Yes, some games might need an update but generally they will work.
Thanks for the reply, it's just arrived so I guess I won't be getting much work done between now and 4pm

Still in stock now, though delivery Jan 4th.
Costco have them in as well
Is there a mince pie XBox bundle? I'd be having that.
Haha, hello there
Yeah, I got stuck on the other side of the world so they gave me citizenship and stuff 
I still lurk here from time to time. Yeah, I don't really play online much anymore, when they do have aussie servers they're pretty empty for most games after release month, same goes for Asian servers, and pings to the Northern hemisphere makes any sort of shooter etc pointless. Ah well, game pass has plenty of single player fun too
Yeah, its good, my first roguelite, and it took me a while to not get frustrated at dying and realise I was supposed to. Stick with it.
Thanks mate, you too!Anyway Happy Christmas and glad you are well

Guardians worth it for £39?
Just wait for it to come to Game Pass.

Seeing the 2TB SSD expansion start to appear in European stores. Amazon.de for £379. It always was going to be an insane price looking at the US cost.

Was wondering if anybody had made a nvme "caddy" to use any nvme ssd to get around the extortionate prices and found there is a caddy.
Ranging anywhere from £20-£40. Seems reasonable.
But trying to get a Western Digital CH SN 530 drive(the only compatible drive) at a reasonable price to put it in is another problem in itself

It would be pointless as you are bottleneck by the USB speed. It will be faster than a HDD but not worth it. I have 2 external drives attached to my SX, an 250G SSD and 4TB HDD. If a game can be run off external then it will run off fine from either. Any difference in speed is fairly minimal.

Completely misunderstood me.

I got excited for a second! That's some crazy restrictive downfail with that adapter though, almost defeats the point of it. I also wouldn't put it past Microsoft to patch out the ability to use a caddy.
The 1TB expansion is looking more attractive at this point and pair it with an external drive, like some of you guys are doing. I really can't see myself plumping up for the 2TB expansion anytime soon with that asking price. Perhaps towards the end of the Series X life it'll be sensible price

Just splashed the cash on the 1TB card, figured I'd use it quite nicely as games get bigger and I can then but my 2.5" SSD back in to the PC. Expensive here in NZ but can't be bothered trying to hack an expansion and it fits neatly in the back.

I got it for £28 in Asda a few weeks ago, not sure if that price stands.
