I'd say go for it, it's good value and it certainly helps. Just understand it won't do much when the guy your up against in COD has host advantage or a 200ms jump on you in Halo.

local argos had 1 in stock so ive reserved it but not sure whether to pull the trigger or not.

I jsut grabbed one from my local Argos. It is a silly amount of money but I wanted it and I worked overtime this week so I deserve it.

Definitely the best value for money option compared to Scuf etc. Overall I'm happy with mine though I wouldn't agree the build quality is the best. Mine came with stick drift straight out the box, and the left thumbstick has started to make a clicking sound/feeling when I move it certain directions, which can be a little off putting in the heat of the moment .

I think you have been unlucky then, I cannot fault the build quality but there again I dont have the issues you have.

how do i use this gamesharing malarky? my little brother has an xbox so might aswell set it up so we can share stuff.

are my steps correct?

1. give him my deets
2. he signs in
3. sets to home console??? (what then happens on my console?)
4. logs out of my account
5. logs into his account
6. voila?

Mull3t · 22 Jan 2016 at 15:38

Correct, everything you have downloaded or will download will auto appear in his my games and apps as 'available to install'.

CliffyG · 22 Jan 2016 at 19:20

You need to set your xbox as his home I think too.

Just tried to play Tomb Raider and it needs a 1GB update which it is doing at %1 every 10 mins on my 200mb line. Xbox live is complete crap for a paid for service.....

Edit - Given up.... Microsoft really need to do something about the Xbox live download speeds especially at weekends.

9/10 I go to play on the One and end up on the PS4 as the one takes hours to update anything.

cu3ed · 23 Jan 2016 at 15:07

Never had to wait hours for a game update personally.

Are you router settings etc all open?

Never had that on my 100mb line. It's your connection OK?

Kenai · 23 Jan 2016 at 15:15

Never found it slow in terms of download speeds really

MOOGLEYS · 23 Jan 2016 at 15:46

Everything is open wired connection. It's always been slow for me with game updates for some reason. Downloading complete games is not to bad.

I have tried just about everything but nothing speeds it up by much. I usually just do them during the week as it is a lot faster.

It's strange as nothing else slows down at the weekend.

Plainsong · 23 Jan 2016 at 16:11

Something not right there. I'm on 100MB and it's pretty fast.

Because it absolutely certainly has to be Xbox Live's fault.

Anyone else reporting similar problems with your ISP?

Everything else is ok and it only effects updates. Its either my Xbox or Live...

Dredd · 23 Jan 2016 at 22:12

for me it's the other way around, ps4 very very slow with downloads and xbox is super fast (i'n using wireless)

i downloaded the same game on both, ps4 was around 4x slower

What do the xbox's network stats say?

wanderer89 · 24 Jan 2016 at 00:17

I don't know what to do about my Xbox, I don't want to sell it but I can't see me playing it, I think I've just been playing on a mouse and keyboard for too long. Are there any devices available that make it possible to use a mouse and keyboard to play games at all?

That's why I asked if its possible to use keyboard and mouse on it

A quick google search shows Phil Spencer saying that they are trying to make it possible and will be coming but that was last year and then you have all these third party things that say they work but I'm a tad hesitant where they're concerned.
