Got valiant hearts on gold last night, for some reason I went into the Xbox store and I'm sure A.C. syndicate is up same bundle for 69 and 89 Euro can that be correct, both said same extra pre order dickens conspiracy theory add ons on both, am I missing something on?

Maybe one has a season pass and the other doesn't? Pre-order bonuses probably apply to both versions. Just guessing though.

They do, just thought it was strange the price difference between them, didn't see a mention of season pass, but I'll look again today

Im staying away from Assassins Creed until I see some reviews come in (considering I preordered the last 3!) I was just so fed up with the last one

Yeah, never bought one either, and have never felt like I missed out.

On the 14th of October my controller stopped working, I contacted Microsoft through their website to arrange for a replacement, got the paperwork, boxed it all up and arranged for UPS to collect it.
I got a txt to confirm it and I noticed the last txt from them for when the headset stopped working. 14th of May this year!
I am expecting something to go wrong on the 14th of April

I think it the help it offers on certain missions that you complete kinds spoil the thrill of doing it and succeeding, noting beats doing a tough mission and finishing doing it your own way without a cheat/ or pass even if it takes 5/6 goes,

Is this any good?? or is there better chargers for the controllers,

When it comes to chargers I think its difficult to beat the official charge kit from Microsoft.

Great long charge with a very long usb cable also.

Are there any decent online retailers selling download codes? I know cdkeys, but they don't have a great selection. Microsoft store games are €10 over priced, €69.99 for games you can get on DVD for €60. (surely downloads should be cheaper than DVD?!).

On a related note, is it possible to buy download keys from US or UK sites and use them on Irish Xbox?

It's possible to buy from literally any other countries xbox store. We can't discuss how but google it. There a site that gives price comparisons across the different countries.

Thanks, I'm sure I heard this trick was closed off so never bothered looking into it. I'll get googling...

Bethesda announced a nice looking Fallout 4 XB1 controller.

Interestingly enough, there's not slot at all for the older headsets, just a 3.5mm jack:

That's a cool controller. What are the little joypad and what looks like a cloud symbol on the d-pad about?

I'm not sure, there's a little button to the right of the right analogue too with a little led :S

It's not up for sale until tomorrow so maybe find out more then. I'm considering getting it depending on price

I'd guess the D-pad has a secondary function activated by the button beside the right analog stick.

Up & Down on the D-pad could be volume control.
Left - Game volume
Right - Chat volume.

I reckon you're spot on, what I was calling a cloud looks like the outline of a head on shoulders on second look.

MiskyBoyy · 19-10-2015 10:11PM

It's a wired controller. It can stay there so, such a shame!

That's the party chat icon. Must be to adjust party volume.

Yar, they are the same buttons as is on the original adapter: party, game and +-.
