I'd love an invite too please: Phee2

Been toying with the idea of joining the preview. Windows 10 streaming and backwards compatibility definitely make it worth it. Now I can game while the missus is watching Eastenders/Hollyoaks/Emmerdale/Corrie/Holtby

Done

Rise of the tomb raider looked awsome, even my dad was impressed and it takes a lot to impress the old git lol

I'm not going to argue any different. I was absolutely awful. Never used to be - I loved Gears back when it came out. I just found it really frustrating after maybe five years away from the franchise - the controls felt beyond clunky.

Everyone has an opinion but this was one of the most loved MP games and it'll be popular again. So I'd say you're probably doing it wrong

I forgot how **** Gears multiplayer was. Fiddly, clumsy, frustrating. Can't help but feel it's an irrelevant franchise unless they can rethink the concept a bit. Had a go at the beta, played three matches. Hated it.

I dont remember Gears being all that fiddley. Not played since Gears 2 though so its been a very long time. Lots of games went on to copy the system they had.

I think the issue is that they've remade the first game which WAS quite clunky and annoying at times; I've noticed that I get stuck on cover all the time. By 3 the game ran much smoother.
It does take a bit of getting used to.

Gutted that I haven't been grabbing the Xbox 360 GWG games now. Didn't think I'd have any use for them

Yeah, me too. :mad:

And the fact I've changed gamertags about ten times doesn't help as my digital purchases are strung all amongst them so I'm going to have to try and remember all the login details if I want those games adding to my library.

Ginger-Menace · 20 Jun 2015 at 10:04

Would it not just go by your live login?
Surely if you change your Gamertag you get to keep your digital games :confused:

No, not changing the gamertag name, changing the actual gamertag. I've got about six.

Why? I dunno. I fancied a blank slate every 18 months or so.

Hi all anyone having problems with game streaming? Mine says it's connected but the screen sort of goes dark and I don't see any xbox one dash?

TriedandTested · 20 Jun 2015 at 13:13

Just downloading Mass Effect on the XB1, can't wait to replay it. Then ME2 when that appears..and then ME3 as I never completed it.

ic1male · 20 Jun 2015 at 13:19

Don't hold your breath. ME2 and 3 will need to be recoded by Bioware to remove the disc swapping code.

TriedandTested · 20 Jun 2015 at 13:22

I am a patient man!

Woden · 20 Jun 2015 at 13:23

Its EA. ME3 no disc-swap will be a paid DLC

ic1male · 20 Jun 2015 at 13:34

Between you and me, I fully expect an announcement at Gamescom that the trilogy will be remastered.

Ive read reports that the emulation on xbox one actually improves texture pop in and the load times :cool:

Though at the moment performance is quite poor, though I expect that to improve greatly.

Battery! · 20 Jun 2015 at 15:32

Is this true about the preview builds, they only come out in cycles?

Anyone who's joined the preview recently will not get the preview until the next build?

My Xbox one has been sat at pending for days.
