I was reading the review and got to Nazi Laser Rifles.
I want something 90-00s era so I can use some decent kit but not futuristic. Maybe I'm trying to be a little to specific lol

martynzs · Mar 13, 2015

Far Cry 4 could be a good shout, as far as I know there isnt anything too futuristic weapon wise - probably the benchmark for open world shooters.
That said, Wolfenstein is amazing, and can be had for about £12 now...

Daz. · Mar 13, 2015

The fact that using nazi lazers against them doesn't really feel wrong in an old castle proves how good it is!

Can't wait for the prequel expansion/standalone

Where is the best place to see lists of new games due out?
I've got
AC Unity (haven't played since I got Forza Horizon)
AC Black Flag (Haven't even installed)
Forza Horizon (I've been hammering but getting a little bored)

I suppose Fifa might be an option. Not really interested in futuristic FPS either. I think the last FPS I really really got into was the original Ghost Recon. So anything like that?

Nah on a serious note I'm looking forward to Rise of the Tomb Raider, EA SPORTS PGA Tour, Halo 5, Just Cause 3 & Mirror's Edge (assuming it's a new game and not a remaster)

Is the Kinect worth buying? and would it control apps like Netflix?

Rhino172 · May 14, 2015

yes and yes

although most on here will tell you no.

SharkyUK · May 14, 2015

I really like the Kinect and wish Microsoft had insisted that it ship with the console as a complete system. I find myself using it without thinking now.

Marc. · May 14, 2015

I love my Kinect. I only use it for voice commands though.

dajones · May 14, 2015

The only use of my Kinect is to see if the Xbox is on. The Xbox is in a drawer.

I bought my first Xbox One. YAY.
At last, only 2.5 years at living at my house with 1mbit broadband, i now have FTTC.
So went to game and bought a new xbox.
Xbox, Controller, Witcher, Omni, Forza 5 & Forza Top Gear Pack - £ 299.

Purchased the Master Chief Collection online - £19.99
Xbox Live CDKeys - £19.99

Whoop.

Although I Love forza, why take 1.5 days download!!

JP83 · Jun 1, 2015

Master chief collection, I've been massive disappointed with. I'm a big halo fan, but it is still, full of bugs.
It's worth playing it, but you may get hacked off with the online segment of it.

Microsoft E3 conference begins at 5:30pm Today! Can not wait!

Are you ready?

Marc. · Jul 26, 2015

Xbox Live has been a shower of shite all weekend. They really need to sort themselves out!

Snakey · Jul 26, 2015

Yep, core services apparently down. Pain in the ass.

Munson · Jul 26, 2015

Loving mine. Use it more now than my PS4. Possibly because I'm addicted to Halo.

Anyone of here able to hook a bother up with an Xbox preview programme invite please?

Adamm. · Jul 28, 2015

I'm on that preview program and its shite, every other time I turn my xbox on it needs an update.

-Jamie- · Jul 28, 2015

Cheers mate, Its jammie654!

Adamm. · Jul 28, 2015

Done mate not sure if you get the invite straight away, you should get a message from xbox live with a link to download it.

Microsoft confirmed its working on streaming PC games to Xbox One! Great news if you ask me! You can already stream Xbox One to PC with Windows 10, now this will make it even more epic!
http://www.theverge.com/2015/7/29/9061467/microsoft-windows-10-pc-game-streaming-to-xbox-one

Xbox One to PC allows me to stream Xbox One to a Windows 10 laptop anywhere in the house - connect the laptop via HDMI to any TV and Bam, Xbox One streaming on it without any lag! Hopefully they get PC to Xbox One done soon to allow you to play PC games on whatever TV your Xbox One is connected to! Good stuff IMO!

Adamm. · Jul 30, 2015

Also with the new windows 10 I believe you will be able to play online cross platform.

So for example with project cars Xbox players can race against people using PC.

Yes.

Tried streaming this morning (on "high" setting) and was suitably impressed for a 2 year old laptop (XPS 15, i7 @ 2.2, 4 gb ram)

Leave it on 'standby'? I rarely have updates (maybe once a month) and I'm on the preview too.

I don't notice updates either - leave it on "instant on" mode and it will download and install in the background. Woop

With game like Forza and Project cars it makes the games buggy if you don't shut it off properly after playing.

How do you get on this "Preview" program?

Exit the game, then while the game is in the main tile press the "menu" button on your controller - then exit the game. This completely closes the game and should alleviate your problems.

You can be invited in to it by someone who is already in the program. It's the only way.

Gareth · Jul 31, 2015

I tried streaming yesterday, initially it seemed to work then all of a sudden lost audio altogether, no matter what I tried I couldn't get audio back.
