    I believe its already full up.
    the old link used to be xbox.com/gamestreaming

    According to Major Nelson they might cycle people through the Beta programme, so you could still sign up and might still get in at a later date.

    That's good news. I was already in the preview program for the UK, but using it in Ireland. I found it had just enough lag to make it unusable for me. Hopefully this will improve when running on the Dublin datacenter.

    I followed CatInABox's link and when I sign in it gives me the option to change my country to Ireland. It's good they have thought this out and there are no issues around re-registering.

    Just got into the program last night. Unfortunately it was pretty much unplayable. Was getting download speeds of 25mbs, upload of 8mbs on my 5GHz wifi but the game was a laggy mess. Any tips as to why this might be? Trying again today at work on 90mbs wifi.

    Are you 100% sure you were connected to the 5ghz band from your router

    Any word on the PC app yet? :)
    A poor WiFi card and slow access ROM on my phone makes it dog shít.
    Getting a new phone soon, but looking forward to the PC app more!

    Still coming, and in internal testing now. The video shows the app itself in action, but only the local streaming part.

    Thanks, looking like it's moving along so.
    We can already do Xbox to PC streaming with the console companion app, so it's more the xcloud stuff I'm looking forward to :)

    Yep. Tried at work today but only had access to 2.4GHz network. Tried again at home on 5GHz. Same outcome. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S9. But it's about a year and a half old so maybe it's performance is part of the problem.

    Any suggestions for a cheap controller to use with my android phone?
