Hi all

It's been a long while since I've had a console. My last was a 360. I'm now, however, looking at purchasing an Xbox One S for me to play games on with my son. I've found this, and it looks like a good deal, but wanted to ask here first to see if anyone thinks it'll likely be found cheaper elsewhere if any Easter sales come up.

Anyway, this is the deal:

https://www.game.co.uk/en/xbox-one-...lo-5-wireless-controller-white-now-tv-2342485

By the look of that deal, you seem to get two controllers, along with Minecraft (which my boy will love!), Halo, and a NowTV 2 month pass. Am I correct about the two controllers? If so, that seems a pretty decent deal to me. My only concern is the 500GB vs the 1TB. How much of a difference does this actually make? I have fibre broadband so downloading stuff again isn't an issue if it gets deleted to free up space for other stuff.

I'll be near Game at lunch time so I could pick one up today if so!

Cheers all :)

I recall someone was doing that deal for £20 cheaper recently. If you have a gold account then you really need as much space as you can get but that said you can just plug in an external drive in the future..

I would get a PS4 TBH... :D

I would go for a bigger Harddrive as disc games install on the hard drive, the operating system also takes up something 230-240 GB. Or you could purchase an external hard rive.

I had thought about that, but if that's the only reason, it doesn't bother me too much. I have a load of XBox 360 games and I like the idea that I can play some of these on the newer console. Thanks for the input though :)
Ive spent so much time with old 360 games recently (MS usually release 2-3 a week), It really is a great feature on X1

Is that on disc or is that by a download? I'm so out of touch with the MS stuff now that I don't know what's available. I've just looked at Game Pass and that sounds amazing for £8 per month!

both, If you own games on disc and they are on the BC list, then you can play them. Likewise with any digital purchases you've made in the past.

Gamepass is also pretty good if you can get a good deal (I managed to grab 2 years worth for £3 a month)
