    Reboots and freezes during console updates are common though, you'd want to rule that out before going through the hassle of returning the console.

    As I've said before the update installed without a problem so that's not what's going wrong with mine.

    imagine going into tesco to buy a loaf of bread and being told you can't as you have to buy butter with it.

    Same principle

    Not quite, tesco (or xtravision) would be well within their right to do that, and you can simply refuse - however, if you've already paid for the bread and the butter was never part of the agreement...that's where things get a bit slippery.

    I'd return it then, there's not much more you can do to be honest.

    How can you report xtra-vision, they can sell it any way they want. Consumer affairs can do nothing.

    People have paid for a product and Xtra vision won't hand it over unless you buy extra goods with it thats not on.

    Have you got the hdmi cable from your 360, try using that.

    Was oldschool. Didn't have a hdmi with my 360 :pac:

    Since I turned it back from 720 to 1080, it actually seems to have stopped :confused:

    someone should tweet Microsoft Ireland with this XtraVision stuff and see what they say

    Does Forza really have a 6 gig day one patch and what does it actually do?

    Also for people with faulty consoles, return them as fast as possible or you could be waiting till next year if Microsoft have not held a few consoles in reserve.
    Speaking with MCV, Harrison said, “Our job on a tactical level is to ensure we get enough supply to retailers and customers as we possibly can to meet demand, and that will be a struggle but we are doing our best.

    “There will be difficulty getting stock through until Christmas but we will do everything we can to accelerate that. And then from a software point-of-view on our services, that are constantly upgrading, we will continue to innovate there. From a games and product point-of-view, we have a very strong line-up for the year ahead. So this is really just one day in the calendar and then tomorrow it is back to work. We have some big games to bring to market in the first quarter and beyond.”

    Has anyone else heard anything from Microsoft Store about when their XB1 will arrive?

    UPS are now saying Monday which is an improvement I guess, still complete bull**** though

    Nothing for me either, mine doesn't even have a delivery date just says In Transit. How do you use the live chat on the MS store website? I can't even find it and don't want to spend an hour on the phone.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,553 ✭✭✭murphyebass


    Hi guys,

    Along with many others I'm sure I wont be getting an xbox one/PS4 for at least another year due to backlog and cost etc.. but would love to see some xbox one p0rn if ye feel like posting pics in game etc that'd be cool.

    cheers!!

    ps hope your all enjoying it. Feeling slightly jealous looking at this thread if I'm honest.

    No point speaking to an indian call centre will do your nut in no end.

    Basically, MS saying its UPS fault and UPS saying its MS fault. One things for sure my expected delivery date is Monday.

    Yeah I know, but I'll give them a ring later if it's not here, just to let them know I'm not happy about it. I kind of expected this to happen after talking to them on Wednesday, it's just annoying that MS could have shipped them on time but they didn't and I'm not going to blame UPS at all for it myself.

    While I haven't got my console yet, I'm not sure how useful that UPS site is.

    I'm in London, and while the website says it's out for delivery, it also gives this:

    Black screen is back blinking. Do reckon it's the TV though; when it happens, the screen resizes a bit for a second. Only happening every 30 minutes or so though.

    Anyone know what's up with game installation?

    Popped in AC4 and it goes from installing to Queued..
    Then it just stops working.

    My disk drive better not be ****ed :mad:

    Have you something else downloading? An app or anything like that?

    Also, have you switched it to the UK region. Try switching it back for game installations

    Took nearly 70 odd mins to install Forza 5.

    I could play it after 10 minutes though.

    I used to have the same problem on my Philips LCD Tv, is your TV set to Auto-Adjust ?

    If it is try set it to unzoomed or unscaled and see if that makes a difference


  • Registered Users Posts: 213 ✭✭trudub83


    Is there much of an install time?

    Took nearly 2 hrs to install FIFA on a 14mbps download speed. Could play Barca -v- Real after 20 mins or so though.

    DR3 took maybe 40 mins, a little less but could play the full game after 15 mins

    Happy enough with that


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭Royal Irish


    Anyone know how long BF4 takes to install? Currently at 33% and I might have to pause the install and plug the Xbox out and move it to another room.

    Some people on adverts really take the biscuit trying to profiteer.
