Almost 10000 in the old thread, so it's time to start anew. The old thread can be found here.

Before you post in here, remember that there might be a more appropriate thread in the forum, with the main ones being:

Deals With Gold
Bargain Alerts
4K and HDR TVs
XBox gaming
Xbox system updates
Xbox Live Gold subscription deals

Remember, be kind to each other, don't be a d**k.

Enjoy.

I bought an iPad pro last year after years of saying I'd never buy an iOS device, and have to admit I absolutely love it. But that right there is the reason I've never owned an iPhone. Fúck Apple.

I've been streaming the Xbox one to the iPad using onecast and it works brilliantly, was really looking forward to the launch of xcloud. That is some fúcking nonsense though.

My iPad is on it’s last legs. Time to move on methinks!

Was there a summer sale this year? I can't remember if there was one or not.

Pretty sure that there was, but then again, it could have been some other kind of big sale. This entire year has blended into one, to be honest, feels like it could be Easter, Christmas, or Halloween at any stage, in any order.

Do you have to be near the Xbox with controller still connected to Xbox ?

Theres a huge summer sale on 560 games from tomorrow for 10 days. Chances are most of the offers will be live tonight. Here's a preview from the New Zealand store

Couple of questions if I may. Is the Elite controller as good as it's price suggests it should be, and will it be compatible with the new Xbox coming out?

Thinking about getting one for my son's 16th combined birthday/ chr*#+'as present but am reluctant if he's going to need to upgrade when we eventually get the new Xbox. Cheers.

I have the first gen one a few years now and find it pretty good. Not so great that it would make me go out and buy the new one but this one still works so maybe if it broke I may do that but tbh I would just look for old stock some where of the fist gen if it was going cheap.

Yeah good idea, I have a bit of time yet.

sniper_samurai

Have the first gen as well, great pad. The current second gen one is problematic though with a high failure rate due to broken buttons and severe drift in the sticks.

That's the reason stock of the 2nd gen has been virtually non existent since launch.

Lads, i sow that next gen xbox thread is pure **** show, I tried to ask my question there, but I think it got lost in a handbag and high heel battle. So ill try here.

Does anyone preordering new xbox already? Or is it a bit too early?

No one is taking preorders yet. GameStop are charging to "register your interest" that can be converted to an order once they begin.

ShadowHearth

Any point going and putting down a few quid now for xbox? I remember back in the day, when I preordered ps4, they had already about 30 preorders and only got 20 in, so first ones who preordered got it, the others waited second batch. And it was a small town. Now i am in Limerick, so surely more people will be looking for it.

Fuzzy Logic

No harm in doing it. I decided on the day to put the deposit down on both consoles

You can pay it off over a period of time which is good and also go in a list of guarenteed. I am just sending 35 a week into a revolut vault to pay for the excess after a trade in deal.

Controller to the Xbox. I haven't tried connecting the controller to the iPad (which is supported) but I suspect that would cause some issues.

I got the same app for MacOS (at twice the price) and it's rubbish, avoid.

I actually tried it by pairing the controller to the iPad there. No noticeable lag, works pretty well. The only thing is the start, back and Xbox buttons aren't mapped, you have to press start to bring up this toolbar in the app which then lets you choose start/back/menu. It's a little annoying but you get used to it fairly quick.
