Anyone else keep having the problem of no games or apps loading? Then you turn off the console and the light on the Xbox flashes forever never shutting down properly so you have to hold the button in for a hard reset. Then it's fine for a while. I'm in the preview thing.

Really not feeling the x1 at the moment. Already had a ps4 but got a x1 due to many friends having them. I've got sunset overdrive which is great and lords of fallen but its not clicking. Install times are really getting on my wick. Do I stick with it?

Sunset overdrive was ready to play in less than 5 minutes.

There is a preview dashboard app. Not sure if this only shows the details of the actual update rather than any additional patches relating to the main update.

I am sure there will be something on xbox.com saying what the various updates are for

Seems to be a few stability updates, no new features or anything.

Well, im pretty happy im back to the box. Not only does it look sweet in white, but its pretty damn quiet! Titanfall only had about a 4gb update so i managed to download that fine and had some games - even came top in a few! Got a 7gb update for wolfenstein and titanfall season pass to download through the night, possibly the evolve game too. So all in all loving it.

White version looks sweet

If you got the second update, check out the store now, really excellant layout now.

So I'm at 93% capacity on my hard drive, can anyone recommend a decent external? How does an external work? Does it need to be plugged in all the time? Run off USB power?

ic1male · 1 Nov 2014 at 01:20

You can use either but by using a drive powered by mains, you'll get more space and a faster drive for the same price as a usb powered one.

cu3ed · 1 Nov 2014 at 01:23

ALso people are noting an External Powered USB 3 Drive is actually running/ Loading games faster than the internal drive.

I had absolutely no interest in Sunset Overdrive, but having watched some videos and streams it does actually look pretty good. I just can't afford it this month unfortunately

Just got my Xbox from argos today as a replacement for my faulty one and the power brick has a noticeable buzzing noise. Anyone else noticed this? I swear my previous one wasn't like this.

Got the sunset overdrive special edition box as i really fancied the white console, it does look the nuts too, im trying not to play anything until my oled TV arrives on Wednesday to show it in all its glory.

What id like is to be able to boot straight into netflix or amazon, i hope thats something they update in future, would finish the media side off for me.

Anyone tried the free game this month Volgarr the viking?

So so hard!!

Mine does. It's the fan inside the brick. I've not been too concerned about it.

Mine didn't sound too good so I exchanged it and the new one is whisper quiet. Must have been faulty

Just bought one this evening. No games though (waiting for COD) and I'm away for a week tomorrow

)
