Oh. Apparently Sea of Thieves is exclusive to Windows 10? Okay great!

edit again: Holiday 2016? So we'll play Yooka-Laylee before we get to play this? Oh lol...

Sea of thieves is for both PC and Xbox. I will definitely be buying rare replay on the Xbox one though. I will always support my beloved franchises.

Oddly enough, with the deal to get $175 off an Xbox One at Bestbuy...

I'm planning to buy an XBO today

I even own a $3000 PC-gaming setup. Gotta catch em all, if you will. Certain games I like playing on PC, certain games I like on the PS4, certain games... well, WiiU for WiiU exclusives only I guess.

I actually just left the store without trading in my old Xbox 360. I was in the aisle and I realized… even if it's a really good deal, there are zero games out that I want to play. I should feel excited when I'm buying something, not like I'm buying it because I should or something.

If they ever put out any decent exclusives or system sellers, I would rather buy it at full price and be excited.

[dotEXE]

I went back and bought it because I'm irresponsible.

We have an XBone and I hardly play it because there's nothing all that interesting on it. RareReplay sounds fun though, and am looking forward to it.

Never had an opinion on pirates, so not sure on the Sea of Thieves game. They would have to really win me over at some point.

Because I don't own them on Xbox and have never played them until completion, I'm mostly looking forward to:

Conker's Bad Fur Day
Grabbed by the Ghoulies
Jet Force Gemini
Kameo: Elements of Power
Viva Piñata
Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise

I also love retro games and haven't played most of Rare's ones before, so I can't wait for that, especially as there will be achievements to aim for and short snapshots to jump right in!

(I'm wondering if Viva Piñata 1 and 2 are significantly different enough to both be included. I've never played them, but I figured they were both as similar as Sims 1 and 2 are. Simulator games tend to be pretty indistinct across sequels in my opinion).

I'm definitely getting Rare Replay.
There's a lot of Rare games I never got around to playing, I also never got round to buying the Banjo-Tooie and Perfect Dark Xbox Arcade releases, so this seems a pretty good purchase for me.

Sea of Thieves looks like it has potential, I'm just not sure whether it will achieve its potential or if it's going to be my kind of game.
Time will tell I guess.
At least Spinal is probably going to get an extra outing via a Easter Egg or cameo; good exercise for keeping all that weight off.

Interesting interview with a rare employee. http://www.gamespot.com/videos/rare-rep ... 0-6425684/

Some of the interviews and extra content in Rare-Replay reveal things about games that never made it like Dream and Sundown. Also he gets asked about Yooka-Laylee and said everyone at Rare is happy for playtonics success and can't wait to play Yooka-Laylee. That's nice to hear
