Thanks for that.

But I actually find it very hard to see a massive difference between the two. I’m not sure what the lads in the video are smoking saying it is “incredible” and “insane”. It’s a very marginal improvement. And they don’t show any of the load times or framerate differences...

Ok I've re-watched it on a 1440p monitor and I can actually see a difference now. However I got an update to the game the other day on my Xbox One S and I'm wondering now if that update also worked for the S and not just the X.

About 25 in q in GS Galway.They got 25 Scorpios and 25 normal versions only for preorder .Heard manager saying stock will be back around 20th.Got Forza 7 but might sell to CeX tomorrow or put on Adverts for 40e

Anyone any issues connecting the One X to wifi? Old Xbox connects straight away but the One X wont connect. Tried 2 different VDSL modems, same issue on both.

Did they ring/text you to tell you your preorder was there?

Word of warning though, I'm not so sure you will get a refund.

You were right although they were incredibly helpful.

Insisted that I take a brand new and sealed console and give it a try for a few days!

I'm going to just sell this though.

So now I've a brand new, sealed one that I don't want

Do you have a 4K TV?

Just got mine in Argos
One left in Tullamore as I left

Mine is in the post sorting office 2 mins away from the house. I'm on my way into work for a late shift. Concentration may be hampered today. Do we still use "FML" for these type of things?

Waiting to buy one at the moment. I just don't think the console is for me. My Xbox One S does enough.

I'm not pushed as I am sure I'll sell it.

They gave you an unopened console in exchange for the 12 hour old one instead of a refund?

They might plan to hook the open one up in store as a display model?

Me too.

I said I didn't want it that my preference was a refund but she said it was her preference to offer me a replacement?? She said give it a few days and if I'm not happy, bring it back.

I'm not even going to open this and I'll just sell it.

Its not a big deal but I just am happy with my Xbox One S.

Give it a few days and take it back unopened for a refund.

Just collected my scorpio in smyths, I actually up and left work to go get it when I read that fellas who hadn't ordered them had got them. Luckily, there was no need for cross words at the counter.


Of course, they also has the SNES mini in stock too, so grabbed one of those as well.

If it doesnt sell, I will probably do this and I would have been happier if i got a refund but with the box open, they didnt have to do anything.

Hopefully someone will want a new, unopened console with receipt and Ill let it go but if not and I have to return it, its going to be a pain. I think its got Forza 7 with it too but I havent checked.

Just make sure you test it out to see that it works well.
You should test all the games, you never know if there is a bug or something

Anyone is South Dublin who has an Xbox One X that they dont need. Let me know.

I managed to find one in stock in Tallaght store, paid for it. They have 1 hour click and collect service, but got an email before the hour passed to say ordered has been cancelled for security reasons and when I went back to the site the console was no longer in stock.

Just picked up my scorpio, didn't bother with the Forza for €25 but they did throw in a free play and charge kit. Now do I open it today to leave it until Saturday when I'm not working, hrrrmmmm

Could have got it and traded into CEX for 45 cash.
