It's still $29.99. You can buy a code from Microsoft Store here.

re: Xbox One: S $249 Now / X $499 November 7 2017

I hate to ask here but this is about Xbox Live Chat issues but with the 360. My daughter and her family play this and once-in-awhile we hook up to play Plants vs Zombies. However we're having problems with the Party Chat mainly they staying connected.

If they invite me to the party I get a 'unable to connect. there might be network problems". But when I invite them they can join but they get disconnected within about one minute. They go into the Settings>System Settings>Network and run the tests and it all comes back good. They can play without any issue at all; it's only with Party Chat they get booted not from Xbox Live.

They have Xfinity and wasn't sure if there is something they need to go into the router and do or what. I've got AT&T Uverse and have no issues. In their Xbox Network settings everything is set to Automatic and showing good. Any tips or suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

Then why not ask in the dedicated 360 thread?


To answer your question... no idea.

It must have just been my defective controller as the plastic moved and creaked when you held it. The replacement seems much better.

According to Larry Hryb (Major Nelson), digital pre-order will be going up today. I checked and it's not up yet, but they're saying soon, so...

so i love these digital downloads and plan on getting more and more instead of disc based games.

my One is nearly filled up now. i have the 500 Gb model. what are my options for when this is filled with digital downloads? is there some way to transfer digital downloads or something to a harddrive? tia.

Or you could just delete them when you're done playing them and if you are interested in playing them again they are always available to be redownloaded. How many games do you play at a time? Max 3-4 I would assume.

i'm so schizo playing games that i never know what i want to play and when. i figured the HD is the best option so i don't have to redownload and stuff. just want to play whatever whenever. this seems really easy and can play off of it...

Yep, just did this. Bought two boxes. Renewed EA Access for $20 ($10 off) and then pre-ordered Rare Replay for $10 ($10 off + $10 Xbox Live Money).

Can you keep your game saves and just delete the installed portion on the X1 like you can on the 360?

Yeah, I just picked up a 1 TB portable external drive, connected it via USB, and followed the instructions to format it. Super easy, and now I have so much space I'm almost tempted to reinstall Ryse.

I will go ahead and install Shadow of Mordor so I can play it between Halo games instead of having to finish them all then delete.

I don't mind it, but then again I also like Honey Smacks

I've nabbed 4 coupons from it, ordering Rare Replay, Gears of War Ultimate, $25 in XBox money, and thinking what to get with the last one. Might just order NBA 2K16 or Tomb Raider.

re: Xbox One: S $249 Now / X $499 November 7 2017

So question to anyone who uses the YouTube app. Whenever I try to start a video the app gets stuck on the loading screen and won't start the video. The fucking ads work but the actual video just won't start and its very annoying. I've tried uninstalling a couple of times but it doesn't seem to help. I tried it on my Xbox 360 and it works right away. Am I the only one with this issue?
