    Have to say really enjoying the Xbox One.Playing through Wolfenstein at the minute..Best Fps Ive played in years on any platform.Who needs multiplayer!!!

    But yeah a month in I thought I might bore of the console like I usually do but nope always manage a few hours a day.The Kinect is amazing and well under rated aswell.I love the fact that you can walk into a room,say "xbox on" start a game,app or whatever without even touching a controller.Have my android box looped through the hdmi in so I can even watch the latest series and movies all through the xbox.

    Don't think the ps4 can do half the stuff the xbox can--seesm to be mainly a gaming machine but I like the media capabilities o the xbox.Ive even gotten rid of a couple of devices under the tv.My blu ray player and my Netflix box as xbox does both.

    Gonna pick up one of those hdds later today as I think I might need it.

    I've been enjoying what I've played of it so far, I'm currently halfway through lvl 37. Sure the framerate does drop a lot especially in the protectors enclave but its free, so far I havent felt the need to spend any actual money on it yet either.

    Been having a problem with my Xbox One and wanted to check if others had...

    When turning off, I tend to just use the controller, hit "Turn off console", time to play again, hit the controller, grand.

    But recently, when I boot the console back up, nothing works. I navigate the menu but when I try to click on something, it refuses to load anything. Have to do a hard reset to get it back working :(

    Is that a known issue? Anyone know how to fix it?

    I've had an issue in the past where my left stick was drifting slightly (i.e. if you left it alone in an fps, the view would gradually move upwards of its own accord) It wasn't enough of an input to switch tiles on the dashboard as such, but it effectively cancelled out any button presses I was using to select apps etc. Does stuff launch when you use voice commands?
    If that doesn't help, it might be just the game itself that you've exited out of. System resume always worked perfectly for me with sunset overdrive, but battle field would always crash when I tried to jump straight back in.

    Voice commands don't work; it registers them on screen but nothing happens other than all the text turning green. And it's not just the game; I can't launch anything on the Xbox after it happens.

    It has started since I began playing Lego Batman a few days back so maybe it's just the game throwing a fit :/ Will try to exit the game fully before turning off the console...

    That actually happens to mine once every two weeks or so. Usually just hard reset and it works fine again.

    YE hard reset if the dash shows all services as up and online should kick her in the pants. When this happens you can also use the web login to confirm live status and get faster information that way.

    If you don't already have the Jackbox collection, I recommend it too.

    For Fibbage XL and Drawful.

    Drawful is the best laugh.

    What's different about Fibbage XL?

    Drawful sounds great yeah, I'm tempted by the party pack just to get it but $24 seems a little steep. Will hold out for a sale.

    Loads more questions.

    Found Fibbage repeating them a lot, probably because we played it so much without any one that called to the house.

    Drawful is the best craic, the things it asks you to draw are near impossible and peoples reactions could have ya in stitches.

    They have a new game coming out in the summer (hopefully) Quiplash.

    Happy Wars is a load of crap just like all the other free games we get, this poster is not amused but I'm sure as the console ages more games will release meaning more decent free titles.

    It isn't a "free game" as such, it's just f2p.

    Whether it's a load of crap or not I don't know.
