Xbox now the best selling console for the 4th month in a row now as per NPD
The see-saw is swinging again

be interesting to see if they maintain that with the pspro coming out.

Although, we're definitely at the stage now where people who had initially committed to one brand or the other are now finding the second console more affordable than at launch.

I saw on reddit that they are still selling xbox 360 games in stores, but have rebranded the backwards compatible ones to indicate that they are now playable on xbox one.

Is it MS doing this or publishers / retailers?

How do I install wallpapers from the Xbox site to my One:

http://www.xbox.com/en-us/wallpapers/#/

Do i need to do it from a PC, save the image to a stick and insert the stick into my One?

Can I access and download wallpapers directly from the One itself?

maximoose · 17-11-2016 06:25PM

I save wallpapers into my onedrive, then use media server app on my phone (I use BubbleUPnP) along with the media player app on Xbox to set them as wallpapers.

Not a thing unfortunately according to Major Nelson on Reddit

This was a test that slipped out.
There are no plans right now for it to go live.

Umm,

has modern warfare 3 just gone backwards compatible?

Going by his post, it seems it leaked early, so probably will be a thing down the line.

Thoughts on metro redux? It's only €6 in the store

I am very tempted but I get the feeling it will be GWG very soon.

Plus the fact that I have about 500 quid in cex vouchers upstairs doesnt help either.

Pretty sure both metro games were gwg already.

Edit- scratch that they were both 360 versions.

Im getting plenty of offers to help spend them already dont worry

Its the fact that metro was gwg on 360 that makes me pretty confident that it will be gwg on xb1 soon.

I have it , but have only completed metro 2033. It's a very atmospheric old school shooter with a hint of survival game depending on the difficulty level picked. TBH at that price its a must buy for everyone. A great game.

Is the Linx Vision tablet still the best way to go for streaming xbox to laptop or tablet or has something better came?

Just report the post and move on, the mods will kick it upstairs, then the user is permabanned, and all the posts disappear.

Apart from the ones that get quoted, and as I don't want to give spammers an inch, I've edited yours to take out his post.

I'm pretty sure he posted it in everyone besides the one used for swapping games

No, he got that one too, a few threads on the PS forum, a few games threads in the main gaming forum as well. In fact, he got one of the threads twice. Total facepalm.

I only just noticed that you can now spend CeX vouchers online

You can also email customer support to get them to convert it to Sterling voucher to use on their UK site (via parcelmotel). Most stuff is a lot cheaper from there.
