If you go on Mixer, http://mixer.com/XBox, and it's not on, you see the schedule.
Based on my calculations, streams on Tuesday and Wednesday will start at 9pm IST, while Thursday's stream starts at 6pm IST.

Watched the whole thing. Nothing happened. Will try again tonight.

I got no notifications. I checked the store and the freebies are there ready to install.

Cheers, will check it out. I had already linked my MS account to mixer and watched the MS stream Sunday night but I never got any of the goodies

I look at Pro as more of a competitor to S than I do to Xbox One X.

Ha, good luck trying to sell that one!

I only watched the Xbox presentation so I do not know and this is probably better asked in the general gaming section but anyway was Red Dead Redemption 2 mentioned in any of the shows?

There was no mention of RDR2 in any of the shows.

Probably because it has been further delayed, and would probably be shown at the next E3.

Especially as Sony are going to make itself a competitor. Mutterings of shady deals to drag the 1X patches down to parity with the Pro :mad:

Doubt sales of either will be enough to make developers debase themselves with something like this, to be honest.

I don't think rockstar do e3. I think the 'next' gen version of gtav was a first for them.

It's just speculation about the fact that they have marketing deals with games, no evidence of anything.

I hope not but I do remember Watch Dogs.

Although it could never be proved it looked like PlayStation's deal for Watch dogs included gimping the PC version to make sure it wasn't way better than the PS4 version.

The files where later found in the PC game install that instantly increased the visuals similar to the original Watch Dogs demo.

We will know when Destiny 2, Call of Duty and Battlefront 2 launch in a few months time. If there is no XB1X update for those games we will know that is part of the deal with PlayStation.

No just speculation. Eurogamer asked Phil Spencer about it (specifically COD WW2) in the post E3 interview but he wouldn't comment as he has no info on it.

Same was said about Battlefield One on the PS Pro. There was an unannounced update that hugely increased framerates on the Pro. it was then removed a week later. The theory was that because the game had a marketing deal with MS, the improvement had to be rolled back.

Pretty sure that's just referring to the MP part of the game though, where they released a patch that meant that PS4 Pro gamers were giving a huge advantage over PS4 players. They then had to roll that back because of the rules that Sony themselves put out, namely that Pro gamers wouldn't get an advantage like that.

It's been stated repeatedly it's up to the developers what they do with the X... It's almost as if they're washing their hands of any of that nonsense.

Is this the way forward for the industry? Exclusives! Timed exclusives! Better patches 'only available on...'

On Xbox Daily: They just asked a Battlefront 2 dev studio person about Xbox One X.

He replied that he cannot talk about it right now but he said he was personally excited about having the power of the X.

I am betting that we get the Xbox One X updates for multiplatform games that Sony have marketing deals with. However I anticipate a delay of a few weeks to ensure that the PS4 Pro has the best version of each game at launch.

Anyone got a trick for getting this Mixpot crap. I watched E3 on Mixer and Xbox Daily on mixer and still nothing.

I'm the same, it says that it can take a week to appear but most of the lads have their rewards already.

They are building an Xbox One X part by part currently on Xbox Daily.
