I agree with you, I loved my Kinect and the voice features, it was so damn good! I wish people didn’t react so badly to it all as well. People were just so “against” the Kinect because they were either misinformed or just fanboys of another platform talking sh*t. All in the name of “privacy” lol...
I’m keeping a look out too (for this thread and friends). It’s a shame scalpers got so many, I’ve seen them going for £700+ the last couple of days.
People suck!!
The Halo Master Chief collection Series X|S update is so good! Tried Halo 4 and increased the Field of View using the new slider - WOW what a massive difference! It feels like a totally new game and is so so smoothe!!
Remember, even though the Halo MCC is now “Optimised for Series” consoles...
CyberPunk 2077 - Launches December 10th. The Series X|S consoles (and PS5) will play the game in “backwards compatibility mode” for now. NEXT YEAR “at some point” they will release a free “next-gen” update for Series X|S consoles. I’m kinda annoyed... I think I might just wait for the “next-gen”...
Ah ok so BCPack is exclusive to Xbox. This is all very very interesting!!
Speaking of AMD, their recent launches have been so impressive. Its about time Intel and NVIDIA got some good competition! All hail Lisa Su!
DirectML (I got this off a website so people know what DirectML is and the...
Really very odd dude, I’ve had mine on pretty much non stop since launch day and so far its been acting the way it should and even the air venting out the top is warm at best. Even tech reviewers have praised it for how cool it runs compared to last gen. If yours is that hot then it sounds like...
Ok I read that twice and it makes PERFECT sense!! You have no idea how happy I am to have someone in the know actually explain this properly! Thank you so so much!
Right, so I was correct to be excited for Xbox Velocity Architecture - it honestly sounds game changing - especially once it is...
I try to keep talking about the PS5 off here because fanboys be crazy lol - but I will say - yes, this is very true. They have major issues with SSD corruption which bricks the console. Retailers are now informing customers to NOT put the console in sleep mode. They urgently need a firmware...
Yes, the external drive is slower than internal, however games that are not “optimised for Series X/S” are totally fine on external. The loading is still super fast which is a nice bonus!! Loving it so far :)
Jason.... JASON!! CALM DOWN JASON!!!! lol
Seriously, I know glitches suck - it happens man. Remember, we are on brand new hardware etc and its been like 4 days lol. I’m surprised I haven’t had any crashes yet its been pretty solid. Still, the odd bug can come up, but that is to be expected with...
When you add more than 2 consoles to the game sharing equation, it can become a little confusing.
Your scenario does make sense. Let me elaborate.
The reason why the old console upstairs will not work is because the console downstairs is logged in as you (the owner of the games etc). It works...
Ah yes - I agree. The “and” would help.
I checked how GAME UK manage their listing and its on there as “XBOX” with a banner saying “OPTIMISED FOR SERIES X”. Seems they forgot the Series S. lol
That is correct though as the game is a cross-gen title. We will see this for a while as games are still releasing on both the Xbox One range of consoles and the Xbox Series consoles. The listing basically says “this will work on Xbox One consoles, but is also optimised for Series X/S”. Not the...
Amazing explanation and it does make sense. I knew 4K textures etc would add a lot, my main issue was “why does CoD use so much space compared to other games that seem to be “bigger” games” lol.
Your knowledge is priceless and I really appreciate you taking the time to explain all of this. The...
Ah man Crazy Taxi! The good old says! I loved the Dreamcast version and I have also played the Xbox version lol. Great fun games! Man you wrote a 3D physics engine? Thats pretty insane. I’ve been dabbling with Python a little (and I mean very little), its kinda mind blowing! I bet you had some...
Wow thank you for the response, that was actually super interesting!!
You sound like a seasoned vet in the gaming world! Pretty amazing that you worked on a game for the original Xbox. I loved that console (it changed my life - seriously lol - cringe I know!). Have you made anything I may have...
Wow nice set up!! I have yet to complete the first Ori game, but its on my play list!!
You mentioned that you had devkits etc - you work for Microsoft/Xbox??
Just want to clarify - I have never said the One X is not HDR. The One X supports HDR10 and even Dolby Vision.
The only difference now is that the Series X and S both will have Games in Dolby Vision and Atmos - the only next gen consoles to do so according to Dolby. :)
A 14 DAY FREE Trial came with my Elite Series 2 Controller.
it is for New GamePass Ultimate customers ONLY.
If anyone on here needs it, please send me a private message!!
Ah man, launch day server strain! Happens every time. Bare with it, I know its lame but this was to be expected. Glad to see its speeding up.
Good thing Microsoft owns Azure otherwise I am sure it would have all toppled over! LOL
EDIT: Just started a download on my Series X and its going at...
