Yeah it’s that laziness/impatient thing. I couldn’t be bothered putting the disc in to watch aliens tonight so I just rented it for £3.49 instead :lol:
Great film! As I was saying the other day, digital movies tend to have the opposite pricing issues of games. With movies, the digital version is often way cheaper. A few months back on iTunes, I bought the whole Alien collection for £7!
 
That said @altodevil, that example is a rip, so I deffo would wait. What other games were you looking at?
Nah just saw that one while browsing wasn't one I fancied. Quite like the idea of picking up Bully and GTA 4 though for my collection, but the digital editions are very expensive a for 10+ year old games.
 
Crackdown and Hexic HD were free though which is nice.
 
This is why I keep telling people to buy physical. You would be able to pick that up for £4 on ebay.

Buying games second hand, I agree. Buying new games, I'm moving towards digital just because of the environmental aspect, plus the use of Microsoft rewards points generally saves me real money.
 
Right, I've rearranged the shelves on the unit around the TV and have the space required for the series X. Roll on Tuesday.
 
Has anyone else ordered the XSX with Smyths through Xbox all access?
I’ve got the order confirmation email and it’s all set up on Klarna, but no further correspondence and the symths site just says you’ll get an email once shipped

My mate has, he just got a ready for dispatch email.
 
Xbox Series X device with serial number now in my Microsoft Devices page online. Soon.
 


17GB for Sea of Thieves vs 47gb is great.
 
Am I really going to buy a series S just because I can't get hold of anything else?
 
So I get my Xbox this week.

I have game Pass. I have spent the last year in a little bubble because I have only been playing COD and Fifa. What do you recommend I do?

Book a week off work and play goat simulator for a week
 
Found myself buying Dirt 5 literally because I’ve always had a racing game at launch! I even know it’s not gonna be that good :lol:
 
Right guys with there being more Xbox’s available for order on Tuesday which site would you recommend I try? I’m going to be working so will only have a really small window to try and get one so I’ll have to put all my eggs in one basket, which site will give me the best chance? Or will it just be pure luck on any of them?

Supposedly John Lewis stock will be delivered immediately as they never opened pre-orders for their September lot. I think the rest are expected to be delivered just before christmas.

Possibly Asda via George. That's just a rumour though.

If you haven't played Forza Horizon 4 then that's on game pass with a free next gen update. Great game.

Not Game or Smyth's as they do the All Access so probably be busier. Amazon, Argos, Very I would say.

Cheers fellas will decide between one of these, I was initially thinking of trying the Microsoft store but seeing as neither of you have suggested it would that be a bad idea? :lol:

Microsoft as dry as the queens puss at this point.
 
Does anyone know if I can share my game pass ultimate sub with my son who is on PC? I see there is a family share thing but from googling I’m not getting a definitive answer
 
It gets stick here but I stand by the value proposition of the Series S at £250 is incredible.

I think you just need to sign into your son's PC on your account and assign it as your 'home' / primary PC device. Guessing this is done on the windows app.
