    Called in to a gamestop there and it seems the 50% bonus trade in against the X is back on!?? The last time i was in there 2 weeks ago it was over. Methinks i'll take the €185 for my 500GB S they are offering. Just need to find the original hdmi cable...

    Will any HDMI not do?

    Seriously folks, no need to go around attacking posts for spelling mistakes or anything like that, there's better things to do.

    A bit harsh with your yellow card there, no? I was only having a bit of banter (and if we don't have banter we'll turn into Neogaf) I apologised to the poster who I didn't realise has dyslexia, but you decided to delete my apology and my explanation for some reason.

    I have restored your apology to the thread (it was me that deleted it not CatInABox). If you have a problem with the card keep it to PM though please. Lets keep the discussion about the Xbox One X from here on folks.

    Scorpio version back in stock in amazon at £450. So much for limited edition!

    Isn't it a bit green in colour?
    I'm happy with the normal black one.

    I wouldn’t pay the extra £20 it costs over the standard to be honest. Not a fan of the branding on the controller. Be a different case if it was pure white or something unusual but it’s too similar to the standard for me to have any interest.

    Is the 185 without the 50% bonus?

    probably units that had payments declined when it came to shipping or preorders that got cancelled.

    There was no price difference between the X and Scorpio edition.

    Yeah I know originally there wasn’t but on amazon now the standard is £20 cheaper.

    They offered me €80 plus the 50% bonus so €120 in total. Didn't bother, sold it to a friend for €100.

    Does the X have any more USB ports on it over the standard. I'm thinking in terms of the external drive.

    Basically I'm asking if the external can be plugged into the rear of the X and be kept hidden.

    Just doing some planning

    Did the One not have the same, two in the back one at the side? The S definitely had two in the back and one on the side.

    I never even looked.

    Are the back ones USB 3.0?

    4TB is down to £110 on Amazon


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,163 ✭✭✭Quigs Snr


    I traded my original xbox one (1tb)... for 180 against the xbox one. Apparently that included a 50% bonus. I was happy enough with that to be fair. Now to try find a game that looks better on the little 43 inch 4k/hdr LG tv that I have hooked up to it...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,222 ✭✭✭Scruff


    got €260 off it for a 500Gb One S and a 320Gb 360 slim. Happy with that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭trixiebust


    Has anyone noticed a difference with the controllers for the X. My a button & the guide button seem to get stuck.

    Not great for a €500 machine. Seems MS skimp on the controllers.

    The controllers are all the same, contact wherever you got the X from and request a new controller.

    Mine is perfect no problems and it seems they updated the bumper buttons as well compared to my other controllers including the Elite.

    The one that I got did seem a bit stiff on the button presses at first, but it has loosened out over the last 3 weeks!

    Excellent, ordered for half of the price in Ireland. I’m gonna miss those uk sites when Brexit hits.

    After much back and forth in my head, I went and ordered one myself, I'm just finalizing how best to inform the mrs that I want to build something like this
