I had a code, but not for any money. It was the Blair Witch movie

I'm so appreciative of GWG. I'm still on my old ass 360 with a dead cd-rom so I can only play digital games. But I'm also stacking the free XB1 games as well.

Whats's holding you back from a new XBox One?

There's a bunch on sale today for Black Friday

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/stor...com_store_bf20

There are some really affordable bundles here with a free game. It's probably the most affordable the console has ever been.

Tried out xCloud for a bit last night. It worked quite well, actually. More responsive than I was expecting, and the graphics look good on my phone. My main gripe is the lack of games that I actually want to play. Hopefully you can have your entire digital library in xCloud by the time it really launches.

Xbox Console Streaming was a bust for me. It wouldn't work.

so if i install a game from Game Pass and then uninstall, why does it not go into my uninstalled games list? just because it is not owned so it goes back to GP to reinstall?

Yes, that seems reasonable.

I have finally gotten around to getting EA Access. It says on the website you are supposed to get 10% off ultimate team items, but I am not showing a discounted price anywhere. Is there something else i'm supposed to do? Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

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

why can't i buy/install XBOX One bc games that were originally 360 on the MS site? it only gives me option to download to 360 and when i do that it says my queue is full. this game i am talking about is Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Mirrors of Fate that ws free with Gold. I can do it by turning on XBOX One and then going to store, but why wouldn't i be able to dl from website itself?

It's probably some kind of legacy code. You'll also notice that when you go to "buy" one of the 360 games, even if it's free, it's a completely different checkout process.

yeah, but most of these games are on website and can remotely install. This and 1 other, I couldn’t do online...

I didn't think you could install any 360 games on a One from the website. At least, all of them go to my 360 queue, which is full because my 360 isn't even hooked up.

right. Me too. But some of these Gold at least used to I was able to find online. Game Pass can always remotely, even though they were 360 only. Only few couldn’t, I think....

This. I don't know how it works if you never had a 360, but when I had both, the 360 games always went to my 360, and now that I don't have one, my queue is full.

Looking into this, I think everyone gets this "360 queue," even if you never had a 360. All 360 games purchased on the site go there. Microsoft removed the way to manage it from their site, so the only way to do it is via an actual 360.
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...0-2f474b71a24b

So your 360 purchases will never automatically download onto an XB1 if purchased from the site, and eventually your queue will get full. I've just been ignoring the "queue full" error message whenever I see it.
