It's cool, colour is subjective. I just quite like teal/aqua and I thought it went well with the white

The shell is just from a broken controller I had, I just spray painted it. The white buttons and stuff were from eBay, there's loads of controller parts and stuff you can buy in all sorts of colours.

I did orignally do a two colour fade when I was messing about with the broken controller, but I screwed the finish up a bit so I sanded it down again and opted for a solid colour

oh right.. great job on it then.
it really is a true custom controller then

Hi

If anybody is having streaming problems with the xbox app like stuttering ect then make sure your not running EVGA Precision X16 or similar software on you pc i finally found out this was causing my issues with streaming.

Runs great now

If I plug an external HDD into my Xbone which has video files on it, is there any way I can stream them to a mobile device? I don't think you can do it with Smartglass. Can you do it with the Xbox app? I guess that's only for Windows 10 mobiles and Surface tablets though?

why not buy a decent router and plug the hard drive into that?

If i can manage to stop playing World of Tanks i might give it a try.

Wouldn't bother, the one night map available is terrible, or rather just taking an older map and making night time is a terrible idea.

Just had my first proper go trying the Windows 10 Xbox steaming. I wasn't expecting it to be too good over the internet but I'm so impressed with it, it really works amazingly well.

I'm more than 100 miles away from the Xbox but after logging into my router and changing a couple of settings I loaded the app on my tablet and it gave me a button to turn on the xbox. It turned it on remotely and I spent the evening streaming Halo on my tablet from the Xbox.

Seems to be very little delay in the controls and the picture and sound quality was pretty good with no drop outs or problems. Really impressive!

That is very cool

Can you run a notebook/PC through the HDMI in port on the Xbox One?

Yes you can pass any hdmi device through it

sorry if already mentioned, but the new xbox one controller with the 3.5mm socket on it, does that only come with the 1TB console or any new xbox one console?

pioneer2000 · 24 Aug 2015 at 23:28

Wow, the windows 10 streaming is absolutely fantastic. Genuinely perfect, slight quality loss even at very high but close enough that it doesn't matter. Makes my PS TV look like a pile of poop, which is a tad depressing.

It should come with all new ones but I guess you have to be wary of old stock.

The Gears of War package* we got for my Sister in Law came with the old controller design. Bo doubt they are starting to filter through though.

Snap, just got me the gears bundle and it is indeed the 'original' controller
Bit disappointed, saw an unboxing of this and it had the newer version in..

Superb, very nearly bought TR on Xbox the other month when it was on sale for £9 and then again when I regretted missing that and nearly got it for £10 on PSN.

ic1male · 25 Aug 2015 at 17:16

I suspect TR is to spur on sales of the new one coming out.

I did buy it... annoyed now! Good game though.

I held off because I thought at one point it will turn up on GWG, what with the exclusive on the new game.
