I read something on a gaming news site yesterday about some people having problems with Twitch. Apparently it's a known issue, but I can't remember which site I read it on.

I saw exactly the same and can also not remember.

Edit

Has anybody here finished Dead Rising 3, I want to know if you finish the game can you go back at take out the zombies and do all the mop up the side missions.

if not how long should I leave it before I do the main missions.

For those in the Preview, here are some threads I've made that you may / may not want to bump with your support:

(50Hz is supposedly being fixed in the April update, but technically the release notes only mention Blu-rays and not DVDs, so I've posted about it anyway, especially as the latest 50Hz option currently does nothing)


Feedback section:

50Hz support needed for PAL DVDs



Feature request section:

50Hz support still needed for PAL DVDs

Controller battery level warning still needed

3D Blu-ray support needed

Dolby & DTS bitstream support is seriously flawed for a media player

Media Remote should be able to access DVD/BD menus

Pre-order and pre-load Digital Downloads

[MadGamer]

Aren't we already able to pre order digital downloads? I did before the console got released

With all the other fixes so far, I don't think it should have been released here in the state it came. I can't consider one till it's usable out of the box (without the need for all these fixes), that as well as having some decent titles for it, that is at least 'next gen' for starters.

Nor do I not want to see screen tearing and bad frame rate drops from something classed as next gen either. Just not good enough (yet).

What did you pre-order and where from?

You may have been able to pre-order a boxed digital download code, but there was not and is not any ability to pre-order games from the Xbox website or the console's own Store.

[MadGamer]

I was able to pre order from the Xbox store the day before the console released, so the games downloaded as soon as I connected to live

[Tezcatlipoca]

Must have just been a launch thing, as you can't do anything like that now.

I did that as well. I brought the games from Xbox Store day before Xbox One was released and then i started the download on the Xbox when it was set up. You are unable to do that again at present

Thief is currently 50% off on the digital store via the console at £24.74, is it a good game and worth it? Tomb Raider is on the cheap too.

[Tezcatlipoca]

Tomb Raider is definitely worth it. I bought it at full price when it came out and loved it.

Thief... Average reviews, IIRC, & I know a few people over at BXB who just found it boring. May not be too bad at half price though...

Question:

Have automatic game/app updates stopped working for anyone else, and if so when did it happen?

System updates still come through automatically for me, but not game/app updates.

I used to boot up and often have notifications about games and apps having been updated, but have not had that in what feels like quite a while now. e.g. I had to manually update Forza 5 and BF4 yesterday because they were not updated automatically.

I'm not sure when it last worked, perhaps before the February system update?

I love having the same conversation on multiple forums.

LOL

Yeah, I noticed the star in the corner on some stuff last night, *but* some of those games/apps still needed subsequent updates when I ran them.

[Hom3r]

how do do do a manual update on a game, and how do you check if a game/app needs one?
