I just got an Xbox Series S second hand for £150 , I spend my life going between my Dad's and my other halfs place so now the Series X can live at one house and the S at another so I'm always within arms length of some Microsoft goodness.

...so I'm always within arms length of some Microsoft goodness.

You're dual-wielding Xbox's, kerr!

Why not when it's a good price plus the little S is so cute

I know times are tough, but do they really need money that badly?

I really hope Orcs Must Die 3 is Day One Gamepass as I've really enjoyed the series.

It's corny but massive fun.

Don't think it will be. It's up for pre-order, and they don't tend to do that if a game is going straight into GP.

It's 50/50 really, like, I don't think The Ascent has a Gamepass stamp on it yet... and you can pre-order it.

Yeah, there are some exceptions, but... The Ascent has "Install - Included with Game Pass" on it.

Still a 2021 release.

Checked my friends list at an inopportune moment.

It’s more of a request than a straight-up demand. Up to you.

Either way, surely it doesn't count?

And some shitbag has immediately taken advantage of that today to give it a 1-star review.

(Thanks for the heads-up.)

Question for the room.

If I buy the (EU) Version of a game from cdkeys will it work on my Xbox, or do I really have to pay extra for the (UK) Version?

Surely they're the same version?

Oddly I have to pay Extra for the EU version, I'm pretty sure the UK ones won't work here (rep of Ireland) but the EU ones should work in the UK?

[LewisD]

Cheers photek, I'll try it on something cheap first just to be sure

I can't remember what game I was looking for now, but the UK version was £10.99 and the EU Version was £7.99.

Worldwide, EU and UK will work on en-GB Xbox

CD Keys should filter out the regions that will not work for you without VPNs. Try searching "brazil" on CD Keys and you will get a warning asking if you want to view products outside of your set region.

Just had an email from Sony. Their new range of speakers is called the X-Series, and it looks like this.
