No external psu either and they fit upright in an ikea tv unit. You should buy two.

Not all of them, the dev kits are sexy off-white with a pattern and there are tons of coloured bundles.

Cheapest 4kplayer around. Uses less power. Would save you money. Controllers also feel better!

I've never really had a problem with the style or size of the original Xbox One, but seeing them side by side, it really does look like a twenty year old piece of technology.

Really? All I've seen so far is the white and GOW red bundle.

I think the original xbox one was overengineered, just look at the capacitive on button with its built in speaker They were also terrified about heating issues hence the massive size and external PSU.

Agree with it being down to how folks play to a point, I've over 1000 hours in Borderlands 2 on 360 and couldn't count the times I've sprinted while back peddling or crouched in other games , which means I'm heavy on the left stick.

I have to play 870 more hours to catch up to you

Ha that game was like crack to me , few if any others had their hooks in me that deep. I normally finish a game and move on.

While the One S looks great in white, I will wait until a black one is released.

I concur. While i do love my white tech, it would throw off the whole balance :pac:

Will the shops have bundles for the S when its released on Tuesday?

Smyths and Gamestop don't seem to be offering any games with it.

I spoke to my local GameStop this morning and they said there would be a game with it but no details yet.
But that could mean for €450 you get the console and a newish game with a tenner off.

Asked in Smyths the other day said they should be up on the website today or tomorrow if i remember correctly.

Is there any tablet/laptop better than the linx vision8 to do the Xbox not on tv thing for around the same sort of price

Anyone else get an email from the Xbox rewards thing??? Seems they've got some new badges or some rubbish and have just given me 5000 credits (about €4) for being in the top tier 100k+ gamerscore , I knew those achievements would be good for something one day :pac:

That's right. You're one of the elite few who made our brand-new HIGHEST-EVER tier! To say congratulations, we'd like to offer you a special token of our appreciation for your skills… some money to spend in the Xbox Store. You should see 5,000 Rewards Credits in your August Rewards deposit.

I've only got 20000 gamerscore, had the account for 5 years and share it with my brother (was never bothered to make separate accounts and he never uses it). Never understood how people could get so much

Anyone hear of any bundles for tomorrow's launch? still nothing on the gamestop website.

Turned on the One this morning to this screen.

Does this mean an update failed last night?

Pretty much. It's usually when the update gets interrupted, xbox loses power etc.

You can give the offline update tool a try: https://support.xbox.com/en-IE/xbox-one/console/system-updates-solution

Ended up having to factory reset. There really is something to be said for having your games on an external hard drive.
