Both Ori games - masterpieces imo
Forza Horizon 4 - if you're into racing games and arguably even if not, as it's open world - im not into racing games and love Forza.
Halo Master Chief Collection - a lot of gaming here if you haven't played the series
Crackdown 3 - a bit marmite but I really enjoyed it
State of Decay 2 - cant go wrong with a bit of zombie slaying

Lots of other cross platform games worth a look if you missed them on PS; RE7, Outriders, Sniper Elite 4, Code vein, Streets of rage 4, Evil Within 1 and 2, The Surge 2, Dishonored 2, Zombie Army 4.
Thanks! Great suggestions, particularly Ori!

^^ sadly I've played Hades to death, although I'm tempted to play it again
 
Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, Sea of Thieves, Gears Tactics and Grounded are all worth a go too. I'd put all of those ahead of Crackdown 3 and State of Decay 2, personally.
 
Still can't get a Series X after all this time. Every time stock pops up on the Microsoft store its gone within seconds. Pretty much give up.

Quite a few people are having success, stock is dropping, there's a lot of info in this thread.

But basically you need to sign up for stock alerts from various sources and ensure you have an account and saved card details where possible so you can jump on and check out immediately.
 
Good point, didn't consider that. It's coming tomorrow apparently, so not even sure it's coming from outside the UK?

Guess you'll find out tomorrow.

Something that small has a good chance just slip through anyway. I bought a £200 figure from AmiAmi in Japan and it came through without customs, the box was big enough to house a microwave.
 
Won't that need another 20% + duty ?

Nope.

Way back at the start of this year, many retailers (Amazon EU included) started collecting UK VAT on sales in to the UK. This was then rolled out across the EU from 1st July, with VAT for cross-border sales being collected for the destination country rather than the country where the sale was conducted.
 
Had some weird issues last night playing NFS Heat, first the games sound stopped but the dashboard sound worked fine I had to reboot the Xbox to get it back, then I had two freezes where the game froze but the Xbox dashboard worked fine, if I tried to launch the game again I just got a black screen. The first time I rebooted and it happened again after a minutes at which point I did a full shut down and power on and it was fine after that.

The game is on an external drive but I've played it for hours so far with no issues up until last night.

Hope my Xbox isn't breaking already :(
 
Wow, it'll have been many years since I played Quake. Shame there is no Quake II. I was hoping they'd bring back the excellent soundtrack that was on the PC CD-ROM, not available on digital versions.
