Xbox One Console Thread

NMS is the game of the summer, and procedural so everything is different, so it's hardly surprising that it has multiple threads.

also PC chaos.

They both look great, Oceanhorn couldn't be more blatant in it's 'inspiration' well neither could Monster Boy I guess but both look really good games.

Oceanhorn is really nice. It really just feels like the devs have said... "Hey, we love Zelda, so let us make our own" and it is all the better for it. 

 

I wrote a review when it came out on PC: http://gamestyle.com/review/oceanhorn-monster-of-uncharted-seas-review/

Uno is alright but prominence poker is really good. Time to setup a tourney and slush money about via PayPal like the old days!!

 

Also looks like The Witness is dropping soon:

No it's not, it's Pokemon Go!

If anything NMS will be the game of winter when no fucker wants to go outside for 6 months.

Interesting. Might give this a go.

 

Could end up streaming Forza Horizon 3 at 60fps to my Xbox One.

Wouldn't surprise me if it introduces a wee bit of input lag and compression artifacts.

If I'm not mistaken you'll still need a decent PC to run anything demanding in your Steam library.   

 

 

[bradigor]

Not sure I get why it has to be one of those control setups. Why wouldn't my wired 360 controller work?

 

I am sure it is me being dumb

I just picked up Elite Horizon as I didn't want to start it if it wasn't fully fleshed. Fuck me that game has a learning curve. Everspace might've been the better option.

[Boozy The Clown]

The best way to learn Elite Dangerous is to take some driving lessons with someone who's already mastered it via party chat. The basics are quite simple once you've been talked through it. Trying to learn from the tutorials is infinitely more difficult.

not sure if it's been said but buying from foreign stores seems even easier now than ever. they've added paypal to all regions (i think?) you can just go to the region click the game click pre order choose paypal and buy. no vpn or revolut or phony foreign address needed. easy as pie. FH3 pre ordered

Thats very cool, where id FH3 cheapest then?

 

[SnoopZakaDaVe]

hong kong was the cheapest for the ultimate edition I pre ordered. worked out at about 63 quid rather than 80, so still quite pricey! 40 quid is the cheapest standard edition from Singapore.

I got FH3 from the SA store about a month or so ago for £34 - did they take the money @SnoopZakaDaVe ? They may still decline the payment they changed it and now they take the cash 10 days prior to launch I think. I always use prepaid credit for foreign stores now.

i used my sisters paypal as mine is having issues but i dont think they charged it yet. however it's already on my ready to install list and i got the confirmation email. i guess we'll see.

also i just checked my confirmation email and I did use a hong kong address as it happens but I'm not sure if I had to.

on the xbox website if you click your gamerpic at the top right then get onto payment methods etc you can add new ones and you can choose PayPal for any region.

[Hitcher]

I thought you couldn't use PP for foreign regions?

I've watched a hell of a lot of videos but in the end it's best just to get out in the system you're in and fly around. 

[Boozy The Clown]

I can highly recommend the Karzee Elite Dangerous flight academy. Reasonable rates and a very patient tutor.

[Stanley]

Is that a thing, actual tutors?

Xbox wireless protocols to be built into future PC's meaning Xbox accessories will work with them out the box.
