Xbox One Chat - May Xbox Update Available & Introducing the Xbox Adaptive Controller (p289)

Frank wrote:Just nabbed Quantum Break from CEX - Couldn't see any boxes with a code insert, so am I out of luck for Alan Wake, or was it one of the message codes like they did for Gears of War?

Mine was a digital code that came separate with QB's digital code in the Xbone bundle.

And now I think about it, wasn't I supposed to have gotten a code for the PC version too from MS?

I don't think they send separate codes. It should already be there in your library in the Windows 10 Store.

I bought QB digitally and got a code, gave to Brer who hated it!

Alan Wake was for pre-ordering I think!? BTW, AW runs great on X1.

Couldn't see this weeks deals as being posted

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime and Monkey Island 2: Special Edition now free with Gold.

Why are there so many version of FH2. It's so confusing.

I swore over Christmas when they were on sale there was a version that included the Porsche and Storm Island DLCs but it disappeared after the sale and it doesn't seem to be included in any of these versions

EDIT just did some google searching and it was called "Forza Horizon 2 Complete Add-Ons Collection" and was £29.40 https://winstoredb.com/en-GB/Product/BP4NP6DFZVCS

Bethesda’s Fallout Shelter Coming to Xbox One and Windows 10 Next Week

Bethesda Game Studios, the award-winning creators of Fallout 4 and Skyrim Special Edition, have announced that Fallout Shelter is expanding once more to a new audience, putting Overseers in control of their own Vault and an army of Dwellers on Xbox One and Windows 10. Fallout Shelter will be available on February 7 as an Xbox Play Anywhere title via a free download from the Xbox Store or Windows Store.

Fallout Shelter thrusts players into the role of Overseer to build their own Vault, manage dwellers, and adventure through Fallout’s iconic wasteland. Since the game’s original launch in 2015, the game has continued to expand and add features, including Crafting, Scrapping, Pets, additional rooms, iconic Fallout 4 characters, and special Dweller customization options. The game’s constantly growing Quest system allows Overseers to send Dwellers out into the Wasteland to abandoned buildings, decrepit Vaults, and mysterious caves to uncover legendary loot and face off against enemies like Radscorpions, Ghouls, and powerful bosses.

As an Xbox Play Anywhere title, player progress is retained across both Xbox One and Windows 10, meaning users can switch seamlessly between platforms and pick up where they left off, bringing all their saves, progress, and Achievements with them. The game has also been fully adapted to work with the Xbox One controller, so players can experience Vault life bigger and better, right from their TV.

Players can download Fallout Shelter for Xbox One and Windows 10 from the Xbox Store or Windows Store next Tuesday, February 7.

I have new update. It's much faster, like WAY faster.

Great having first 8 pins in guide too, even going to store is instant. Games seem to boot faster. (Not load faster) but transitioning from one game to another is instant, used to cause shudder before.

The new achievement tracker works better than I had expected. I had been concerned it would get in the way, but that's no issue thanks to being able to choose where it sits on the screen, and adjusting the transparency.

Going to take a while to get used to having three button presses to get to the Home screen, instead of one, but it's obviously much better having the guide only one press away.
