The XBox One Thread

Got a issue with mine, switched it one this morning and the screen is being weird. It's go lines appear every time you move or scroll even on the home screen. I've got a video.



Tried resetting it, hard reset, tried pretty much everything to no avail :(

Try a different HDMI or Input and see what happens.
 
I did switch HDMI ports but still the same, i'am going to try another cable after work and see what happens, when i was playing around with the settings i changed it to something called DVI i think it was called that, went to 480p which played fine apart from the cruddy graphics and no sound. lol.
 
I was going to buy an iPhone 6S but decided to keep my 5S and use the potential funds (and save myself £250 on the process) to buy an Xbox One following peer pressure from my mates. Hardly play my 360 nowadays apart from FIFA and GTA, but after playing on my mate's one on Saturday and everyone else having them I've took the plunge. I've ordered a console and FIFA 16 bundle from Amazon for £297. Xbox comes on Wednesday and I can then download FIFA next week.

A couple of questions:

1) I assume that Netflix/iPlayer etc are all downloadble apps? Do they work without Gold membership?
2) How strong is the console? Bascially I have got my TV (23" so not too heavy) on top of my Sky box (one of the new HD but not Sky+ boxes, so again not heavy) on top of my 360 at the moment, mainly due to space issues but also to give the TV some extra height. Will this same setup be okay for the Xbox One? Or would it be better to have it to the side?
 
I'd be worried about heat soak having a sky box on top of it, or any equipment stacked to be honest. I'd recommend buying a small cabinet from ikea for £20 and putting equipment on a shelf in that, also giving you some height. Thinks it's the besta range?

The Xbox one fan is situated at the top of the console - I would not recommend blocking it at all lol!

A guy in front of me got an xbox one for £200!!!! I would have bought one if there were any left!

I might have to do that actually! Good bargain plus I have the 360 and lots of games although its a bit battered now.
 
If only that deal worked with the Halo 5 edition console lol! Soooo damn temped to buy it! Have it on pre-order along with the Halo 5 collectors edition! I just dont need 2 Xbox Ones! lol
 
Did that deal today, traded in my 360 slim 250gb with 13 games and I paid £138 for my xbox one!

Also @DeeKay86 don't suppose you could invite me to the preview program?
 
Tbf even when you put a disk in it still has to install which takes a while and then any possible updates. You need decent internet for new consoles imo.

My Kinect breaks quite often. It's a launch console and I'd heard that there were some known issues with them. I don't care that much really, waving to sign in and open the party snap screen is easy enough without the help of Kinect...!
 
Yeah mines a launch console as well its doing my head in... I use my Kinect for everything, changing channel, voice control everything ....

I also have a launch Xbox One with Kinect, and I use Kinect a lot.

When you say it switches off, are you referring to the 3 red lights going off? If that is the case, then that is normal.
When Microsoft decided that the kinect will not be packaged with ALL Xbox One consoles, they gave developers access to hardware reserved for Kinect. So, in some titles which do not use Kinect and require that extra 'power', some kinect features are switched off when you launch the game (resulting in the 3 red lights going off). However, the kinect should ALWAYS recognise voice commands even when the 3 lights are off.

I hope that makes sense.
If Microsoft wants £100 to fix it, tell them to piss off. You can buy a 'used' kinect from Cex and Game for far less! I have often seen the Kinect in Cex (computer exchange) for as little as £30.
 
Collected my Halo 5 Guardians Collectors Edition today! Its pretty damn cool!
