    Playing Halo last night, xbox one kept freezing, then dash started becoming responsive. Went downhill from there. Now when xbox one is switched on the green xbox logo screen comes on the sound plays, then straight after the screen goes black. Tried power cycling checked connection etc no avail anyone got any ideas??

    Checked the HDMI cable etc I presume? If I am honest, it does not sound good, you have it long? Should be still under warranty?

    When you say power cycle did you just reboot it or did you hold the power button down for 10-15 seconds?

    If in doubt, plug it out.

    Bought the halo bundle for 350 a month ago and got the witcher free as well. Had the witcher game on a separate receipt because I hadnt realized it was free until I was at the till. So halo is a digital code and they dont know about the witcher. they put the 350 on a giftcard. So i grand a new xbox for 330 with f1 2015 for free which leaves 20 quid on the gift card. Only downside side is f1 its only worth 33 in cex.

    Ah very nice mate, you going to trade F1? I might be interested if you are just going to trade it.
