BritishBean Didn’t realise you could transfer games and apps from one Xbox to another Xbox if they are on the same network. Works for XO to SX or SS. Will come in handy next week! https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/console/enable-network-game-transfer-xbox-one
Alex Good news on the storage front. Series S games significantly smaller than X. Hopefully this extends to third party games as well.
BritishBean Jonbwfc haha I never get these things early. I distinctly remember XO launch day and having to listen to The King Prawn and @JayFantana on party chat playing theirs whilst I waited…. patiently… in fact, I have some space in my work calendar between 11 and 2 when I could set it up so I have no doubt know it’ll be delivered at 2.02pm.
Gordon BritishBean mine was supposed to be today. Woke up to Amazon notification saying it’ll be tomorrow instead. Boo!
BritishBean Gordon oh that’s rubbish! More a delivery issue rather than a stock issue then. That’s poor from Amazon when they’re usually the experts at next day…
Gordon @BritishBean it’s a bit annoying but I’ll live. I wouldn’t have had much chance to play with it today anyway, kids are off school. Tomorrow I’ve got the place to myself all day 🙂
DrDamn Gordon Tomorrow I’ve got the place to myself all day 🙂 Amazon delivery slot between 8pm and 10pm confirmed!
Jogort Oocha, that’s not good https://www.vg247.com/2020/11/10/xbox-series-x-amazon-pre-order-delay-december/
Gammerz Jogort I’d expect some serious compensation because the delivery date is part of purchase contract, and that would be gross product mis-description.
Gammerz If you’ve upgraded from an X1X then I think the new Xbox will feel disappointing - all you seem to get is faster loading times. However, if you’ve upgraded straight from the X1 and own a 4K TV, the console will seem a lot more impressive.
Alex I’m sure it will be pretty awesome, third party games still have cool stuff like ray tracing support, higher fps etc. All reports are that the XSX is a pretty great machine.
Jogort Gordon that sucks, although all my orders say arriving by 9pm from Amazon, usually changes on the day thankfully.
Gordon Honestly, I’m not that fussed. It’s going to be a GamePass box mostly. Now, if my PS5 doesn’t turn up on time next week on the other hand…
Jonbwfc Gordon In my experience that tends to mean ‘it’s in the nearest distribution point and we’re going to stick it on a van today’. Once it’s actually on a van their system has done the route plan for it swaps to a more specific time. Unless they’ve got in extra ‘man with van’ types to handle a spike of delivery load in which case it stays at ‘it’ll show up at some point’ until it does. I suspect the XBSX and PS5 release days may possibly be those kind of load spikes…
DrDamn Gammerz I was talking about @Gordon and his delivery. Two days off, bound not to arrive until late on the second day. I had to cancel my pre order due to catalytic converter stealing #&*!?
