Anyone know of any good Sci-Fi games, FPS, RPG or otherwise for Xbox one.

No Man’s Sky is out whether or not its on Xbox one

I have Fallout 3, NV and 4, All Mass Effect, All Dead Space, Rage, Borderlands, Deus Ex games, Prey (360, Portal (hate it) Watch Dogs, Metro LL/2033 etc… Anything else besides those and The Solus Project? I can’t find anything else worth giving a shot until the new Mass Effect comes out… Any Ideas?

Thank ahead of time.

I confess I haven’t sat down to put time into it, but Elite is there for a bit of flying and trading. If you’re not keen on NMS I’m not sure what you’d make of it though.

I have not played it but I have heard good things about Titanfall 2 (I was stung by Titanfall 1 and just can’t bring myself to get #2).

Overwatch

Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor

Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Bioshock Collection

Awesome, Thank you, I will look into some of those, yeah I forgot I also have Dishonored and Bioshock, so those are out. Elite sounds promising, No Mans Sky gets me worried, I just don’t have a good record with getting games that are first released to PS4, seems like they are buggier, and I know about bugs/glitches, I’m a Bethesda fan (Fallout). I converted from being a PC fanboy to Xbox a while back, much easier and convenient, cheaper too in the long run.

I doubt it too.

In my experience console games are best for games that you want to sit on a couch with friends/family around to play.

If it is just you playing a PC is superior in every way. Waay back in the early days consoles were simpler but even that is not true (mostly) anymore.
