I always enjoy how contemporary GRcade humour is. Next, a man will be asking the audience if they have seen his washboard.

Console and controller updated, hopefully that’ll sort the rare connection issue with the controller when its been on charge, also hopefully they’ll have added a notification as to when it’s actually fully charged as well.

Edit, Game Pass app still crashing to a black screen unless I select show all games, no idea what I can do to solve it really.

Updated my XSX and controller, but something is weird now.
Prey still plays perfectly, 60fps and that, but the controller goes absolutely strawberry floating haywire in the menus, like the sensitivity is set to 1000 and the menus themselves are all juddery and lagging.

:(

Have you tried fully rebooting the game (and console) since updating the it and the controller?

I nearly pooed myself with excitement a moment ago.
I thought the Xbox store had glitched to give away free controllers for a second - but it didn't allow me to add any to the basket :(

Probably using MS IP for mobile games in China. But they are branching out with a AAA UE5 shooter in development.

Got the 360 version of mgs hd collection for £6. Runs so well on series x and even looks 4k.

So they've got another of those 10,000G for 10,000 reward points deals on at the moment, and they're advertising the "achievement enthusiast sale" in the description for it in the rewards app. But there's a whole bunch of 360 games in the sale, while the small print only mentions gaining achievements on Xbox One and Series X|S games. Has anyone noticed if 360 achievements count towards the tally or are they hoping that people don't read the small print and buy games that won't actually help them reach the target? :slol:

Update: We can confirm that Gamerscore earned in Windows 10 and backwards and non-backwards compatible Xbox 360 games counts towards the overall total despite the punchcard stating that only achievements unlocked in Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S games are eligible.

Can’t confirm it myself, because for some reason I’ve not been given the offer.

360 games have worked for me in the past. I think the requirement might be 360 games that can run on X1 though. I can't confirm if non BC games will work as I'm not sure if I've played those during this type of promo

Really like this most recent round of enhancements to the UI. It's devestating when you boot up a game and can see straight away that it doesn not support QR though. One weak link in your game rotation impacts the whole benefit of QR substantially.

But an excellent feature nonetheless. It is also ridiculously quick now for the couple of games i used it with last night.

The Series X boots up muy rapido, but oddly it takes quite a long time to close down. It takes a few minutes for my tv to display its ‘no signal’ pictures.
It’s not just mine, is it? It’s on energy saving, not instant on.
