South African Xbox One fans, your time is now.
Today, the Xbox One launches in South Africa, a mere eleven months after the 22 November 2013 U.S. launch. Eleven months later. During that time, the Xbox One has seen a price drop, been beaten in sales by Sony’s PlayStation 4, failed in Japan and released a whack of great, to really average games.

In my opinion, Microsoft’s Xbox One is a solid follow-up to the glorious Xbox 360. It has a sturdy controller, brilliant design and one of the most stable online environments yet conceived. But it’s saddled with a bucket-load of fun yet flawed games. The Xbox One needs time to grow alongside the ever-changing needs of an extremely fickle audience. This happens through the development of exceptional, and not so great games.
These Xbox One games are pretty average, but will be well worth a purchase once they hit the bargain bins. Next to each game is its Metacritic score, for those who care about such things.
