Just got an XBone, had a PS3 last generation

Games I like to play:
Sim games: dwarf fortress, SimCity etc
Loot and Shoots: I know I should get destiny but what else
Games that have couch co-op or local multiplayer
Turn-based RPGs
Sports games that aren't overly complicated

What games should I try to get?

Here is where you start to limit yourself.

I'm not saying these are the only games that I play, just the ones I would choose if I had a preference. Is Local multiplayer really that dead nowadays?

I think so. BF4 is probably a good value if you like FPS games. Not sure about CoD Ghosts. Madden for football and probably NBA 2K for basketball if you like hoops.

Too bad you didn't get a PS4 or you could get The Last of Us Remastered. Also, GTA 5 is going to come out for the One in November, I think.

There's always goofball games like Destiny and Titanfall. Good luck with that.

See that's the post I was looking for! I need to know what's down the pipe since I don't following games news at all. Unless it's related to fighting games.

Destiny appears to be meh
Kingdom Hearts? He has a PS3
Final Fantasy has sucked for a while

What about CIV?
Sims?
Total War?


Exclusives go both ways.

Destiny has been incredibly fun for me and my friends. Watch_Dogs is another good open world game and GTA V is coming out soon for the Xbox One. I'll see if I can find a list of upcoming games for you.

New one looks legit.

Both are on consoles. (Yes I know they suck compared to the PC versions)

First off I would checkout EA Access. For $30 a year you can play Battlefield 4, Fifa 14, Madden 25, the last Need for Speed game, and Peggle 2 for free. You also get free early access to games (I'm currently playing FIFA 15 that comes out tomorrow) and a 5 or 10% discount on all EA titles.

Child of Light could fit your desire for a turn-based RPG

The lack of some good couch co-op games this generation on both consoles is maddening. I know FIFA still supports it. Since you missed out on the Halo games last generation I'd checkout the Master chief collection which comes out in November. Co-op Halo has always been a blast. Powerstar Golf is a fun arcade game that can be played locally.

A couple of games already out to take a look at:

Destiny
Tomb Raider
Titanfall
Wolfenstein: Great game, but I'd suggest maybe renting it
NBA2K14: Uncomplicated sports game
Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
Forza 5

Games coming out:

Sunset Overdrive
Halo MCC
FIFA 15
Forza Horizon 2
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor
NBA2K15
Tell-Tale's The Walking Dead and Wolf Among Us
Assassin's Creed: Unity
Dragon Age: Inquistion
GTA V
Far Cry 4
