*** The Official Xbox One Thread ***

[spaceman]

Another month where I have everything. Nevermind, I almost look forward to months where I don't get anything more free as I have a massive backlog of games to get through :\ Bitter sweet.

I've got a massive backlog of these games with gold games to play. Most i've only played once or twice, if that.

I spend all my Xbox time on Forza and World of Tanks these days.

World of Tanks had a big update yesterday (25GB), it loads games faster now at last.

Just bought Forza 6 for the Xbox and i forgot just how much i hate this bloody interface and how terrible managing games is on it!!

And that every game needs a full install before you can play it, God sake, what happened to the days of consoles you got a game, put the disc in and away you go, not 20 minutes for it to install! Urrgggggg

Any recommendations on headsets? A few people on Reddit have said the official Xbox one is decent but I am skeptical, it looks a bit naff.

Every games needs a full install before playing it?...how am I playing games then before the full install is done?
Whats difficult about managing the games, pin it to home screen...start game.
That and the install includes any downloads for any updates since launch.

Indeed. I could start playing forza horizon 2 literally a couple of minutes after popping the disc in the drive.

I really dislike how there is no fast resume like on the ps4.

Xbox resumes pretty quick imo ok not as fast of ps4 but its not so bad

Maybe the new dash update will make it ever faster..we will have to see

What? Xbox has had fast resume long before PS4 did.

A lot of games don't need a full install.

Managing games terrible? Press options on the pinned icon and go manage game? Exactly the same as any current console.

Really? I can't seem to find the option to enable it.

Edit... Ah is it the instant on setting?

LOL, its something we proud XboxOne owners have to put up with, games only being 720p another one amongst the long list of false statements.

 

[Soulja]

Wasn't instant on a buggy mess for a long time though? I remember games closing upon resume.

 

[T1Cybernetic]

Brilliant, Thank you very much. I literally have no idea when it comes to consoles but I'll give anything a try! And some of the games aren't half bad.
