A few annoyances at the moment.

The app was setup, but thinks there isn’t an Xbox. The game pass app works fine. I’m turning on my console, signing in but nothing happens.

The external SSD disappears when I tell it to format it.
 
Had COD MW for nearly a year, haven't played it, only really got it as i got £15 cashback from Game.

So i decide, lets give it a go. 58gb update :eek:

Will give Radiant Silvergun a spin instead :D

It took my app about 5 minutes before it picked up the console to my account

One problem down, my ssd has formatted. That’ll be useful space I think.

It’s annoying because it seemed to setup fine at the start and was even sending me update notifications. Now it won’t seem to recognise the Xbox is there. Weirdly the game pass app does.

Edit: it works! Signed out and back in. Classic.
 
Yeah, slow slow loading times..servers will be getting battered!

quick question, my series x is in my man cave at the other side of the house, will an Ethernet cable trailing through the house for game downloads until there done, really help speed up the download compared to wi-if?
 
Phew. I got it.

game pass active now, the library seems tiny on it though and just read they keep cycling games on it, so its a bit hyped up better then what it actually is i think.

The list here is way bigger than what I see.

That list is waaaaay out of date. There's loads of stuff on there with leaving dates in the past. And others (like the Borderlands games) which left months ago.

There are still hundreds of games on GP though. If you're seeing a small list then you may not be in the right place.

Well, setup was a cinch. Up and running in minutes using phone.

Finished off gears 4, then had a look at legion, gears 5,.

Gears 4 was running smoother and looking better (coming from one s)

Legion is graphically very impressive. Not spent great amount of time with it though.

Gears 5 - wow. Looks amazing, so smooth. Handles so nicely. Looking forward to getting through this over next few days.

Despite trying to download most games beforehand, most have required massive downloads.

Still need to try fh4, fallen order, fortnite, cod war zone, and have cod cw for Friday already. Some others am sure have forgotten

But damn, on my new oled looks soooooo nice.

Did anyone who bought from ShopTo not have their console turn up today?

My shopto order has been messed up by DHL. Absolutely no idea when I'm getting the console. Its changed from today to Friday to Thursday in the last few hours lol. Customer service in non existing. Tried contacting them on twitter and Facebook, no replay. And with covid doing the rounds no one will pick up a phone lol.
