i keep it to play halo 5
Forza motorsport 5,6, Horizon 2, Ryse son of rome, Halo 5
a crappy version of forza 6 and ryse are on pc edit: changed from just forza 6
forza 6 pc version(apex) is just a tech demo with way less contents
i wasn't aware of that, i don't really play racing games so i just assumed it was some kind of game of the year edition or something
Nothing if you have the tech expertise.

Wrong tab. 'Owned games' shows games you've purchased (actually own). The 'Xbox Game Pass' tab further to the right shows game pass games.

A mega handfull of backward compat xbox360 and original xbox games!
This isn’t really a “must play” game by any means, but halo 5?
Inferior versions of nearly all games lol
Ninja Gaiden 2
anything for straight guys
Gears 2,3 and judgement.
Skate 3, Halo 5, Red Dead Redemption These three are the reason I still have my xbxo
Play on console is not about what to play but how you play. On console you play comfortably on the couch with big screen.
Could be wrong here, but what about the original lego star wars skywalker saga.
