XMas MS Advert. I think it's brill

I think it's quite depressing. Poor dog ignored by his family because they're glued to their screens all day. It's clearly trying to be a heartwarming John Lewis style advert but massively misses the mark.

Just managed to grab one from Grimsby so an hours drive each way which isn't too bad. Wife isn't too happy but meh!

Red dead online worth buying at the super cheap current price please ?

Read mixed reviews but seems good value

It's good for about two/three hours. You'll need to buy gold bars in order to unlock the professions and the content even after recent additions is severely lacking. Having tried to stick with it, I really can't recommend it.

Don't think I've ever gone fishing in online mode, but if my memory serves, it should work the same as single player where you can buy the stuff from a store.

Agreed. Are they trying to get us off our screens?

I felt guilty after watching that - and i don't even have a dog.

Really impressed with the insider program getting updates/fixes earlier than normal.

Anyone else's fan staying on in rest mode? Series x.

I have nothing on download and it's been on for the last hour...

Not once it’s cooled down or once it’s finished downloading.

Started Halo 3 ODST today, it’s good so far. A very different feel to being the master chief. Reckon I have plenty of time to finish the lot of them before infinity drops.

If anyone has a sealed Series x they want to sell let me know

Yeah the fan comes on for everyone's Series S and X consoles occasionally in rest mode. They get quite warm too.

Mine was on for a few hrs last night as I did quite a bit of gaming. But once it’s cooled down then it turns off. Hardly heard it though and I think it’s a good feature to have as it cools the console down after use.
