That'd be your...second xbone? Perfect for Ciabatta and her matsui tv plugged into a wharfdale speaker bar while talking to her friends Aiymeeey and Chlamidya.

Crazy bargains. I'd definitely be buying my first XBox at that price, if it weren't for the fact that what I actually need to be able to buy is more time to play games.

Having said that, I'm always a bit suspicious when retailers lead the way on mega-bargains like this; I assume there's got to be something better round the corner.

Unless they're just clearing the decks for the XBoneX.

Second, yes - unironically it is for the little one to play Minecraft in her bedroom rather than in the front room.

Would a 360 or ps3 do for minecraft instead for less?

What kind of man outfits a child under his custody with a last gen games console?

I have reserved the £200 Forza and Destiny deal at Argos but doubt I will pull the trigger. Both XBox Ones I've purchased have been plagued with the random controller disconnect issue and have had to be returned. I was hoping MS had sorted the issue with the S revision but still hear of people having exact same issue. Yep, it's a great deal but I just can't be doing with the grief and frustration. It's not as if I'm short of stuff to play on the PS4 either.

Shouldn't have consoles there anyway, toys or nothing in the bedroom (Kenneth.jpg).

The amount of people I know who give their reallt young kids their own t.v., iPad, Netflix, consoles etc instead of actual toys and things to stimulate their minds is just shocking. No wonder kids are strawberry floating retards with no attention span or creativity these days.

You're setting yourself up for a lifetime of misery there. Always give kids the previous generation of anything (games, toys, cars, clothes, phones etc) or else they'll always expect (and loudly demand, in a whiney voice, normally in public) the latest and greatest of everything.

If there's anything worse than Nazis, it's spoiled children.

Heres a wild one, you may have forgotten, but you used to be a kid too, and did you like old shite or the new hotness that your mates had?

Unlike you lame old men I am a cool, young parental figure. That means I am in touch with the youth, and respect that a kid doesnt want uncool trash.

Also her current savegames and gooseberry fool are already on the xbox and strawberry float off if Im buying another strawberry floating copy of strawberry floating minecraft for another strawberry floating device. Shes locked into the xbone ecosystem for the rest of her life.

But, Ad7, the Xbox One Home Entertainment and Video Game System is essentially a PC for the television! Marrying its powerful CPU and GPU with ample RAM, Microsoft have created a device which not only offers the convenience of 'Drop-In' and play disk based games, but also utilises an incredible Cloud system to allow you to download and play games - whenever you like! Pair this ease of use to the secure knowledge of a Microsoft backed PC-like application ecosystem and this one device covers every possible need. This all without getting to the vast third party offerings including big hitters like Netflix or Spotify!

It really is all a man (or child) could need!

Bought the Xbone One S with Destiny 2 and Forza Horizon 3 from Amazon for £199.99 earlier today. That's the boys Xmas present sorted

Can't believe they will have a better version of the XB1 before me but as I don't really play (hardly ever switch on) my launch XB1 I can't complain. Will nab Destiny 2 off them either to play or sell and hopefully we can share FH3 across both consoles so long as I redeem on my XBL account. They're too young to have their own XBL accs

Preordered Fifa 18 for them as that's all they'll really play anyway

What's the best Xbox one controller dual docking charging station to buy please?

Seen this one for £19.99 which whilst isn't the cheapest, seems to be decent.

Being in touch with youth and knowing what is best for a kid are not the same. Let them enjoy their childhood, keep technology to a minimum during that time. They have a lifetime of technology ahead of them.

I don't like any of them. They're all flawed by the fact you have to use the included battery packs (because they need exposed contacts to connect to the dock). No idea how obtainable replacements are when the batteries start to fail.

I stick with the official play & charge kit, despite the cable.


EDIT: Actually, this one looks interesting, if you happened to want a stand as well. It uses the controllers' original connectors, so you can use any battery pack, and it also has extra USB ports.
