That's it .. got it direct from MS. The attachment in my previous post is the only option on the support page. I'll ring them tomorrow.

Called the support - they are extending my warranty to allow for a free unit to be shipped. Sending me a return label for the faulty unit and sending me a new one out. Happy with the service.

Anybody made their minds up 100% on the X?

I'm all in, day one.

I'm in, but will probably wait until Christmas.

On a side note, the amount of tries it took me to spell Christmas right is frankly embarrassing. And yes, it happened again when I typed it the second time too.

I have the money set aside already. I already have the TV. Just waiting for the disappointment of E3 to fade before I make my mind up. I fully expected to wake up to Sony wiping the floor with E3 swaying my decision in their favour. But with it being nothing special and considering it's pretty much used it's potential (I'm not convinced on PSVR at all), I'm now thinking it's simply down to buy the better built, more powerful console that will get the most out of my 55" 4K TV. But I wouldn't say 100% just yet

What TV if I may ask? as the kids are getting the current one

(I feel like TV sales people are worse than car sales people tbh )

Yep, have amazon credit ready to preorder once it goes live

Have a PS4 and Switch for exclusives only, XBX for multiplats and MS games.

Picking a TV is the hard decision.

I can't but recommend, believe it or not, the Philips 6401 series. I have an LG 650v myself, and it's great, but too much in the wallet department. If I didn't I'd be going for the Philips if I imagine

Honourable mention for Hisense too.

Was always going to be 100% getting it. Just have to see closer to the time if it's a midnight job or a lunchtime job

Ah about bloody time, time to dust off Elite Dangerous and start spamming the Xbox Gaming thread to let people know how great it is again.

Ark is very demanding game on PC so it's impressive to see the power of the X.

On subject to of travel, I know Xbox one games are region free, but if I buy in the US, will any additional dlc be available to buy online when I get home? Thanks.
