Damn, and I just bought Tomb Raider last month. It was only $10, oh well.

[Kalmado]

So far I'm extremely happy I bought Xbox live over PS+.

[Salodin]

Well that's one way to lower manufacturing costs...

[Ardrial]

Hey you remember back at launch when we didn't allow used games or trading or reselling? Yeah lets go back to that.

[Krandor]

Or they know that there's a market for people who never use the drive and would like to save some money. I personally have not used the disc drive in my One a single time.

[Tyrath]

As long as its not forced and the only option, it doesn't matter.

[Anoat]

Even if I got all of my games digitally (I wouldn't), I would still want a drive for DVD and Blu-Ray.

[Ardrial]

As long as its not forced and the only option, it doesn't matter.

This is the big question. Because, every single time a slim console comes out, they discontinue the old option and only offer the new slim version. Ps1, ps2, ps3, Xbox 360. All discontinued the old version of the console. They gotta know it'd be silly to do that though.

Can you believe it’s been seven years since Castle Crashers debuted on Xbox 360? Those seven years of technology getting more and more powerful means we can harness that new technology! Yes! We shall harness this technology to make an even better version of our game! I say let’s get all Next-Gen up in here. Yes, no, maybe so?

September 9th, 2015 is the release date for Castle Crashers Remastered (CCR) on Xbox One! Yeah!! CCR being our new improved version of Castle Crashers, of course. We’ve been working on this update for the past year. Whew!

Here’s the skinny FAT you’ll find inside CCR:

-New multiplayer mini-game called Back Off Barbarian
-Five times larger texture sizes than the original!
-Twice the framerate of the original! (60 frames per second)
-Performance updates, gameplay tweaks
-Online multiplayer performance updates
-Ability to find games easier and quicker online


Please note that we plan to release CCR for North America on launch day with other countries to follow as ratings are approved.

Pricing
Castle Crashers Remastered on Xbox One will be $14.99 which is our usual cost of admission for this classic game baby. However…if you’ve previously owned Castle Crashers on Xbox 360, you shall receive our Thank-You-For-Saving-Our-Lives-That-One-Time special price of FREE THROUGH SEPTEMBER 20th with current Xbox Live Gold membership. Be sure to scoop it up early if you want to take advantage of that awesomeness. $0.00 for our game feels like a pretty good deal to me!!!!! (I’m not much of a businessman though!!!!)

The good news is starting September 21, 2015 we’ll still have a loyalty discount for Xbox One owners, which will bring CCR’s cost down to only $5.00 if you’ve owned it before. This special $5 price is available for any Xbox Live Gold members who are previous owners of Castle Crashers on Xbox 360.

Backwards compatibility on November 12th.

[Deader2818]

The 12th, actually.

[Obsidian]

Along with the new dashboard.

[BadKarma]

Along with the new dashboard.

Which means fully remappable buttons on controllers woo.

[Anoat]

November Games With Gold. This...this is pretty disappointing.
