Re: The Xbox One Thread

I'll wait until next year when the price drops to around £50 because no can possibly be stupid enough to pay £130 for a gamepad, surely?

Re: The Xbox One Thread

Microsoft have seen a niche in the market , people have been buying scuff game pads for ages and the decent pads start at £114 before even customising them. At least 4 people on my friends list have the scuff pads and say they make a huge difference, when you compare the ms pad with the scuff pad with all the extra paddles and thumb sticks it looks like pretty good value to me. I spent £120 on a fragfx shark pro when I played on the 360 and it was really really good , being able to remap buttons on the new ms controller already had me sold

Re: The Xbox One Thread

With EA Access, aren't you supposed to lose access to any games that you installed when your subscription ends?
Because mine ended Monday and I can still play Titanfall and Fifa 15 :/

Yes you're meant to lose access to them, is it only those 2?

Re: The Xbox One Thread

I only have those two installed
If I just say "Xbox, go to Titanfall/Fifa 15" the game boots up and I can play.
I don't have auto renew on, haven't been charged and I received the cancellation email.

I'm not complaining though, I'll just keep playing those games until they realise and switch off access.

I'm going to renew for the year though when my Gold expires in a couple of months anyway

I think I will let mine expire and see what happens, but I will renew again. As £20 a year is easily worth it, unless someone insists on buying EA games on release.

Re: The Xbox One Thread

I'll probably get FIFA for Christmas, the game I want most is the new F1 game. Videos on YouTube look amazing, and I missed out on the last game as they scrapped plans to release it for the One.

...and it's gone.
Maybe they gave subscribers an extra few days because access was free during E3?


And yeah, it's totally worth it. Gold from CDkeys and EA Access for £19.99 is pretty much the total retail price for a years Gold alone.

Re: The Xbox One Thread

If you like them on Facebook it's even cheaper... You can also get your credit for EA Access off there and save more. It's not much more but it's a saving.

Re: The Xbox One Thread

So I bought Halo MCC earlier as it was going cheap on the Xbox dash, which Halo game is considered to be the most popular for split screen play?

Re: The Xbox One Thread

The last main update was for backwards compatibility so if you're upto date then if you go to My Games and Apps, you may see some of your 360 games ready to install.
