Hope it fixes the weird issue I’m having with the Game Pass app on my Xbox.

With the new Quick Resume features in the future update, here's how the list of games you've currently got in Quick Resume looks:

It's presented as a group, so you can also display it on your home screen if you like:

There's another feature coming to allow you to pin specific games in Quick Resume, so they don't get moved out of Quick Resume when you load up other games:

That’d be great if I could get more than 50mbps through my wired connection. But i doubt that’s possible when I’m on “up to 54mbps” or whatever BT Halo 2 grants me!

Just updating mine now, can you stop a game from using QR? It’s just that F1 2020 never works with QR (often loads up and freezes) so having the option to just load it from fresh each time would be good.

If you quit the game when you've finished playing, it won't be in Quick Resume (on the game tile select 'More options' > 'Quit')

Is that since the update? As that’s what I was doing beforehand with titles (F1 2020 included) that didn’t really play well with QR.

Just to be clear: the QR stuff isn’t in the April update. It’s for the Alpha Insider testers, so it will come to the public in a later update.

Tried the suspend game thing while downloading a game update. Went from 28 to 42Mb/s (the most I get at this time of day), so that’s a nice enough feature.

For a freebie on GWG, I quite like Hard Corps: Uprising.

A sort of Contra style shooty platformer type game, quite a nice thing to have sat on the dashboard for a quick arcade style blast every now and again.

More than just Contra style - it's the thirteenth game in the series.

Haha, I've made a right plum of myself there!

Still. It's good.
