I have just managed to order a day one console from Game:) I used stockchecker.co.uk to keep and eye out and this time I luckily managed to find stock unfortunately I had to buy a bundle which included the Forza, BF4, Fifa and call duty ghosts.

I just bought the same, I feel a little dirty now and I'm fairly sure my credit card hates me. :(
 
I have used the tracker with my confirmation email and clicked on amend and it says this message in red:

Changes to delivery address will not apply to items that have already been sent to the warehouse. Please contact customer services if you want such items to be shipped to the new address.

Time will tell.

I've spent a bit of time with COD Ghosts now, and just can't get into the multiplayer. I was all over Black Ops II multi, prestiging a bunch and really enjoying it.

Am I just getting bored of the same thing again or am I really missing something? Thinking about trading in for BF4, and noticed a lot of people in this thread seemed to have gone with BF4.... thoughts?

No, COD: Ghosts online is just pure utter ****. Will be dead after another month.

10/10 of people i know who have bought it have now sold it.

I think you're right, there doesn't seem to be the whole 'hold back and have a tactic' in COD, at least I haven't figured it out...

Well certainly if you're in a decent game in BF, you do have a few moments before re-spawning and thinking.."hmm..how do I want to do this".

COD lost all of that for me really, at least you had a few classes that made sense in some levels.

Enjoying the console still, aside from my Kinect issues. However has anyone else found the shiny part on their console to be even worse than that of most other devices? Mine seems to have fingerprints permanently on it now and even with a soft cloth they won't wipe off and it just scuffs it and scratches it more. Wonderful, after less than 3 days it looks like **** now :(

I cleaned mine with a soft microfibre cloth and it's fine, no scratches and it's in a TV cabinet anyway so I cant see the dust :p
 
On the GAME website, on the listing page of the Xbone consoles, if you click the "out of Stock" option on the left, some of them disappear... so the site says they are out of stock so it would seem. But who knows with GAME.

Is anyone else console making a faint sound when it's switched off? I guess it's the power setting for keeping it on standby, I hope anyway.

Actually I think it's coming from the power brick, very slight fast clicking sound coming from the console when I put my ear to it as well though.

Both will emit a faint sound in Instant Boot mode, the PSU has a small fan anyway like the 360, and the console itself keeps either a fan spinning slowly or the HDD ticking over, not sure which.

TBH my Sky+ box is louder when that's in standby, so unless the room is deathly quiet you wouldn't notice it unless something is wrong.
 
I'm not going to risk it with Game. If it's not in stock and they take the money I don't fancy any hassle getting it back. Also who knows when they'll go into administration, with my luck during my purchase :D
 
Finally called MS about how noisy my One is after all the talk about how quiet its supposed to be. They're sending me a new one then I can send this one back.

He asked me how noisy is it. I said I'm in the kitchen, and I can hear it from the lounge quite clearly, oh, and I have a dining room in between too.

I did feel a bit of pathetic with all the failed disc drives etc just calling to complain about a bit of noise, but I knew it would bother me in the long run.

What noise should I expect?
 
So, does anyone have any build issues with their controllers then?

As previously stated, one of mine is missing some black from the "X" guide button and on both, the top half of the casing sticks out at one side.

With all this talk of Amazon / Microsoft sending out a new one and then collecting the old one, it might be worth me trying.

My concern about the Game website is it's not 100% clear if they have them in stock or not. The banner above the bundle says Guaranteed for Xmas.

I ordered this on Saturday, and then I got confused as to if it was to come soon or before xmas as it says on the page. So I bought another xbox from ebay and paid over the odds.

My game shipment was dispatched yesterday arrive today, So these are in stock

I now have two xbones :S

It definitely shouldn't be that loud. My xbox is in my bedroom where its obviously very quite and even then I can only here a light humming noise when I'm going to sleep. With the TV on or any other noise in the room like people talking I can't here it at all

Minimal noise. I can barely hear mine and it's 6 feet away from me. You did the right thing
