Does anyone know when Halo Reach and CoD Blops 1 are going to be available for backwards compat? Everyone is saying December but no one has a date. I was wondering if anyone here knows at all?

Doesn't Reach come as a free download if you buy the Master Chief collection?
 
So I bought the kids an Xbone for Crimbo, Fifa16 edition and got Starwars Battlefront and Black Ops3 with it, Im guessing the Fifa16 is a code to download the game though?

Wife wrapped it up before I had a chance to plug it in, which has left me wondering when I first fire it up, how long its going to take to update etc, im not bothered about Fifa16 as the boys are 7 and 4 and wont be interested in that as much as me ;) same with Black Ops3, however I got them Lego Dimensions and some other Lego games to play.

So really just wondering how much downtime the consoles going to have before they can actually use it.

I'm in the same boat.

I actually hope it takes a shed load of time to update so they actually have to do something else :)

I don't think so but even if it does I'm more interested in CoD Blops 1 to be honest. I loved that game (third favourite CoD game in the series for me). I saw that ODST was available as an addon for MCC but nothing about Reach.

Just really looking forward to playing it again and I have no idea when the update will come that adds the game to the available backwards compatible games. Whenever it happens in December it'll be a nice free Christmas present :).
 
Elite controller in stock in the Microsoft store if you're quick.

And out of stock within 5 mins, still managed to grab one for my brothers Xmas though.

Whatever game you install will probably want a GB of updates plus console updates etc. I find that whenever I'm doing a console update it crawls its way to me at less than 1MB/s.

So, yeah... it'll take a while. I'd recommend getting everything started installing, switch off the auto power off and see how it is getting on come Boxing day.

I updated a new xbox one last Thursday night. I believe it had a 2.6 gig update it took less than 45 mins to download and install, but then the servers were probably not getting hammered by thousands of people with a new console.
 
Anyone had any issues with Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition achievements not unlocking? Been enjoying the game now for 6/7 hours and just realised I haven't seen one achievement pop, so I checked the achievement app and it says 0/1000 but when I check some of the achievements (I.e kill 50 enemies) which I know I've surpassed miles by now, I now think the game has glitched...never came across this before

yeah this happened to me its a bug i think ?

i think i quit the game and signed out of my profile then back in after doing a hard reset then about 15 acheivements all popped up when i started the game lol
 
Yes, some of mine didn't pop until a bit later, does seem to be a weird issue though. I didn't bother signing out though, they call came through eventually.

Cheers will give that a try.

I love a good achievement lol, not sure I want to risk carrying on if ain't going to get the glory lol.
 
My xbox is really getting on my nerves, took over a day before i could play halo 5 at the weekend due to it having to download a 16GB patch. Put it on tonight for a quick blast, yet another 3+GB patch.

Every time i want to play games on the thing it is a complete ball ache. Having to manage storage all the time, huge downloads for everything and the OS still doesn't make finding anything easy!

I thought the 360 over the PS3 had patching brilliant, patches were really quick on the 360 and took an age on the PS3, but this gen, God help me.

If i thought id get any decent money for it, i'd probably get rid of it.
