    i think i have fallen out of love with xbox the last few months i have barely played anything on it seem to be more intrested in the pc and switch

    threes nothing to attract me to it I'm hoping for a great e3 but i'm not holding my breath either

    i tell ye one thing lads, I hope E3 gives us all we're hoping for and more, cause just from my own casual observations, this place (boards xbox section) is gone as dead as a dodo.

    maybe we should relaunch the xbox vs ps4 thread, it was always pretty good at drumming up a bit of reasoned, well thought out debate :eek:

    Come on... who threw that?
    No one is to stone anyone until I blow this whistle. Even, and I want to make this perfectly clear ... Even if they do say PS4.

    Lads, is the rte player not on Xbox one? Am nearly sure I had it on 360.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,189 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    My Xbox one just powered off and won't power back on even after unplugging the power from the console and power block :(

    Is there a light on the power supply when plugged in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,189 ✭✭✭✭GBX

    It lights up briefly but doesn't stay on

    Do you have your console set to instant on or power saving mode?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,189 ✭✭✭✭GBX

    Yeah.. would that not set itself after unplugging it ?

    Could it have been installing an update when you unplugged it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,189 ✭✭✭✭GBX

    That I'm not sure of as my nephew was playing it when it powered down :confused:

    If he was playing it at the time its unlikely it powered down to update the console.

    Is the console turning on at all now? even for a few seconds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,189 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    No, the most I'm getting is the orange light on the power block then nothing. Nothing from the console itself.

    Can you borrow a Power supply from someone to see if its the power supply or the console thats not working.

    For those not watching E3.

    Scorpio will be called Xbox ONE X and releases November 7th.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,861 ✭✭✭MiskyBoyy


    $499 so probably €499.

    Comes with 1TB HDD.

    No mention of Freesync 2 or is that even a thing.

    I suppose they never mentioned it as there is no Freesync 2 Tv's. A 4K Tv with true HDR is all you really need.

    It's a thing, but as you say, there's no TV's out there with it.

    All the PC guys swear by Gsync, which is essentially the same tech, they say it's the kind of feature that once you have it, it ruins all other monitors afterwards, so it seems to be great.

    They'd swear by FREESYNC too if AMD would hurry up and start being competitive again :rolleyes:

    Nice shot, shows the controller 'towering' prefer the box, shows how small the X really is.

    I'll see if I can and try this later.

    I knew it was a bit of a reach to want it - but at 500 for just the console I am struggling to justify it to myself. If the Elite pad had been bundled in at that price I'd have probably been sold.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 49,521 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor


    I'm also surprised there was no Halo announcement for One X launch - thought there would be a big chance of it being a major launch title and built to take real advantage of the hardware. The fact there was a master chief helmet rendering in the opening cinematic had me convinced we would see something.


  • Administrators, Computer Games Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 33,064 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭Mickeroo


    There was three years between halo 4 and 5 and it's only been a year and a half since 5, would have been very surprising to see it as a launch title this year. I'd say we'll definitely see Halo 6 autumn/winter 2018 though and it will come to both Windows 10 and Xbox.
