Xbox One X

I'm wondering whether or not it's worth buying an X.

I want to use the xbox in a games room with a 43" 4k tv, no hdr.

I've got a ps4 pro in my living room but hardly use it due to it being a shared room. I did try putting my ps4 pro in my games room but the wi-fi on the ps4 is rubbish(switch too, not ipad or iphone).

Its a helluva price hike from the x1s so do you think its worth paying over £200 more for this machine?

cheers

Wouldn't it just be cheaper to sort the network issue on the PS4 from the games room?

not really. i would need a decent mesh network, which would cost about £400.

Ok, just make sure you have the ability to send the Xbox back if it's just as bad.

Anyone seen a stellar XOX deal around? nVidia can go suck the big one at those prices!

Just set an alert up on HUKD, bound to snag one. Was a good one from AO a couple of days ago but expired

but always popping up

Thanks @hyperseven will do

Now is not a great time for deals. I got mine for only £399.99 a few months ago but that deal is long gone. Best you can get right now is around £415 for the console alone or £425 with Sea Of Thieves included. Otherwise wait a few weeks MS are bound to offer the usual 2 new games bundles nearer October or late September. I expect there will be a Shadow Of the Tomb Raider or Forza 4 bundle sooner or later

I think you're right, these things tend to come in waves (and I'm not too bothered about games I have no interest in). I'll keep my eyes open for a good s/h deal too

Been waiting for this update for an age, well since last year when I got the X

Fully intend to do each campaign again.

Yeah me too... I've got the halo 3 update. Should be interesting to see the difference with the master chief version

Have they fixed this from it's initial release? Heard it was almost unplayable. That was a long time ago though.

theone8181 · 23 Aug 2018 at 07:29

I wonder if you will still be able to switch to 'old graphics mode on the masterchief collection', or if there will be 3 options to play as?
