I'll give you the starting pitch, and tell you that it goes all places from there. You play as an insurance inspector for the East India Trading Company, tasked with solving the mystery of the Obra Dinn, a ship that disappeared with all hands and has now returned. I'll also note that I've seen it recommended countless times on Boards, and it's won multiple Baftas, and is very highly reviewed.

If playing COD during this time I would not be able to hear the sound of the game/TV, I'd have to up it to a level that I reckon would wake the house. It was proper loud. Headset is a must. I'm sure I have a video somewhere, I'll dig it up. I should have got a fresh before and after recording last night, d'oh. Also I think the later released One Xs are fine so you should be OK. Mine is a day one, non-scorpio.

I see 12 months Xbox Live is 45 euro on CD Keys. Is this the best option available? Fifa 21 (UK) Version is 51 euro on CD Keys. Will that work ok on my Irish account?

I advise getting 30 months of live and then buying a month of GPU, this should bring you to 35 months of GPU if you accept the free month for turning on auto renew and turning it off again before entering the next code. The FIFA code will not work on an Irish account, since gifting was made available game keys can now be region specific.

Is the controller battery compartment cover a special one or is it just a normal one, same as the black xbox one controllers? I think the scorpio controller has a hint of green in it, but I can't tell
