Thanks Danny - this looks identical to the accelerator which I've already bought and tried though, is it definitely a different product? Cheers mate

Well the so called 'accelerator' seems to make the DL speed slower (although my ping decreased with it on!) So that idea was no good. Would someone be as kind to post a link to the filtered plate which was mentioned please? That's my next port of call...

It just arrived anyway, so will give it a try and see if it improves things at all. Can't get any worse! Last night was really lagging whilst playing Destiny. Didn't realise that about Openreach, assumed it was a BT sub-brand. I guess not!

We must be psychic. In an interview about the new Civ game I read today, they also admitted a new x com game is in development. Happy days

Oh really - I just bought a BT broadband accelerator (iPlate?) from Amazon for £5 and was told I could easily fit myself. Worth it? The router is brand new so don't think it's the issue, my connection has actually been surprisingly smooth and for some reason speed is up to 1.3 to 1.4 dl speed...

I'm level 24 and still loving it - the main joy is doing a strike mission with friends and just trying to outdo each other, then going back to the tower to check out new loot. The gunplay is great, fluid engine, great mp...but yes can be a bit repetitive going to the same locations. This game...

Yes - I may have to purchase on my gf's tablet as my 360 is now at my parents. I'd happily just buy EW again on the One though. The set piece missions were awesome, as are the standard 'seek and destroy'. The MP has a place too - the concept is there but needs massively simplifying, it's not...

Cheers for the advice. Can you still use a phone from the same socket then, or does this mean it's broadband only?

So currently with our BT broadband we're getting less than 1mb dl speeds - mainly due to the distance from the exchange. Sky recommended trying a new faceplate - but can I just buy one via Amazon or eBay and install one myself, or is it tricky? Also, any other things I could try to boost...

Really? I found them relatively easy? I REALLY want a next gen version of this game. Make it so!

I've really enjoyed it so far. Might not have been the messiah of games as everyone had hoped, but the game is already enjoyable and they are adding to it continually. What would everyone like to see added? My wishes would be the following: 1. Space battles - also allowing you to...

Got some 'OK' reviews - basically saying it's solid but not doing anything new, story is weak/nothing really there, enemies are boring and not fleshed out (surprising given how much Bungie did on this with Halo to make the story interesting). I'm enjoying it so far, hope it doesn't turn into...

So far, I'm loving it - although still not got to where I was up to on the Beta! Playing with other randomers increases fun by 20%, playing in a group with mates it goes up 50% or more. I sense, like Borderlands, it gets truly epic once you level up more and there is more nuance to the...

Turns out all that was needed was a hard restart. Amazing - brand new console and the whole 'turning it off at the plug' fixes it (I had of course tried turning the console off and on before this, in case you asked!)

I just got my One setup, with Destiny. My new broadband is absymally slow, but think it's now installed. It then said it needed to update, but then the update doesn't appear in the queue. When I click on the game tile to start, it makes a noise but nothing happens (apart from like a black border...

I saw it is on Shopto for £319 with their discount for new customers. Even better!

Cool thanks buddy!

Have you got the link mate? I can't see that on there...? Thanks!

£350 bundle for One with Destiny - I'm looking at this offer myself, then when Halo Collection comes out that's me sorted for the next decade.

Right, I take it back, Richer Sounds apologised for the missed appointment and I got my Sony W series 55" from there this Sunday, with the new Sony STRN 1060 amp and Panasonic BR player. The TV itself looks great and have the amp hooked up to my 2 existing floor standing Sony speakers which are...

Not sure if it's the same on One, but on 360 Legends is on sale on the Live Marketplace, think it's £8.99 or something

Well - they were sh1t. Didn't bother showing, didn't bother calling. I called them today to see what happened, no explanation but was told they would call back and rearrange. So far, nothing. Will take my money and shop at JL or Currys - where they actually seem to provide a service.

I've decided to go for the Sony W9 55" - but after going to Richer Sounds decided a Soundbar probably isn't really worth it and I'd be better off spending a little more for an amp and speakers (OK, well a lot more). Richer Sounds offer a free consultation process where they come round your...

Oh - might have been my mistake! I think 55" is the largest I want to go in my lounge, could look a bit too big otherwise. That and the Sony W series are the ones I'll look into, and see how far my budget can stretch to!

3D just doesn't interest me really, but yes accept your point - at least there is currently some 3D content available! Looked into that VT65 - does seem a serious piece of equipment, but only seems to come in that size so might be too large for my lounge I think

The new Halo Master Chief Collection does look good, I must say. If it wasn't for Halo I would have bought a PS4 I think - which is stupid I admit, as essentially paying £400 to play new versions of old games...

Cool, I've done a bit of searching about and found some good deals - going to have a look this weekend at Richer Sounds. Thanks for the advice!

Yes the W955 was the one I was looking at, there doesn't seem to be a 60" version I can find and the 65" is too big (and expensive!) I think given the choice I'd go for the Sony, seeing as plasma screens tend to degrade quicker, plus less energy efficient. And I like Sony stuff, too!

Yes I've done a bit more reading about and think the 4K sets, whilst nice, aren't very good VFM right now and will be paying a premium for technology which isn't really that useful today. What are the best 55-60" sets available right now then? Probably looking to spend about £1,500 or less on a...

Great montage, some sweet kills there. Although you should have finished the video with your character dancing. Obviously.
