Anyone get a console from An post In cork/east cork?

I got my series x just there at 4:30pm the thing heavy as hell.The controller has a nice feel to it so happy just setting it up at the moment.

I know it was in the thread earlier but what charger do people recommend for the controller?

Rechargeable AA batteries (IKEA Ladda, Eneloops etc) and a battery charger. One pair in the cradle and one pair in the controller, always ready to swap when empty.

Probes

Anyone waiting on Harvey Norman, I just got an email notification from them that mines dispatched. So looks like it is happening for us after all!

To be honest, I'd rather not take the risk of any warranty issue, especially not with a home wired plug. As it happens I have a spare Xbox plug that will fit, but just wanted to check there was nothing wierd and wonderful about them. Thanks anyway

I really don't think there would be any warranty issue with a home plug.

Also, if you returned the console you'd only return the console itself for repair not a cable.

Anyhow, hope you get sorted.

Xbox live sign in servers down 👎 just when all the Americans received theirs and started logging in I guess.

Getting a consistent 150mps download speed over WiFi, crazy. The controller was nice but I pretty quickly jumped back to my elite controller.

Got my Series X & S today.

Anyone find the disc drive incredibly noisy? It makes a kind of grinding sound almost when installing games from a disc..

Installed Dirt 5 from disc and it was a lil bit noisy nothing too loud though, the console when the disc is not spinning is very quite

Gamestop Ireland are a ****ing disgrace

Anyone else from the Cologne group still waiting for theirs to come? Mine's still in Dublin and scheduled by the end of tomorrow.

Gamestop Ireland have their head office number that you cant call no surprise there. seriously considering telling my bank to claw my money back now

antifyre

I am now in Finglas! (well, arrived at Facility @ 1pm updated 1 hour ago) so I'd say it may be tomorrow at this stage

I hope pretty much everyone who was after their shiny new machine got theirs today, have to say I'm loving it.

Over the course of the day I managed to sort out 3 fellow boardsies with unneeded pre-orders or Argos codes, and will continue to be on the lookout.

Is it coming with An Post?

I was sending my Series X to a friend yesterday as he couldn't get a pre-order and I wanted to sort him out and the lady in the post office said they are swamped at the moment and to expect a delay in delivery to my friend.

Destiny 2 firing up their largest update ever was probably best held on another day than the launch of the new consoles. :rolleyes:
