Yeah it sounds like they have no plans to release Halo 5 on PC which is a shame from a completionist perspective even if it is meant to be a bit shite!

Horizon is new to me as I didn’t own an xbox one and think i sold my 360 before the original was released. My favourite series after the pgr series. Such a shame you can’t play the 4 pgr games on the series x, even the original disks working natively will do me.

Microsoft are very keen on increasing the backwards compatibility, so it may well happen.

PGR won't happen, it's to do with licensing of cars, music, even some of the real world locations will have timed trade marks.

Digitally no chance, but how about a patch to enable the disk version or does that need the digital download to be available, like I found out with The Witcher 2, which only requires one disk and plays brilliantly.

6.86gb update for Horizon 4 this evening. Any idea what it's for?

Bollocks, looks like the update has bricked the game for lots of people.

Won't start the game beyond the opening splash screen:

Edit: Yep! It won't start the game after the update now!
I wanted to play it tonight :cry:

I discovered that yesterday. Wanted to get a picture of my Mini to use in my new montage (which you can see part of below), and had to wait for the update to finish. Then couldn't get on it after a few tries and a restart of the Xbox. Fortunately, I found a good picture of that Mini I'd taken an age ago.

Hope Playground are working on a fix. Had hoped to get on it for a serious spin this weekend. I'm sure they will.

Question..... I will soon be taking delivery of my first new laptop in years. As a GPU subscriber who's played FH4 on XSX, will my save be available to carry on from where I left it off when I fire this up on the laptop? Or are the saves separate?

Has this been fixed yet? They really need to test these games before releasing updates. Something like this is a bit ridiculous and just shows no one checked it on the series x!

Nothing as of yet. Hopefully it's not going to take too much longer.

Any game tagged as Play Anywhere will have cross saves, so you're good to pick up where you left off.

Weird... I've been playing a few different nights this week and haven't had any problems
